i got this expensive smart phone for christmas.
not only it can reproduce music like it was an ipod but i can compress videos so much that i can have a whole library of music videos;

and then theres the Really good stuff:

brother's in arms 3d is a full poligonal game for cellphones

i am certainly hooked. graphics are medal of honor ps1 style. explosions look amazing (really) you can even do headshots with the sniper rifle

while this game is not even multiplayer. i found myself spending a lot more time with this game rather than et.

the next generation of this kind of games might close the gap even further; i dont know, you could have some sort of wiimote on your phone or something to improve the playability (phone keys are so limiting/although my gameboy advance emulator plays just fine)

will the next generation of smart phone games, with slightly improved graphics and primitive bluetooth 4 player action compete with player classics like enemy territory?

i think they just might

I don't see how a smart phone game can compete with a computer game. They are very different platforms with very different users...

Nah! I hate 3d cell phone games. They are too hard to play.

One of my friends annouced he was playing ET Wolfensetein on the same server I was using a moble phone (Iphone, I think)


He said it was a little hard on controls.


Over all games are nice as a distraction, but too go hard core like wolf et, best not. that phone wont last or will be dropped while trying to do a shraft jump haha! :lol:
