"This is the perfect setup for a quintessential first person shooter game play experience — you pick your targets, aim your shots, time your reloads, dodge the bad guys, and try and make it through to the end of the level with a better score than last time. Beyond basic survival, there are pickups, head shots, and hit streak multipliers to add more options to the gameplay, and there is a broad range of skill levels available from keep-hitting-fire-and-you-should-make-it to almost-impossible." -JC

Sure enough, part 15 should prevent this app from ever getting to the public (see http://photos.appleinsider.com/App%20Store%20Review%20Guidel... ). I doubt Apple has the eggs to tell Carmack no. Time to see if Jobs' moral views outweigh his greed. (edit: BTW, I think his greed will win)
Apps portraying realistic images of people or animals being killed or maimed, shot, stabbed, tortured or injured will be rejected
Apps that depict violence or abuse of children will be rejected
"Enemies" within the context of a game cannot solely target a specific race, culture, a real government or corporation, or any other real entity
Apps involving realistic depictions of weapons in such a way as to encourage illegal or reckless use of such weapons will be rejected
Apps that include games of Russian roulette will be rejected
How would those guidelines apply to someone's awesome first person shooter?
Maybe the "reckless use of weapons" part. But that's not the spirit of the law --- the spirit was likely to prevent people from e.g. making an app that gives a step-by-step photographic guide to creating a pipe bomb, or something of that sort.
