No, please just don‘t. The reason these games worked was precisely because they were optimized for the mobile market. Modern Combat 3 and 4 were the best.

Its sad that ads and micro transactions won out in the mobile gaming market. Everyone loves to talk about how they speak with their wallet but the mobile app stores are a testament to the fact that gamers are more willing to support predatory practices rather than buy quality videogames

[@Daniel__Nobre]

It's the masses and the lowest common denominator approach. Games quickly reached the "casual" layers, meaning that they now reach billions of users. And it's just incredibly profitable to just do a quick low effort asset flip - sometimes even with stolen assets - than it is to actually try to produce a good game, that requires effort. The masses are mostly ignorant and easy to trick.

Yeah, we should have mentioned feature phones, genuine mistake from our side

[@RevOwOlutionary]

I remember their Ghost Recon Future Soldier and Jurassic Park games were the first phone games I paid actual money for on my second phone, an early Nokia smartphone, I think it might even have been back at the time when you still paid through SMS, and it blew my mind that you could get Gameboy quality games on your phone.

It's so sad that the best mobile games developer come to an end. I had so much good days since I was a 17 years old gamer until now 35 years old😢 Thank you so much for creating this video. So much needed🙏

Glad I found this video. I've been playing and spending in Asphalt 9 for almost 2 years now. And let me tell you. It's the most greedy game I have ever experienced. Asking for anywhere from $100-$1,000 for a single car. You can't get 80% of the cars without either paying or farming premium currency for over a year for about 1-6 cars. Customer service is terrible and each platform has different unfair advantages. Xbox doesn't have ads so other platforms can watch a 30 second ad and get 20X the currency for a single race, while nintendo switch gets hundred's of dollars in value at a 90% discount since the platform is "behind". I honestly hope gameloft goes bankrupt, I can't smile any larger seeing that picture of Gameloft's profits sinking yearly.

I liked blitz brigade. Needed more content but the overall gameplay and style was really good

[@theliggi]

was looking for a comment mentioning blitz brigade, litteraly one of my favorite mobile game when I was younger and my favorite mobile game of Gameloft. Too bad it was fully removed

[@ThatsBroFromChicago]

@@theliggi it’s crazy because all it needed was content and a obviously some mechanic tweaks but the theme was good graphics characters and weapons were good. I’ll always love comics style animation. Good times

6:48 When NOVA 3 was completely removed from the app store, that should've been my warning signs because that games was so much fun to play. And the real trouble came when Spiderman Unlimited was removed on May 2019, THAT was the straw that broke the camels back for me.

Back then everyone had at least 1 game made by gameloft downloaded on their phone

[@AmritEmperor123]

Just bought a new phone. Didn't played any kind of games for at least a couple of years so went to get some, and the first name I could come up with was Gameloft. I pretty sure many people still go by the name of Gameloft itself, maybe it's a tradition or a nostalgia, but the name of Gameloft is still there.

When I was a young, 10-year old brony, I always liked that MLP mobile game despite it just being a generic citybuilder

As someone whose been a gamer AND rabid collector of video games, this video is even more of a reason I am fascinated by mobile games. If you're a fan of traditional video games, every new console would be discussed at nauseam to make sure that you wanted to buy them; hell, its the entire gaming side of the Internet's job to make games A) known by a wide audience and B) have lots of gameplay/graphical polish so that they look better than the competition and C) generate excitement and "hype" around every detail of a game even if it doesn't warrant it. Mobile games are in this unique video game sidecar in which - though they're more profitable than literally every other game console on the market - nobody talks about them, their history, or what the best games are on the platform - even if you want to get into it! Granted, mobile game history is difficult to study its history because - much like MMOs - the second a game is no longer profitable, those servers are cut off preventing the other gaming audiences to experience them, but still, if this were Sony, Nintendo, or Microsoft? When the big three want you to buy something, gaming websites WILL NOT let you forget about those games for months if not years - even if (like the Last Guardian) it hasn't been worked on for over a decade! thank you for the video, I really appreciate your insight!

[@Czurcodm]

Bro you seriously copied an Indian KZbinr's script? Word for word, bar for bar?

[@basealchemist4396]

What an irony, a pajeet explains what copying is while most of their entertainment industry is made out of cheap copies of Hollywood and South in the name of inspiration.

[@aungkhantkyaw2054]

I love playing MC4 Zero Hour on my tablet when I was University student. Sadly it doesn't compatible with new devices anymore today. But glad that, I still can play Wild Blood on my new tablet

[@ahmedaraf8188]
