[Q] Best apps+games to purchase with $25 gift voucher for Lumia 1320 - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got 1500INR (~$25) Microsoft gift card with Lumia 1320 that expires within 2 months.
=============================================================
Also I got these games free:
Asphalt 7: Heat
Modern Combat 4
N.O.V.A. 3
Order & Chaos
Shark Dash
Earthworm Jim
Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles
Let's Golf 2
Brain Challenge HD
Asphalt 8: Airborne (already free)
=============================================================
What are the best apps+games that I should purchase?
Currently I have WP8 and about in a month I will get WP8.1 so please suggest accordingly. for example: file manager will be included in WP8.1 so I guess no need to purchase one.
Also I have free version of Moliplayer from China store, so I guess no need to purchase a media player too.

if u like 3rd person brainless shooter, try halo i am also using collector as substitute for flipboard, which does not exist for wp (news). files is good file manager (free and no adds). mytube is imo best youtube client...

I already have NOVA 3 and Modern Comabt 4 for free, Halo is also similar type so I don't want that for now.
I got mytube for free few days back
Many Xbox games were also free in past few days, I missed those :/
I have free newshunt app which enough newspapers everyday.

Lol... You already have most of wp apps and games ?
Maybe ios or android phone as 2nd device?

heehee
1 device is enough for me, its as big as 2
I have used android a bit in the past, and my brother has ios.
I still have 25$ to spend on store. I wish I could get a memory card, cover or something else for that.
I'm thinking of getting a photoshop, though i'm not much of a photographer, but it will stay with me forever in future too when I switch to som eother windows phone, right?

I started playing it today and it is f***ing awesome so far.
Wondering if anyone has played or tried the game as well?
It comes highly recommended
Couldnt find it on the market. But its a great game, more then willing to pay for it. If only i could....
If you see paid other apps in Market and you can't find this game, it's probably because you're running Android 1.5 and you need Android 1.6+.
im running 1.6 and i get 0 search results for zenonia in the market app, and yes i have other paid apps, on the other hand i installed it from the blapk market and it works just fine....
After a few minutes playing it, the game doesn't seem to be that great tbh. No keyboard controls, which is a huge downside for me. Plus, you already have tons of emulators on Android, what makes this better than full roms?

Give it a few more minutes itll grow on you.
The developers want to mainstream the game, not just cater to us. Most newer android phones are all touch screen remember.
This game is brand new, its not from yesteryear like the games the emulators run.
The storyline, gameplay and controls are excellent and as the reviewers have mentioned they have already been more than satisfied with the game.
Is it only me or the game is still not up on the US market? I'm using Market Enabler to access the US T-mobile Market. Can someone help me with this?
Ended up finding a dl for it, but i cant install because im running out of space? it doesnt look like im running out of space anywhere though when i check my phone's internal storage. (SD card has 7 gb free..)

But can you find it from the Market?
found it by googling running the latest cyanogenmod on my g1. Has someone else gotten it to work from downloading elsewhere?

Got it working...turns out i actually didnt have enough space -_-...i thought 36 mb would be enough for a 9mb .apk....just deleted some useless apps and now it works great. still dont know why it doesnt show up in market though
SEE THE GAME TRAILER HERE ---->> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrsYbeVV0wM
Gamevil has noted (check their twitter) the problem and promises to find a workaround for it or to post it at Handango or something. For those who are support the devs, we just need a bit more patience
I'm running the latest version of CyanogenMod with an ext 2 partition on my sd card and I had no trouble installing it.
Not that far into it, but I suspect it may make a lot of bus journeys go quicker.
I think this is the 2nd best game on the G1 for people who thought Final Fantasy 6 (3 in the US) was the best of the series.
Best rpg on android! It run well on my g1
A very good RPG for the android.
I just wish the movement controls on my Droid were not so sensitive.
Gamevil has solved the problem It is now on the market. Go support Android devs people!

Android market vs apple app store.

Today i was looking at the market and realized. Why doesn't the android market have really good games like the apple app store? I have an iPod touch and I use that like my gaming/music device and my phone as a social device?
Anyway I got tired of having to carry both so I got the question of why android doesn't have so many good games..
Is android not that popular right now?
Really good apple app store games I like are stuff like real racing 2, Madden NFL 2011, and etc.... is android going to gets these soon?
Sent from my phone
it will depend how popular android will be. i believe more games will be on android platform, just matter of time.

