"Best" MMORPG?

Hey guys. I was just bored as hell, thought i would ask if anyone here could recommend me a nice MMORPG game. Doesnt matter with the price, i have never payed for an MMORPG before and i dont like it, but i want some ideas to take a look at and if i see something worth it, i might try. NOT wow though. I hate that junk.
Thanks in advance.

GunZ The Duel. Best MMORPG I've ever played Great game. Free also. But play at the private servers. It's too f'n diffiuclt to level.
Kraize

if you like competition just try "Guilds War" from NC Soft (not realy a MMORP but nearly)...
if you like beautyfull graph try the young "Age of Conan" i haven't test it but he got good reply...
if you are poor (because you must buy the new Touch Pro today and an iPhone 3g for your dog) just try "Archlord" very good game from codemaster that is now TOTALY FREE ... i play with it since june because it take realy few CPU time (i play on a server... shame on me... but time is sooooo long on summer).
and my favorite is "Warhammer: Age of Reckoning"... the bad news: he is still in closed beta... but if you get a key... i told you it is 200% addictive and fun and wow (the exclamation, not the game)

Thanks guys. I think ive tried gunz once. And i have all GW campaigns. I like PVP alot. But i dont think the others are worth the money for me, and archlord doesnt seem like my taste. But thank you!

That's what she said app

So this is an app a buddy of mine requested. I in no shape or form own rights to The Office or any of its characters. This is strictly a "for the heck of it" application. I took pictures of the characters and attached their own versions of "That's what she said." from a few clips from the show.
I didn't go through the little details yet. It is my first "real" app for windows mobile. I always used palm os devices. Let me know what you think. There is a vga and qvga version. I've tested both the vga and qvga in the appropriate emulators, but only tested the vga on the touch pro. Please check the qvga version if any of you have the matching device. Thanks everyone, and enjoy!

As always, I am not responsible for your phone spontaneously lighting on fire or any other random software and hardware failures.

Haha not sure if this app really serves any useful purpose but I love it.
I find myself saying that's what she said at least once a day anymore.

OMG, cool app man. That's what she said!

thank you so much this is the app i never new i always wanted

tryin it out now
one of my professors says thats what she said daily and loves the office so im gonna try to score some points tomorrow

Thanks everyone for giving it a try. I'm going to leave it posted. Tell your friends to stop by and give it a try. Especially if they have a qvga device. I don't have one, so I can't test it on hardware, only the emulator. Thank you again.

could you make it so michael says more than one? i know he has like 50 or somethin
i especially like the one where he gets roasted and he pulls a thats what HE said on oscar

It would be awesome if there were more for each character and it played them randomly.
Anyways, soundboards are always awesome... thanks for taking the time to make and post.

Yeah, thats how the iphone app works, it switches up the TWSS!

Ok, by request, I will be putting it in where each character has numerous at random That's what she said(twss). I have the rest of the week off, maybe I will set it up so it's a tick box option or something like that. Thanks for the suggestion and the interest.

Sorry everyone. I got food poisoning Thursday morning. I have been out of commission since then. It was crazy, hospital visit and IV and such. Anyways, I will be working on the suggestions over the weekend. Thanks for all the support.

Screenshot ER on 3.2

Hi guys! If you remember, my app Screenshot ER was the first to work on honeycomb. If not, its in the signature.
Could all you lucky champs with 3.2 let me know if its still working please?

it works beautifully on 2.0.1 manta ray with kernel Tachi.
Still great job no matter what update for OS comes around

Cool. Are you using SER or SER 2?

1.0.8 that is

need root for this?
edit: never mind, just read your sig.

Yep... needs root. But if youre on this forum, you should know that restoring your device to vanilla is just as easy as rooting!

Works fine on Tiamat 2.1 (3.2 base).
[sER2]

Ive just checked (finally) and it works fine! Dunno why people are sending me error reports...

doesn't matter, 3.2 on Tiamat has screen shot app built in

Yep - but it sucks... this is a real screenshot app with cool features!

I'll pass, good luck

Whats your problem buddy? You just clocking up a post count with all those opinions?
Must be - im a dev here with lots of current threads and Ive only managed 1700 in the same time as you. And of course i spent most of that time making cool apps. You it seems were just trolling around because noone listens to you in the real world. ..
Hope to never see the like of you in one of my threads again. Fat chance, i know.

