While Microsoft and its partners haven’t exactly announced a ton of Xbox games for Windows Phone 8 so far, the same can’t be said for Gameloft. Back in October, the mobile game publishing giant announced a whopping 12 games specifically for Windows Phone 8. These titles rely on the new mobile handsets’ extra horsepower and most would be impossible to port accurately on our beloved Windows Phone 7.
It’s been a long wait, but the first Gameloft Windows Phone 8 game is finally here: Asphalt 7, the arcade-style racing game. That’s right, a non-Angry Birds Windows Phone 8 game! Who’d have dared to imagine such a thing? In case that didn’t knock you right out of your office chair, it even has…. Real-time online multiplayer! I don’t mean asynchronous: this is the for-real deal. Ho-lee crap, I just had to fetch my socks from across the room. And did I mention Asphalt 7 is priced to sell?
Head past the break for details! We'll have a video soon too.
Who needs 6?
Asphalt 5 was a functional but poorly balanced racer on Windows Phone 7. For Microsoft’s new mobile OS, Gameloft has wisely decided to skip part 6 and jump straight to the latest series entry, Asphalt 7: Heat. It is once again a fast-paced, easy to play racing game that doesn’t get bogged down with too many simulation aspects.
Asphalt 7 features the most detailed 3D graphics in an Xbox Windows Phone game to date with stunning cityscapes, beautiful colors, and lighting effects that rival a JJ Abrams movie (I kid). Just like its predecessor, the cars are fully licensed and rendered in lavish detail. Some of the more desirable makes include Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, and even the DeLorean.
As a result of the complex graphic engine and the game’s wealth of content, it clocks in at a whopping 878 Megabytes. And it requires 1GB of RAM, so devices with only 512 MB such as the HTC 8S, the Lumia 620, and the recently announced Lumia 520/521 will not be able to run the game. That’s a drag, but graphically intensive games would struggle with the tiny 150 MB of RAM that is allotted on those low-memory devices.
Multiplayer, what!
It looks like the increased level of hardware access in Windows Phone 8 finally allows the inclusion of real-time multiplayer (Pool Pro Online apparently only simulated it). Since the game just came out and takes a fair bit of time to download, we haven’t been able to test its multiplayer in action yet. But it does appear to operate with Gameloft’s own servers as opposed to Microsoft’s servers, so users will need to create their own Gameloft accounts to hop online. That’s actually very encouraging since the multiplayer features in games like Carcassonne have been terrible on the whole.
Check out that sticker price
The arrival of a hot game like Asphalt 7 (complete with online multiplayer) is wonderful news for Windows Phone 8. It looks like Gameloft (possibly with Microsoft’s input?) is serious about making sure Asphalt 7 sells, too. It costs only 99 cents, just like the iOS version. There are optional PDLC micro-transactions, but they aren't needed to simply enjoy the game. If you’ve got a Windows Phone 8 device with enough RAM and storage space to run it, you might as well skip the test drive and give this one a buy.
Get Asphalt 7: Heat here at the Windows Phone Store. As usual, the link may take awhile to show up in your Store. Just try again later.
Thanks to Jey Si for the tip!

Who needs 6? Really?
We'll soooner than you'll realize have 8 out & we'll end up saying we paid for something that is old already, because the same company launched the next version of the game.
WordPress for Windows Phone is updated to version 2.0.0.0, brings some improvements. http://georgedao123.wordpress.com/2013/03/01/wordpress-for-windows-phone-is-updated-to-version-2-0-0-0-brings-some-improvements/
Will definitly pick this up when I get a WP8 from Sprint....assuming that's actually ever going to happen. Oh, and I guess I'll need to make sure my phone has enough RAM to play it as well.
PLEASE GAMELOFT - PORT TO WINDOWS 8 RT SO I CAN GET MY RACE ON WITH MY SURFACE!!!!!
Not available for my device (Samsung ATIV S)...boooo :-(
Why is it not installing on my att L920? ... It says I need a software update.
This is a bit ridiculous. Finally got it to download by starting it from the website. It gets to the "installing" stage, notifies me that the memory is low and the download restarts.
Yay, another game I can't play on my phone!
I think 1 GB for any Gameloft game is too much... it's not RealRacing.
They almost never updates their releases with new contents.
They point everything on the graphics, with always super easy games (gorgeous to see, but nothing else - bad story, bad controls).
