Most of the games found on them are rudimentary, with flat, cartoonish graphics and simple scenes. But that is going to change. Soon cell phone owners will be able to play games with realistic three-dimensional graphics rivaling those on PCs and game consoles. Companies are working to introduce more sophisticated games to mobile handsets, which will have powerful graphics chips to make the realistic images possible."<br /><br />My <a href="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5582">recent addiction</a> aside; I'm not much of a game player.
