Good chess game for wm2003se?

Im looking for a good chess game for my x50v. All the ones i seen so far look like crappy 2-d drawings.

Does anyone know of a good looking chess game for PPC?

I use Kasparov chess. The graphics are great with 3-D and all, and its cheap too, I bought it at the local five-below for $5. I have two copies, would you want one?

Kasaparov Chess, for some reason, didn't like the X50v too long.
Loves, and still lives in the X50 High.

I loaded Chess Genius on the X50v. Nice. Fast.

Perhaps the Kasaparov Chess didn't like SE_VGA or True VGA.
I tried unloading, loading, just didn't like it on the X50v.

I own Kasparov chess. It does not seem to work on a x50v (which I own). Other owners of x50v report problems. The software seems to work on non-VGA PDAs under WM2003 though.

with the x50v 2003SE, it does not seem to work, however, on WM5, which i have upgraded to, it does, but for some reason, it worked for me before on 2003SE, just not now, it must be something I installed.

why not try hell chess? I have that and works even on Windows Mobile 5. It also has a few secret games sneaked inside it and a 3d switchboard ,you'll see when you start playing it ! Also, did i forget to mention that it is FREE! Righteous!

I was told yesterday from a developer at that Grand Master Pro will be releasing a VGA version too. The light version is only about $5.
