commercially released games.

This might not be a straightforward question to answer, but could ppl please tell me what games there are for pocket PCs that have been released commercially. I don't mean like ANOTHER tetris or breakout clone that you get everywhere for pocket pcs, I mean proper old-schools games. The only 2 i know so far are Quake and Age of Empires. I don't care if you have to pay for them, I just wanna know which proper games have been ported to the PPC.

Well many of the games developed specificaly for ppc are better then the majority of commercial games really..

but um... lets see..

sim city 2000 is one...
Doom..
Snails is EXACTLY like worms armageddon, and the graphics are just as good as they ever were on pc.

i cant remember anymore >< there are some though.

Ultima Underworld is about as classic it gets.

Here is a list of all the ones I know:
Age of Empires
Sim City 2000
Ultima Underworld
Doom
Heretic (although I don't know if you can find it now)
Quake
And of course, you have emulators. If I can think of any others, I will add them.

Oh forgot angband and WinHack (which is a port of NetHack).

Thanks guys, just to clarify, I didn't necessarily mean old games, I just meant I wanted some games that have already been released for the pc, the ones you might find in boxes cd cases you know the usual stuff in a place like game or electronic boutique. Kinda hard to classify really. Spose abandonware needs to branch to the PPC.

If you are just wanting boxed games, then check out this section of Amazon.
