I'm happy if people were waiting for it to come to WP7 in order to switch, but I personally wasn't too impressed with the game.
It's pretty boring and definitely repetitive. The best redeeming quality is how many levels are included. (which is quite a few)

not released yet, but expecting

Yea.
The funnest thing about the game is the Sound Effects (the birds cheering, so CUTE!!!). Boring game, though, IMO. By the time I got to the boomerang birds, I was more than ready to uninstall it.
If there's anything I hate in a game, it's monotanous repetition.

I was done after 30 minutes -_-
actually its not that great of a game. I was bored with it pretty fast

I personally don't need an RPG on my phone to kill some time.. Angry birds is a perfectly good time killer game..

It's funny how many people post to say they don't like it. I think the download numbers speak for themselves... Two OS' have had MAJOR success, I don't think Windows Phone 7 will be any different.. . Great thing is, if you don't prefer it, it was free, and you can remove it.
Me personally, repetitive or not, it's a great time killer while sitting in the waiting room at the dr...
Thank You Rovio!

Lack of footy management games

It seems that the desire has the ability to run really decent games and yet football management games especially, are few and far between. There seems to be a demand for them but there just are not any decent ones out there. Ive tried MYFC, and RF2009 Manager but they are quite weak. The Android market has the potential to be as big, if not bigger than Apple but the choice of games in select areas are virtually non existent. I know everyone does not want the same thing but while I enjoy games that are arcade play, the simulation side is selective to say the least. Taking away a decent football management game, what about a horse racing game - nothing, a decent flight sim game - nothing. I know at the end of the day the Desire is a phone, but while cartoony games are enjoyable, some of us like something more in depth. It's just frustrating at the moment and I do appreciate there are developers working hard to bring us games and we, as an Android community, are grateful. I would just like to see a bit more for us strategists Take nothing away though, I think the Desire is an amazing phone and the market is growing at a tremdous speed so its all looking good.

You may be pleased to know that on the flight simulator front, x-plane for Android is on the verge of being released.
I have e-mailed the developer but cannot pin them to an exact release date but video demos of this are readily available if you google it.
It looks AWESOME!!
Thanks bobsie41, that's what I'm talking about. Showing the phone off to what it can play both visually and in depth. It really looks amazing, can't wait for that to be released If you can show me a football management game in that depth of capacity then I will be happy

im an SGS user but im in the camp of wanting a decent manager game for android, i would love somthing like an old CM game (i.e. 01/02) to be playable with a decent update.
ive been trying to find old ps1 games to run on psx4droid but the text on psx4droid always seems to be an issue so i cant get any of them to run well.
i think ill look into GBA and even Genesis/Snes if i have to just to pass the wait until we get somthing decent.

Really? Full House Poker?

I mean I understand that it's to be released on both the Xbox and WP7 at the same time but really? That's it? I am thoroughly disappointed this time. Xbox has dug through mounds of **** just to make a name for itself and what has Windows Phone 7 shown in that department? I mean there's ilomilo and then theres iphone clones. It's so sad to see a first rate OS by a corporate giant turned into a third rate gaming platforms because they'd rather spend a huge budget on advertising what the phone can currently do rather than making that Xbox live tile appeal to a plethora of users who had hope in their hearts when they saw Xbox live integration and watched it be shat on with garbage like... well... half the stuff on the Xbox live WP7 marketplace. It's cool that you're getting the most popular iphone clone and a game I played on my beat up sega dreamcast a decade ago but really, where's the innovation?
I think it might be time to change your siggy...
I don't have an xbox, so I don't care so much about the integration, but I'm finding way more games I like on my phone right now than on android or winmo.
Currently working on twin blades, AC, I dig it, and The Harvest. Also play majong(sp) tiles and a couple rounds of spades as well.

