0. phoneArena posted on 07 Dec 2012, 11:29

Have you played any cool games on your smartphone or tablet lately? We know we have. In fact, we got to try out a plethora of great games over the past 12 months - so many that we had a really hard time selecting the best ones among them. Still, we had to pick a game of the year for our PhoneArena Awards of 2012 series...

10+ million people tried Draw Something, then stopped playing a week later. That game should definitely get our "Flash in the pan" award too.

There was a massive buzz about it for about 1 week then it all died off,was a good week though!!

I think I played one game with my nephew... then I never touched or ever re-downloaded it again.

the "to us" part in the very last sentence kinda made the whole point of this FAIL

PA, DO NOT use "to us" anymore

It should be named "Trying Something"..

Am i the only one around here that loves RPG games?

4. gwuhua1984 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 11:59 4

I'm with you....

Chaos Ring, Final Fantasy 3, Blazing Souls Accelerate...

Just too bad that these games don't have as much downloads as what's listed on this article.

16$ for FFIII .. come on!
I love FF, but at this price i'll never but it!

9. gwuhua1984 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 12:28 2

Agreed, I'm still waiting for price drops on these games...

18. JulianGT posted on 07 Dec 2012, 16:23

And Pokemon, zelda...

23. gwuhua1984 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 19:03

I think the article is talking about tablets and smartphone games only... My boys will be happy if Pokemon get ported to smartphones.

Almost all I have on the Note II, and on the iPad. Love RPGs! Need to get a 10" Android tablet with keyboard, and pick up Zork again. :)

Order and Chaos just had a spin-off released. Anyone try that one?

Oh, Bulder's Gate came out for iOS today, and Android should be soon. Tablets only, so here's hoping my Note II counts. :) Loved that game, and never finished, so here I go again!

25. nnaatthhaannx2 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 19:30

I thought "RPG" stood for "Role Playing Games".

35. bayusuputra posted on 10 Dec 2012, 01:30

Dude, it's Rocket Propelled Grenade.. Don't get it wrong.. Please..

3. buggerrer posted on 07 Dec 2012, 11:54 6 1

Angry Birds .. boring!
what about Ingress? I know its still in beta and needs an activation code, but its very interesting game!

11. jimjam posted on 07 Dec 2012, 12:44 2

I'm with you on Angry birds.

6. omar98 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 12:00 1 1

What about Need for Speed Most wanted ?? It is the best racing game ever on a smartphone or tablet

13. sorcio46 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 13:32 5

Android Tablet with HDMI output + 55" Full HD LED TV + PS3 Joystick with Shadowgun ;-)

16. CanYouSeeTheLight posted on 07 Dec 2012, 14:20 6

Wait a sec, if you have a PS3 i presume you have a PS3, why don't you use the dedicated gaming system? People are getting weirder by the day.

19. SleepingOz posted on 07 Dec 2012, 16:31 3

Get a life dude!

21. sorcio46 posted on 07 Dec 2012, 16:39 2

Because Shadowgun isn't available on PS3?

36. bayusuputra posted on 10 Dec 2012, 01:32 1

because having PS3 joystick doesn't mean have the PS3 console..

14. Red-Pain posted on 07 Dec 2012, 13:41 2
