Gaming / emulator news as of 06/15/2007
It was some 20 days ago that I published my last installment of Gaming news. Let�s see what happened in the meantime and what should you immediately go purchase before the rebate is over.
First, three EXCELLENT games (two of them even having a MS Smartphone version!) for half the price today. Go get them � they are ALL highly recommended.
- Orions: Legend of Wizards, by far the best turn-based strategy game ever released for Windows Mobile (see my Strategy Guide HERE), is available HERE for $9.98 (unfortunately, there's no MS Smartphone version of the game)
- SkyForce Duo PPC (SkyForce and SkyForce Reloaded combined) is available HERE (for the MS Smartphone, HERE) for $12.00 only
In addition, an important remark for gaming fans: Should you ever need more games for your Pocket PC (let alone MS Smartphone), emulation is a GREAT way of playing. Don�t forget to check out my gaming console / home computer emulator reviews � I�ve published several of them in the last few days!
Now, for the regular news.
Emulator news, new releases:
- A new, 0.25 version of SmartGear, one of the best, fastest and, what is even better, MS Smartphone-compatible emulators has been released. It fixes the VGA issues I�ve mentioned in the review of the previous, 0.24 version.
- Masterall, developer of several EXCELLENT emulators (also supporting MS Smartphone) has also released some interesting stuff:
- FinalBurn 0.10, THE CPS 1/2 and NeoGeo emulator for WM, was released the day before yesterday
- the first version of GBACE, a brand new GBA emulator
Games news:Remarkable, must-read reviews (in addition to the above-linked ones):
Pocket Heroes, the great, new strategy game:
Additional MS Smartphone news
QVGA (high-res) Smartphone users will especially like the article Ever wanted to know how you can use low-res (176*220) titles on your hi-res (240*320) QVGA Smartphone?. Finally, again, don't forget to read my MS Smartphone-related remarks in my new emulator-related articles - there are SEVERAL really nice emulators (for example, those of Masterall, SmartGear and PocketHobbitSP2003) worth giving a try! They run great even on low-end, 176*220 Smartphones!
