iPod game enthusiasts have a look at Apple's latest game title for the iPod, Pole Position: Remix. A modern remake of the '80s retro classic Pole Position, this iPod incarnation looks great and is ideally suited to the iPod's clickwheel control mechanism.Pole Position: Remix brings the 1980s arcade classic to the iPod with all of the features you remember, including a cockpit view of the action, racing speeds in excess of 200 MPH, oil slicks that make you lose control, and collisions that produce wheel-bouncing explosions. A new track, Misaki Point, joins four existing ones: Namco, Speedway, Wonder, and Seaside.
During a race, complete each lap within the time limit to earn extra seconds, with your final score based on the distance you traveled and the number of rival cars you passed. Crashes take time off the clock, so be careful. The faster you finish the race, the higher you'll place. Do well and you’ll unlock reversed and mirrored versions of the tracks, as well as graphical themes based on other classic Namco games, including PAC-MAN, Galaga and Dig-Dug. The Retro and Neopolis themes even change the environment. Pole Position: Remix is compatible with the 3G iPod Nano, the 5G iPod, and the iPod classic.
