Games on Artemis

I happen to travel a lot, and often end up checking the same stuff over and over again on the net.
And i am getting sick and tired of Solitaire
Does anyone know of a fun game, wich doesnt get old to quickly? (i dont mind paying for a really good game, but freeware is welcome to)
Also i have been looking for something like a GBA emulator but they are few and far between.
So if anyone knows of a good working Emulator (with sound!) feel free to point me at it
Also, any way to get MSN to work on the Artemis?

What about emulator of GB/GBC - Pocketgnuboy, it's free and has hundreds of games.

Dunno if this helps, but I've had some fun with there:

Bejeweled (and BJ II), Zooma, Another Ball, Go, Backgamon.
Enjoy

Can anyone advise how to play worms world party as there is no d-pad?

Where are the games for these emulators? Haven't found any.
Thanks

I'd probably get into trouble for saying the exact sites, but Google sure does pick up a lot of details and the SCUMMVM program should have some free* games (BASS, etc) on the site.
The only one thats a major issue is the Playstation emulator which is both slow and of course the lack of buttons on the phone. Other than that, the emulators work brilliantly.
*free as in they've been included on cover discs of magazines, etc.

I'll take a look at that PocketGNUboy, thanx!
ScummVM does not seem to have a Windows Mobile 5 version, or does it?
Then there's MSN, did they stop making that for PDA's?

You can use the 2003 version, that works fine.

SuDoKu
I sudoku most times...the games always makes you think differently, even if playing the same game...good for your brain cells.
The version I downloaded....now I cant remember where from is Superdoku - google it.
All the best

anyone?? RE: no d-pad on worms. it's very inconvenient try to use the scroll wheel or the roller ball and you can be precise and u have to keep repeating rather than holding a button.

Not really, i installed that version and my clock dissapeared, i needed to reset my device to get it back :/

I'm not a hard player but I've been looking for a good PPC game for a long time. Got really bored with Solitaire. Tried chess and a few other games. The problem always was that PPC is not a very good platform for complicated games especially if it comes to controls. Recently I found a game that is great. Well - it's not free but kills the time perfectly. It's Virtual Pool Mobile by Celeris. The graphic is cool, fantastic phisics model and very easy control. You can play and play. Many modes to choose. I recomend it.
P.S.
I don't work for them

- Resco Diamonds
- Worms World Party
- Resco Guardians Ultimate Collection

i'm still having no luck playing worms without a d-pad on the orbit. can ANYONE help me?!

The PDA Mill collections are really cool I love PDAMill Gamebox Classics. Has very addictive puzzle games with nice sound and graphics. If you like asian games like Sokoban you can also try PDA Mill Gamebox Asia!
Sky Force 1.1 is another game to recommend. It also plays nicely with the trackball Same with the free Space Invaders you can get from Microsoft if you register for the Win Mobile Newsletter
Have fun.
The lack of a pad is really the only weakness of the Artemis I've found so far but it's not that tragical with games.

Girders... not free but great
http://microsoft.handango.com/Platf...0&productType=2&platformId=2&productId=173733

Some more must have games:
1. Bounty Hunter 2099 - Fantastic pinball!!!!
2. Fishopolis - You must shoot fishes Sound lunatic, but is fantastic in reality. The game uses the camera as a motion detector
3. Age of Empires Gold - You should know what this is and it is very, very good on the PPC...
4. 9 Hole Golf - Cool 3D golf and completely free. Get it from Microsoft.com
5. Need for Speed: High Stakes - Another PC port to the PPC. Plays with the touchscreen...
6. Tomb Raider - Lara in your pocket (tm). Too good to miss if you are into young sexy brunettes

just paid £12 for it looks like its worth it cheers for the tip

Help me from being so bored at work! Post your favorite apps!

I just loaded Schap's WM6 Pro 4.00 Beta 3 ROM (CE 5.2.1933 build 18533.0.7.0) from the forum. I followed the guide, updated the bootloader, the radio, etc. Its great, quite an update from the WM5 that ships with the hermes (8525). BUT, I want more.
I then loaded SNES, with super mario world, and the genesis emulator with sonic the hedgehog, which is great, but the phone buttons are a bit lacking. still it keeps me occupied on my stupid 30 minute break at work that I would happily give up to go home 30 minutes earlier.
So heres the reason i'm posting...
What are your favorite apps? I've tried the flashlight app (cool), the new comm manager (cool), and the new office that comes in the rom. Its all impressive, but i'm hoping theres more stuff to play with out there. I whip out my phone constantly when i'm bored and play with the settings, and change the theme, and just in general see what I can get it to do.
Let me know what apps you like, and preferably put some links up. If you would do me a favor, try to keep discussion about how much you like or dislike someone's posted app. THANKS ALL, and thanks for keeping my brain from nullifying into goo when i'm bored.

