Question Is it possible to connect more than two iphones via bluetooth?

Hi all,

I am just wondering if it is possible to connect more than two iphones/ipads via bluetooth? In all examples they are using the GKPeerPickerController, and they only implemented a two player game. If yes does anybody have an idea how to realize this?

Thank you very much in advance

I dont think you'll be able to use the GKPeerPickerController if you want to connect more than 2 devices.

It is definitely possible to do though, i've seen it done in the RockBand game.

Thank you very much for your answer. I also have my doubts about creating a bluetooth connection with more than two devices by using the GKPeerPickerController.
The application you mentioned in your post, where can I find it? I had already searched with google but it the result didn't match.

ROCK BAND for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store


however to connect multiple iphone you can look at Loading…

Code:
Note: The maximum size of a client-server game is 16 players.
basically, 1 server, X clients.
