The new
Firefighter 360 for the iPhone 3GS lets you experience the thrill of seeing everything around you burst into flames, without all that pesky
heat and
death. The augmented reality game, developed by Presselite, superimposes fires -- and virtual victims -- over the iPhone camera's view of the world, with flames generated in every direction, spreading and multiplying. And it's up to you, as an inexplicably cel-shaded fireman, to douse the flames and rescue the citizens.
Firefighter 360 was added to the App Store November 10, at a price of .99. Seriously, why is he cel-shaded? He's in
the real world. See a video demonstration of the game after the break.

I don't want to set the world on fire.

My world's on fire, how 'bout yours?
Alex McKee @ Nov 13th 2009 8:01AM
That's the way I like it and I never get bored.

Oh shit that's crazy

So what happens when you point it at a real fire? Does the fire catch fire?

Yo dog I heard you like fire, so we put some fire on your fire so it can burn while it burns.

Of course the other firefighter is just sitting there watching, damn them unions!

Can you use that highly pressurized hose to blast old ladies into burning blazes?
If so, I will further lament the existence of my non S iPhone.

The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.

Bloodhound Gang or Coal Chamber?

Bloodhound Gang borrowed those lyrics from an old Rancid song.

Rock Master Scott & the Dynamic Three!

Could lead to a huge lack of motivation when some real things you don't like catch on fire. Like, anywhere in your office.
butaneko @ Nov 13th 2009 9:11AM
I don't want this. I just want a game where I can start a flame in your heart.

GREAT! Just Great, videogames you HAVE to play in parking lots!

The reality doesn't seem augmented at all. He uses the touchscreen to move towards or away from an in-game object while the "reality" appears to be nothing more than a background image.
JeezWhiz87 @ Nov 13th 2009 11:41AM
Come on baby light my fire......
Giroro @ Nov 13th 2009 12:07PM
We didn't start the fire . . .
JeezWhiz87 @ Nov 13th 2009 2:11PM
iFell in to a burning ring of fire...
Sosas_gurl21 @ Nov 13th 2009 2:35PM
For 99 cents this pretty cool.
Soliduck @ Nov 13th 2009 11:12PM
Finally! All those World of Warcraft hours learning how to not stand in the fire have payed off.
