New iPod Game 'iQuiz' Coming

[MacRumors]

Electronista notes that some eagle-eyed French iTunes users have spotted the brief appearance of a new iPod game dubbed "iQuiz" on the iTunes Store.

"Test your entertainment knowledge with iQuiz, a timed question-and-answer game for your iPod," it reads. "Test your knowledge of the songs, artists and albums present on your iPod and take on the challenges of questions about movies, music and television. Create your own personalized Trivia Packs and play those created by others."

Apple currently includes a more basic quiz game with its iPod and iPod Nanos.

That could be really fun.

 

[brooker]

ooooh... pretty pictures for the game we all already have! I pay! I pay!

...


... NOT!

 

[Thataboy]

Cute. But this makes me think that an ideal game for the iPod would be You Don't Know Jack.

 

[darwen]

yeah, I hope this is not just a rehash of the game already on the iPod.

 

[mikeinternet]

this should be free

 

[viperguy]

Sounds like the same game that comes with my ipod...
not appealing to me at all

 

[mainstreetmark]

Insert my standard argument for 'open up the development platform to everyone'

 

[FreeState]

Now if I could get this for my AppleTV I'd have a great casual party game!

 

[applemax]

Is it on the ipod already? do you mean the music quiz?

 

[Mgkwho]

Yes, he means music quiz.

[twoodcc]

this should be free

yeah, that would be nice.

the game sounds ok i guess.

 

[hob]

games.

how about an operating system, please?

"Create your own personalized Trivia Packs and play those created by others."

People will go NUTS over that. Play/make/share trivia quizzes on technology, TV shows, music, movies... people love that kind of thing.

 

[Flowbee]

Awesome. I love when people catch little leaks like this. Looks like fun.

 

[pederg]

Now if I could get this for my AppleTV I'd have a great casual party game!

that would be awesome.. so the trivia game that can be shared would be like iMixes just with questions on the itunes music store i guess..

 

[guzhogi]

games.

how about an operating system, please?

You can get Linux for iPod. Just Google iPod and linux

 

[Sonofhaig]

Real Time Version

I'd love to see a real time version that can be played through itunes, and apple TV.

edit: okay, so others think this would be a great idea too...... lets get on it apple.

Somehow I don't think that's what he meant. ahem...Tiger.

 

[mrgreen4242]

I don't understand why people seem to think this is Music Quiz with graphics... it seems fairly obvious it's a quiz game with questions and answers, not "name that tune".

Sounds like fun, especially if the create your own question packs thing is done well - I can see a pack for every little internet niche out there being posted within days...

 

[iamcrazyed]

Somehow I don't think that's what he meant. ahem...Tiger.

No, that's not it either. ahem... Leopard?

*sob*


I'm gonna go cry in the corner. Come get me when October rolls around.

 

[furious]

I can not believe a new iPod game is front page news. Are we that staved for news that we will settle for this as news? It is great news. Just not front page news.

I think he meant "I don't want no stinking ipod games, give me leopard"

lol

Apple is giving us a game to keep us occupied while we wait for an operating system and a phone.

This is good people! Very thoughtful. I hope they charge us a lot for it.

 

[Clive At Five]

*applause*....?

NOT.

While it's nice that Apple's iPod division is thinking of ways to enhance our user-experience, there are other things they could be doing... like developing a multi-touch-wide-screen iPod.

Please.

There I asked nicely, now give it. My iPod died on Sunday and I need a new one.

R.I.P., ClivePod...
