Lumines - Mobile Phone

[oblivion_6]

Havent seen this anywhere so I thought I wouldnt mention it here

I got this today from Orange for my Nokia N70 and im amazed!!!

Its pretty much identical to the PSP one albeit some scaled down graphics and a lack of some of the 3d, but the music is just as good as the original and the gameplay is fast paced.

Cost a fiver which some may think is a bit expensive but given that ive just played it non stop for the past 15 mins in work and its got loads of levels and secrets etc I think its money well spent

Seen as this was the one game that nearly made me get a PSP im chuffed its came out on mobile and saved me the cash

No chance of getting this on O2 I suppose...

Looks like it's Java based so it shouldnt matter what operator you're on.
Gameloft are the publishers and they're also releasing Meteos:

(old press release)

[Duddyroar]

I can understand Lumines but how will Meteos work on a mobile phone?

Unless it's only available on phones with touch screens.

[Yoshimax]

It's available on Vodafone but my phone would probably run it like ****.

[oblivion_6]

Well my phone battery is now dead thanks to this game!!! luv it

The music is so close to the original its fantastic, easily the best game ive played on a mobile for a while

[Bleeders]

Can you get this on any network?

[Dogg Thang]

For whatever reason it's just listed as 'coming soon' on my phone.

[hudson]

Got a direct link to where one can buy this? and will it work on a Sony K700i?

[Gavin]

Which way is the screen oriented? Do you have to turn the phone sideways?

[Duddyroar]

I'm guessing that you'll have to access the game through your phones WAP browser in order to download it, and it costs a fiver. As for a direct link, try going into your WAP browser and check the 'games' section of your service provider's site.

I went to Orange Downloads and searched the games area for Lumines after searching manualy for it, but the search came up a blank (via my phone)

[gossi the dog]

Does it kill the battery?

[Yoshimax]

Aye if you sit on the ****ter playing it all afternoon when you should be working

[Magnakai]

It's absolutely superb!
I never played the PSP one, but was always interested in it. Now I'm actually (semi-)seriously considering a PSP...

Oh, and it's just a .jar file, so if your network won't supply it, there are other ways to get hold of it...
