I read the headline as saying that Rage (PC) and Rage HD (iOS) were free.
Reading the article then rewarded me with my favorite thing: disappointment.

At least they're not posting this AFTER the fact.
I found out about it this morning and sent reported it to Joystiq as a tip.
So… you're welcome!
Also, I thought they gave credit to tipsters in their articles?

Off-topic, but based on the Joystiq homepage, it looks like someone broke the Internet :'(
(or am I the only one who sees this?)

I don't know if this is the place to say this but I have been thinking about this a long time : I think rage is going to suck aka be a bad game I don't know why but I have a feeling just like I hated doom 3 but alas only my opinion.

@type2red Perhaps you just don't like games by id? Judging by your grammar though, it's unlikely you played DOOM 2 or DOOM or Quake the first time they came around.

@type2red I think it will be bad fir two reason: 1. ID is known for their engine most of all, but nowadays ever shooter looks the same if not better them Rage. They can't rely on graphics to sell. 2. They got rid of traditional multiplayer.. That was one of my faveruit things from their past games but now it's a racing/combat game. Rage looks like a blast to play in deathmatch but noooo.

Late or not, I don't care. Free is good. Thanks for reporting it Joystiq!

I was just in the app store. It didn't even seem compelling enough to even download for free. Reminds me of dozens of other games. Does anything thing this game is good?

@britboyj27 what does my grammer have to do with playing doom or quake which by the way I have played all of them on release as original purchased software not emulation, I just don't like static A.I. with a redundant control scheme and usually id's games are showcasing a new game engine to market towards developers now I will tell you what you want to hear and that is that no I'm not a 27 year old white male from the suburbs but I do know a thing or 2 about classic PC games especially FPS GAMES but none of that matters anyway because I'm entitled to my opinion.

I think his point was more about punctuation. You might try periods at the end of your sentences, or even capitalizing now and then.
Don't expect people to read a run-on with no punctuation, not to mention questionable grammar. Hey, no one is perfect but come on man, make an effort.

They're making an app over 5 dollars free?! Sold!

Speaking of free, Zenonia 3 is free right now too.

Man, the iPhone/iPad as a platform really spoils you. Half the games I have are full games that were either discounted to free for some short time period.

I wouldn't say "spoils" so much as "causes you to rationalize."

Free is the only price worth paying for this stupid tech demo. Its just another "Hey look we can put an engine on the iPhone you guys" thing.

But of course, it's not available in New Zealand. At all, let alone free. Screw this country.

Well, I wanted to buy this for $1 but even then it's just an on rails shooter with 4 levels or something. Not exactly deep. It's just too bad I owe Apple money for overspending on my credit card! I would have enjoyed this for free.

@TCJJ Just make a US itunes account. You can make a free account so you dont have to put credit card details.