Ah, R.I.P. Twin Blades. It was a great game unfortunately I've since swapped memory cards coincidentally on the day it vanished from the market and alas I am left without one of the defining games on the platform. I Dig It I havent really visited in some time due to the inability to save (not sure if that's still present), The Harvest has somewhat annoying controls, a virtual joystick makes more sense than a point and click diablo-esque phone game in my opinion, and AC has been on multiple other platforms as well as the other two games though perhaps not the exact same program. The astounding part though is regardless of the faults it's still the best. It's just that they've given us an amazing game or two (The Harvest really is amazing the controls just aren't for me) and then since have lacked innovation greatly. Where I thought they were going to try and stand alone it now looks like they're trying to be a "me too" platform. I did recieve an email from someone regarding a mobile version of Torchlight though and though they couldn't confirm or deny they did tell me it was an option they were exploring. That would be amazing as that game only takes like what? 140 megs on the xbox? Dull it down a bit and it could be a game changer for WP7.

I know there are several big titles slated for first week in april. I agree they could do more, and I think they will. MS, if nothing else, is willing to throw money at devs.
So what's next on your list of complaint...

always such informative and insightful posts. They add a lot to the conversation.
I'm starting to agree with you about all the new releases. Puzzle games have their place (especially on a mobile phone platform), but without more action titles, it makes it seem like XBox live is not really a serious reason for someone to get a WP7 as Microsoft would like people to think.
That said, I have actually really, really enjoyed the XBox Live games. I used WinMo and Android for a long time before WP7 and never really got into gaming on either platform but for some reason, I just started playing games on WP7 a lot. I don't have an XBox so the integration with XBox is not something I really care about. I like the achievements. It gives me something to play for.
The April releases will keep me satisfied for a while, but in my opinion, they need a lot more releases like those in April, not just every now and then.
edit: oh yeah, an afterthought... maybe chill out on the tower defense games. 1 is enough on the entire platform. It seems like every other game on the Marketplace is a freakin tower defense game. Not a big fan.
I guess you guys haven't seen the poker commercial on xbox live then? Its quite stupid.
You can play the game on both your console and phone.
Spoiler alert; its not the way you think it is. Integration my ass.

SPORTS GAMES! WTF!
Is there a single sports game on this platform? XBox may not have many either....but some sports games (i.e. one button swing type games) are made for mobile.
WP7 is lacking sports games something fierce.

How do y'all like WP7? I'm still on WinMo because Garmin Mobile XT is awesome, particularly where there is no cellular coverage. Also, I do not own a laptop and do a lot of long emails on my phone when I'm not at home with my 70lb desktop and I'm irritated that I can't get a WP7 device with the exact same keyboard as my Rhodium and at least the latest Qualcomm 45nm goodness in it complete with Adreno 205, much less the upcoming dual Cortex A8 with independent clock speed and CPU voltage and Adreno 220. Why in the Sam Hill did M$ decide that only 65nm OG Snapdragon SoC's were going to go into WP7 devices?
I read a few reviews of the Euro-spec 7 Pro and it seems that HTC used a crappy LCD but not as crappy as the HD7's, and they somehow messed up the chassis of the Rhodium and the keyboard. I like that I can get giant batteries for these things and that unibody sh*t jus doesn't float my boat. I guess I'm just pissed that WP7 is locked to 65nm Snapdragon and irritated with HTC for messing with the landscape qwerty slider chassis and keyboard that they perfected with the Rhodium.

wow is this really gonna turn into a thread bashing the PS3? Its the only system I have and I like it the best, its unfortunate that the hack happened but what can you do? Its getting fixed now and hopefully it wont happen again. 360, PS3, IOS, Windows Phone are all great in their own ways, apparently none of you can understand that though as you have to bash whatever you dont have or like.

