who here played java mobile games on feature phones in the early 2000s?
yesit sucked
>>738496302doom rpg 2 is still the best phone game of all time
Anyone who's not a 34yo lebanese trogloomer inkjetfag
they were basically just games made with java so you should be able to play them on pc no problem?
>>738496346Most of them sucked, but we still had fun anyway. Part of the fun was trading these games via bluetooth to find out if a game someone had on their phone would work on mine and vice versa.
I used to play this one
>>738496302>need for sperm>prince of penis>Spider-Man 3
>>738496302I did I did I did, it was mostly short garbage but I wish I could remember the name of this one fairly lengthy arpg I played once
>>738496657They were made with a different version of java called java me, so they won't run on the standard jvm, though there are emulators that can run them.
i played some garbage port of sonic 2 and that's about it. honestly i think i bought and downloaded it just to see how/when i was charged.the music looped in a really shitty janky fashion and it was borderline unplayable.no wait i had final fantasy 1 as well. yeesh.
>>738496852>one fairly lengthy arpgIts probably Heroes Lore: Wind of Soltia
Only played disco.

>Older brother hacks his old LG java phone and gets a shit ton of games>Lets me play it every day>One day he suddenly stops letting me play on his phone>Keeps finding new excuses as to why >Steal his unattended phone and sneakily play some>Notice a new game>Tomb Raider>Oh neat I love tomb raider>It's a romhacked version where lara is naked>Vaguely remember a room with tentacles attacking her>Put the phone back where I found it and never ask to play again
Devs back then were demaking current gen console games to run on machines meant for calling and texting. But now that phones have the computing power of a mid spec PC, they don't make mobile ports anymore.
>>738496302I remember playing a witch game and she had an umbrella or something, i forgot what it was called
>>738497282your brother sounds based
>>738497282Then you got your own phone and hacked it?
>>738497282Implying this story is real, what are the odds that romhack can still be found somewhere in the web?
signs that you're playing peaktheir games are better than today's mobile games
>>738497615I was actually doing research into the game just now and found it the game is Tomb Raider Underworld, tentacles and all just like I rememberedI'll see if I can find that romhack but I don't even know where to start looking, never been into java games scene since I was a kid
>>738497164It honestly doesn't look that bad either. It kinda looks like a GBA licensed game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnSPGMwndCE
>>738496302I have vague memories of playing some knockoff sims like game. It might actually be this thing >>738497152
>>738497549I didn't get my own phone until android became mainstreamI did hack it and "bought" infinite lives and cash shop stuff in a lot of shitty games
>>738496302Gameloft was on a hot streak in the 2000s with their java games, guaranteed kino if you got your hands on one of those
>>738497615>>738497615Holy shit found it I think>oldfag.tophttps://oldfag.top/downloads/?act=view&id=657
>>738496302Assassins Creed was my favorite.I had to fight the final boss (al mualim?) that warps around and goes invisible until I light up a torch on the wall
Yup, it's Kino. Mobile gaming peaked here.
>>738498061If you ran that game on a jme emulator you could spiritually connect with your older brother by gooning to the same thing he gooned to.
>>738496302mom bought us PS2 because she is tired of playing Asphalt and Bounce on her phone.
i was really good a snek
>>738496346I played these games almost all of my high school commute, they we're great considering the tech
>>738496302I used to play a lot of game boy games on this
>>738496302I used to a lot of Casanova games ;)
I liked the fish gamesThere was one where you dropped food into a tank and collected the pearls fish droppedThere was another one where you had to eat smaller fish while avoiding sharks
based bounce
>>738496302First phone I ever owned was a blackberry with the keyboard below the screen, didn't really play anything besides brickbreaker.
Only real boomers remember this gem
>>738496302I have hundreds of J2ME "roms" and still play them using JL-Mod on my Android phoneBetter and more fun for quick pick-up and play sessions than most modern mobile shit
>>738496302I use to play Wolfenstein on it and some anime game when I was a wee lad
I had Samsung C6625 with Windows Mobile played Age of Empires 3 on itMy mum had Nokia Classic with symbian, played TowerBloxxBoth games are KINO.>permainanIndog spotted.
