Gaming on the HD7

Hey guys, guess I lied about the fast and plentiful updates, this phone has been so amazing I haven't found the time to stop playing with it and write a post.

Today I'll be talking about gaming on the HD7. I've been doing a LOT of that lately, mostly on these three games from XBox Live: "The Harvest", "Zombies", and "Ilomilo".

The Harvest is an adventure RPG set in the future. You pick a character type (I'm playing as Scarab and he's a beast at mitigating damage) and off you go to save the human race from an alien invasion of "Harvesters". As you progress you get more special abilities, unlock special characters, find gear and learn how best to destroy everything nearby.


Zombies is a direct copy of the famous board game and is also loads of fun, more so with friends. It's you're basic screw your neighbor, zombie killing, survival horror/comedy game... Ok maybe it isn't so basic but it's still a barrel of laughs when you play "Your shoe's untied" Five squares from the escape helicopter.

And lastly but not leastly (leastly?) have "ilomilo" a puzzle game where you try and reunite the two friends Ilo dand Milo. Move block defy gravity, operate catapults, find more friends and more. The greatest thing is how immersive and addicting this game is, you use your accelerometer to look around corners or over ledges so playing this game you will find yourself pointing your phone around much like your parents and your old Sega controllers while playing Road Rash...Or maybe that's just me...


Moral of the story? GAME ON!

It's here! It's finally here!

My HTC HD7 has finally arrived and I am so far loving it the UI is super responsive, the web browser is nice and snappy and pinch to zoom is SO FLUID it's unbelievable! I'll get into some more indepth reviews later on but for now theres just a couple things I wanna say I love...

1) Wireless sync with Zune software, no need to plug it into my comp to sync which, with my limited USB slots, is one hell of a boon no more need to unplug my printer to put media on my phone.

2) The super LCD screen is quite frankly gorgeous. Really crisp and clear with vibrant color, not quite as high contrast ratio as my friends Galaxy S's SAMOLED screen but its a huge leap past the standard amoled on my old Omnia I8000.

3) Xbox Live support - Havn't gone too in depth into this yet but so far its been useful was playing with my phone when I noticed somone on Live wanted me to join them in Black Ops, just one more way the phone is described as a "Social genius"

4) The peoples hub. I know android has this too but coming from an iphone and WM6.5 it has brought a smile to my face almost every time I pick up my phone. Have my girlfriend and friends Facebook pages on my homepage who post a LOT being able to see the comment and post on it without having to launch a dedicated app is wonderful.

Anyways, I'll leave the rest for later! Off to enjoy my phone!
