i have found peggle for win mob here: http://store.handmark.com/p/118000/Windows-Mobile-Smartphone/Peggle-for-Windows-Mobile-Smartphone/
yet i cannot find it listed at http://www.popcap.com/games/peggle?mid=peggle_pc_en_full
Do you think this is legitimate and/or an offical release from popcap??
been wanting peggle on windows mobile for ever!
it is on their website but there is no free trial. you have to buy it.
I cant see it on there - if it were there would be a PDA/Smartphone tab - the "mobile" one is for non-wm stuff - tis the java one
ima buy it anyway -i'll tell ya'll what its like
well this is the worst game ever 4 - its a cheap port of the jaza version - the graphics suck and loks awful - the game is laggy and doesnt run well at all - the physics suck - its really disapointing - also the game doesnt calibrate to the touch screen it will be far to the left where ever you tap - it really is simply a cheap port of the java version

wow thanks for trying out first. i like it the pc version so much. good thing you told me.
wasnt even made by popcap -.- - it was made by "winplay" - emailed them about it but they never replied - really awful port
Are we looking at the same game?
I'm playing Peggle made by Winplay for Popcap (winplay is the same outfit that made the Windows Mobile version of Guitar Hero III, Bejeweled, etc) and it is not laggy at all on my Kaiser. Graphics and speed are great and I'm quite addicted.
So, if you have a phone with decent speed and memory give it a try.

i'm running on XPERIA X1 so its nout to do with hardware. could you upload a screen shot to make sure we are talking about the same game>
I bought this peggle originally for my Wizard, but it seemed quite sluggish on it too even when overclocked. Now i shot this video of it running on my Diamond.
This video is mostly done because the lack of a demo-version to warn people about the possible slowness. I hope that it helps.

As the Zune and the HD2 have similar capacitive screens surely we could expect games like this on the HD2 soon?
http://www.wmexperts.com/quick-review-new-zune-hd-3d-games
No. you will not see games like that on HD2 soon or later.
simply not.

why? You gotta give a more voluminous answer than that..
Zune is not windows mobile, is an specific device like a videoconsole and HD2 is like a PC.
Also, Zune have the tegra processor that is far more powerfull than the snapdragon in graphics, more support and lower resolution.
And, the vast majority of the win mobile phones are not too much powerful, so nobody is gonna make games for a 5% of the market of Windows mobile. Instead of that, they will make games for Iphone, zune or similar.

does zune sells more than all the wm world?
its just that microsoft wm sucks without sense and htc and it is difficult to play on a resistive no-multitouch screen..and above all, wm device (eccept the new ones) are very poor as chipset and driver..
We'll be getting our games
No worries everyone. A fellow xda'er found this link, that I now send to you. Looks promising for zune-like wm games.

That's a C# framework. What kind of games do you expect to be written in .Net?
HI @ all...
my iphone is dead
now i have an HD2 yeha
The iphone was a good game Maschine - so i search 4 good games
First i search a game like PapiJump for the HD2 has anyone ideas???
THX for Answers... cu
If you still have some old PSX cd's, i would strongly suggest you get fpseCE (the upcomming 0.10 version) since that emulates psx, and with decent framerate too! (and well, with 0.10 you can use the HD2's multitouch and g-sensor, the currentlly available version 0.96 isnt very playable on a HD2)
Besides that, just look around a bit for windows mobile games, i can tell you that all 3d games i tried so far (maybe 8, not counting psx games in emu ofc) run great, so just look around a bit, nfsu and other common games all seem to work, though i would suggest you look for a trail of a game before you buy it, after all its a new device, lots of developers dont have (access to) it yet.
Im ashamed to say (since personally im not a apple fan, at all) that the iphone beats windows mobile out of the ballpark when it comes to the amount of available games and apps, given, windows mobile has been around alot longer, but apparently the iphone is **** easy to develop for.
The HD2 (and all other wm 6.5 devices) has a windows marketplace now, there you can easylly buy apps and games, but theres not alot to choose from atm, this will change in the future (when all windows mobile developers update their apps to 6.5)

HD2 Compatible Games
There's a list of confirmed HD2 compatible Games:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588786&highlight=games
I will be getting an HD2 tomorrow (hopefully) and have been doing research about alot of different things for it... one thing is games - I have seen alot of games and none of them seem to be using the specs of the HD2 very well.... I would expect a phone like this to be able to have some very nice games, I understand it is quite new and maybe there aren't any out yet...but could you please let me know what is out there so far? I have only seen things like xtkart (I believe that is how it is spelled) and the ps1 emulator... so I was wondering what you guys have or what else is out there that is in accordance with my recommendation ?
Thanks in advance!
XTRAKT, Experiment 13 and Electopia demo are by far the best games for hd2! avatar, asphalt 4 and nfs undercover are great too!
man.. its just that i'm not interested in racing games...
i wouldn't mind some good ol tetris.. but with nice visuals that take advantage of the hd2 specs...

