So if Windows Phone 7 fails at everything else, it at least has some serious gaming potential.
Microsoft showed off “The Harvest”, a fully 3D touch-controlled dungeon game, running on the Asus Windows Phone 7 Prototype. Check out the screen shots (and remember, this was running on a phone):
Besides the nice graphics and the fact that this shows how a game studio already proficient in XNA developing, same as the XBox (like Luma Arcade, the developers of the above game), could create a full game for a new platform like Windows Phone, but it also shows a taste of the achievement notifications in the last picture above.
Anyone like?

More interesting is that this also runs on Windows 7 and XBOX 360 also. You may start the game on one system and pick it up on another. Moreover, all platforms share 90% of the codebase. #shayneboyer

Yeah, serious in gaming, but anything else? And excelling in only one category seems a bit like overcompensating.
Android still 100% ftw…

well, someone, if they can have one “flagship” area, then it can carry them. Apples flagship was Itunes, Blackberry’s flagship was Email, Android is open market and access, why cant windows be gaming? Besides, if its powerful enough to make really nice 3d games, and they can figure out how to sync a 360 and win7 phone to play a multiplayer game together (say worms or something like that), it could be a huge initial selling point. It’d have my attention. Add in the PC power of Office, instant movie downloads from blockbuster, an Ereader, and (hopefully) a speedier and more reliable OS and central marketplace and you have a real contender.