On iOS there is always a video that start with their apps, I wish they would let me delete it to free some space! Or at least stop the autoplay.
Plus as other pointed out it's already an old game, only good point is the price & multiplayer (anyway it was free for a few days on iOS). Maybe they'll continue with future new releases.
Bought the game for a buck and played it for a little while. Decent graphics and gameplay. But my Lumia 920 gets mad hot and noticed the battery going down even while it was plugged in charging
this is going to be one of those record sales for a wp Game
Download from windowsphone.com if you guys have problems installing it. I guess it's still rolling out.
Well, looks like I just made a donation to gameloft. Can't free up enough space to install it, only enough for Microsoft to accept payment. Only a buck, but this is effing ridiculous. And no, I'm not going to reset my phone.
Ok, so I pay for this app from the store, and now I can't download it because its not available on my device? What the fing f!!!!
L920 here. The game is pretty awesome especially for a buck. Can't wait for Gameloft to release more games for WP8. Controls a lot better using the wheel on the phone screen.
Ugh, just went to download this and it said I needed to free up space. Deleted a couple big trial games and went back to download and now it says its not available for my device (920).
Windows phone is really starting to piss me off.
How on earth can you guys say 2x fps means smooth?
Great game for cheap. Gameloft makes console quality games. They need to bring more WP8 games.
What a sick game. Just played multiplayer and this blows out all the crapware games out there. Worth the 99 cents for sure, buy buy buy
Was able to download onto phone from windowsphone website
I think I played against you
Bought this one right away. 0,99e is cheap price for it. Works just fine with my lovely Lumia 920!
I have a Lumia 920 but the Store is telling me it's no available for my device? Can anyone tell me why?
"This app is not available for your device". WTF?! Samsung Ativ S here.
HMk, Nokia 810 here w/32gb of useless microSD storage, because WP8 does not see it for apps...so frustrating. I used shrink storage app to gain phone storage and even w/4.07gb freed space it is not enough O.O. That's definitely frustrating! Almost wanna go back to flip phones now @_@
Same boat.
I was able to install with exactly 4.25 Gb free if that helps.
Anyone in Canada got the game?
Well I got an unlocked Rogers 920 and its saying device not supported..
Same Issue here. Non unlocked AT&T Lumia 920, says "This app is not available for your device"
Hey Paul I just won against you in a 3 part multiplayer game :-) Seems to run quite okay so far. Fun race man!
can it do cross platform multiplayer ?
@paul u got served !
Nice job! I'll try to get some practice in soon. :)
Says its not available anymore
I know it's blasphemous, but I don't find this game to be very much fun, and I love racing games. There is no challenge to this game since you don't have to brake around corners.
Perhaps just the first few levels, too bad though, how about multiplayer?
I've only played the trial and it doesn't allow multiplayer. I'll give it another shot, but it's not looking good so far for me.
This only makes me want to upgrade to WP8 even more.
Am I the only one that says it doesn't support my phone? I have a Lumia 822 and when I go to it in the marketplace it says it doesn't support my phone. In the reviews section someone said it was working fine on their 822. WTF?
I had that issue with my l920, I think Microsoft is having roll out issues due to insane demand, I would try in a bit, when I checked an hour later the phone store was working properly
Yeah the only way I can get to it is by scanning the code up there and when I do it has tons of 5 star ratings but it says no ratings and shows no stars overall. Guess I'll wait for them to officially post it on the marketplace.
Was able to download from my home WiFi, Dallas l920, I would just keep trying gl!
Download it from the WP website on your desktop or laptop.
AT&T L920, downloaded and installed just fine on the first try from the Store app on the phone. Repeat, zero issues. Can we dial back the wailing and gnashing of teeth a little bit?
+1 but up until 30 min ago wasn't available in Dallas, att Lumia 920
For Christ sake..... 7 years of this "Other/Reserved" space problem crap. GET OFF YOU DEAD ARSES, MICROSOFT, AND FIX THIS ALREADY!!!!!!!!!
Lmao. I had 1.2 GB free (because I have 10.6gb in OTHER). I attempted to download this and it told me I did not have enough space. The kicker? I now have 786mb left. I lost over 400mb just by unsuccessfully trying to install this. How the hell can Microsoft continue to let to many issues a d massive bugs go on for so long???? This is getting embarrassing.
