Playing your iPhone/iTouch through your car speakers

Posted on | April 1, 2009 | No Comments

I don’t get to game as often as I’d like.  Therefore, I’m getting very much into casual gaming, especially on my iPod Touch.  The other day, I took my brother-in-law to the chiropractor after our workout at the gym.  This gave me 15 minutes to play a game.  I’m currently stuck on FieldRunners.

Me defending my tower...poorly. LOL

As I got ready to play, I remember that I had one of those radio transmitters for my traditional iPod.  I like long road trips and love to zone out to the music.  The Ford Escape, surprisingly, has a good sound system in it, including a subwoofer.

After a quick setup, I was feeling my blasts vs hearing them squeak outta the device speakers.  I was getting very into it until I had that “Someone is watching me” feeling.  I look up and sure enough, one of the patients had stopped to wonder why there was a war going on inside my car.  The windows were down (I’m in Arizona) and I think the entire parking lot was sharing my gaming experience.  :)

We’ll need to get Subatomic Studios out to our next 360|iDev to get the lowdown on the behind-the-scenes.  If you’ve had a similar experience, do tell so I don’t feel like the only total geek.