Most of the information leaked was old information and the brunt of the stuff that mattered was for Japanese people.
Not that it matters.
I think PS3 owners are more likely to accept an outtage because many/most of them don't pay for Online Play - contrary to XBL. If XBL goes down everyone that plays online is watching their money trickle away (Time is money, as they say).
I think the biggest hit Sony will take will come from the SOE MMORPG division. All of their games went down for 2-3 weeks and I have no doubt a lot of people will just play another game because 3 weeks in an MMORPG is an eternity. It can kill guilds and demoralize the playerbase, things like that...
That being said, the XB360 desperately needs a browser, USB Keyboard/Mouse Support, and perhaps even some version of a Flash/Flash Lite player that works decently, along with decent DLNA and the ability to load media onto the HD instead of just streaming it from WMC. I think the PS3 will take a hit but it will still sell decently because it is infinitely more flexible than teh XB360.
I personally got the 360 because it tends to have better Role Playing Games on it than the PS3 - which seems better for people who really like FPS Shooters and stuff like that...
@ OP: Why would you buy an HD7 for Android? The Android sets that were out when the HD7 released were monumentally better from a hardware standpoint with much better screens and GPUs, among other things (FFC, etc.). I'll never understand the logic of getting a WP7 handset and then coming here to cry because some random unsupported OS hasn't been ported to it yet... Could have done yourself a favor and gotten an HD2 for cheaper, IMO. It's literally the same hardware with a better build and different buttons... For shame

I disagree, this whole gen is all about shooters, shooter and more shooters, its ridiculous! Thats all that sells nowadays...and I think the 360 is usually the one that people associate with shooters for some reason. Maybe because Halo and Gears of war.
Either way Im tired of shooters...and I hate COD...
And you don't think RPGs like Fable, Dragon Age, Final Fantasy, and Elder's Scrolls sell, among other things (Drivers, Action/Adventure, etc.)?
Sorry, does not compute
No one is forcing you to play shooters. There are hundreds of games on either platform to choose from. You don't have to be at the mercy of a few online game reviewers...
I think the PS3 controller is so superior to the XB360s for FPS and Drivers that if I was into those types of games I wouldn't have even considered an XB360... I got the XB because it was cheaper at a higher HD size (in addition to reasons stated above), too bad that HD is largely useless compared to a PS3...
And yea, those exclusives probably have a lot to do with it
Obvious waste of a thread is obvious..

Microsoft Annouces 14 new games for Xbox live and I want to shoot myself in the face.

Oher than the non live titles made by independant developers I am starting to think this phone will never make it past the casual gaming.
“Beards & Beaks: Cave Area”
“Bug Village”
“Burn the Rope”
“Chickens Can’t Fly”
“Collapse!”
“Gravity Guy”
“Farm Frenzy 2”
“Fight Game Rivals”
“IonballEX”
“Kinectimals Mobile”
“Mush” .
“Orbital”
“TextTwist 2”
“Toy Soldiers Boot Camp”
Seriously...
a phone is perfect for casual gaming. I did buy "The Harvest" and while it was excellent it wasn;'t nearly as enjoyable for quick plays when you have free time etc
Halo. Forza 4 (perfect for WP7, even downloading "ghost" cars to race against to climb the leaderboards). MIA. Missed opportunity.
Ya Know when they were hyping up "The Harvest" and talking about how games like this were an display of what windows mobile could do I should have known it was a trap.

This just looks like some of the new titles announced at the Gamescom event so i wouldnt take it as the difinitive list, specially seeing as there were over 60+ new XBL games for WP7 announced at the event. http://www.bestwp7games.com/
Maybe MS still need to attract the attention of the major gamehouses that furnish the other platforms with the titles i think you would like to see. Once the mango update is officially released and revenue begins to flow i'm sure the better titles will come.
Have patience though, MS has the Xbox platform and all of the software contacts it needs to make this work, they wouldnt purposefully make WP7 crappy imho.
In the meantime there are some top titles in the marketplace already (sonic, harvest, PES etc...) and i'm sooo looking forward to Toy Soldiers.

Meh, on the phone I want games that I can take up and play for a few minues when I'm waiting for a bus or something like that, games that is fast to get into and that I can quit anytime.
For hardcore gaming a have a PC.

