I have a bunch of good games on my phone. Some of them are even computer games that will run on the phone. I have a PlayStation emulator with Gran Turismo 2 loaded on right now. There are Nintendo emulators, Genesis, etc, etc.

Emulators can be rough. Some work and some just don't. I have had good luck with fpsece10(playstation) but I have never found a good Nintendo one. Every one I try is broken or never loads correctly.

what about the android marketplace? there are a lot of fun FREE games on there to download is it possible to download them onto the touch pro? or a hack that makes them run on the touch pro? im having trouble finding something of quality and not just cheap amateurish ones

android applications areusually .apk and will not run on winmo. maybe some gaming developers can "convert" them but doubtful.

yea thats what i figured. i just hate the windows market place cuz all the stuff on there costs money they dont have any good free stuff really. is there another marketplace or portal that can be used to download similar apps?

See the thing is that most people that use and develop for WinMo are professionals or in a professional environment. So the programs that tend to get made are apps that will help in the business world. Were as iPhone and Android are more kid oriented. Not saying that everybody that buys one of these two phones are child or are simple minded. It's just the marketing that has been used to sell these two phone (more the iPhone) are based more toward the younger generation which are into these stupid pointless apps. Yes they are free but they are simple and a good programmer can pump them out in a day or two.

Now I'm a gamer I enjoy a good FPS and driving games. Do I have these types of programs on my phone? Sure do. At the same time I never really play them and if I do it will be for a minute or so then I'm bored since the controls are never right. It could be I'm picky since I like to play on the PC were the controls are pretty much limitless.
