There is a lot of Windows Mobile gaming news to report on:
After Ben Stanley’s excellent review, Just Another Mobile Monday has also published a review of probably the best and, what is more, TCP/IP multiplayer-enabled, turn-based strategy game even released for the Pocket PC, Orions: Legend of Wizards. It's available here and is highly recommended. Note that I'll also publish a Strategy Guide to the game (I'm also an author of several Starcraft Strategy Guides so the genre, the ideas of micromanagement etc. are pretty well-known to me) later, as soon as I have some free time (not in the next two weeks, I'm afraid). (News source: PPCT).
BTW, note that a new, 1.01 version of the game was released some days ago; it, among other things, fixed the multiplayer functionality, which was entirely useless in the initial version. Now, multiplayer is working just great and, as it's IP address entering-based, really flexible and even allows for playing people in another continent (that is, it's not local-only). (News source: I worked very closely with the excellent Moregames Entertainment folks to quickly iron out the bug.)
Pocket Fallout, the highly recommended, free (!) Fallout clone (review here) has just received a dedicated website. (New source: private e-mail from the developer.)
[email protected] is working on a real (!) Pirates! clone Caribbean Adventures 1600AD. Unlike the other two piracy-related games on the Pocket PC, High Seas and Tradewinds (please read the full story here), this is promised to bear much more similarities with the classic Pirates! (News source: have run into the announcement while checking out the following title.)
The same developer, [email protected], has just released a space shooter Space Prospector. I haven't tested it as yet; based on the screenshots, it doesn't seem to be as good as SkyForce Reloaded, the best vertical scroller game available for the Pocket PC. I may be mistaken, though. (News source: PocketGamer.org)
The excellent Doom port (which, as can also be seen based on its name, supports the 3D hardware built into Intel 2700G and GoForce-based Windows Mobile devices) DoomGLES has been updated to version 0.5. There are two main things of interest in here (among other things):
- music support (at last! Previous versions only offered sound effects)
- can be played in Portrait mode, which is certainly very good news for Dell Axim x50v/x51v users sensitive to the polarization problems of the cheapo Dell screen in Landscape mode.
All in all, checking out the new version is a MUST for all 3D hardware accelerated Windows Mobile device users. (News source: forum announcement over PocketGamer.)
Interactive E Books Ltd has released Jurassic Adventure. It's an interactive e-book where you play the role of a research physicist sent back in time one hundred and fifty million years into the past. Don't, however, expect anything like a "real" adventure game. In my opinion, Interactive E Books's games are far inferior to that of, say, Legend Entertainment on the PC or, on the Pocket PC / Palm, Fade Team (Fade on the PPC / Acedior on the Palm - do they ring a bell?). However, it's pretty cheap and, if you're into the genre, you may want to give it a try. (News source: PocketGamer)
The free, highly recommended Transport Tycoon Deluxe has also been updated; the new features are as follows:
- Now works on VGA devices
- Loads the PC version of OpenTTD's save game files!
- Right-click emulation via hard buttons.
- Fast landscape graphics via custom raw frame buffer drawing routines.
- Full threaded sound effects and music.
- Palm TTD provides full 480x320 Tapwave API accelerated graphics
(News source & related discussion: PocketGamer)
Tetraedge has released the long-anticipated multimedia (which is bad news for fans of the "traditional" textual or Lucasfilm/Sierra-like genre) adventure game Syberia 2 in both English and German (French, Spanish and Italian versions will follow later). Note that I can only provide you a ClickGamer link (and this one for the German version) because the official homepage of the developer still doesn't have any information on the new game. Note that, while originally there wasn't, now, a trial version is also available. (News source & related discussion: PocketGamer)
PocketGear offers a 20% rebate for all their products in March with the coupon code MARCH20 (News source: PocketGamer)
UPDATE (later the same day): as is announced at AximSite, DoomGLES V0.54 has just been released. Make sure you upgrade!
Whatever happened to Live Anywhere? I would love to unlock achievements while i play zuma on my WM device and be able to chat with my xbox live friends when i'm bored in class... or customize my car on Forza Motorsport as their developers showed in the "capabilities" of live anywhere.
Hey I know this has already been done. I am trying to find a "NEW" list of everyone's favorite apps and games from the android market. Feel free to join in and leave a list of your favorites, or even a general description of the app would be nice as well.

3. Gmote (want to use your android phone as a keyboard and mouse for your pc, operates everything on your computer via your phone)
4. Google Translate (even speaks the different language for you)

In the description it says:

How do I do this? I have root, but it auto installed the app after I downloaded it from the market, so I'm not sure how to make it a system app.

Gmote - Perfect for streaming audio from my home PC

Swype, HTC_IME, and SwiftKey keyboards - Still testing them all. All 3 have things I prefer over stock, and all are worth a try at least.
There are certainly more, and I download more every day.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
APP - Its an app, a mobile app for android.
4.4+ - Will run only Android Kitkat and later.
COCManager is a player-centric, unofficial client for Clash of Clans, which makes use of the Clash of Clans API to present data in an intuitive way.
Features
Player-centric - Consider this app to be a player's companion app, presenting and monitoring app for him/her. However, as of now, it does not make use of the other aspects of the API like league and other clans.
Profile - Shows information about the player, and basic stats (including donation ratio).
Clan - Shows clan members, and each clan members' info can be viewed too. You can even view your clan mate list ordered by their XP, donation ratio, trophies.
Troops - Shows troop information of the players. You can view each type of army unit separately. You can also see their cost, HP, DPS related stats.
Achievements - Shows achievements of the player. You can view finished/unfinished achievements too.
Daily Statistics - Shows information of how much gold, elixir, dark elixir looted in a day and other information. Note: As of now, the app resets the daily stats to 0 the first time the app is started in the day (that is after 0000 hours) for now. I will try to make this process automatic soon.
Trophy Records - Shows information on how much trophies you gained/lost in a day. It also starts showing your trophy records history for past few days as enough data of your trophy records are collected, in a beautiful graph.
Clan/Player Search - You can search players/clans with their tags, because why not?
Favorites - You can now save your favorite players and clans. Its not related to in-game bookmarks/friends tho.
Offline Caching - Even without internet, you can view/show your profile information, troops, achievements and daily stats once you are set up. However, you will need to go online to view clan members and each player info.
Blue-colored features are newest additions.

I don't lay coc but I play games like it very intensely. This looks fantastic. Currently my game has been Vikings War of Clans and I'd love to see this adapted to that game. This looks to be ground breaking genius. I'm thrilled to see it
is it safe for install ?
don't wanna get banned for 3rd party apps.

Nope you wont get banned. Its safe to install.
It makes use of the API that Supercell themselves provided for Clash of Clans.
And this app in no way makes changes that affects the in-game play.
It only reads data from the API and presents to the user in an intuitive way .
App is now available on Play Store
A big update is here
- New section : Trophy records - Will help you track your trophy pushing records.
- You can now search players/clans with their tags.
- You can now save your favorite clan/player in the app. (This does not affect or is related to your bookmarked clans and your friends in game).
- Added troops' cost, DPS, HP stats.
- In your clan page, you can now filter clan members by their XP and donation ratio too.
- In your achievements page, you can now filter completed/not completed achievements.
- Added error messages.
- Fixed the low quality league badge in navbar.
- Various other fixes.
App is available in Play Store, whose link is there in the main post.
