If you're new to android like me, it's not obvious where to find great games. This little video that I saw on engadget is a great starting point.

what do u mean where do you find them? they are all in the android store. Theres little green captions that come up and tell you the names of each app if that was your question.
As a direct result of that video I went out and bought Shoot U! ($2.99) and LightUp ($1.99)
I don't game a ton on my phone but I love the puzzle/time passer type games for when I am waiting for something for anything more than 10 minutes
Jewels
Sudoku
Robo Defense
Solitaire
LightUp
Shoot U!
Good enough for me

Im having difficulty in finding games for this phone.
The only ones ive got which are worth playing are Poker and 10 pin Bowling from the microsoft website.
I keep finding flash games but they want a keypad.
What games are worth looking for? I know there is an Age of Empires game...
Hey,
heard about scummvm?
It's a lil Virtual Machine for old Games like Day of the Tentacle and Indiana Jones.
Scummvm is designed for point-and-click adventures.
There is a PocketPC Version also.
look here:
http://www.scummvm.org/
I love it, but most games are hard to handle, so you have to try a lil bit
Have fun...

Inspired by your thread i tried to search for age of empires
I found this Site http://www.filaomobile.com/
It is linked from a german site which says AOE Gold 1.25 is free downloadable for PocketPC. But it's not possible for me, to open that site, cause i'm at work and Webpages in Category "Games" are blocked
You could give a try, maybe you'll find aoe on that site.
MS are giving away Texas Hold em for free again.

Even with some tricks u can play Warcraft 2 with Stratagus engine without using keyboard (keyboard is used when saving)
Some of the ported game are free & some are not
There are hundreds upon hundreds out there, my favourite is Worms World Party, addictive game and can even be played multi player.
hey
is there any game like this i've searched for it but can't find any similar the only thing I found is Motocross Stunt Racer but I've tried it and it's not that fun.
would love that too. alot like trials on 360 arcade.
and theres the iphone game with roller coasters you have to tilt to adjust speed so you dont fly off.
jeez i hate thinking about all the fun simple games they have
yeah i know there are a lot fun games for the iphone that ae verry simple and don't need a good 3D driver so I think it is possible for are cellphones the only problem is that we need good developers
Xmoto is a Open Source Elasto mania clone.
xmoto.tuxfamily.org (I cant post links)
Maybe it can be ported?
pocket elma
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Games/Simulation/Pocket-Elma-2005.shtml
There was also another one, but i can't remember the name.
I think MotoGear is another elasto mania clone made for pocket pc.
Edit: Sure is! I'm playing it on my windows mobile now.
Or can someone please point me in the right direction? Happy to pay.

actually it's 50000+ .. i couldn't find any bridgecard game
On the same sort of topic, I've not been able to find a stand alone texas hold'em poker game. Plenty of online games, but I want something to play single player - kinda like PokerTH on the pc!!
And no scrabble !
But this I can understand, it is copyrighted

There is Scrabble. It's not on the market, but you can buy it off of EA Mobile's website or find it in some dark corner of the internet
It's actually a really high-quality app.
Are there any good turn-based strategy games out there on Android? I came across the old Military Madness game and had some nostalgic fun which got me to wondering. Or any oldies I can play on emulators?
I'd also like to play some of the old LucasArts/Sierra adventure games but I think I read the ScummVM doesn't work on newer versions of Android is that correct?
gbcoid and gameboid are the best gameboy emulators. If you don't want to pay for an emulator that lets you save, I use GVBA for my gameboy rpg needs...
i have gameboid and i usually look for turn based rpgs, some examples i got are pokemon, final fantasy, fire emblem, golden sun, riviera - the promised land
www.conquerclub.com
It's obviously not an app, but it's the best turn-based strategy game out there and you can use it on your phone via the browser.
Thanks I'll check it out. Been trying to install some SNES strategy roms and when I get them to download and/or work, half the time it's in Japanese which doesn't make it too easy to play, lol.
You might want to check out UniWar. I tried it on my old iphone, and they ported it over to Android. I'm not sure how large the online population is anymore though.
Advance War 1 and 2 are the best

Hey guys any feedback would be helpful. Tell me what you liked or disliked about the game.
Try to use one of android themes, because now it's looks like app developed in 2000.

Thanks for the feedback. Now what android theme are you talking about? The theme of the game is about movies. Would you like to see pop quiz on android phones and things of that nature?
