WP7 Price Drops

And next week's Xbox Live release is... pretty sweet!

Asteroids Deluxe review

And a new indie game of possible interest: Armor Valley

I picked up The Harvest. Might get Super Monkey Ball too, but a lot of the reviews really make me wary.

I've never played a Monkey Ball that I liked. I've probably played it on Gamecube, DS, GBA, 3DS and WP7. It is just a game I do not like. For some reason I give it another chance every couple years, but it never improves for me.

I made an exception to my $2 rule for The Harvest. I've been wanting this game since before I even bought my WP7 phone.

Now I just hope it doesn't get a bigger price cut in the near future.

Try the demo and beat at least 5 levels before deciding. The controls are bad, but I still think it's a fun game overall. I hear 1 Achievement is glitched, but it's a long-ass game so there's a good amount of value/lots of challenge for $3.

Yeah, I downloaded the Monkey Ball demo last night. I loved that game on Gamecube and even GBA, but the controls are complete, unplayable crap on Windows Phone.

OMG is the DotW. 1.99.

WP7 Deal of the Week

I bought it, 2 dollars is hard to pass up, and the game is fun! I only have like three achievements left so far, the secret, the OMFG, and i think one other? The OMFG appears to be one hard cheevo.. This is a must buy, imho.

I bought OMG because it was so cheap, but it just isn't clicking for me. Oh well.

Good to finally see the must have games coming out. I think I'll get most of them, but $7 seems like too much for Sonic 4.

That's pretty much my take, too.

Forgot to mention this price drop...


I Love Katamari - $6.99 $4.99 - Review

It's worth a buy for Katamari fans.

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is sooo tempting, but I must wait for a DOTW and possibly a price drop. The demo was fun. I don't have a 360/PS3, so I haven't had my fill.

Katamari is tempting. The controls were bad on the demo, but not as bad as with Monkey Ball, and I love me some Katamari.

BTW, finally played The Harvest a bit this week. That game is great. Probably one of my top three WP7 games, the other two being Full House Poker and Castlevania Puzzle.

Also, Chess is cross-platform compatible with the browser version on xbox.com (but achievements can only be unlocked on the WP7 version).


ps. I bought it. Thanks, seanr1221.

I love my windows mobile 7 phone, but the prices on games are retarded. I expect to see epic awesome games for the 1-3 $ price range like I keep hearing about on the other app stores. If developers want to make "teh huge moniez" they should keep making games for the PC and my Xbox360.

I have yet to buy a game on my windows mobile 7 phone. Give me a bunch of totally awesome and REALLY CHEAP games and I'll buy.
