Cell Phone Gaming

Cell phones, in todays society, are status symbols. The cell phones that "do it all" and have apps for just about anything you can think of-are a must have! Cell phones have had games already loaded into them for a while ( starting back when Snake was pre-installed into the 1997 Nokia phone) now but only recently in the past few years have you been able to play games that only seemed possible to play on your XBox or PlayStation. The iPhone for example has handheld racing games that steer the car as you turn your phone the direction you want the car to go... or how they made it possible to play Guitar Hero through your phone as you press the chords via screen/buttons... the phones with internet access can download any game made available on the internet. Its amazing how games, that used be be only for video game consels or home PC, are now able to be played by taking out a small gadget from your pocket at any time, any place. Some games, if played by someone with the same phone can become multiplayer and play at thee same time. Other phones that are touch screen allow two people to play at once, the phone can be laid flat and the opposite ends and the screen slits allowing each person to play half screen. Gaming is continually expanding, but the asspect of gaming through your cell phone is very interesting to me.
