Conversation Piece: Don't Worry, Get Appy!

Zune Social: tromboneforhire | By: Marques Lyons | 8/25/2010 |


Yeah, I kind of took that from Zune, but I wanted to discuss the current crop of applications that have came out for the Zune HD. Frankly, is anyone even using/playing most of these things on a regular basis? I'll admit that some of these games are pretty darn cool looking (i.e. Gotham Racing, Skate) and even Animalgrams can keep me enthralled for bouts at a time, but um... I don't find myself scrambling to start up the Weather application or the Money application anymore. Sudoku is just lingering on the sidelines and don't even get me started on Shell Game... of the Future.

I know we go after Zune all of the time about their lack of applications (because seriously, who doesn't want to use their Zune HD as a flashlight or have it make awesome lightsaber sounds?). Frankly (as a side note) having a crapload of applications is fine as a number to brag about but when a high majority of them are apps I'd use once and throwaway, give me a number of quality (use everyday) applications you have and then let's talk). But that's a topic for another day.

I want to know what you guys think of the CURRENT crop of Zune HD applications. I know you have an app wishlist somewhere, but you don't have to share that right now. I want to hear which of the current batch do you find yourself using more often than not and which ones are stuck in your application hell.

Speak up, #ZuneNation!