You're joking right? You want to play these on a phone? The only hardcore game I would try on a phone is a RTS. That said, even on the casual front WP7 is doing poorly. The OS was announced 18 months ago and released 10 months ago and Xbox Live is still a joke. They should have just called it Games for WP and added the Live name in a year or two because as it is now it's doing the brand a disservice.
Oh by the way, there's no game release next week.

You gotta be kidding me.. such games are already their for android.. people say that: 'with an android phone with you, you dont need to buy those sony handhelds.. '
here is one example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZaMNMBfgr8&feature=fvsr
I am just giving it more time till mango .. if we continue to see current list of sub-par games like 'tic tac toe' and 'tap here to kill an ant and get achievements'.. than unfortunately i will make that switch by June. Because it is not an enterprise phone either, so if it cant help me in work than at least compensate that by bringing in serious entertainment.
The OP has a valid gripe. The horsepower is there and the talent is there. These franchises can translate to the phone. I play FIFA and NBA Jam and FPS games on my iPod touch and iphone. Why can't my Focus do the same?

I love my wp7!

Just to detract from all the hater posts on here lately, I just wanted to say that I just came onboard from android and, aside from the lack of good games, I really do love my wp7.
I have been extremely happy so far!
Which phone did you go with?
I played with the HTC Surround (what was HTC thinking?) with Mango on it and it was nice. Can't wait til I get one.
I traded my HTC incredible s for an lg quantum and haven't looked back!
nice and welcome! have had my focus for over a year now, and enjoy it every day I've had. which is pretty remarkable since people get bored of phones so quickly.

Another happy WP7 user. All it takes is for people to use one in a context of owning it and they will be hooked. By the way, there are some excellent games. You just have to browse through them. You can try many of them that are paid. I have a large selection in my collection and can list them for you if you need.

I would appreciate that!
What i miss the most is a good first person shooter
I can live with the lack of games though, everything else makes it totally worthwhile imo..
Never any lag, and I don't feel like I need to constantly flash or tweak my device.
Makes me much more productive in other areas of my life hahah

A FPS will come eventually. But the closest right now is The Harvest or Assassin's Creed. There's a new one I just saw called Fusion: Sentient that looks promising.

I've had my HTC trophy since it came out in the spring/summer on vzw. i had a droid x before, and I don't miss android. Every month I would have to flash my phone so it would be fast again. Not needed with wp7. I love the OS, but the phone could have better specs.

Welcome on board!
I would recommend pro evo soccer but then I guess football isn't everyone's taste would be good to see some other sports games, I think baseball could cross to phone really well and cricket. Could also do American football and rugby in a similar way to pes could use swipe controls for kicks and scrums etc to add extra elements.
Ps welcome onboard I to came from android and love it. Android still has a place in my heart but more in tablets now. =)
+1 for Flowerz.
It is a challenging game if you put your time in it

It can be. I usually play to about the 10th level and then restart. I like it up to the 10th level. After that it becomes a pain and un-fun.
Finally a thread without bad karma getting quite rare now...
And welcome to WP7 Apps that I recommend:
AccuWeather - has the best LiveTile for weather right now
kik/whatsapp
weave - good news app
LazyTube - best youtube app
TuneIn Radio - best radio app with background streaming
Appflow - quite a must have
CocktailFlow - very nice app for making cocktails
imdb - for movies, obviously
for games:
Arcane's TD Free
Chicken Story Plus
Broken Wing Plus
Bobble Biker
FastBall 2
Jewel³
Krashlander Free
Monster Stack
Square Off Free - very nice one
Pulse, best news app ever. Best live tiles too.
Lazytube is ok.
I can't recommend a game yet.

Which phone did you go with?
I played with the HTC Surround (what was HTC thinking?) with Mango on it and it was nice. Can't wait til I get one.

Please reply via PM as I don't want to be accused of derailing the thread but are you actually saying you don't own a WP7? Because that would explain some things...

Pulse has a live tile? I know it has background updates.
I've just spent 11 hours on fusion: sentinels. It is everything a cellphone game should be and its integration with my 360 is amazing. Highly recommended.