>>738498061Yoo bro that is crazy
>>738498036Asphalt was peak
>>738496302Java game was pretty good in the past but somehow it got memory holed somehow.Galaxy on fire 3DAbyss 3DOrcs & elves DoomDoom clone shooters Heroes lore zero/ wind of SoltiaAnd bunch of a good games
>>738496302Good times
Zombie infection was a good banger too
>>738502576
What was that one sims like game where you wander around and can fuck chicks
>>738502576>>738502669pure kino.I remember playing shitty cut version for cheap nokias and then I found 1mb heavy version for top tier phones. It was 5 times longer than what I played before. Had good mechanics too, I remember wasting weeks trying to record every zombie on camera using that female character. Too bad sequel sucked, it was weird knock off resident evil 5 that lacked everything that made first game great
>>738500176I really wish modern smartphones still has slide out keypads. I fucking hate touchscreens.
>>738502724Gameloft's Nights serries. Miami, Paris, Vegas, New York. There was also a spin off where you become superstar on reality show
now here's another gem. This game was fully 3D and you play as little robot that can stun enemies and posses them to survive and interact with the environment. Basically 2 different ways of playing and the scenarios you go through made it even more fun
I remember playing this because I loved Elder Scrolls and it was absolute dogshit. But I played quite a bit of it regardless.
>>738496302the only one I really remember is some rainbow six game on my dad's phone.
>>738502873my NIGGER
>>738502808You know what's funny?We had resident evil 3 on phones before any emulator.(I know it was a really watered down version but it counts)
>>738502842The keyboard was kino, I really miss blackberry but they just kind of died off at some point.
>>738503008I loved the Russian copy version of this Alien shooter 3D
>>738503164We had more that games in that time Wonder why it get memory holed so badly
>>738502808We have Vulkan 1.2 and we can run DirectX11 titles using Proton on Android. WHY NATIVE ANDROID GAMES ARE SO ASS compared to 100kb Java games back in the day?
Did anyone here ever bought this 30$ scam? i don't remember if it was for java or to play offline in pc.And it was 30$ per game not for a whole pack of them.
We even had gothic for fuck sake
>>738503382Why so ass?The games was hard to make that time and the Devs was competent too.As the time gone forward the programming got easier and the devs got lazier too
>>738496302>you now remember tibia mobile
>>738503617Need for speed was the goat racing game on the java mobile.
I was never allowed to have one of those fancy cellphones as a kid. I just had my $20 brick and could only play kino like pic.
>>738503617holy ESLYou're right though, the limitations of the hardware pushed devs to limits. I believe there's no scene so underrated as those mobile games, there's a lot of gems lost to time. Completely forgotten unfortunately. We need to go back
>>738503813I wonder if those game even get a proper archive?
>>738503784NokiaSpace impact > Snake
>>738504037There's one already:>>738498061it doesn't cover a shitton of mods and hacks I used to play though
I remember some skate or bike game that came in siemens phones were you had to do tricks, It was pretty good
alpha wing 1 and 2 were peak, almost neo geo caliber
>>738496302i had a family guy game where you swung from vines. was cool as hell playing a game on your phone back then
>>738496302I bought an Assassin's Creed game and a Tony Hawk game, but the only game I actually played on my phone from that era was Chainz.
>>738505371The Simpson game was good too.Minutes to meltdown
>>738503617reading comprehension: 0
>>738504076Bantumi >>>>> *
>>738504248this is my favorite siemens gamei miss this kino
>>738503126I remember making my Dad pay for that when I bought it!
>>738498061Neat. What android emu can I use for old phone games? Really going to put this ayn Thor to good use
>>738496302I bought a solitaire game for my razr knockoff. It took like an hour to download and I played it for 15 seconds.
>>738496302Kek I remember playing this in school and feeling so cool. Don't remember what other games I played but this one was my favorite. That's saying a lot about how shitty they were.https://youtube.com/watch?v=U763-qCzbGc
>>738503617Real buttons too albeit in weird positions. Some tactile feel goes a long way.
