Attention N-Gage and N-Gage QD owners: the acclaimed pirate-themed strategy game High Seize is now just €9.99 via download at the N-Gage Game Shop. Arcade game Mile High Pinball and martial arts simulator One are also still available at the reduced price of €9.99.
One week on, mid-August, and we've found plenty to keep you interested and challenged. Here's the AllAboutSymbian Week in Review, if you're in a hurry to catch up...
I haven't mentioned this for a while, but I've been doing lots of little updates to my (hopefully comprehensive) S60 device comparison table. From 7650 to N93, and from free RAM to camera resolution...
If you're an N-Gage or N-Gage QD owner, you might like to know that the N-Gage Gameshop has slashed the download price of Nokia's acclaimed 3D martial arts game ONE to €14.95 (about £10). This follows on the heels of their equally acclaimed arcade game Mile High Pinball, which remains at last month's sale price of €9.99.
With the arrival of the Nokia E70 and N93, it's been a busy week at AAS towers.... The first part of our N93 review should be live on Monday, but until then here's what you missed if you fell asleep in the sun for the last seven days...
Travis Boatman (formerly Jamdat, now part of EA after their accquistion) sat down with MobileIndustry.biz to talk about the mobile gaming space on phones and what the major probelms are (along with what EA is up to). In short? The networks and distribution mechanisms haven't kept up with key developments in other areas.
I've been revising and reworking my review of Virtual Pool Mobile and, after six months of daily playing, ask the question: with perfect gameplay, immersive graphics, accurate physics and game longevity - is the best S60 game ever?
As always, here's the AllAboutSymbian Week in Review. It's been an exciting one in many ways, with the arrival for review of the E70 and N93, both of which should be featured heavily next week. In the meantime, here's what you've missed if you haven't been paying attention over the last 7 or so days....
N-Gage and N-Gage QD owners can now buy and download the rather excellent N-Gage exclusive arcade game Mile High Pinball for just €9.99 from Nokia's online gameshop. Hopefully this heralds the start of more sensible pricing on Nokia's behalf, and some excellent value titles for N-Gage owners.
Here is the AAS Week in Review. Recognising that it's easy to miss a few days and fall behind with what's new on All About Symbian, we do a weekly round-up of new content and news on the site in the last 7 or so days. If you're really pushed for time, this is the weekly list of articles and links to check out.