Internet gangsta haha, don't quit your day job

Typical. Spout some nervous nonsense and run with your tail between your legs. Schmuck.

Haha, some one didn't get their snack pack. Sorry this is all you have, good luck with it. Maybe next year you can go to band camp

The app will always be available for free from XDA, it is our gift to the community.
A beta is currently being tested by everyone in the office, and the app itself will be posted here in the next few hours, after we put some basic icons together and make sure it actually works
Stay tuned, all your screen capture needs will be met within a few hours!

Yeah... so you dont get to bottom feed any more and actually have to pay for something that use use. If youre such a smart guy, why dont you go make something that becomes successful and then not cash in on it? You can be content with watching thousands of people download it and never even clicking the thanks button.
Oh wait - you cant.

Sorry to disappoint but I do pay for apps on both my EVO 3D and Xoom. You said your app would ALWAYS be free to XDA members but went back on your word, that was bad enough. Now you're here spamming the forum, thats disgraceful. On the 2nd page is your last thread that was closed on Aug 4th, now you opened another thread the very next day which offers nothing that could have gone in the other thread? Oh yeah, and there's another thread in the Android Paid Apps section which was also closed.
I support devs verbally and through my wallet, but your behavior is pretty distasteful. I'm not looking for a fight, nor am I slamming your app, but I think the way you do business may hurt you more than freeloaders. Another factor may be people realize there are free apps that suit them just as well and don't have to worry about buying an app only to find it pulled from the market for some unexplained reason and have to get the other pay version.
Think of this as constructive criticism.

[game] Armed! - Starcraft style

I do not know if this has been posted before, but Armed has been released about a week ago. I've been playing it like crazy ever since. Has multiplayer, turn based, etc. CPU AI is pretty hard too.
Check it out here.

looks very nice, im gonna test it out. thank you!

A lot of reviews say it crashes on startup!

It still has a few bugs which may result in crashes every now and then. But it's very stable most of the time. At least for me. Its developers are working hard on some updates that address the bugs/crashes and add new features and maps. I for one don't regret spending 4 bucks for this - in my opinion - awesome game.

I haven't played/test it. I mostly just did some research of reviews. Seeing a good many people say it crashes during start up. They can't play the game. So, just a friendly advisory!

Try powering off your phone. It also has issues for region not being in English/US. So if that happens change your region I think. Otherwise, just wait for the fix.
I love the game, and $4 is nothing for this.

Hi guys.
I'm one of the developers of ARMED!
We're first time smartphone developers... we did a little Java phone development in like 2004, but most of our experience is in PC and console games. Try as we might we had some crash bugs... most of them related to non-US regions.
We spent alot of time before release testing the stability of gameplay... we ran thru hundreds of thousands of automated games driven by special stress test AI, but we made some rookie mistakes in other areas... like not testing the game in different locales.
It also doesn't help that it wasn't till yesterday that we got our first stack traces from Microsoft.... that was almost 2 weeks since our game was up on the marketplace. That's way too slow for the pace of moblie development IMO... we've learned our lesson there are have integrated Bugsense (google it... forum won't let me post links) for the next release.
Anyway the 1.1 release just appeared in the marketplace and it addresses all the bugs we knew of as of a week ago. I'm sure we'll find more, but at least the locale and a couple of dumb crash bugs were squashed and should make it playable for everyone.
Thanks for trying ARMED!

i like the graphics and control. Keep up the godo work.

Are the price depends on our country that we are residing or it's in standard USD.I mean for all the apps in the markrtplace.

Question to the developer:
I am an indie developer with Full-time job, and have my own game on Marketplace as well. How do you promote your game, and do you earn something for all hard work you put into the game ? As I see it right now, it would be really hard to make a living from it.
My game is free (with ads) and recently I added non-ads version of the game for people to donate something, or to disable ads.
What I found out is that from ads you earn ~0
Btw. As I said before your game is really an Eye candy

@Ttblondey
The developer has control over pricing in each region individually if they want to set them.
In our case we set the price for the US region and let it automatically set the equivalent price in all other regions.

I sort of agree... it depends on your app/game. Most of what i see on the marketplace are things one could build in a couple of hours or clones of other apps/games. It is hard to rally users behind you if you don't have a unique and high quality product.
At the current sales/ad rate we could not support our entire company (6 people) with ARMED! sales on WP7 alone. We could support one employee... but not 6.
To me this is a victory and shows the potential of WP7 in the future considering that its only 1%-2% of the smartphone market. With the push MS plans to make over the next few months i expect our revenue to at least double if we can keep the attention of the audience with updates and improvements.
That all said... we are looking at ports to other platforms to maximize revenue from the ARMED! brand and core tech. We're not ready to disclose what platforms those are yet... but it won't be Android.

