Yeah, that's pretty much how it goes for my cell, too. Some games are a single time dl, others have a small fee, maybe 2 or 3 dollars per month. Usually there is a multi-player option and other good stuff. I'd suggest seeing if there is something like a contents page or "network" and then rummaging around for "games", after which you can DL. Most games cost 3-6. Tetris, pool and bowling games seem to be the least clunky, aside from card games. Hell, my phone has Pac-Man and it's a blast.

I had Monopoly on my old phone and I have Pac Man on my current phone. It's good entertainment when I'm sitting somewhere with nothing else to do. Like when I'm on the crapper.

That is usually when I am 'working on my phone'... I will NEVER forget the time I was playing whatever was a demo on my phone, I get a call from my wife, so I take the call... get the usual, 'what are you doing' (keep in mind this was a full bathroom at this point), and I say... "Well, I'm just sitting here, working some $hit out."

The ENTIRE bathroom busted up in laughter !!! Guy in the stall next to me was like "Chuckle....... FART..... hahahahahahahahaha" I guess the poor bastich just couldnt keep it in. :lol:

It's an amazing game and totally worth picking up. I was in love with it from the moment I played the demo for the 360. I don't think they changed too much between the xbox and PS3 versions, so it should be just as good.

I need to get back into that one as well. One level had me stuck for weeks, finally stumbled out of it and have not been back since... sounds like something to do tonight (or dedicate time to finishing F.E.A.R. or work on Prince of Persia or Rise of the Argonauts and then there is always all of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games :!: )

Nintendo did a fantastic job with that one, I sure hope they do a follow up to it.

I would also love to play another Zelda or Metroid game on the Wii.

DONE... the challenge is ON. I can see it getting SO crazy that no matter the number/type of towers, bloons would get by.

Finally got a Wii in November.

Just got through with Clone Wars for the Wii. The perfect single player length for a rental (10-15 hours in the single player modes). Graphics, sound, controls, levels and the overall feel was great. Perfectly captured the feel of lightsaber combat from the prequels and show (I couldn't stop doing Jedi leaps over pits and objects when I figured out you could do that LOL). And the touches from the show were amazing (right down to Nute Gunray begging for you to make a deal with him from his cell as you duel on The Tranquility) The game just needed a bit more to it. Obviously there's not a lot of lightsaber wielding characters missing from the first half of the season (only Yoda, Luminara and Nadar aren't in the game) but more levels and modes would've helped.

Also finished just off Kid Icarus on Virtual Console. Never played it before but glad the VC gave me the chance to experience it. Great classic adventure game, especially with the VC suspend feature.

Still working on WiiSports, trying to get to "Pro" on all five sports. For a simple game this one can last you a long time and never get old. Always hated sports games but I'm super stoked everytime I boot up WiiSports. Great stuff.
