Windows Phone 7

[broncoFan!]

Okay I was curious if anyone knows anything about this phone I'm looking for, it's called the Windows Phone 7. What I am impressed with it is that it is not only an Ipod but it also can be my Xbox so I could be anywhere in the world pretty much and I would be able to play BlackOps or Halo Reach or whatever game I wanted. I am impressed.

Any advice? I was going to get an Iphone until I found out about these phones.

You think you're going to be able to play Xbox360 games on a cellphone?





By the way, Windows is Windows. Droid is Droid.

Oh my bad lol I honestly have never owned a phone before. No reason to lol. But look at this pic, apparently it does have Xbox live.

You won't be able to play those games, but you will be able to play games on your phone... I kinda like the layout style of the new windows phones... My Droid Incredible is using the Windows layout...

lol, i'm sure by xbox live it means just some app store type.

You can probably play games on it like Limbo on XBL, definitely not actual 360 games. Though, I think the graphics are better on Windows Phone 7, then they are on the original DS.

Ohh what a big letdown. Pfft guess that goes to show my experience with phones. Not buying that lame phone then.

So you really thought a phone could play Xbox 360 games?

How would the controls work exactly?

Hey what can I say lol I saw XBOX Live & I have never owned a phone before. You could do like a split screen I guess. That would be really interesting actually.... mark it! I'm coming out with a phone where we can play Halo or Black Ops!!!!

The windows 7 phone is suppose to have xbox live integration which means xbl games like braid etc as time moves on. It will not be able to play 360 games either, but it probably play the first xbox games if microsoft took the time to port them over. You can also talk to your friends etc on xbl.

The nice thing of the phone is easy portability from xbl to the phone itself, the bad thing is this is the worst phone market share wise out of the big 4 (not counting nokia). Only 1.6 million total sales of all windows 7 phones and the older windows mobile style phones outsold them last quarter.

There are a lot of games that have virtual joysticks that work on the touch screen phones, its clunky but that is the case. Also just like the other ones i have seen, there would probably be an 360 controller you could plug around your phone to use. It probably have an empty shell like this




Since both sony and xbox have stated the next console probably wont come out till 2014, I would not be surprise if there is phone out by then powerful enough to play console games. The only thing holding phones back is battery life and internal heat.