How is the multiplayer? Anyone try it out? How can you guys tell the fps.
The multiplayer is awesome. Really smooth. You can have 6 racers all together in a single race.
This game sucks as asphalt 5 dose, in terms of FPS.
I had no problems with downloading that game. Game play perfectly smoothly ;) Great game!
Working now. Just tryes it and graphics is good, but FPS is a bit low. :-\
Finally got it downloading. Download thru web, phone said attention required, error 8000ffff, rather than tapping attention required, hold it and u will get a cancel download option, back to web, purchase history and click reinstall, booyaka!
Error message came after spending my money. Tried going to the web marketplace and it still won't download to my phone even after it says it did.
Download via the web market place! It bypassing the storage space checks!
Thanks, mate. Great suggestion!
Hi guys. Iam trying to free up enough space on my 810 ironically having 32gb microSD @_@...anyway, my phone has 1.74gb allocated in "other". Does anyone know what software is considered "other"...I tried deleting, games, apps, podcasts, supertube videos etc., but nothing seems to free up that space :/...I really want this game o.O. Tnx all far help ;).
Seems like temporary installers, cache, useless junk mostly, try running an app shrink storage that another poster mentioned above, I had 14 gigs free, took an hour to add 5 gigs to other, mostly good results at reclaiming some space from the reviews
Hi. This has been an issue with all of us. So here's an app that MAY solve your problem but not really release the entire OTHER. Link is here so just click that. It's called Shrink Storage. It works as it says it will. But don't be on the look out to freeing everything in OTHER. You'll be extremely lucky if you are able to free more than a 100 MB.
Lol didn't I mention that ;)
Thanks a lot, guys!
Thanks for sharing. Shrink Storage was able to remove 10MB from my Nokia 810. Now it has 0.8GB storage available. lol
MS needs to allow us to move and install apps/games to microSD. I really want to give MS my money, but with space and file restriction, it appears they don't want it.
+1
I deleted all maps in Here/Nokia nav and only has 1.21GB free space. What the hell is "other"? It takes up 2.34GB.
I love WP as much as the next person, I purchased WPs since the beginning, but MS pisses me off with things like this.
Its almost a GB :( that's huge for a game
Works on my US Lumia 920. GREAT GAME!
No bloody way I can free up enough space to install it :(
It should say "5GB space required to install" right on the store page - what good is it for me to know its 900MB when it actually needs 4 times the space to install...
THAT!!!!!!!!!
Finally a game that's actually worth the price!
Still, it does take a considerable amount of space, but the inclusion of ACTUAL live multiplayer takes the cake.
Hopefully, we get the other promised games and some more by the time this year ends, but we all know Microsoft TOO well.....
Won't download, what good is it if you have good games IF THEY CAN'T BE DOWNLOAD!!
Edit: finally got it to download, anyone try out the multiplayer yet? How does it work?
I downloaded to my Lumia 920 from the link in the WP Central app. I had no issues downloading it. For those upset about us getting after iOS and Android we have to remember that WP8 just came out they've been the dominant platforms. I don't mind waiting personally. We get an Xbox Live version with achievements something that neither 1 of them can claim
Bought but error code when tries downloading through wifi
I couldn't initially download, said my device wasn't compatible. Restarted and then it said i had too little space. I deleted some apps and it allowed me to download the trial. I opt to buy the game and it says its no longer available. :'(
See? Now THESE are good prices for phone games. Perhaps Microsoft and Nokia could learn from this and lower their ridiculous high prices.
Purchased. The dilimma for me know is whether to buy N.O.V.A. 3 or Modern Combat 4 from Gameloft when they make these WP8 games. Both supposed to be multiplayer shooters! Decisions, decisions..
Get both!
Agreed, especially if both are $1!!
Has Gameloft announced whether WP7.8 can run Temple Run or any of their other future releases?
Gameloft doesn't make Temple Run; Imangi does. But Temple Run is WP8-only, as are all future Gameloft titles. WP8 is much easier to develop for than WP7...
Getting 805a0194 error. Oh well, maybe it will show for me one day. In the meantime, Asphalt 5 is still $2.99. Such nonsense. lol.
Perhaps Windows Phone 7x is truly dead? I do hope that some games are still brought to Windows Phone 7.8.
I have a Lumia 822. When I go to download the game, I get the following message: "Your version of the Windows Phone software is not supported by this application." Huh?
