I'm loving my HD7 and the few game titles I have on it, but I want more. I've dug into the marketplace many times but, I was hoping you would recommend the gems you've found.
My Collection so far
Xbox Live
Flight Control
Flowerz
Hexic Rush
ilomilo
Revolution
Tiki Towers
Regular Titles
BowlingXX
Bubble Birds
Bubble Jump
ChicknVixens
Color Flow
Electric Beans
Fast Food
Impossible Game
Impossilbe Shooter
Putt In Golf
Quadra
SkyDiver Classic
Unite
Word Chief
Great game for me:
Pixodus.
Add Meteor Mania or Meteor Storm to it. And Scetch Defense.
The Harvest is fun to me, the graphics are amazing
I like Flowers, Hexic Rush, and Ilomilo too. Chicks'n'Vixens is OK, Color Flow gets old fast, and ElectricBeans was too easy. But they're still on my phone, so I value them to some degree
I've gotten a bit of play time from the following (free) games:
MoveIt
Scrambled Free (I play this a LOT)
Sudoku
Word Tangle Free
Yahpips (Yahtzee game)
The one paid game you don't have listed that I like to play is:
Need for Speed: Undercover
My 3 year old likes the following (free) games:
Dibidogs Chase
Final Approach Lite
Fireworks
Fishing Girl
Ice Ball
Memory Match
Paint Me
Ultra Air Hockey 2

+1. That game is pretty cool. Kinda like a mobile MechWarriors.
If you like puzzle games, Jigsaw Guru and Word Tangle are pretty good fun.
Alphajax is great if you like Scrabble. I especially love the personal statistics; I've never seen that in a mobile Scrabble game.
iBlast Moki... best port out there. Only game better is ilomilo
Been playing a lot of twin blades, I dig it and bubble birds here lately, just downloaded the new mmo game listed on wpcentral, but haven't tried it yet.

Max and the Magic Marker is a MUST have! It's $6.99 but worth every penny.
Impossible Shoota is also really fun, free of charge, and extremely addicting, too.
Check out Bye Bye Brain, a great zombie tower defense game.

I'd ditch Bye Bye Brain... you can play on Normal mode up to horde 50 and then it will finish
Or you can try the Endless mode and it will CRASH at horde 50.
It looks really good but the gameplay is not that varied... only one map, 5 different character units each with 3 upgrades and that's it.
Good for showing off to people but you will get bored of it crashing all the time at level 50
My fav's are TouchMeQuick (free), The Harvest (6.99), Fruit Ninja (2.99), and Solitaire Game Chest (2.99).
Try Impossible Shoota. Mindless but it is fun.

Ilomilo is awesome, haven't stopped playing it since I bought it, am on the secret eggs bit :O)
Need for Speed: Undercover is very good, as is Flowerz (Yay I'm top of the Leaderboard for that one). Chicks 'n' Vixens was enjoyable if a bit short.
Game Chest: Logic Games contains a version of Chess which you can play against your XBox Live friends online, and it is a lot of fun. I think it is the only online multiplayer games in the Marketplace at the moment but I'm sure others will follow soon.
I've been playing against people who don't even own a WP7 phone - they can play in a browser by visiting Xbox.com - the game requests show up there and an identical silverlight version of the game plays within the browser and best of all, it's free for them :O)
Final Approach... just downloaded it and its loads of fun.

er... I tried Fruit Ninja on my Focus and it was running pretty bad. It's around 15fps -ish when fruit appears.
Not sure if it's MS gamestudio ported it badly or just my individual problem

I use it on Omnia 7, and it is very fluent. It seems that it's your individual problem... Have you tried un- and reinstall?
Man I wish there were refunds, I pretty much buy every decent Xbox live games that comes out and this has all the potential in the world but the controls made me want to shoot myself in the face... It's just bad. Save yourself some heartache and use the 5 dollar bill as toilet paper. That would be money better spent... I can't even use this crap.
That's why there is an option to test all the XBox live games for free before buying

I'm aware, it offers up the easiest levels that don't show you the games real mechanics at all... No thanks... I always get the full games of any decent looking games.
Actually there are really few decent games on WP7.... Except maybe Ilomilo or Harvest...
They are all very boring, with a very basic gameplay.
The best exemples are certainly Fable Golf or The Blob. Graphics are nice, but how boring these games are.... No variations or challenge at all.
I you buy a game without trying it and it's rubbish, you deserve what happens to you, no sympathy there.
As for the game itself, I agree that it's not good and Who wants to be a Millionaire is just as bad.
We were originally supposed to get Angry Birds today and instead we got two piles of crap.
I just tried the demo of Super Monkey and indeed... It's crap.
How poor the graphics are...! How they dare propose this for the WP7 platform?
Regarding the controls, they are just so bad that they make the whole game unusable.
Where are the good/sophisticated games on WP7 ???
most have to be made, not ported
PES is actually a good game, I love corona
and I absolutely love the harvest
but many games are rubbish
I am holding out on sonic 4 being good because I like the game on the wii, but I'd love a metal gear on this thing
Toss us a bone konami

