Games and availability - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

An internet site, which shall remain nameless, offers an amazing amount of cracked games for my HD2, for free. This is all good. But I love my phone, and I woulden't mind paying for some of them. To support the non-Iphone scene, if nothing else.
Why oh why, aren't these games and apps available on the marketplace?! I was really surprised to find that there are so many games out there. But that doesn't help, if people doesn't know where to get 'em.
Is there something wrong with my Marketplace app? I only have two games to choose from. Mahjong, and some brain game/app?

try switching to the US MArket, there are more than 2 games in there

Try www.freewarepocketpc.net, there are some good games there too. but there are many games over here too!!

Hi,
I try to search but I've found nothing interesting;
I would know what is the best 3d game for win mob 6.5 in your opinion?

I don't know anything about the HD2 game because i don't own one.
But just for sure that the site you mention really provide games. But I don't think there is any site like that. *~*
The window mobile has very few games, 3D games is even fewer. I am very sad about it... T_T
But the HD2 can run Android OS. I think that is also a solution for you.

are there cracks or anything for them, how about some free games??
as warez is strongly discouraged on these forums, you'll not get an answer to that here. Either pay for your games or find a different source...
but there are free games that one can find. I personally can't give you any recommendations, because my idea of a "game" is playing with the GPS or flashing a custom rom...
games
There are lots of freeware and demo versions of games available on freewareppc and similar sites.
If you are willing to pay for games, DreamQuest has some very nice card games available. I have several of them and they were well worth the money. $15 is not much money to pay for something fun to play and beautifully designed.
Any other for-pay games people want to recommend?

angry birds on hd2

hey y'all, anyone got an idea if it's possible to play angry birds iphone/n900 game on leo!? coolest game I've seen in probably like two weeks!
Do I ask on Apple Forum if it's possible to remove the battery? No. Why? Different stuff. You must stop comparing them. Period.
In our dreams man
lol, as much as i dont like the Iphone i must admin that angry birds game is pretty fun.
In saying that there are better usefull programs on the HD2 but it does lack quality games but adding PSX emulation does add some spice though.
iphuck
I'm well aware of the fact that my leo kicks some serious apple ass, but don't anyone out there think it would be awesome to have games from this century as well? after all we do talk about the top of the line device, right!?
ABDOKRO1 told it all. Wanna iphone stuff? Buy iphone. Bought WinMo PPC? Use winmo stuff.

I don't get what is so wrong with asking if there is anything like a game/app from iphone? Alot of games are made for multiple platforms. We already have some games "ported" from iphone.
Stop with the iphone-complex
and winmo stuff means like 90's video games? don't get me wrong, I think it's an awesome solution but why oh why won't they make games like this for winmo. it's not just iphuck you know, seems to me all platforms are a lightyear ahead... think mr gates has a syndrome or something.........

It will get better with W7 i guess. Winmo is old and there are alot of different devices/hardware so it's hard to make games for them.
For now just keep looking and let us know if you find any =D

It depends what you want. Windows Mobile is by far the best business orientated platform available. THAT IS WHAT IT IS FOR!!!
If you want a game-based pretty toy then the iPhone is the phone for you. Don't buy a Land Rover and then complain that it doesn't look like a Mini Cooper.

To be fair, the HD2 is not sold as a business phone, it's sold as a multimedia phone! At least it is in my country.
basically, angry birds is a flash game to me except for two things...
1.) on the multitouch zooming on the map, and
2.) minor multitouch on one particular 'golder-egg' level (which is like a bonus unlock)
for me it doesnt seem impossable, all we need
1. permission from angry birds hq,
2. a dev willing to make the software (might be good to edit story line and add a zoomer bar instead to save time)
but one thing... whos gonna make it lol?
cheers
to be honest i back alot of people views on this thread and infact every other thread this is mentioned on, if you want iphone apps get an iphone it really is as simple as that and the only reason why regular members are becoming short and blunt with people about this is because it comes up time and time again with people moaning they have a HD2 and wanting iphone games sheesh!!!!!!!
if you dont want the phone just the apps do like i do and get an Ipod touch and that way you can have the best of both worlds lol instead of moaning.
Sorry i think i speak on behalf of most of us on here!!!!
might be a good point, but I got my hd2 for the 4,3" multitouch screen's entertainment potensial, as I work on construction sites it's not worth much to me as a buisiness phone.. but seems there are people with me on this. as far as I can tell there are ALOT of programmers on xda so I figure some people are capable of making stuff built for other platforms fit to winmo, right?
Angry Birds - Lets put the story to bed!
To save you all wondering if AB is coming to Winmo, I wrote to the devolper -
"Will Rovio ever make a Windows mobile version of Angry Birds?
I have the game on my iPhone but want it on my HD2"
Here's the reply I got back -
"Thanks for your email. Currently we have no plans on bringing Angry Birds to any Windows mobile 6.5 devices. We are looking into bringing the game to window 7 devices in the future. Unfortunately it’s very unlikely Angry Birds will be available for your HD2.
At least you can keep playing it on your iPhone "
So there you go. Straight from the horses mouth - Rovio
Sweep
awwww thats sad...
thanks sweep anyway(s)
More than likely it'll just be ported by someone at one point or another. I'm noticing that more and more developers are going through the trouble of porting iPhone apps to Windows Mobile. Funny because it shows the iphone developers all the money they lost out on becuase someone released it for free lol.
Plus if it brings any comfort, there are already developers that have had donations and equipment BOUGHT for them to port WM7 onto the HD2. Sooner or later Windows Mobile 7 will be on the HD2. Dunno how great it'll work on it but at least people can start saying "someone is getting WM7 onto the HD2".
Future will be better
I understand why people see games on other phones and want it on ours. I wish I had the time to port over some of those games myself. Well there is no angry birds but if you look in this forum there is 2 short SuperMariobros games. One of them I made Mario have a gun where he can shoot goombas and koopas. Sorry I dont have the time nessary to make longer games but at least we have something they dont have SuperMario with a gun. Hopefully in the future I have more time. Here is the link to SuperMarioGunHD2