Downloaded to my ATT L920 using computer link. Currently downlaoding now. Will update if it works.
Update.. Great getting error c101a027. Hope i didnt buy this for nothing will try again later on tonight.
For 99¢ plus Xbox achievements, you can't go wrong.
What? Can't buy it. It says "This app is not available for your device." I have a Lumia 920. Is it because I'm in Canada or something?
I had the same problem but then it fixed itself. I think you just have to wait for an hour or so it will be in the system since it was just released. I am on US AT&T by the way.

Bought the game. But can't install. How awesome?
Rubbish. Only 2x fps on my Lumia 920!
How sad for you. Looks and runs great on my 8X.
Wow! You're getting double the fps! Now you can game in 3D!
So wp8 is officially fragmented. Great job Microsoft. One of things I originally liked about WP is that every device would be capable of the same thing in regards to CPU, gpu, and ram. Smh..
I still love the platform but it's a shame.
I partly blame Nokia for this mess. It started when they wanted Tango to run on ultra low spec devices and now we have this. I hate this race to the lowest strategy that Nokia and Microsoft are planning.
Volume sales are at the low end, WP is not going to grow its marketshare significantly by just selling high end devices and ignoring emerging markets that cant afford such phones.
And as we've seen with Angry Birds a game can be optimised for lower RAM devices for release on those devices later so lets not start the moaning just yet.
Wait, you're upset that low spec phones can't run high spec demanding games? Why did you think differentiations in RAM and what not even existed from the beginning if those phones with better internals were never destined to take advantage of more demanding software? Seems like you overlooked that and the fault is with you...
Snarky, I'm not sure you understand me. Originally WP was meant to give all their devices the same capabilities, setting restrictions and requirements to avoid fragmentation. So essentially every game should work on every device but obviously better on devices spec'd higher. Don't get defensive.
I see what you mean. However, as someone pointed out, the low end WP market can potentially be huge if phones like the 8S and low end Lumias are marketed correctly...and as attractive as a "we're not going to fragment our user base so all phones must meet this baseline spec sheet requirement" rule may be, I can't see phone makers cranking out low cost phones that can still run the games that publishers like Gameloft are doling out nowadays.
My point is that every wp8 device should be able to run the same thing. At the least.
Good in theory, lower end wp8 are a big market, they just don't have the specs, fragmentation will exist unfortunately, much of that is due to the storage and ram issue, I bet the processors are upto the mark
Yea i believe the processors are up to par. I think the issue is with RAM. The requirement should be 1gb. OEMs can differentiate their devices by screen tech/size, camera tech, memory, and other things like sound enhancements.
Let us hope with the new System on Chip the new devices are mandated to have minimum of 1 gb for all phones. That would be great, especially if they can get the higher density RAM for a similar cost.
Can't download on my L810. What gives? I have 1gb ram. It says my software needs to be update (just checked update, nothing), this app is exclusive to another service provider, and or this app is not available in my country. Anyone care to help?
The game is slowly rolling out to the different marketplaces. Same thing happened to me,just wait a bit.
Same here. I have 810 on T-Mo in AZ...others suggest to wait and see though...so I am waiting. There are reports that some users were successful downloading it via PC ;P
i tred downloading via online store on PC, but it said, "sorry, can't download that right now" try again later.
you need to liberate about 4,5 gb i moved some big vids installed the game and then removed them back to the phone
What, wp7 must have asphalt 7
Not enough space on my Lumia 920
3,2gb of free space on L820 can't install because the phone memory is full. seriously? I have deleted lots of apps and messaging history. impossibru :|
Download from web store.
You mean go to windowsphone.com and search for Asphalt 7 in your Webb browser on your phone?
That might work but what I meant was go to windowsphone.com on you PC and download from there. Unfortunetly it looks like it may not be there anymore. Guess MS is having some server issues.
Oh, thnx. Yes its gone.
It's not gone, it's rather not there yet in search results index. But the Marketplace links already do work on the web Marketplace.
Just click the "here" link above. It's still in the web store.
Super fun, great graphics and performance on the 920. But seriously that Facebook achievement...thats not cool for me.
ill get this even tho ill only get to play for a few minutes before my 920 melts in my hand
Yep, just played it and ouch, it gets hoooot. :-(
Work fine on both L920 and HTC 8x (16gb), just downloaded on both phones ;-)
Instabuy... Boo yeah
Once again folks, download from the PC Apps store not the Phone App store to by pass the storage issue.