The problem is that with android, developers can now run their own markets instead of having to rely on android market for distribution. That means You'll have to go to each developer (Gameloft, EA, etc) and buy from them directly. It sucks that games Real Racing 2 and Dead Space aren't on android yet, but stuff like GT Academy, Dungeon Defenders, and HAWX will tide you over till the big AAA titles finally get ported.
Edit: At least we get Angry Birds for free
One other factor could be that Android fans don't fork out cash like Apple fans do. Android fans persistently pursue free solutions where Apple fans might give in easier.
Free is what XDA has been all about for years. I have never paid for an app out of my pocket.

Hi,
Just so you know... The Paper Toss game you mention / list is NOT made by the original makers of the iPhone / Android Papertoss game. This is made by an independent developer "Herms Software" and the original is made by "Backflip Studios".
Although the "Herms Software" version is pretty good you should be careful what you state as the original has WAY more than 3 levels and is graphically superior. Also... Backflip Studios may get upset that you are stating there app is available for an OS that it is not compatable with.
Must Haves:
AlphaJax (scrabble, words with friends).
Full House Poker. brand new Xbox Live title with fullish integration with Xbox 360 title of the same name. And it's an avatar game.
Flight Control. Another Live title. Good times.
Bejeweled Live
CarneyVale
Max & The Magic Marker. Expensive Xbox Live title. Worth it imo.
Parachute Panic
Block Bouncer
Dropple
HELLO ROCKET! FREAKING LOVE THIS GAME.
I do like chicks & vixens or whatever its called

[APP] SJ7 (Sonic's Jewels 7) Master System/Game Gear emulator

Hey everyone I thought I would take the chance to tell everyone about a new emulator from Samuel Blanchard that is coming out! It is called Sonic's Jewels 7 it is a Master system/ Game Gear emulator! We have submitted it to the Marketplace and hopefully it passes certification! it should be out within 6 days! Check here http://www.wpcentral.com/sega-gamegear-master-emulator-way-windows-phone-marketplace and our facebook page for the latest info! https://www.facebook.com/WarioJewels7
Edit: SJ7 has been released onto the marketplace! Get it here! http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/5031fb24-830a-40e5-b756-f08395775c87
A version with bug fixes and sound will be submitted very soon!
What's the difference between the Trial and the Full version ?
Damn, what we really need is a Genesis/Megadrive one.

I am looking forward to when you release it!
There was some great master system games/Game gear (Phantasy star, one of my all time fav games) and there was even a version of Sonic for the master system (if you have the complete cart it's worth some good $$, they are pretty rare).
Personaly I would love to see a Genesis Emulator more but, NES is just getting complete now (vNES light runs awsome now my my 1st gen device) NES/Master system are on the same level 8 bit.
So Next gen should be SNES and Genesis. You also run into a problem, more buttons are not easy to do on a touch screen.
I do look forward to testing this version, as long as it's running at full speed with sound on a 1st gen device then I would be something I am am interested in.

Just bought it and added some games, gotta love SkyDrive integration. I'll be playing some Alex Kidd In Miracle World
Can't wait to try this later!
I don't suppose the developer would like to revisit the original Wario Jewels project? I'm dreaming of a GameBoy Color emulator on the Marketplace, and wasting several hundred hours on the Zelda games... ;-)

I grabbed it too, Phantasy Star, just epic. Sorry but, the missing sound really kills it.
Any ETA when sound will be available and what type of performance hit it will cause on first gen devices ?

Is a GBA emulator totally impossible in WP7?
GPSP, a GBA emulator for Symbian S60 v5 on my old Nokia 5530 worked pretty well...
With sound you'll loose one or two frames (depend of the game and your device) but it's always playable and much more immersive
I've making some test with a GBA emulator. it works but it is very slow. You must understand that "normal" Apps and Games on WP7 running on a virtual machine and not access directly the CPU. This is a bottle neck to develop apps who needs all the power of CPU.
Again, When will the update with the sound be out ? Can I expect it in a few days or a few weeks ?
Also, can you get your skydrive support to sync game saves too ?
From facebook a few hours ago...