[Q] Slow paced (or turn based) multiplayer games?

Do you guys know of any games that can be played with other android phones at a leisurely pace? On that I have in mind is Words with Friends (and similar games). I'm looking for something that I can play with a friend of mine, but that we can but down for a while and then pick back up whenever one of us has a free minute.
Thanks!
I think its a MMO on the market called pocket something its multiplayer not turned based & free
derp
Try searching "ShipCombat Multiplayer". It's basically like battleship and you're able to sync it with facebook as well.
There's an MMO called "Pocket Legends" as well, if that's the kind of game you're into. "Dungeon Defenders" is similar as well.
Not to mention all the RPG style games like iMobster available on the market.
"Chess Online" lets you play games with people around the world also.
Now that I'm thinking about it, I feel like the Market needs more slow-paced multiplayer games. I'm personally waiting for them to port Hanging with Friends.
Thanks for the reply, guys. Cell phones are the ideal platform for slower turn based games like this. I'll look into that battleship.

Leapfrog Leapster Emulator (leappad/explorer)

I've been hunting for games for my kid to play. nothing comes close to the ones on the explorer. It seems like an emulator would be perfect since the games are touchscreen based. I'd be willing to pay or help out in any way for an app like this.or even a similar system to the explorer or leap pad
anythig???

I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you there is a good chance what you are asking is illegal
ya but people make emulators of older system all the time and know people are developing 1s for the dreamcast gamecube/wii and nds...wich are higher spec systems while this still has decent graphics the specs aint as high and game play for kids is best iv seen..love the way they do game play and education in game..ive seen people do it reverse puting emulators on the leapster explorer i just think would be beter other way around

It wouldn't be worth it. You're the only person that wants it. There are legal issues. Just download some simple games like angry birds or fruit ninja. Or buy a leapfrog device.

here you go this emulates android and it is fully legal.

New user looking for hope

Just got a Sony S Tab yesterday and was wondering, is there any hope for rooting this superb device?
I have looked around and it seems like know one has managed this yet. My main reason would be to change build prop so that i would be able to play games like 9mm, modern combat 3 and tintin.
So, have i bought a great tab just to play games like angry birds and the like.
Any advise would be great.
Cheers,
David
Root will come eventually.You've just got to be patient
I'm also really hoping the tablet s gets rooted. There's a bounty going in the developer thread for almost $1000 for anyone who can figure out how to do it, so hopefully that'll entice someone to do it.
As for running those incompatible games we're pretty stuck for now. I honestly think everyone should be emailing gameloft asking for them to just fix it so we can buy their stuff. Surely they'd do something if they thought the demand was high enough... but then again who knows lol
Either way, we're going to have to be patient and wait for root. Hopefully someone else may know a method to make the games work now so that's worth researching tho
Patients is my middle name....NOT. I WANT IT NOW.Sorry, i got carried away. Gameloft could make alot more money if they expanded their coverage on different devices. With all that loveliness of a big screen, 1gb ram, Tegra2 and super resolution you would think they would have the knowledge to integrate their games.
Anyways, enough of my ranting, i wish i was technically minded, i would take the money and make this a incredible experience for all.
D.
My guess is if you could force it to load, they'd work just fine.. being tegra2 and all. I emailed them requesting their support of the tablet, listing in-compatible games.
Also questioned as to why you can get N.O.V.A. 2 off their website as a demo with ingame purchase of the full game, that works just fine, yet it is "incompatible" on the android market. To this they said "we have no information specific to the title you are inquiring about".
Got the general, allthough there are no set plans, yadayada, developers working hard, blah, your suggestions are forwarded to our dev team.
etc!
So yeah I agree, shout loud enough and we'll be heard.
Download N64oid and play Mario 64 ;]
I think Tin Tin works. I think i played it on my tablet.
If TinTin works then I am really confused. On the Marketplace it does not show up.
Check this out! Sony Tablet S has been successfully rooted
I know, if this baby gets rooted then it will make my day
Root's finally arrived guys! Just check over at the development forums.
Now that i have root would anyone have a suitable build prop to "trick" marketplace so that i may install my gameloft games?
Cheers, happy days, eh.
David
Quick heads up. Changed build prop and games now show up in marketplace and install and run perfect
Model=A500
device=acer
Name=picasso_generic1
device=picasso
Ps. Thats it,all my internal memory is run dry, I have a 32gb sd card just sitting their but games dont see the sd card because Sony set this up all wrong.
