This thread included a poll: Which upcoming N-Gage game are you MOST looking forward to?

All of the games from beta testing have now been re-released, so N-Gage releases from now on will be brand new titles. Which one are you looking forward to the most?

Dirk Dagger is the only game I feel is "worthy", in the sad absence of RPGs (Rifts) and turnbased strategy games.

Of course, they need to release a compatible N-Gage phone I like too, and right now my eyes are mostly focused on 6220 Classic which isn't, unfortunately.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to Dirk Dagger too. It should be something quite unique.

We don't know if it is or not. I think it will be compatible.

Yeah, I hope it will be compatible. I see no reason for it not to be compatible. But somehow I remains pretty skeptic regarding it anyway.

It is odd that Nokia don't announce it, and like you I've had my eye on the 6220.

But one reason to be optimistic is the 5320 XpressMusic, which has been announced as N-Gage compatible. It shows Nokia is expanding this beyond Nseries devices.

Yeah, 5320 is good news 😊 Affordable N-Gage for the masses.

But to me it also seems like a 5xxx music/game version of 6120. They are both very similiar devices, both from size and hardware. 5320 just got a 3.5mm jack instead and some extra buttons (and some extra RAM and slightly larger battery). Maybe we will see a 5xxx version of 6220 eventually too with 5mp camera, xenon flash, GPS and TV-out.

Personally I think Nokia would be crazy not to put N-Gage on all their upcoming S60 devices.

Technically they can all do N-Gage, so it would be stupid not to include N-Gage compatibility.

Agreed 😊

Technically they could do a lot of things including getting N-gage to work on their top of the range n95 8gb phone for everyone but they didnt!

N-Gage forums..........LOL!!!!!!

I don't think they'd fail to do it deliberately, technical hitches are pretty much unavoidable on a brand new platform.

The reason we're so frustrated is because they are deliberately not putting the platform on models such as the 6120.
