Cell Phone Gaming
97thruhiker:
Its late 2005 and I have finally got a cell phone. Been avoiding it as long as possible but could not pass it up considering the package my wife was able to get (she has had a phone since they looked and felt like bricks). My question deals with the gaming aspect. I have a samsung flip phone model x475 and our service is T-Mobile. The phone has a cople of okay Java games on it. T-Mobile has a place called T-Zones where you can download games from them. I was wondering are their other places I could get games for this phone besides T-Mobile (looking for some classic games they do not have). Maybe a website that has games and an 800 number to call for the game you want. I'm sure that I could do a google search for this but was wondering what the good folk on this site knew first. Thanks in advance.

There's actually a version of MAME for Cell phones, but I don't think any of them work on yours:

Otherwise, I don't know of a way to download games other than the ones provided by the cell phone provider.

My motorola phone has a USB cable that allows me to transfer games over. As far as games, you can download them from your provider, or get them from the usual places.

I've downloaded a few of the "classic" games for my Verizon LG VX6000 from their "Get It Now!" service. Average price has been about $5.
My One-Line Reviews:
Asteroids: Horrible, the controls are hideous.
Frogger: Playable, considering the screen is split in half (road/water) and the sounds and music are way off.
Joust: Not Bad
Q*Bert: Pretty decent, actually, probably my favorite of the bunch
Qix: Seems relatively faithful

I tried Galaga on my Samsung a660. HORRID! The sound effects are really cool, and the phone rumbles when I die, but the frame rate is the pits. (Keep in mind though, this phone is a slow phone in general)
