Whether you are a fan of PDA, handhelds, smartphones or just the plain old cell phones there are some things which we all like! While some might love the scrolling menu of the Windows Mobile 6, some likes the overall experience of smartphones powered by the Series 60 platform. I am total sucker for Symbian OS smartphones when compared to the Windows Mobile devices for a reason and that reason is that unlike the Windows Mobile, Symbian have much more innovative and user friendly products. Additionally, while Windows Mobile do not have the raw power of the MoPhun Games Launcher, the Symbian Series 60 does!! Hence, today I am publishing a bonanza, a feast, for all you Windows Mobile haters and Symbian OS lovers.

Today my good friends, I am giving you two choices!! You can only opt to play one at a time and you have to choose what you want the most.

I am publishing a hefty collection of Mophun platform based mobile games which you will be able to save and edit or in other words, play at will. Yes, like the title says, I am also including the famous and super funny strategy based handhelds game, Worms World Party!! Remember, if you do not know it already, MoPhun Games Launcher and Worms World Party will not work together on your smartphones so choose wisely and live well.

However, before doing all that I feel you should know what exactly MoPhun is. We all know that with the power of Mophun Games Launcher installed on our Series 60 3rd edition smartphones we are now able to play several mobile games of S60 version 2 or Symbian OS 8.2 on our 3rd edition Nokia mobile phones. Now let me tell you what exactly MoPhun is, MoPhun is an open source Software Development Kit or SDK based on the programming environment of Java C or C++, through which open sourced mobile games and Java powered MIDP 1 or MIDP 2 mobile phone applications can be developed. I know, a bit technical but from everything I said, the summary is that MoPhun is an open source, java powered and quite independent platform. Thanks to the MoPhun, that we are finally able to play excellent mobile games like Lock n Load or Rally Pro Contest.

Now that you have an idea about MoPhun and its functions you can ask me specific things about what exactly I am publishing today. Today, like i said above, I am publishing several games along with MoPhun. The games include Worms World Party, Anarchy Boxing mobile 3D, Carmageddon, Da Vinci Code, Fatal Arena, Football Pro Contest, Mighty Joe’s Treasure Contest, Lock ‘n Load Combat Arena, Lock and Load Rise of the War, Lock n load 2, Martial Arts and finally the Rally Pro Contest 3D. All these games are extremely fun to play, specially all the Lock n Load episodes, Joe’s Treasure Quest and Rally Pro Contest. It is quite impossible for me to review each one these free mobile games individually so I will leave it up to you to provide feedback on them, however I will review one of my favorite mobile games of all time, The Worms World Part for Nokia symbian phones.

The MoPhun Games:

In Worms World Party, might I say it is the funniest mobile game in the whole world you play as the hands of pesky worms that are creeping and crawling everywhere. There are fire fights almost everywhere and loads of weapons on your arsenal. In this long and most eventful symbian mobile game you can choose to play as the general of all Worms on your planet and lead them to battle, glory and what not! Even if you die you get to choose how you want to design your epitaph so that you can rest in peace. What makes Worms World Party for Nokia so damn appealing?

First and foremost in Worms World Party you have more than 18 randomly generated levels or episodes, meaning no episodes are usually repeated and for all of them there are randomly generated elements. So the pathway to glory for each level is very different than the last one and from everyone else who are your friends and playing this game. This is a turn based strategy centered action mobile game. Worms World Party have all the elements you can hope for, fun, action and cool visual graphics, not high definition HD but they are really good. Since the levels are all randomly generated, different phones with different resolutions will have them all different but being random anyway, there is no room for improvement left in terms of creativity. Being a worm you will have access to tanks, bazookas and heavy machine guns and you will even have to wear a helmet during battles, aye aye capitano!! The single player mode will offer you several training sessions where you can learn to plan, execute certain tactics, decisions, creativity etc and employ them on the actual battle. You also have the option to play death matches and games based on a specific mission. Beside all these Worms World Party for Nokia N-gage and other Series 60 phones also lets you customize your worms to the very bones, errr… I know, Worms doesn’t have bones! But yes you get to customize your weapons collection and make them unique which is another nifty feature of this game. You also even get to name your favorite Worms!!

What do you win when the dust settles? A lot! Imagine this: You (The Worm) being the king of an entire collection of different types of fruits or you can even be the Captain/legend of lalaland. The way the worms move is another funny thing to follow honestly and half the day you will spend laughing outta your socks seeing that. This being a multiplayer game, Worms World Party, just like Worms 3D or Worms Fort is certainly one of the very best of game ever made for your Nokia!

The Worms World Party:

Once again, both of them will not work on your phone at the same time. Please remember that these games are mobile network operator independent and will work with all GSM and WCDMA providers.

