    Well that must be a new record. 10 days from release to pull. I don't believe it ever CLAIMED to run WP8. Microsoft, pull your heads out your arse and re-release it.

    No doubt. As if every WP7 owner instantly went out and bought a new phone the day WP8 phones came out. Just throw a disclaimer on it and deal with the customer complaints later.


    Angry Birds Space won't run on my WP7 device, how about pulling that from the market too?

    Angry Birds Space is supposed to be WP8 only so it shouldn't be able to download on the WP7 in the first place

    By releasing it for WP7, they "claimed" it would work for all WP8 devices. All WP7 games are to be compatible with the new version.
    I miss the good old days of WW2 Call of Duty

    So it works just fine on it's primary platform, but it's not forward-compatible, so they pulled it?? Why not just apply some kind of filter so it is only available on the WP7 store, not in the WP8 store? So only WP7 users can purchase... then there isn't a problem. This isn't rocket science!

    Add to the list of games that don't run on WP8: The Harvest, and Sid Meier's Pirates!

    Edit: I remember Glow Artisan and Oregon Trail also, but the above two are the only ones I still have to work on that wouldn't redownload on my new Lumia 920...

    There ploy must be working. Claim to remove it but don't so people will buy it in fear it will be gone. JK

    Still available on my marketplace too. Are you sure it's not that it's been removed from WP8 marketplace? Presumably if they're able to make games Nokia exclusive or WP8 exclusive they have the means to make something WP7 exclusive too.
