I would have no issue getting a Windows phone, but the developer support just isn't there yet.

I like to mobile game. It's actually my favorite form of gaming at the moment.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

I'm gonna get a 7inch Windows RT tablet for gaming when they release one. The main attraction to gaming on Windows phones and tablets is that you can earn Xbox gamerscore...which is perfect for me, cos I'm in a long-term gamerscore war with my friend with very high stakes!

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015