You might want to check FPSEce out, a PSX emulator for the HD2 which works very well...

Shooting Game
Dear all smart guys,
I am also wondering whether we can have those shooting game.. displaying in gameloft.com..............and which can be played in our super machine HD2...
games for HD2
Search for freewarepoketpc, and look for experiment 13
Ferrari GT2 Revolution looks BOMB on HD2. MiniGolf Wacky World looks also nice
the ferrari game runs 'terribly' on the US HD2.....they should be embarrassed....constant lag and slowdown. :O(
so basically to answer your question... there are none....... yet... don't lose hope... things will turn as soon as 7 comes out
yeah im not sure there are any games that fully take advantage of the hd2 hardware.
thats not to say that there arent any good games because there are PLENTY!

On my German HD2 with stock ROM it works brilliantly without any freezes etc.
@ Topic: You have to keep in mind that it is a Windows Phone. If you wanna have a phone for playing only then you have to buy an iPhone or sth. like that. Nevertheless I got more than 20 brilliant HD2 games that brought me hours of fun during long train trips.
wow, i wonder why the one on the us hd2 runs so poorly.........it stutters sooooo badly that it's barely playable......i didn't buy this phone to play games but since they were included i certainly checked them out, that's why i'm so shocked that they included a game that runs like crap, lol, not a good advertisement!
the graphics suck on that game too, not up to the HD2 par in my opinion...the game market for this phone is disappointing! =\..
By the time Windows 7 comes out you said ? Yeah, but the HD2 would still be stuck on windows 6, remember ?....I wonder if the games will be comaptible though? or If someone will come up with a perfected windows 7 rom for the HD2 ? Or at least a perfected android rom... then maybe we will have some decent games ? Otherwise I hope the developers are working on some great games otherwise the hardware will be going to waste for the most part...
I would take a look over at pda4you.org, if i was you guys..
just a quick question: WP7 with Xbox live or iPhone or Android, Which among them would u recommend for hardcore gaming on the go considering present and future support and software? i'm having second thoughts about my device and was thinking of maybe switching. please no consoles, pc's, etc.
If you want HARDCORE gaming, neither WP7 nor iPhone will be good enough...PSP/PSP2 is what you'll want
You could wait for the rumored (dc if it's "confirmed" it's still a rumor to me) Sony phone, supposed to be like a psp running android.
i mean, only from those 3, wp7, iOS and android. i was thinking about gaming on the go with the same device making calls, sms, email, movies, music

for gaming on the go with the best future potential, i'd say wp7 has that crown.
Currently, android. Give it a few months and WP7.
Currently have an HTC Trophy, wife has an iphone. My mom has an Android (really!). So i guess the right thing to do is stick to WP7 and be patient
as much as i know we have emulators for psx and other conosles on android?^^
winmo got a psx emulator too (not wp7)
Cool, a psx emulator! Thats a plus then. Hate this dilemma

wp7 doesnt have ish for it .. what are u talking about .... only gameloft hd and dungeon defenders are worthwhile games , and theyre for android
that said id reccomend a galaxy s series or psp phone or a tegra2 phone
What screen size do you think you need for hardcore gaming? I can't imagine playing anything in great detail on a screen smaller than a tablet (iPad, Galaxy Tab, etc.)
Any screen size will do i guess or maybe at least 3.5"
Although i will never buy an iPhone, i have to admit that iPhone wins for gaming. Casual gaming, not hardcore. Android sure has WAY morapps then WinMo, but tbh, i was a bit dissapointed at the quantity/quality. iPhone has dedicated officaial game devs, wheras android is open source and there aren't that many blockbusters.
i personally use ny Ipod touch. i don't use my tab for games, there aren't many :/
Android is best for gaming. At CES, lots of new games were demoed for Android.

WP7 has the potential to be a big gaming platform, but it's never going to happen if people don't buy it, and so far, they aren't. Of the few who have bought a WP7 phone, fewer people are satisfied with it than people who bought Android phones.

Are phones carrier subsidized in the Phillippines? If not, then you will get a whole lot more phone for the money going with Android over iPhone.
Android has better hardware for games
iPhone has better optimization. The devs all just focus on one device hardware to build upon. the apps are more stable.
Gangstar on my ipod touch 2g is smoother than on my Samsung Galaxy Tab :/
p.s - I'm not a Apple fanboy.
None for now. WP7 might have a chance with XBox Live integration (and I think we might see some XBox games ported over, maybe not), but nothing much right now. iOS does have a ton of casual games, but not too fond of hardcore gaming on it (I think the screen size is way too small). Android has the advantage in hardware (obviously), but has a lack of drivers and, with the exception of emulators, the game selection is poor (might change).
Windows Mobile 6.x True playstation emulator.
FSpcse on TG01 = Unbeatable
(except hd2)
the new PSP
I would wait for the Atrix to come out, as it will be a powerhouse.
iPhone seems to get more support for games though and they are always released on iOS first.
Play Station Phone
