Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Just wondering if any of them are worthwhile...

The only games i've found worth while are frozen bubble (linux port, open source :)). and sonic jump. very easy to complete with all emeralds but it's a nice distraction while on the train. I've had a blast on Doom for my N95 it's a faithfull port and runs full speed, but its a pain in the arse to play properly though.

Not sure how old school it is, but S-Tris is pretty fun with the maniac mode. I also enjoyed Frozen Bubble quite a bit.

Have only ever downloaded one Mobile Phone game and that was Bust a Move. The controls even for that put off me off completely. I don't think I'll ever want to play mobile phones games unless they come up with a good d-pad normal buttons two hand solution, but even then I'd rather just use an actual handheld.

I have a terrible rendition of Breakout on my Kyocera called "Brick Attack".

I have Arkanoid: Doh It Again... Sadly it's the only thing that plays well on my phone (Sharp 705SH). You know your phone sucks when it can't even play Pac-Man well. :cry:

I am not sure if it counts but I have worms golf on my old phone and that kept me amused for many a trip to the little boys room at work ;)

sure worms never did golf on a console but the general idea is hitting a landmine with angle and power into a hole with a worm tied to the flag. Later levels of difficulty intoduce wind so it has lasting appeal.
