Poorly made free games VS paying for quality |

I've paid for all of the games I have on my phone because I'm looking for a few games that are really good and I enjoy playing.
I've noticed a huge community of people who only want free games. I avoid them because i assume they suck.
Do you pay for games or do you just download the free ones?
If you refuse to pay for the games, why?

i thinkeez we are having problems between freeware games and commercial games (that can mostly be downloaded for free), ofcourse this is not encouraged by esato (i think). But yes, i don't pay for games...i either get other people to send them to me after they have payed for them, or i get them off other people that have already downloaded them (the free illegal way).

If the games would be cheaper, more ppl would take those on legal way imo

i download the frewe games, as i think it is redicilous to pay £5 for a game that i will finish playing in 1 or 2 days... that money i can use much better.

I have baught a few games, and have also downlaoded a few free games. TBH their are winners and loosers on both sides. One or two of the free games are real gems, where as some of the games you pay for are quite litterally rubbish.
The best way would be to get a recomendation before you get the game. Maybe an Estato list of games worth having would be a good idea. |

I have a blog that I use to write about games I've played. Friends of mine contribute and post cool/bad games. If anyone has any suggestions for games to write about let me know. I'm constantly updating it.

If anyone has any suggestions about games I should write about let me know. If you can write a little post for me that would be super cool too!
Let me know, cheers!
I just got a new game and I wrote a review on it...FIFA World Cup 2006. Word to the wise: It sucks. Here is a list of games I really liked:

The free games are usually just the games you pay for, but have been illegaly made free... Though of course there will be games that have been made to be free. But no one really cares mate so don't worry about getting in trouble or anything, since most people do it.

You guys know anyone who develops free mobile games? I found a forum on that kind of thing...I wonder if they can make their own games.

Probably some smart dudes.

Have to agree with Rhino8, I couldn't be bothered paying for games. Back when I owned a K700 mobile gaming was still cool but since I've moved on to Symbian phones I find that they're getting crap.
But yeah my favourite game developer is still Gameloft.

hey, great site !! thumbs up... keep up the good work !
i agree that 'Fifa world cup 2006' is a pretty bad game.. way too easy... for football games, '2006 real football' cannot be beat...
re the topic.. yes, i've bought games before... as well as download them... worse part is when i've paid for a game, then realise you could have 'got' them free on certain sites... 
nothing worse than paying for a game, which turns out to be really crap... vodafone in aust, has a service whereby you can pay for a bloody demo...

Gameloft has some incredible games.
I'm currently trying to find a good poker game.