I understand, but can't you also offload some of the work to the GPU? I'm just wondering, hope you can manage a working GBA emulator on WP7!
Also, if I could make a recommendation, controls would be much better if they were dynamically placed in relation to the position of the fingers.
A perfect example of what I'm talking about are the controls in the Xbox Live "Z0MBIES (on the ph0ne), the "Relative Controls" option in the settings. I can't play without that option, and Sonic's Jewels would be much better with that setting!
it seems the store rejected it . it the app opensource ? or can you tell if it's a 100% C# application ?

Gaming Thread

Surprised no one's started this one yet. Just a thread for gamers to post what's working and what isn't. Also, to share about any titles that you particularly love. I'm always on the look out for new high quality games. I love FPS and RPG. Not a big fan of strategy which kinda sucks cuz there's SO many out there. Anyway, once I get mine (should be Monday), I'm loading up Deus Ex: The Fall, NOVA 3, Modern Combat 4 (and maybe 5), maybe a couple of Final Fantasy ones, the Bard's Tale, Iesabel, Dead Trigger 2, Temple Run, Super hexagon, Fluid SE, Playstation emu, GBA emu, and whatever else I'm not remembering right now. Anyone else have good ideas? Or other games I should try? Can't wait for Exiles to come out--that's the new massive single player RPG by the same people who gave us Ravesword Shadowlands.
Anyway, thanks for sharing!!
check out the Kingdom Rush series. their latest was just released last night and it's fun as hell.
I bought xcom enemy within last week on my Note 3. I intended to play it on a road trip this week, but they don't support Nexus 6. I copied it over from a titanium backup and restored it, and it runs, but the graphics in the gameplay are really messed up. So I bought Icewind Dale to play instead. It seems to work. Never played it back in the day so looking forward to it.
XModgames does not work at all for me, I am rooted. Anyone else have luck?
Soul Calibur runs great on this phone! Also, it is on sale for $4!

Try Modern Combat 5. It has some intensive graphics. It lagged on G3 a big time. So thinking about its performance on Nexus 6. I've pre-ordered my Nexus 6 but it's yet to come. Here it'll launch on the 2nd week of December
U know, it's weird. I played that game on the lg G3 and it ran GREAT. Thing is, I'm not to crazy about the changes they made from part 4. These super short missions, with specific goals u have to complete. It just seems too controlled. I like part 3 and 4--it's a bit more "open" to however u want to play. Just kill everyone and don't die...lol. Seems simpler. I think they tried to make it too much like dead trigger 2 and the execution wasn't as great. It could just be me--I don't know. You're right about the graphics tho, they are awesome.
EDIT: I meant to quote the post above mine about MC 5. Don't know why it didn't work.
Haven't gotten mine yet. Can someone check to see if Mass Effect Infiltrator is compatible? I liked that game but haven't been able to play it in a while because of incompatibilities.

U know, it's so ridiculous what EA has done (or more appropriately, hasn't done) with this game. I've had sooooo many devices that I don't remember the last one it worked on but I kno it hasn't worked for a LONG time for me on A LOT of devices. Really sucks cuz it was a good game. If u ask me EA is being really stupid. If they updated it, it would still be selling.

I know, same here. I don't remember the last device it worked on. I like console quality games like this. It's a shame they put something out there so good and just move on to something else and leave us hangin. It wouldn't be so bad but really good games are few and far between.

Not all EA games. I'm only talking about mass effect infiltrator.
Hey all. Just got crescent moons new RPG, exiles. Its a SciFi themed ravensword shadowlands. It's available through one of their humble bundle packages. Just Google it, if interested.
EDIT: been playing it and it's still buggy... It's an alpha tho.
Got my nexus today! So far......

Injustice gods among us
Nova 3 - *edit* - played fine but come back later to play more and would not start.
Need for speed most wanted
Castle of illusions
All work fine.
Ah! The horror... Temple run doesn't work!
I downloaded Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and NBA Jam, both of which crash/fail to load on my Nexus 6. I thought it may have been due to my changing DPI, but reverting the DPI resulted in the games still failing to play.
Anyone have any luck playing these games on their N6s?
NFS MW works
Assassins Pirates no dice
Peggle booyah!!!!
NBC Live is giving me problems, freezes right before playing.
HBO, Netflix, ESPN, PS Tube downloader all work
Castle Clash works but it runs like crap!!
