Recently, Windows Phone 7 users out there got two new mobile games to try out on their handsets, both of them XBOX LIVE titles, namely Rise of Glory and Revolution.

Since the support for XBOX LIVE was touted as one of the main advantages that the new mobile operating system from Microsoft has over other platforms out there, it made sense for the company to try to push out as many such games as possible to its users.

The first of the two new apps, Rise of Glory, arrives on Windows Phone 7 as a First World War flight simulator that should offer a great experience to all those interested in such type of games.

Players would have the possibility to try out various planes either in single player campaigns or while playing skirmish user defined missions.

Coming straight from the Microsoft Game Studios, the title would offer impressive graphics, along with realistic aircraft behavior and challenging AI, all contributing to an incredible overall experience.

The second new game from the Redmond-based company, available now via the Windows Phone Marketplace, would be Revolution, a cog-based spatial puzzle that would offer a nice range of challenges to those interested in giving it a try.

The game also offers full integration with XBOX LIVE, offering users the possibility to collect achievements and compare them against those of friends via online Leaderboards.

Some of the main features of this mobile game would include:

- 75 Unique and challenging levels.
- Varying difficulty, (Easy to Hard)
- XBOX LIVE Achievements (20, Gamerscore 200)
- XBOX LIVE Leaderboards (Time and Score)
- Intuitive User Interface
- Original sound effects and music.
- Progress is saved automatically.


Both Rise of Glory and Revolution were included in the app storefront with a price tag of $2.99 attached to them.
