Yeah I really hate 'game' and what a damn stupid name! I know they have actually called it something now but why release it without a name.
I know it's not a playstation but the advantage of having a phone with tetris or another good game is that I don't have to carry a gameboy around for those boring bus / tube journeys

I like erix & ripple. Let's hope they won't touch them.

True, but, did you also know, that it has been documented, that, the most popular video game of all time, Game Boy and Sega included, is "Snake" on the Nokia?
Games have a place on phones !!  |

'Snake' is a \"chapeau bas\".

If thats true then I think ericsson should put some more work into the extremely crappy version on our phones! Is it actually possible to change the speed? or difficulty? I think ericsson should do the game some justice. I'm sure nokia would have grounds to sue ericsson for this and i'm sure the only reason that they are getting out of it at the moment is because it isn't documented on any ericsson sites nor is it officially called snaker anywhere.
Also in regards to tetris I've just had the game muck up on me again! sometimes it'll let me levitate the squares in mid air, choose their position and then drop them into place. Maybe ericsson couldn't handle the programming in making quality games for mobile phones.

It's probably because they cannot afford to pay royalties for the game. Simple. |

it IS kinda stupid, I mean the first game in Ericsson was Tetris, it's kind of an Ericsson trademark... like snake is to Nokia... pretty dumb for them to erase it... but I suppose they had their reasons...  |

Tetris is absolutely the best game ever in a mobile phone. Tetris is the thing which makes a phone an Ericsson.

Answer is simple all previous versions of the software were betas, ericsson had a lot of space left over because mms was taken out. So as not to waste that space, ericsson put in an extra game and now they took it out again.
