"Mobile phone games WILL beat GBA this year!"

Saw the end of a game show on itv1 the other day. They had a brand new modile on it with a MotoGP like game running. I know I have said the GBA was not good as expected, and this proves it. This MotoGP clone on this new mobile looked far more realistic, sharper, than any GBA racer. This was at least as good as PS1. This new mobile is due out a bit later this year. If it can handle racers that well, then slower games are going to be no problem what so ever.

Cor-rect.

That only complete mongs don't use it, because texting is much "cooler"?

Anyway - Why text when you could phone the person and say what you want to say in half the time for half the cost?

Well, even though many people might indeed have pc online access near them much of the day - point is they prefer to text on the mobile. What does this tell us about the internet then?

What sort of fool spells 'phone' with an 'f'?

But half the people sit there right next to a computer, or at home texting away.

I've seen my sister texting about 5 messages, when she could quite easily send one, then go talk on MSN as much as she likes without having to worry about bills etc.

I've even seen people texting across classrooms, one of the times in an ICT room with a bloody computer right infront of them.

It's just stupid!

ahh, but MSN is online - you need to plug into a land line. SMS is mobile. I know it's not the same thing, but I am just saying you cant compare the 2 things.

Phones won't take on the GBA, who will develop games for a phone?

The GBA costs £60, one of these flashy phones costs over £300!

GBA is developed purely for games, a phone will not be able to better it, if it does, you'll expect something the size of an Xbox with a chest strap to allow you to carry it...

Phones = Talk
GBA = Games

Your right why play games on phones when I have my trusty GBA

Sado/s

Phones are for phoning people and texting.

Not for playing games.

Idiot/s.

I bought a phone. Haven't ever sent a stupid text message (MSN is just as good and free). I just use it to ring my parents when I want to meet up, get them to take me back if I don't want to take the bus etc.

Personal taxi service.

Haven't used it for over a month though.
