If you're just waiting for something, having nothing to do etc etc do you just flip open your mobile and play small games on it like snake, bowling, qudrapop, darts etc. I do tend to do that when I find I have nothing else to do. Is it addicting? What are your experiences?

Actually I have installed a lot of games in my cellphone and I can play it when I have free time. But usually I like to watch movie from my cellphone than playing a game.

Watching movies on your mobile. I thought that would be a strain on your eyes!

I play Solitaire and Bubble Breaker. Bubble Breaker is my favorite. I go through periods of time in which I am addicted to it.

I used to play games on my mobile to kill time. Sometimes, when I am waiting for someone, I do play mobile games so that I won't get bored. But now I bring either my Nintendo DS Lite or my PSP so that I won't have to drain my mobile phone's battery just for playing games..

I am using a PDA phone and although I do have some cool games like worms, Skyforce, etc installed, but somehow I don't fancy them anymore. I prefer to play the Windows Mobile default games, especially Bubble Breaker. Anyone else love that game?

I do that sometimes. Like when i'm sitting at the doctors office or something. Its not addicting to me, I just do it when i'm out and about and waiting. I have zuma on mine and like to play it.

That is due to the type of my cellphones.Good mobiles do good graphics.I play the game on my mobile when I don't take my computer together,in this case it's a good way to kill time by playing mobile games,I think.

I really dont mind basic graphics. My old Nokia was just a single color mobile and I loved playing Snake on it!

I have jewel quest on my mobile, but I don't really play it so often nowadays because playing a game really eats up the battery. I usually play my Nintendo DS because the games are more interactive in nature.

Hi, I will play a game called Worms World Party in my cell phone to kill time. Sometimes, when I'm waiting for my turn in bank, I will play the game. It is a good game to play and it is quite challenging. I can use a lot of different weapons to fight the bad worms. :)

Sometimes I do but it is not that often. The problem with mobile games, it is limited to few games. But when I am not too busy I instead go into mylotting.

I don't because it costs extra, but I used to when the games were built into my phone. I can't say there were totally addicting. The games on my PDA were more addicting and my husband would get mad when I played them too much - especially before bed.

I do have games on my phone that I use for recreation when I have spare time. My favourite is midnight pool which is fairly self explanetary. I also enjoyed the Casino Solitare where the principle story of the game is that you are challenging different Casino's around the world at Solitare, Pyramid, Freecell (my personal favourite) and golf. This was very fun and provided hours of entertainment for myself. I also have Monopoly for my phone is well but I found it highly overated and though the graphics are good the AI is horrible so it is best to play when other people are around in order to get the most enjoyable results. I am also looking for new games but I cannot find any that seem particularly interesting so if you have any recomendations please do tell!!

I like it that I can play a game if I have to wait for something. For example I was waaay too early for a job iv once and decided to stay in the car just a little while longer. So I just played a game on the cellphone happily in the parking lot till it was a "reasonable" time to show up. The funny thing is that I did notice somebody rush by and look at me. When I got into the interview it turned out that it was the same person....not sure if I should be embaressed or not lol. I don't think it's worth the effort to use the phone to play games on if I'm just plain bored or want to play a game. Playing a game on the pc seems to be so much easier too.

I do. And I install the games myself on my Motorola phone. I spend a lot of time playing simulation games (those tycoon games). Although I end up discharging my battery earlier than normal.

I am totally addicted to mobile games. Every week i search the net for new games.PES is very addicting.But the shortcoming of mobile games is that you complete the whole game very fast. If u play for 2-3 hours the game is finished.Thats y i like to play games without story lines.
