No Verizon phone comes with games. If the 3450 gets released for VZW, the games will be stripped from the phone. I believe the VX3400 will most likely be released for VZW, while the 3450 might be Alltel and/or USCC.

Wrong but good try. For starters some of the nokia's still have games. If I'm not mistaken the 2128 did have them. Second they are both VZW phones, although I can't remember what the LG rep said 6 months ago about the difference between these 2. Like yeahright said I think one has get it now and the other has a few games and no get it now.

Since Verizon launched Get it Now, they've stripped the free games from their phones....

Really. Not trying to be a dick but as I said there are still nokia's that have games. I don't have a 2128 to play with but I am almost positive it had games. Plus I found a 2285 laying around and guess what it has games. Both of which came out after the release of get it now. So no not all verizon phones have been stripped of free games.

Does the VZW version of the 2128i have games pre-installed? As I posted before, I'll believe it that VZW lets some phones have games pre-installed when i see it. But to my knowledge, since they (VZW) started offering color phones and Get it Now, the games were stripped from their phones. I will have to go to my local VZW store to see if they have a working Nokia 2128i for me to test out. But I will stand firm for now that VZW phones don't have games on them. One of my previous phones, the Kyocera 2235 did have games on it, but that was because it had a monochrome screen, no Get it Now at that time, ...

I' still stand firm that neither LG phone will come with any games pre-installed. As for those who said that the Nokia 2128i had games pre-installed, I checked out a model at my local VZW store and it does not come with any games pre-installed, but you can download them from Get it Now. Also for the one who thought I didn't work for VZW based on what I said that I would have to check it out. Well I never claimed to work for VZW or any agent. I get some of my info from boards like this, plus checking out the product myself. Just like Nokia was going to offer 7 games on an mmc card for the Nokia 6255i & 6256i. That idea fell through before the phone was released for both carriers. I should say that it was Nokia that was going to offer t...

wrong! the 2128 does not have get it now, it has games. You did not hold one in your hand and look you may have just glanced at a box. Over 6 months ago Verizon recalled all no2128's becasue the packaging was wrong. All these phones were to be shipped back to Verizon so the packaging could be changed. The problem...The boxes said get it now when the phone didn't support it. So if you found one in a box that said get it now then that store needs to send them back if they actually still have some available for sale.

I'm going by what my local VZW corporate store had. I did check back and I was wrong that it had Get it Now, but the phone still doesn't have a single game on it. Unless you got lucky and a Verizon version slipped through the cracks, when the phone was meant for another carrier, then I otherwise think the phone you have is either flashed from a different carrier, or you're using a different phone. I'm sorry, but I have a hard time believing you on that one. As for the LG VX3400/3450, I was surprised both were released at the same time. No difference other than looks, and no games available on either phones. I could careless though and willing to drop the issue and move onto a different topic. I still need to get onto howard forums and...

my lord you are stuborn, i sold the stupid phone for 6 months and every single one was brand new in verizon packaging and everyone came with games on it. I have three of them sitting in my store right now, on ene is prepaid, one is an old one a customer turned in when they upgraded we are donating and one is being serviced, every single one has games on it. As far as the 3450 goes i am not 100% sure yet because we have not received the phones here in the store yet, but I know for a fact the phone was originally made with them unless Verizon stripped them, but if it has no get it now ten there is no reason to.

😳 are you kidding me. What is so hard to understand about the 2128 having games. You claim you get all your info from here and other places like it but yet you won't listen to a dam thing we say. I understand where you are coming from when you say you don't believe that these new ones will have games, but seriously why can't you seem to understand that just because get it now was born doesn't mean that games don't exist on other phones. I am done, it doesn't matter what your told your never going to change your mind apparently.

As I posted below, I will see for myself if the Nokia 2128i from VZW has games pre-installed or not. Otherwise I stand firm that current VZW phones don't have a single game pre-installed. Since color phones started being offered, that was around the time that VZW started to launch Get it Now, and noticed that phones were longer being offered games p...

I know not all phone don't have Get it Now, but I don't remember the LG VX3200 or VX3300 having games on them. I had considered the LG VX3200 at one time, but took a pass on it because I wanted a phone that had the ability to put games on it, as money allowed. I got the Samsung a650 in 2004, but money restrictions kept me from getting a single game. I will believe that a new VZW phone has games on them when I see it. Otherwise, I stand by my word that VZW phones don't have games pre-installed on the phones (pre-Get it Now), especially if the phone has the VZW UI on them.

that was lg's choice, those phones never had games from the start. Just remember this in a month when you proven wrong. 😛

Seriously what don't you get here. We sell phones and I beleive by your comment of having to go to the store to look at the 2128 means you don't work for verizon. We are not lying to you, there are a few phones that have games. I really don't see what the big deal is if they do or don't. It seems like there always are a few out there. get it now has been out since the moto 720 and there were some phones before that which had brew. Like you said the 2235 had games which i forgot about, most of the nokia's did also. As you stated previously the 2285 was non gps. wrong, it has gps and I have seen some still floating around out there brand new, and guess what it has games. Snake 2, space impact 2, and bumper. By the way there were als...

the 3400 is geared towards the older crwod while the 3450 is supposed to be more targeted towards kids is how the lg rep explained it to me. The only difference i could find when playing with them was that the 3450 had games and was a little smaller, but not by much. I know the 3450 will not come with get it now, i am not sure if the 3400 will offer this, can't remember it was a while ago and i was more interested in playing with the 8300 at the time 😎

Obviously I figured that out after viewing the
picture of the 3450 - which is not on phonescoop - discussions on this phone made it seem as though the only difference was one had games & other didn't - or one was going to be sold thru Verizon vs another outlet - or whatever when in fact these are 2 completely different phones physically as well - I was just pointing that out.