My fav pasttime is the Bejeweled game, quite addicting (and I have an addictive personality, which helps, LOL! )
My clients like that along with Texas Holdem, Blackjack and Backgammon.
Of course the MobiTV and Cingular XM Radio's are also nice...

I've seen scores of Games and Apps posted by 100's of members all over the forum. Frankly, I never did like most of the games for some reason. I always wanted something that was action packed, easy to play in terms of controls, fast and snappy. All this and more I found in Tennis Addict by Hexacto / Jamdat. Believe me... it's a highly addictive game. You can't ever put the stylus back into the silo after this
The only other game aside from this that I enjoyed playing was Atlantis Redux 1.4 by Tetraedge. It's a 3D adventure game like Myst.... but much, much, much better. This is really a fantastic game. Great story... very intriguing, very simple controls... you don't need a rocket science degree to navigate through it and it has out of this world graphics.
I've recently started playing Syberia, although I must say I fancy it a lot lesser than Atlatis Redux.
That's what I do on my PPC to keep from getting bored. Oh and ofcourse there is Age of Empired Gold Edition.

For me the favorite past time is Mike Miller's SuperDoku. And trying to find interesting freeware on the net. Right now it is WkTask and QuickMenu 2.7.

HandySwitcher. I would die with out it.
Opera Mini (Java App.... hopefully you know what this is)
PIE+ (Add-on for PIE. Great add-on
Weather Panel (Today screen weather)
Games:
I'm a fan of Insaniquarium, SPB Minesweeper II, Titanic, and Kevtris.
Good on-the-crapper games

How have we got this far in the topic without mentioning
- Worms World Party (best loo game EVER)
- Tomb Raider (make mates jealous)
- Coreplayer 1.1 (encode some Family Guy episodes with PocketDivxEncoder and laugh through your break)
- TCPMP with FLV plugin and www.mobytube.net (trawl YouTube whenever you're bored or need to entertain the kids)
- SPB Arkaball 2 (great Arkanoid game)
- All Mobile Mines (great Minesweeper clone)
- Another World (found in the Xda-Dev FTP, was a big fan of Amiga version & this is a perfect copy)
Think that'll do for now!

Ohhh yeah, Worms World Party! Haven't played that one in a while... really gotta fire that one back up soon.

....
I mainly want to bump this thread but I like:
TCPMP
Vtap - youtube vids made easy
opera mini
MS Live Search w/ voice (for traffic and business listings)
Google Maps

About NFS Undercover working/not working!!!

Ive heard that a lot of people have problems playing NFS Undercover on their phones with different roms(mostly different TF3D)
So bassically theere are 3 versions of the nfs undercover game 1- version for d-pad(can play only with d-pad) 2- version for touch(can be played with d-pad and pressing virtual buttons on screen) 3- version for G-sensor(best version) (can be played with d-pad; touch ; and by tilting your phone with g-sensor)
for WM6.1:
on standart manila(touchflo3d) works all versions 1; 2; 3
on new manila (from rhodium or topaz) works only 1 and 2 version-- but since Touch HD doesnt have d-pad - you need version 2 !!!
for WM6.5--- all versions work no mather touchflo version (Im 98 percent sure)
Cant give you links to free nfs uc but I can give you a link to www.google.com

Dont know why , but i have new manila , Topaz .
i am using onkolog Lite version with WM6.5 .
and i have nfs working , version 3

I have to say I prefer Xtrakt much more then NFS. I tried NFS and was disappointed with the ugly graphics. Xtrakt is much better in this regard, as well as the overall gameplay - and is free.

I agree --- NFS undercover has graphics in the level which my old nokia 5610 could handle!!!! we need something more!!! like XTRAKT

I have new Manila (rom Evo II: Topaz Manila, WM 6.1) and i'm able to run version 3, with accelerometer.

how much ram you have left- when you havent opened any app!!!
I think you have different GDI fron cache or filter cache!!!

Obviously you did not try the last version. Last version of NFS with G-Sensor and landscape support has much better texture and graphics. Try it and tell me what!!

NFS for everyone
Also people with Topaz/Rodium Manila are able to play NFS undercover g-sensor version. You just have to use the "htc addicts ram free tool" which is integrated to most dutty roms. When you configure level 3 and push free ram you can play NFS without issues. The disadvantage is that you have to soft reset your device afterwards since the ram free tool quits the dialer.

cache 8 mb, filter cache 131072 sectors, glyphs cache 128 kb, free ram 44% as now (49% at system start). But the game runs well with accelerometer also with only 25% ram left (just tested opening some apps). Oh: i also have autokill disabled

Freed RAM down to 41% by disabling TouchFlo and still getting 'not enough memory' error.

