App and Game Reality

Apps, Apps, APPS!! Many people these days are obsessed with APPS. Most of these people are iOS and Android users. We can't blame the truth that most of them gets the latest apps and the like. But one thing that really grinds my gears is that they say Windows Phone has NO APPS and GAMES. And I was like WHAT THE HELL? Windows Phone has the APPS and GAMES! All you need is a bit of exploring and there you have it. Here are some of the popular apps and games that are also on Windows Phone.

 

There it is! it's the APPS and GAMES! Well some of them are a bit late like "One More Line" which is released last week and "Candy Crush" which came out December 2014 but anyway it's better late than never, right guys?
Well it depends on the developers anyway if they want to create APPS for our beloved OS. Some apps are very outdated anyway like for example "INSTAGRAM" which is updated last year and been abandoned ever since but good thing there is an alternative made by Rudy Hyun which is "6tag" and it's much better than the official instagram in the store.
I have to admit some apps takes months before a new update comes for example Facebook but some of these apps also gets updates every week like the game Snake Rewind. And the most awaited Voice calling of WhatsApp has finally arrived last week via an update so you can see that it's catching up on it's Android and iOS counterpart.

I also like the Lumia exclusive apps that Microsoft made. I wonder if these apps can be installed on non-Lumia Windows Phone devices.

Wohoooo Lumia Exclusives.

What I really don't like is people bitching about Windows Phone having no apps and say their Androids are superior because it has many apps. But the question is "Do they really use all of those apps everyday?" Some of those apps are just for eyes only for example install this app and use it one time and you don't like it so just leave it there so that friends can see i have APPS but in reality I'm not using it. Yes! this is true because I have friends like these. No wonder their Android devices lag like hell, maybe some of those apps are running in the background you know. It's like they only use it for bragging. 

Good thing Windows 10 mobile will change our Windows Phone forever. Thanks to their code for easy porting of apps and I hope DEVELOPERS will really port their apps.

I really salute GAMELOFT and DISNEY for the continued support for putting their games on Windows Phone and the good thing is these games are UPDATED unlike other Games or Apps out there.

 

  


And also, I praise GAME TROOPERS for porting and publishing some Android games with XBOX support.

Look at all of these delicious Games. 

One of the big missing app in Windows Phone Store is a proper YOUTUBE APP but did you know that Microsoft actually made a very good YOUTUBE APP until GOOGLE took it down from the Store. BUT Microsoft put it back but it's now a WEB WRAPPER. Google? Why do you have to mess things up?

It's supposed to look like this

But because of google we got this "direct to the browser" version instead

Although there are so many alternatives you can find in the Store which is actually pretty good like Metro Tube or Tubecast and more so you don't have to worry. :)


APPS are very important to a smartphone and good thing some developers are still developing for Windows Phone and now that Windows 10 mobile is fast approaching more developers are now creating apps for Windows Phone thanks to Project Astoria for android and Project Islandwood for iOS. Android and iOS users need to realize this and stop bashing Windows Phone for having no Apps because to be honest the Windows Phone Store is growing everyday. And there are great alternatives for apps that isn't on WP but there are in Android. Plus, there are also Windows Phone exclusive apps  and games that you can try. So all I can say is try a Windows Phone and see the difference. :)

And by the way take a look at this video Nokia made a year ago.. :)
