one if these guys here already hacked the firmware to change all the icons, and to bring out the calculator, so it's not impossible.

It was just an example of modern crime series.

I would really like a e-book reader, somethink simmilar to the mobilpocket reader for symbians. And for a hack would be a good thing to add buttons + and - to the volume control for precise change.

I had a thought, it would be awesome with a dictionary app, though to make one it'd require being able to import it all from somewhere, since I doubt anyone feel like spending years to add it manually xD

Tetris!

I second Tetris! You could use buttons similar to the yet to be released push box game on the sides to rotate, move, and drop.

Hey guys, I'm new on this forum. Got some games and apps already and I'm liking what I'm seeing. If I were any good at programming or had some time on my hands, I probably do this too, it seems fun! But I had this idea I thought I'd throw out there. What about a type of drawing based game, maybe kind of like this:

You Tube

You Tube

This is, in fact, a LUA based hack anyway. Not sure if the player would even be able to handle it though, but just seeing what might be able to be done about it. BTW, you people have done a great job so far. I'm anxious to see future games and apps released by you guys. Cheers.

after seeing all the ideas. i thought of 1 which is quite simple yet fun
AIR HOCKEY!
All u need to do is to touch the air hockey mallet to move it n jus play against a comp. It would be awesome if some1 is able to create tat. THX

What I'd like to see;
- Last.FM Scrobbler.
- Missile Command.
- Elite style space trading sorta game. (It was first 3D computer game I think so surely if it could run on those crappy PC's back then it could work on an X-fi2?)
- Notepad
- A mic app where you can adjust the mic sesitivity, unlike the default one.... (or would this require a change in the hardware and therefore not possible?)

With the accelerometer starting to see some light (thanks to the brilliant programmers we have on this forum) I'd like to see an accelerometer based ball maze like this one:



The image is from a BlackBerry game (article here)

It's probably the Creative Design Contest site (click on the 'Works Show' tab at the top right). Unfortunately, no apps have been released from it, and the design contest is for China only.

Ahh I found the videos I can't wait to play them all, especially PushBox, that looks brilliant!

[jako123]

yeah thats the website its a shame they havnt been released

[k0ni0ph0bia]

So what do you guys think of my idea? It may not be the most responsive screen, but do you think that a nicely paced drawing type game is possible? I mean you can't make it too fast paced though since it's hard enough to draw on the paint app. But you get the idea.

[jako123]

i think baldurs gate might work as is originally programmed in Lua so might not be that hard to make work on the xfi2 it onlly needs a 166mhz processor aswell

actually it wont as it needs directx 5