Thanks for the tip. Downloading now on my 60mb connection.
Downloaded on L920 and it works just so oh wow!
Why is it not available for my device, says right there on the games store page. HTC 8x with portico. Any ideas?
Just when back to page and didn't say same message this time and I can download it.
I can't download it! I have a Lumia 822 and it said my device wasn't supported. Wtf!?
Its not available to me!!! Lumia920 USA!!!!
Just deleted about 3 gigs of music that i don't listen to. I have 3.9gig free space and still cant download! Other storage is taking up over 3gig.
3.26GBs free on my 8X and can't download due to storage issue. Gameloft and/or MS need to fix this fast
Edit:
Seems like buying by way of the online store is the way to go. Just did it and it's downloading as I type this..
I'm having some problem as well. It says that it isn't compatible with my Lumia 920. Hmm.
Can't d/l on 920 at&t. What's the deal?
1gb ram? lol, and wp8 is lighter than android in general...
My other folder has already 12gb
Yeah! Happy!
I have 4g free and it can't download.... da ****?
Desired car Ferrari etc? Nooo. Nissan everyday, yeah baby!
I want to buy but it won't let me download due to the above mentione memory problem. :(
You can buy on the windows phone store website using a computer.
Saw your post above and did just that. Thanks for the heads-up. This game is worth at least five big ones and at this price, its a friggin steal!!!
I wish I could install it on my 820 without deleting all other apps and games.
At least I have it purchased in case the price goes up.
I can't download it
Instabuy for me as well. As soon as I get home in the evening I will start downloading it.
I hope the multiplayer feature really lives ups to the task.
Does multiplayer work across different platforms?
+1000
I first played asphalt on my Nokia 6600. Those were the good old days. Now I have an HTC Radar so I can't play this new title. For those of you who have WP 8, enjoy and have a great time. :)
Awesome game! Even more awesome price... just wish i had a WP8 device... =/
Me either, I've restarted and everything. Not working at all.
Not available for my Lumia 920 at&t
Downloading on my Lumia 920...in India
cannot download. says i reached my storage. i have almost 2GB free, and over 2GB in "Other". This "Other" shit needs fixing asap! Mofo!
I think i have a work around for those who are experiencing storage issues with this app although i can't say if it works because i am still downloading the game as we speak.
1. Do not download this game using the Store. instead, just follow the link provided in this article using your desktop browser.
2. you will be taken to the Windows Store page for Asphalt 7.
3. Click Buy or Try and you will be required to sign in (if you haven't already) and then you will be taken to the confirmation page. Just click Buy or Get Trial and this app will be automatically downloaded to your phone.
4. If you are outside the US you will see this message below the App icon "You can't get apps in this region. You can check the Windows Phone Store in your home region to see if the app is available there." just click Check my Windows Phone Store and you will be taken to the local Store.
I don't know if your payment information should match your region because when my phone was set to US, i can't download the app. But when i set it to Philippines, open the app page via the local store (windowsphone.com/en-ph/store) i was able to download the app via the steps above. And now i am about 5% approx downloading.
5. After 15 minutes of installing the setup fails because there was not enough space.
(one step ahead of you)
how to reclaim the free space that we created to install it like this?
the others space I had was about 1.93 gb, now it has bloated to 3.55 gb & my free space is 162 mb, the shrink storage is not reclaiming about 1gb of space which I had cleared after deleting lots of trials & what not!
I am downloading the xap file to install from memory card but i will need the free space that I had created.
Microsoft, this is a real mess, the others space management & everything else.... on a 8 gb internal memory device, 2gb goes into the OS, 2 into the others, I am starting to think it was only chance that others were able to free 4.7 gb of disk space to initiate installation, fix it!
Great tip, thanks for sharing.
Well that method at least started the download rather than saying I have no space, thanks. I'll update if it works.
At least that work-arond started the download, thanks! Will update with a reply if it completes installing.
Lumia 920 with 4 gb free says she does not have enough space
Just bought it, in case the price was an error and goes up soon.
I have an 8X and its telling me that the title isn't available for my device. What gives?
Error code 805a0194. Ah well, I'll try again later.
Bought it right away after just one game. For £0.79, it's an instabuy really. Not to mention Xbox Achievements!