There just aren't enough users to warrant putting the resources into a massive, complex, graphics-intensive game. Plus people aren't willing to pay - the amount of reviews saying that PES2011 is too expensive at £3.99. This, the most fun, addictive and probably longest replay-value game on the market. Should be 12p apparently.
Well I bought it, and I really like it. I find the controls fine, took a bit of playing to get used to it, but it is good fun. I do think a joystick control might make it a bit easier, but its a good game, the graphics arent that bad either... looks like SMB 1 did to me, other than the 2d monkey.

agreed, the mechanics were not smooth at all.
On a side note, I thought I had wasted money on deer hunter, but it works much better after the nodo update.

huh rocket riot, max and the magic marker, fruit ninja, tiki towers, iblast moki are also gr8 games. for a brand new platform WP7 has a decent amount of good games.
the only thing missing are some gr8 exclusives like the Harvest.
I find a lot of the games great but I came from Android not an iPhone. Earthworm Jim, Fruit Ninja, Hexic Rush, iBlast Moki, Ilomilo, Max and the Magic Marker and Tiki Towers are some of my favourites.
I can see the frustration some people might have with things like Fable Coin Golf but these are really designed to be pick up and play games you can play when you're on the go quickly and easily.
Game plays smoothly on my HTC Arrive.
Two reasons why I didn't buy the game:
1. 2D Monkey Balls - I'm sure they could have done 3D without dropping below 30 fps. Simply lazy programming.
2. No mini games. Monkey Flight is the sole reason why I bought the original games.
Well atleast I assume we all enjoy some level of gaming. I've been a huge fan of the developers GameLoft . Most of their Android games aren't on the market for some reason but I've purchased and played their games ( NOVA , Assassins Creed, and GT Racing ) and they are amazing. When ever I try to go searching for more quality games like the ones they make all I get tossed at me are things like Angry Birds and Air Traffic Control. They are fun little games and they are fine but I am searching for more higher quality 3D games.
So know of any?
http://gameloft.com = their site, check it out. Wait for a sale to go on before buying. I got all my games for $5 about a month ago.
NOVA : A SWEET 3D FPS. Straight up, it's like Halo on your Droid which is just pretty freaken awesome especially when you factor in that it has Multiplayer Deathmatch levels. If you kill all the background apps and services before playing your experience should be super smooth and fun.
Assassins Creed : An interesting remake of the game from the console versions. The graphics are of course pretty snazzy and the game play it's self is comfortable. Worth checking out if you like more "Adventure-ish" style games.
GT Racing : Oh... My gawd... Hands down my favorite racing game. Not for the phone but outright FAVORITE racing game. Detail is rediculous, graphics are insane, and the number of cars and races are just like ... daaamn... You gotta check it out.
Huh I thought there would be more interest in this area but I suppose I stand alone lol
Well I am not actually much for games. my game is flashing a new rom every once in a while ... well I did get Majesty from appstore for free the other day. I played only the tut and one adventure but it seems like a pretty good game. it is similar to AOE which I grew up playing alllll the time.
Thanks,
SoBBie
I downloaded that too! Pretty fun. Also not a huge mobile gamer but I might check out some of the games in the OP.

Hi i will have my SGS2 soon and i have brought the mrs a Galaxy ace as its her first smart phone and very cheap indeed.
I was woundering if there any 2 player games that we both can play against eachother from eachothers phones,
I no apples phones have games like this but i really havnt a clue with android as im slightly rusty with it tbh and never really had any freinds with an android device.
I've come across a few and they tend to be turn based games rather than real-time. There's a whole bunch of Scrabble derivatives (Words with friends, wordfeud, wordsmith), a few for chess (chess-presso is the only one I've tried but I know there are others) and one that I particularly like is Pool Break which lets you play pool, snooker, and a couple of other games.
For real-time gaming the only one I know of is Homerun Battle 3D which is quite good fun. I'm sure there are others but that should get you started.

Isn't mini squadron multiplayer? That's a fun little game.
so there is a few then, id concider playing any game against the mrs!
if you like starcraft, try starfront from gameloft, very nice detailed game, and very nice to play against friends (and your mrs if she likes that kind of games.)
Edit: they have multiplayer on most games, so check out their website. I believe they also have some nice racing games etc.

So I found my old N-Gage the other night in a box. A few games and one of them was the awesome game The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey. Game had potential but was dumbed down by the low power hardware of the N-Gage. Does anyone know if there is a emulator for the N-gage on android? Nice thing about the games is that it is easy to copy the game data off it as there is no encryption.... Could be awesome to play this with an emulator that would allow you to speed up the game a bit... thanks in advance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWZtErLAtA8
Edit: I am going to venture that no emulator exists..... did some searching around and fond nothing but an emulator for PC.... but then again all the links for that PC emulator for N-gage were dead......hmmmm
I have emailed Bethesda thanking them for making these awesome games.... and asked if there were plans to release either a new game for android/IOS and or a remake of Shadowkey with updated graphics and of course Xperia PLAY support. I seriously doubt anything will from this but still, doesnt hurt to ask.. if others are interested in this idea please email Bethesda at the following link:

Dont even think there is one on PC! Shame really! As a Big 40K Fan! Always wanted to check out Warhammer 40,000: Glory in Death. (Ave Imperator)
http://uk.gamespot.com/warhammer-40-000-glory-in-death/
oh yeah !!!!1
elder scroll i the best game i've ever checked
High_Seize
Pathway_to_Glory
Pathway_to_Glory:_Ikusa_Islands
Best turn-based strategy games, ever. And only for N-Gage. And my n-gage died sometime ago
PtG was like Jagged Alliance in WW2. I played that game through tens of times.
I think there was a n-gage emulator for PC back in the days. Though I am not so sure anymore.

Love Turn based strategy!!!! Never know about Pathway to Glory but need to check it out! Thats what we need more of on Android! Would love to see a mobile based version of X-Com! (Know somebody did a version for WinMob years ago! Hopefully with the new remake inbound!!!!!) or Jagged Alliance! (there was a Nintendo DS version i think!). Julian Gollop needs to bring some of his Ninja Skills to Android! (Got most of his games on my XPlay with emulation!!!)
I bought a Motorola RAZR instead of that phone.... worst mistake ever :'(
Mile High Pinball was one of my favs
Did anyone ever play the ONE ... ?
lol, you read my thoughts. The only elder scrolls games we could run on our phone are shadowkey and arena (daggerfall is still to laggy i fear); of course an android remake/release of whatever game in the series would be amazing. Anyways, even if there was an n-gage emulator, the screen would be pretty much half black :\
i've never played shadowkey, though. How was it compared to the main series? In terms of world size, things to do etc.
Only 2 games Id want on android tbh.
High Seize and Pocket Kingdom. I could SOOOO see Pocket Kingdom with todays Multiplayer ability.
Also I love my Ngage QD. Sad that Ngage arena is no more. Also The Civ 2 port on ngage was spot on.
I do rem winning 2nd place in the high seize ngage arena tournament. Only cause my FINAL game.. I was a different color and I mis looked at my units lol.. But still won some nice swag.
Btw, a remake "might" be in the works? http://insomniacgamers.net/IGForums/index.php?topic=1467.0
Sorry for bumping this but, someday someone should really release this for android.
There have been a lot games I enjoyed on N-gage:
- High mile pinball (Playable also on the newer Nokia phones but plays best on N-gage)
- Splinter Cell (Maybe not impressive now, but back in the day I played this out over and over.)
- The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey
- Xanadu Next (Some may dislike this but I love Xanadu!)
- Catan (Is out for Android I think, but I would prefer playing this version once again.)
- Ashen (Great shooter, never finished it would love to some day.)
- High Seize
- System Rush (Nice wipout clone.)
- The Roots: Gates of Chaos (Great RPG!)
- Worms World Party (Remember winning 1rst price in the tournament on N-gage arena.)
- The Sims Bustin' Out (I think someone will shoot me for listing this, but its a fun advanture and I love it.)
- Rifts: Promise of Power (Great RPG!)
So if anyone can, please DO make an N-gage emulator.
There are loads of great games, and I bet there are more people who would like to play these on the go once again.
Kind regards, Stefan.
What? You didn't mention pocket kingdom? Lol

oh yea man the one was a great game !!
Ah yes how can I forget Pocket Kingdom great game aswell!
One was not bad, but not really my game.
See people, there is enough reason to make an N-gage emulator...
Kind regards, Stefan.
I loved King of Fighters Extreme and Asphal Urban GT2 from the N-gage
Well pocket kingdom was fun. Play offline then go online vs others. Someone is trying to remake it for android. Also civ 2 port was great on ngage.

N-Gage emulator for pc
There indeed is an emulator available to run N-Gage applications on a PC platform.
It comes with the Nokia SDK for the S60 platform.
It can be downloaded on Nokia official site.
Other cellphones that run N-Gage applications: N73, N78, N81, N82, N93, N95, N96, and the Nokia XpressMusic 5320.
Does any one have experience making emulators?