I already published Worms Fort and Worms 3D earlier in different posts. Cheers!

Sometimes when you want something the most because it is of that important to you, ironically you never get it! It has been the story of my life since I can remember and I am pretty sure that I am not the only one with this issue. While none of us can get rid of all the problems of our life with the push of a button, with the application installed on your handheld mobile and smartphones devices of Nokia and others, you will be able to get rid at least one sure problem!! Voice logging or call logging at office, home, outside or even in a courtroom can be the most important thing in your life and it is that easy to do it. However, most of us are kinda careless about it and when we need to prove what person X promised to person Y we never get it done! Read the full story

Greetings everyone! I know all of us here more or less love watching television. However do we always get the time we need to catch our favorite shows when it is happening? Not always! Me, I usually never get enough time to catch any of my favorite TV shows or movies and that sucks! However, finally I must say that I am most relieved because I found a gem of a mobile phone or smartphones/handhelds application or software which will turn your N-Series or E-Series Nokia phone into a Mobile TV!!

How does it all happen? How exactly do we watch the TV channels? Do we watch it live or they are merely clips of recorded programs which we have to download to watch? Obvious questions I know, but with this Mobile TV Nokia application you will be able to catch your favorite shows live on your symbian series 60 cell phones and smartphones. It uses the GSM GPRS or 3G or even 3.5G mobile internet connectivity for streaming the channel feeds. The faster the connectivity of your mobile phone, the better the streaming or digital multimedia quality, simple as that. You can choose to watch your favorite mobile tv shows in widescreen or landscape mode or in the normal vertical mode. The overall audio quality of this mobile tv application again depends on your mobile internet speed. In general if you have EDGE connectivity then there will be very little or absolutely no annoying pauses in between the feeds when you are watching them live.

Mobile TV acts like a Mobile FLV player like Mobitubia or FLV player for Nokia but the difference is that the steaming is decoded through the use of DVB. This is quite a logical step in the development of the entire mobile phones business and consumer market I believe as a demand was always there and when HSDPA or HSPA slipped in as the standard technology, it was assured that we will be watching live TV on our cell phones soon! Many network operators are already providing their very own mobile TV broadcasts like Orange Mobile, AT&T Wireless, Vodafone, Verizon Wireless etc and many more but a key drawback of all those channels or broadcasts are that firstly you cannot view mobile tv over cell phones of Symbian (you will at least need Windows Mobile or Palm or PDA based devices) and secondly, if your network carrier is Verizon for example then you cannot view the channels provided by AT&T Wireless. In many cases it is your operator or mobile TV broadcasting channel that binds you to an exclusive contract or agreement when you buy your prepaid or post paid plans that you will only watch their channels if you decide to pick on the service.

With this Nokia mobile application installed on your cell phones you will be able to watch all the independent channels as long as those mobile tv broadcasters restrict you to connect, which in most cases they don’t! So finally it is time you watch your favorite TV shows like LOST, The Simpsons, CSI etc when you are at work or you are traveling from one place to the other. This Mobile TV software uses real time multimedia feed (not like you get for my site, it’s the RSS FEED!!!) which enables you to choose from various pre-scheduled programs with good clarity and sound quality. While some phones and PDA handhelds have an edge if they have an antenna built in like the 3rd edition Nokia N77, Samsung Omnia, HTC Touch or the LG VU then after extending it you will get even better reception!!

The only drawback of this Nokia based application (..ofcourse other symbian devices, BREW and windows mobile platforms are also supported) is that it consumes battery like a monster and will drain your phone out of power pretty quickly. Nonetheless, the overall positives are way above anything as pescy as this! This application is compatible with the latest and greatest Nokia symbian N-Series and E-Series, S60 & S40 devices like Nokia N77, N78, N79, N80, N81, N82, N85, N91, N92, N93, N95, N96, N95 8gb, N6600, E50, E51, E60, E61, E62, E65, E66, E70, E71, E90, 6120, 5300, 5700 Xpress Music, 5500, 6250, 6220 6310, 5200, 6300, 6121, 5710, 5610, 6290, the luxurious designer cell phones like 8800 Arte and Luna, 7360 and many more including the latest Samsung Omnia and LG VU, HTC Touch HD etc.

This mobile TV application is network operator independent as it uses it’s own feed and will work with AT&T Wireless, Verizon Wireless, Telstra, France Telecom, 3G Wireless, DoCoMo, Vodafone, Virgin Mobile, Digi, Hutch, T-Mobile or T-Mobility, Rogers, Sprint, Optimus, Telenor etc. Please subscribe to the RSS feed for free if you like this blog and this Nokia mobile TV application!
