Well, we all play games on our mobiles. And how much gameplay does one get average? Maximum 6 hours for me. I've been wondering recently why the mobile games are so extremely short. 10 years ago I had this gameboy, first model ever and god damn - some games were so long! Mystic Quest, Zelda - the rpg games which lasted for weeks. Typical platform games were so much bigger too, Wario land - a week of playing. That was something.

Now the mobile games have far better graphics in most of the cases but still I have a feeling that I am playing a demo version of something. Do you have that too?

Does anyone know what prevents the developers from making like 500 kb game, damn, make it 3 times more expensive but it would be worth it! At this point I've got bored and I don't even track any info about new games since 95% of them are so short...

it would be good to have full length games titles on PHONES....but thats it they are just PHONES...the reason the are so short is because they are meant for the 5 minute wait for the bus or bank queue..there are dedicated game phones

Agreed. Most of the games can be finished in about 3hours flat in one sitting. I need something super mario. In my mobile. This message was posted from a K500

Well you see - 15 years ago people used to say that computer is meant as something to work it, not play, games was to be something you play when you take a pause while working and such... See how it is now. Therefore I do not understand why is the potential of phones getting wasted this way. Mobile phones surely can run great and big games, it might be a huge industry someday... But roght now I don't feel like spending 4 dollars for something that lasts for 2 hours.

With the eyes of my imagination I can see memory cards with 64 mb games installed, whole lot of gameplay, outstanding thing for those who for example travel by trains much or something.

Hmm I see a possibility to make a lot of money here
