    Microsoft still support WP7. It's the game/app developers that are going WP8 only.

    You know that it is Gameloft (the developers/publishers) who decide what platform to develop for, right? And your old phone is going to go dead much faster than older consoles. The mobile frontier is still very rapidly developing due to such an under-utilization for so long.

    A friend on my list has played it, and I see it on their xbox page. Should be good to go.
    No mercy.

    Yet another WP8 game I can't download because 6 of my 8 gigs of space is being consumed by a poorly developed operating system...

    Anyone have a time estimate for all achievements. Or if they are even all obtainable without paying.

    MS have done it with every O/S they have ever created since Windows 95. Bring out a new one so they can shaft their customers some more and then drop the old one like a stone. Sad but true.
    First off, the developers are abandoning WP7, not Microsoft.

    Second, every OS? Yea, that's why they still support Windows XP until next April. When it comes to PCs, they do great about supporting previous products. Consoles, they do pretty good. Mobile, so far they've done a decent job -- it's the developers that put everything towards 8, not MS

    I don't know if I have enough phone space for this memory is really an issue with WPs since you can't use SD cards for games. Does anyone know of a way to get more space for games on your phone? I have a Lumia 820.
    Get a Lumia 920...
    Get lumia 928...

    Free = good
    Gameloft = ...not so much

    I'll give this some time before I jump on it. Also, I'm quite low on space.

    Never thought i'd read so many whiny messages over a FREE GAME! Get over yourselves especially the two that say they won't get it unless someone else completes it...the second guy is at 47% completion lol like you'll ever get to 100

    Gameloft are notoriously poor when it comes to glitchy games and freemium titles full of awful grinds and microtransactions.

    It looks good, but I'll resist the urge to play it right away I think.

    hehe, im with you on that one, Gameloft's reputation isn't the best around at the moment, but they've only got themselves to blame...

    Here is a question then. Why is it that some of the WP7 games that are owned and published by Microsoft not compatable with WP8? For example Fable Coin Golf and Full house poker do not work on WP8
