The droid can handle them very well but not the evo ticks me off... and the ds and psp comments are childish as well, isnt that we try to have the best smartphones to cover most our needs wthout extra devices? Following your train of thought i can say

why should it browse the web? Thats what my laptop is for

gps isnt important, thats why i have my tomtom

Music? Thats dumb, what are ipods for?

Personally i can wait for a fix or a ota addresing the issue since its not that big of a deal to me, but not everyones use for the device is your own...

The FACT is...A phone isn't made for gamin PERIOD
whatever gamin a phone can handle is just an added bonus to be honest

I cannot agree, i had the ngage qd and it played tony hawk pro skater 2 pretty well, i spent many hours on it. Way ahead of its time, just had. Terrible form factor.

I dont know why ppl complain about 3d gaming when so far, all 3d game have sucky controls. Im no htc sheep, but i knew what i was getting into here, a powerful cpu and a big screen. I personally think of 3d gaming as a unlisted benefit.

Go download radiant lite and stop the complaining ppl, all touch means 3d games werent a priority.

Care to elaborate more on this so called "FACT"? If you want to use a phone that has features meant for a phone, you definitly need a dumbphone without a camera then. Smartphones like iOS, Android and such were meant to expand the functionality to no limit, so why cant gaming be one of those things? Features like gps, camera, fm radio, mp3 and movie playback, compass, and many other features were added to smartphones so what makes gaming so different? Im no itroll but seems like apple has had success with it. Besides, phones has had games before touchscreens, cameras, and even color screens...

Again, personally its not that important to me but seems like people are bothered when other people think it would be nice

If you guys wasn't informed about this cap, would you realized that it's capped at 30fps? This phone runs fine capped at 30fps to me and I have games I play on it. If they do fix this, would be a bonus

I am sure the average person that buys these phones doesn't even know what 30fps is much less noticing the difference between 30fps and 60fps.

its a non issue for me, what i dont get is that when an issue like this is presented, instead of saying "i dont mind since i dont play games anyway" people go as far as say " games should not be in phones in the first place" see the difference?

I still enjoy my evo and would not trade it for an iphone since the drawbacks will be much more
