Phone Video games

I recently got a Razer phone and noticed you have to buy the games if you want them. Any suggestions from people who have bought some? I was thinking Tiger Woods 2005 looked good. I was also kinda curious about the WPT Poker game.

Don't pay 4 bucks a month for some lame game on a small screen. If you want to play on the run buy yourself a portable video game (I don't know which might be better, but they are bound to be better than the crap that's available for phones).

Is it really 4 bucks/month? I was under the impression it was 6 bucks, one time.

I don't know for sure. I have Verizon and when I got my current phone I played around with the downloadable games, ring tones etc. From what I found I think they would charge me a usage fee of like 2-5 bucks per month for as long as I wanted to play the game. I might have been confused, it happens more and more these days.

Edit...

Ok, I just checked it out again and I guess you can either do the one time download for $7 (for Fantastic Four, whee) or you can do a monthly subscription for $3 per month. I guess for a one time fee of $7 its not too cost prohibitive, but it still seems like a scam when considering how lame these games on 1-inch screens are.

I was wondering this too. They have TONS of sweet sounding games. I'm sure the next trip I'm on I'll get bored enough to try one.

I got cribbage and I haven't been dissapointed. Its nice for random boring periods of time (layovers etc.) I'm sure like chess/tetris could be fun too.

/edit Verizon games (at least the ones I looked at) it was $3/mo or unlimited for $7 (or some variation)

I have Tetris and Pacman on my Verizon phone, I think those are two of the best games you can get on a cellphone right now. I had a p*ker game once called Downtown Texas Hold'em that absolutely sucked balls which leads me to believe the WPT game wouldn't be much better.