Need to delete a load of music that i don't listen to to be able to install this...oh well!
Downloading now/8X
Looks great and runs well on my HTC 8X. Bummer about the fragmentation of Windows Phone 8, this early on! I was afraid of that when Nokia demanded Tango last year, and now its beginning again for WP8 512MB phones... Le sigh. I guess it can't be helped.
It says it not available anymore, what's up with that?
Update: I had to wait a couple of hours and then try again, and must say it is awesome!!!
Seriously.
Yeah, saying the same for me... bit of a piss off after making me free up over 4 gigs to be able to install a 1 gig game :|
I tried again and got it so you should be able to get it now, maybe too many people were trying to get it all at once. With a price like that I can imagine a server or two went down as a result of the want for a sweet game like this
It is allowing me to download now, even though I have the same 3 GB free as I had yesterday. Taking a while to download though. Almost a GB worth of dowload. I remember when the entire game of Deus Ex could be fit into a single CD. Mobile gaming has come a long frickin way :)
I didn't free up space because my 8X had it still, I'm still in the honeymoon phase, I know my Radar wouldn't handle it, but it looks and plays great. Was thinking I may need to get rid of some music and the movie I have saved on here but checked my memory and still had almost 8.5 GB left not sure if I can make much more room without getting rid of stuff I use daily. I think they did a great job with this game, graphics, sound and play all work very well!!
When I started playing the game, I was thinking, this game makes it worth investing in high end hardware. It's like Crysis on mobile :P
Downloading it on my Lumia 920, no problems :D
Do people need double the install size (enough to download, then enough to install, then downloaded file deleted). Not sure if it works that way, but just a thought
Could be but I have 1.91gb free and still can't download it.
I am stuck with the "other storage" problem too. This is really discouraging. I have almost 5GBs of my 16GBs in "other". There needs to be a quick fix for this. I am not willing to factory reset my phone every few months to clear it out.
Try Shrink Storage app to free up some Other
Great app! Thanks for sharing! Hope other users have good results
After using this app I ended up with less free storage than before :(
That is not cool. I had14gb for it to fill, having it run for a few hours. Did you restart your phone after the app stopped or finished and then hit the clear button in the app? The second time I ran it I gained about 300 mb but it was not fully done. gl and don't give up.
Seems a shame that this wont be available for the 520, 620, 720, 8S and W1... We also really need to be able to install big apps to an SD card. Storage on WP8 is a joke at the moment.
Purchased straight away, well done Gameloft. Hopefully more developers will follow your lead.
Error code.
Now for the rest of the gameloft games...
Instabuy!! Downloading in Minnesota on my Lumia 920. The Xbox drought is over! WOOT!
I wonder if this was one of Joe's apps not in windows store yet? If so, then more like this please?
I think this is one of them. Definitly has to be one of them, from the picures the graphics look amazing. Finally a game worth playing for how it looks and feels. However it takes ages for me to download the game. Almost 30 mins and it is at 5%. What the heck?
Same problem here, won't go past 50 kbps. Too many people downloading this game, I suppose.
Absolute behemoth of a game (size-wise) for a great price. Downloading now, but could take a while!
Downloading on my Lumia920 in UK for 79p...bargain
Time for an editorial on the "Other" storage issue? Seems to be seriously hampering a lot of WP users now.
I tweeted Sam Sabri about it week before last and he said they'd look into it.
i mentioned it during a podcast and emailed the editors... idk how much they are looking into, it is a collective problem that they are having also
Even so, with the deafening silence from MS on the issue, at this stage I'll take WPC acknowledging its a problem they are aware if from their readers and forcing MS to respond to a press query, even if the response is 'no comment'.
Mostly because it's not as black and white as I thought it would be. Still trying to piece the pieces together before I put anything out. Don't want to spread misinformation.
I would have bought it no qualms, but, alas, 'other storage'(4.12gb) leaves me with only 590mb of free storage. Boo. Fail. MS needs to FIX!!
Try deleting some other games first to clear some space, then download.
This is how dysfunctional Microsoft corporate is right now. Gameloft brings this quality of racing game to Windows Phone. Meanwhile Microsoft Studios with its best-selling Forza series never got out of park. Heck, they never even put the keys in the ignition.
Yep...MSFT really shows little interest in Mobility despite Ballmer's rhetoric.