We're struggling with our ads as well. It is all new territory for us, so i'm giving it some time before i pass judgement.
Our 1.0 release was missing ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT which seems caused the ad network to not show near as many ads as it could. Still even after fixing this in 1.1 on my personal phone i still don't see ads at times which is really confusing to me. Still i see ad revenue improving, but its barely enough to by coffee for the office.
There is money to be made with ads... people are doing it now. Also WP7 often has a higher revenue on the same amount of impressions... but you have to get impressions.
If your game/app is not attracting users then you won't make money with ads. You need to be seeing 50K to 100K impressions per-day to really support yourself with ads alone. Most developers do this by shipping several high quality apps... not just a single one.

Looks very nice!

better then most of the xbox live games. you, sir, are a hero!

Great game, amazing graphics
I already posted a short review of the game to support you guys:

We're trying hard here to build ARMED! into a fantastic game. It really does help our motivation when people praise and especially buy the game.

its nice and amazing

V1.1 work great , wish more and more item will join feture version.

I did the try on this I like this gamethat said I didn't have any issues with it at all. and when I do a try to use if I like it I'll buy it if not I remove it this game has been bought! I had a ball playing this. and didn't get bored at all with it. though It drove me nuts at times...you know when you don't play it well... over all the game is nice and nice work done on it by the Dev team....it's well worth the money....

Looks really sweet. You should consider porting it to tablet enabled Windows 8 computers seeing as the beta goes live in Feb. Then you would be the first indie to have head to head between phone and tablet

Android child mode

Ok so Christmas is sneaking up on me and I'm thinking of getting my son (almost 3) one of these cheap android tabs. I was thinking of the innotab or leap pad but for its price i feel an android tab would do so much more and would be something he wouldn't grow out of in 6 months time.
So does any one on here know any good child mode apps i could use if i get him one? I wouldn't want him destroying the tab by changing all the settings and buying apps and sending emails to people etc.
I'd like an app that would boot into kids mode upon start up and that would be easy for him to access basic things like games and camera and coloring apps etc etc..and ideally a function where i could monitor his usage and see his progress in games and drawing...
Please help
Ps: for the people that think I'm mad, i am. Don't judge me for giving him a tab. I won't get an expensive one and even if i did, it's my money so no criticism please!

You can't just use any one of the several "kiddy" launchers already in the market?
It took me 3 seconds to find this one with many more available.

Must resist urge to criticize!!.....
Can't help it!! Guy, he is barely three!!! Get him tonka truck or legos!! If he is anything like my three year old, he will have more fun with the box it came with then the tablet.

+1 Why can't people let kids grow up at a normal speed, rather than trying to magically make them become a geek by the time they're 5? Kids spend far too long staring at television as they grow up, give him something that will get his imagination working and get him outside in fresh air.

Yeah ive seen one i like the look of called kytephone. I found that one here on xda.
I was mainly after opinions on what people use for their child. And what they liked about it.
And although he's only 3 he's very clever like his daddy lol and it will hopefully stop him using my note.

Edit: this thread isn't going as i hoped. I will not stick him in front of the tv all day nor will he have access to this tab 24/7.
We do play outside, we do have fun that don't involve technology so what's the harm in him earning an hour or two tab time?
I'm after advice not criticism so can we get back on topic or shall i close the thread?
Thanks

You should probably get him something like this.
Additional link here.
Cheap and has toddlers in mind with it's design.

Children need to play outside and socialize. Its only going to do them good in the long run.

I agree with the earlier thread.....
I just bought all 4 of my kids the nabi2. It is sporting tegra3 processor etc..... very rugged. $199. I even play games on it. Extremely easy to root. My oldest is 14. He even likes it. Mainly because he doesn't have to worry about breaking it.
It has nabi mode. In it you control content etc.... and "mommy mode" is just your basic ICS.
Check it out.

Thanks for the replies guys!
As for the haters, yes he will be in nursery, yes he will play out side, i don't lock him in his room and feed him through a hatch!
He's 3, he's clever and if he behaves he earns a reward which will be playing on the tab. It's my money, my child, my house and my rules.
