O2 mobile game download charts and new releases: May 18th
Pirates, poker, sexy fighting and rock n'roll promise some bad behaviour in the charts next week, but Bubble Bash is still on top for now
Good evening. Can we see your ID? That's fine, go on in. Sorry about the formality, but this week's edition of the O2 Java games download chart has a rather grown-up tone.
Indeed, from pirating and poker to rock'n'roll and sexy girls battling with pillows, the new release list covers pretty much the whole gambit of adult-only activity.
Or at least that's how it appears at first glance – look again and you'll see some more family-friendly fare in the form of a summer blockbuster movie (Pirates of the Carribean 3), a funky guitar-based block game (Rock n' Blocks), and the excavate-'em-all monster-battling game Spectrobes.
Doubtless poker and semi-naked pillowfights are the norm for some families too, but let's not dwell on that.
Instead, we'd invite you to take a last, loving look at a broadly familiar top 10 (disturbed only by the entry of THQ Wireless' new Worms 2007 game) before the heavy-weight titles introduced above do their worst to burst its bubble.
As usual, all the games below are available to buy via the O2 games portal, or by texting the shortcode (where supplied) from a compatible O2 handset.
