Whenever I’m looking to get a new game for my phone, I first check WGR Wireless Gaming Review to see if the game is any good. They’ve got ratings and screenshots. Useful so you’re not wasting your hard-earned cash to buy a crap game.

Update: Oooh man, this looks cool. The GUI is …Gooey! Very non-windows, very Mac-ish. This will just feed my powerbook envy.
