View Full Version : The Free snowboarding game
When I went in to buy my n-gage the guy at the link says
"You get an awesome snowboarding game free"
He lied to me :( Wheres the game? Installed on the phone or on a mmc?
jaybadass 08-12-2003, 10:05 PM there should be a card in the MMC slot, and thats where the game is, also look in your menu. if there is a nokia game logo, thats the snowboarding game. if you do not have it, take it back
I think its very confusing - Also the guy in the Carphone warehouse said that you get a free game.
Ofcourse after I had purchased the N-gage on Orange and got home found that it doesnt even come with a MMC card although there was a crappy space Impact game on the CD-rom.
Its all a bit cheeky when they dont even give you the card to start of with.
Well, im sorry guys... when I got my ngage I got a memory card in the phone which had the snowboarding game innit (which I think is a wicked game!) and an extra game(tomb raider) so I think you guys should take it back and at least claim the memory card....
SAbz911 09-12-2003, 01:31 PM U just got skanked! :p
Just go back and demand it!
I might just do that....watch out Carphone warehouse I am coming for you....
Going down to demand my game now... Lets see what they say :p
The manager said something about the guy only using 'the free game' to get more sales :s He went into the store and then told me It was only free on contract. Cunts.
SAbz911 09-12-2003, 07:38 PM Im sure that aint true! Im at work tomoro night so ill ask for ya. Im sure the free game is a standard package deal.
Outta interest did ya box say game inside on the side?
GhostDog 09-12-2003, 08:22 PM I bought my brother an N-Gage from a official Nokia store and i can confirm that the 32 MB MMC with the floboarding game installed on it is a standard package.On the box it should say free gamecard with Nokia game inside.
yeah you see the guy I spoke to was also selling the contract deals. Orange always repackage anyhow and I spoke to headoffice who listed me exactly what came with the unit and no game or mmc included - however I have now just seen on the orange site they are offereing a free game with it - bastards...
enjoy 10-12-2003, 12:57 AM If somehow you do not have the free snowboard game (or if it gets lost), you can freelly download it at the ngage website!, annyway i should claim at least a 32 mb memory card at your vendor, mine came with the 32 mb and with tombraider
where can you download the snowboarding game have looked at the website but cant find it...

GhostDog 10-12-2003, 01:26 PM I don't think the free game is the issue here but the free 32 MB MMC.

Exactly :P
exactly I mean Orange said they dont have a MMC card listed on the inventory of what should be in the box when you purchase a Nokia N-Gage...
so obviously I would have been better off purchasing the SIm Free version for £20 more and getting the memory card and game with it...
SAbz911 10-12-2003, 11:41 PM If you definitely dont get a mmc with orange payg, then your better off keeping wat u got, rather than getting it sim free.
The reason why
What you get for £20 more:
- a mmc worth £5.99
- you aint getting a sim card
So you have to buy a sim card anyways (unless you got one), go through the hassle of getting all the settings sent to ya handset by the NP.
If you were willing to spend £20 more on the phone, spend it on a 64mb card instead

sco2001 11-12-2003, 08:44 PM What does everyone actually think of the floboarding game?I haven't really heard any reviews. I think its pretty cool and has pretty good graphics, although that flo game they also give you is pretty rubbish.
drager 11-12-2003, 08:49 PM floboarding is very simple... i`v finished it the day i got my ngage. i don`t remember but i think it takes only a 30 mins to reach the end and be a champion:) but it is good for having fun with bluetooth... for ex. last week i went to cinema and i turned my bluetooth on and send a broadcast message to all people i an see on my bluetooth owner devices list. and the we started to play floboarding. i don`t know who were they but i really had fun that day:)
cuddlers89 15-12-2003, 10:49 AM i got my n gage from the carphone warehouse and i got an mmc card with flo board game on it, and pandemonium game FREEEE!!
i didnt much like these games so i sold pandemonium. and formated the mmc
So i go £25 and a 30 mb mmc card. FREEEEEEEE
babsk 15-12-2003, 03:20 PM Husband and I each just got an N-gage. Here in the US, just got one for US $199 plus three free games. The offer is at the US stores GameStop and EB Games (that I know of).
Our existing wireless provider uses SIM cards, so we simply popped the card in and it works fine. I think it's quite a deal to get a cell phone with good features as well as a gaming platform for this price.
hotshot2828 15-12-2003, 09:43 PM yea i got my n-gage in america at eb games but it dident come with a 32mmc
windozesuk 19-12-2003, 06:28 AM I got mine last week at EB/GameStop(USA) for 199 US w/ 3 games. NO mmc card however. I just got my BlueTooth USB adapter and 64MMC card today. Is 256MB the biggest MMC card available or can you get a 512?
GhostDog 19-12-2003, 09:27 PM tecic 512MB MMC's work.
In the future,please search the forum.Your question has already been answered.
ali123 20-12-2003, 02:16 PM when you get a n-gage game (i.e fifa) how much memory does it have????
SAbz911 21-12-2003, 07:43 PM Game cards like Fifa and Tony Hawks etc. are read only cards so its impossible to put applications and mp3s etc. onto it.
