Haha, I was sooo lucky to update right at the beginning so I could win 2 games against like 50 European players and get that achievement. No chance in hell I'll ever win again now.

Wordament is a great, great game. I can't wait for the iPad port (and I'm not even trolling). When I played with a Windows 8 tablet, I spent most of the time playing Wordament. :lol
You can play that on Win 8 already? I need to install my goddamn Win 8.
I'm not so sure it will make the move.... its written by ms employees in their spare time and now has all the xbox live bits. don't think they want to go back to the old way just to put it out on ios.... now if xbox live ever goes mutliplatform that would be a different story.
also unless it was updated don't think the win8 version has the new xbox live bits yet..... I will admit its been a few weeks since I played it on win8 since I have the phone version but I don't remember it getting an update in the past few days like the mobile did.

kinectimals doesn't use the online bits though.... wordament doesn't work without it. I think its far more likely it would make the xbox transition but that would present some ui issues.
Out of curiosity, any how does Nokia's Creative Studio compare to these? It seems pretty cool (though early) but I haven't tried the others

With WP8 and W8 being closely linked, particularly for apps, how safe is it to assume we'll get a lot more horizontal/landscape support for apps w/Apollo? Considering most W8 apps seem to focus on landscape mode.
They would be dumb not to port it. I don't think exclusive apps are going to give them marketshare at this point in time.
There's a Wordament Meet-up going on in Bellevue tonight (city right near Microsoft's main campus) in the Microsoft Store at Bellevue Square.
http://wordament.com/2012/04/22/wordament-tournament-and-launch-party/
It starts in 2-3 hours, so that alone will hugely bump up the numbers.
I think one of the points of the metro apps requiring a snapped state is to have a portrait version of the app ready for the phone OS.
After playing around with EyeEm for a bit, I deem it worthy of use. The way they integrate tagging photos is nicely done, as well as sharing to various social networks. Instagram alternative is a go in my book.

better than fhotoroom?
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
Fhotoroom has more filters (and better ones IMO). Also, besides the built-in sharing, the Fhotoroom site makes sharing and going back from anywhere to see your pics a breeze.
Edit: in the short time I spent with it, I don't think EyeEm has as many filters as FR either. I did like the EyeEm interface a ton, though. I'd say EyeEm captures the simplicity of Instagram better, but FR is more fully-featured.

Old Article about the creators of Wordament but I liked this speculation by the author about it coming preloaded with Windows 8.

look good. but that could be just because of the metro UI.
Pretty much this. EyeEm does easy edit, tagging and share really well. But if you want to dig deeper into doing more with your photo, it gets pretty thin on options. Personally, I prefer the easy end of things for mobile, and deeper editing for desktop applications. I'll have to check out Fhotoroom's site though, sounds nice and functional.
Not a terrible week to be put into a mod induced coma. This place is reminding me of Lord of the Flies more and more each week.
Can I ask why people think its okay to sell the original titan on craigslist for 300 dollars? I want a new phone to tide me over until my Apollo device, this og focus is about to randomly reboot for the last time here pretty soon, I can feel it.

How much do you think it should be? I think 300 is reasonable ... it's a good solid phone.
Its only because I can find them brand new for the same price on ebay. People seem to think a used six month old phone doesn't depreciate in value. (I probably should have specified the fact of it being used.)

This came outta nowhere but it's nice to have more official apps on the store.
It's like...we are slowly being accepted. sniff sniff.

If that happens I'll never sniff the top 100 ever again.

Obviously they're just trolling. It will be upgraded to Windows Phone.next. Not Wnidows 8.

Only 1½ months of this till we get some information from Microsoft. (I hope. I have no idea when they will announce anything? D10? E3? Nokia World (That's waay to late)? Special event?).
WWDC

That could possibly be more entertaining that watching the Nintendothread meltdown whenever they get some actual information about the WiiU.
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
I had a dream last night about blackberry os 10. It was running on a beautiful high ppi phone, and the animations were gorgeous.
MS better hurry up with some Apollo news or I'm jumping ship!

it would be hilarious if MS didn't even talk about windows phone till apollo comes out
not so much jumping ship, more choosing which seat on the Titanic you want to sit in.
Pretty much.

key word being "dream".
lol. well if windows phone 8 is as good as MS is making it and they support it (L-O-L) then your at the docks waiting for the next ship.
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
Yeah, no way I'm jumping ship to blackberry, that was a joke.
The dream part, I'm embarrassed to admit, did actually happen last night.

has calmed down a bit.
I may have a problem.
Sometimes I hope that someone reading the thread is a psychiatrist.

i am telling you, its phone-ception. make sure steven elop isn't under your bed with a suitcase tonight.
I'll be Rose!
Microsoft isn't making it out to be anything yet since they haven't even spoken about WP8
I'm not drawing you. put your shirt back on and get out.
but Complex Shadow is wearing it.. :/
I wish they would leak something, anything. Did that video PocketNow reported on in February ever get out?
No it didn't leak or was ever confirmed as even real info. Its just been assumed.