Which version is that?? i think i have 1.7... something

i purchesed version 3 with gsensor but cant get it in landscape.. any suggestions???? thanks

I'm getting an error saying something like "Insufficient memory to start application" ?
Using Miri's WM6.5 v8.1 ROM; Manila disabled. 'Idle' RAM at 43%.

NFS Undercover+TouchFlo 3D
Hey Guyz, I have observed one thing while playing the NFS Undercover game on HD, if i uncheck the TouchFlo from the Today settings (i.e. no touchflo 3d), then the Undercover game simply does not start....It goes to to the NFS Undercover image page and then it just leaves the screen with black light remaining....If there some sort of correlation between them?
And P.S. to all those who think that this NFS is not looking good on HD; plz make sure you have tested the version with Accelerometer support and have stock ROM- I have completed the game and during all my play time, I have observed only minor lag issues, apart from that, the graphics, etc have been really good (as compared to the sort of games we currently have)
ENJOI !!!!

Corrupted data!
Hi...I got the G-Sensor version of NFS-UC to work on my T-Mo Touch Pro II with stock Asia ROM.
However, I've gotten two occasions of corrupted data resulting in the game being reset & losing all my scores & credits!! I was one step short of completing the game against the Porsche 911 Turbo with my Audi RS3.
Anyone knows how to restore the data & credits?

does anyone found version 3? with a cab. file? thanks allot

Any other ports being done for ppc, as in any other FPS's ?

Quake has been done, but not anything happening with it. Would be great to have a cool FPS besides COD2. Unreal ? sof maybe ?
What FPS would you like converted for ppc ?
Basically a good FPS with multiplayer.

I'm not positive, you you may get a better response over at Development and Hacking

Ok thanks. If a Mod wants to move this thread there that would be ok. I'll leave it in your hands.
I do have dooms, quakes, duke3d and a few others, also heard some very interesting news that Microsoft might be making a official Halo game for windows mobile, i do hope so would be great ! Maybe have proper multiplayer aswell.

[Poll] Your Favorite Games/Fun Apps for Blackstone

first off all, let me state, this is not supposed to become one of those "i want iphone games on my hd" threads and i am aware of the sticky post with the list of compatible games in this forum section, this is merely to collect opinions and information on certain games and fun apps for the blackstone.
please don't forget to state the version of the games for compatibility and possiblly the developer, and where one could buy those games (or in case of freeware, download them). please do not post warez links, i will report them.
since many wvga games these days are targeted at the HD2, some of them might be slow, if so, please mention that.
But now, let's get to the point:
What Games/Fun Apps are you running on your HD?
I currently have:
1. Droplets Free 2.0 (XIM INC), Puzzle game, Version 3.0, from Marketplace, free
2. Love Hurts Free (XIM INC), Arcade, Version 1.3, from Marketplace, free
3. Huff and Puff (Touch Dimensions), Puzzle, Version 1.1, from Marketplace, 1.39eur (runs slowly)
4. Experiment 13 (Southend Interactive), Puzzle/Platform, from somewhere around XDA, free (slow)
5. Xtrakt (Southend Interactive), 3D Racing/Shooting, from XDA, free (a little slow)
6. Godaft (Loffactory), Music, http://www.loffactory.webs.com/, free
7. FreeCell (nandhp), Card Game, Version 1.2, from freewareppc, free
8. BubbleBreaker, Solitaire, Teeter (pre-installed)
I think it is very hard to find decent games for the Blackstone, because while it is slower than the Leo, it also has another big issue, keeping it from being a good gaming device: It doesn't have a hardware keyboard and no multitouch, meaning, controlling classic plattform/action games is nearly impossible. Therefore, innovative game concepts like experiment 13 or huff and puff strike me the most, as they overcome these issues and offer both short time fun while waiting for the bus, as well as long time motivation.
as soon, as there are some answers in, i can maybe add an actuall poll, we'll see, how it works out till then.

hey Chef_Tony ! whether you have a soccer game for the Touch HD ??

Favorite app
My favorite app is morphgear with a overclockt blackstone and a msi bluetooth game pad because of the lack of multitouch and the top 100 best snes roms. Brings back memories

Asphalt 4 , Tower Defence , Heroes of might and Magic PPC version , Assasin's Creed PPC, Cops and Robbers , Asterix and Obelix , Real Soccer 2010 and etc.

3. Real Football 2010 HD v.1.0.0
4. Tower Defence
to be continued...

this game is for who like racing cars

some really good apps here, thanks for the suggestions

i recently installed more great games:
mini golf wacky worlds (it's a little slow, needs overclocking to 32 or 33 to run better)
ShootMe! 2.6: great fun apps, like lightsaber, whip, shaving, slapping...
magic 8 ball
flight commander: very similar to one of the most successful iphone/ android game
and spb online, to play reversi online
