afaik, carmack is working on a Haskell implementation for wolfenstein 3D. this might have been his excuse to start that project.

there is a really primative FPS shooter up on the haskell wiki, but its really not well structured.

To be fair, it is the world's first 3D FPS written using a functional reactive programming style. 8 years ago. By one guy who was learning Haskell. In 8 weeks.
