Brothers in Arms from Gameloft in App Catalog

Complex Pants · 01/27/2010, 06:43 PM

Yup...more games!

clevin · 01/27/2010, 06:44 PM

Great

still, im still patiently waiting for might & magic 8 and Heroes of might and magic 3...

I hope gameloft read here!

This game will be terrible on the Palm Pre's tiny screen, shame on Gameloft for rereleasing these titles on a cramped screen phone just for extra profit. You guys don't know any better anyway, assuming you haven't played Assassins Creed or Modern Combat on a iPod/iPhone.

Just curious, do you do anything but complain? The screen on the iphone is 3.5... the screen on the pre is 3.1... that .4 isn't going to ruin anything...

Here is comparison on the sizes... http://www.precentral.net/palm-pre-s...ize-comparison

I think you just love to complain about everything pre... I haven't seen anything else that says different.

Yes, I am serious. They game player user experience is worse on the smaller screen. The onscreen controls will take up at least 1/3 of the screen.

Thats nearly half an inch, of course it will make a difference. It's cramped enough on the 3.5" screen.

Ruhi · 01/27/2010, 06:56 PM

I just looked at the screen shots... It doesn't look like it would be any kind of a problem for me. Do you have extremely fat fingers by chance?

Unbelievable... software companies can't win with some people

Either they aren't releasing games quickly enough, or enough of them... or they get criticized for releasing the wrong games "just for profit". Um.. guess what... that's what companies need to survive. Instead of whining at them and saying "shame on them"... how about saying a big "Thank You" for jumping in and starting to port games over to WebOS! Gameloft has been moving faster than any other company at getting us 3D games - how about showing some positive feedback and give them even more reason to work with WebOS? /rant

should I assume you played it on a pre already?

or should I just read all your posts here and figure out that you are just here to bash everything Pre and praise apple?

should I even think about which might be true?

follow your logic, why even bother play any game on iPhone, android, pre, PSP, DSi. or whatever small screen?

may I suggest you stop making statement based on absolutely zero handson experience?

Some games do work out on the Palm Pre, mainly the racing. Just imagine playing GTA on the Palm Pre. Those controls are harder to use than the joystick. On the Pre you would be pressing left and right at the same time.

My fingers aren't fat at all, they are kinda thin but long since I'm 6'2"

If you want to struggle playing this game and possibly not enjoy it, go right ahead. Like I said before, you wouldn't know any better in the first place.

as you, A.K.A. iphone user, know better from ZERO hands-on experience with a Pre.

I'm fascinated about how you think you can just treat people here like idiots?

for a guy who use a phone that has no basic multitasking, i guess I should say "you wouldn't know any better" too?

seriously, what are you here for? just say "nonono" to everything about Pre and not-so-gentally suggest you have a superior iPhone 3GS?

thanks but no thanks, you aren't really approaching the problem the right way right now.

Now this is a posting! If you look at the comparison... you'll see the difference is minuscule at best... I would like to see the pre 2's screen upgraded to the 3.7" screen on the Droid, till then we're good!

Gameloft.... as I mentioned in my review on the free Asphalt 5 game.... I personally say thanks for the great... great games, please keep them coming.

Heed this man's word... only gets worse from here on out

influenze · 01/27/2010, 08:16 PM

ok so has anyone downloaded this game and played it yet? it looks great, but a review would be nice

rashad1 · 01/27/2010, 08:19 PM

It's simply my opinion, take it or leave it. Like I said before racing games are fine, they require little action with the touchscreen. Shooting games however require both tumbs on the screen at all times. How much of a field of vision does that leave you with, how will navigating through the maps feel? Like I said, purely my opinion.

Brothers at Arms might not be so bad since there only seems to be one action button. But more complex games such as Modern Combat might prove to be more difficult to play since there are more buttons/actions in use.

**HelloNNNewman** · 01/27/2010, 08:20 PM

Agreed... no more feeding the troll... let the thread die now instead of keeping it going. Of course, by me saying that I just kept the thread going... dagnabbit!
