Another Tegra powered game available now that the XOOM has been launched. Works well on the gtab.

Very cool. Hopefully more companies decide to jump on the bandwagon too.
Somebody who bought this,
Does this have any more stuff in it than just the original game, or just better graphics. Im content saving the three bucks since I already have the original if there is nothing else new. Thanks

is there a chance to play the THD version of fruit ninja on a non-tegra phone? i mean a high end smartphone like SGS or nexus or whatever with a hack of course...is there a hope?
The original Fruit Ninja looks gorgeous already on 3 to 4 inch screens so the THD version may seem like an an overkill for them. In fact i run the THD version on my Gtab and normal version on my HTC Desire and they look exactly the same.

That's the point though... imho... 4 inches streached to 10 looks like drippy monkey poo. Something DESIGNED for 10 inches looks it should with no pixelation.
This game is fun, imho and well done graphics-wise.

Did anyone else read the article(s) on engadget?
And does anyone have said games?
Basically, there have been a few games ported over to android
(Raging Thunder 2, Homerun Battle 3D, Skies of Glory)
that can still play online with iPhone users? I think it'd be epic.
But seriously.
Skies of Glory is in the market for 5 bucks. Just bought it, trying it out.
Raging Thunder 2 is also 5 bucks, buying it as well.
Will not be buying homerun battle, but it is also $5
Has anyone actually played these games?
Skies of Glory: Haven't bought yet,tried it on my friend's iTouch,its an ok game.
Raging Thunder 2: :\ As a racing game,its OK but Asphalt 5 is better.
Homerun Battle 3D: I suck at it.

Do those games require precise multitouch control on the Nexus One?

Not that I'm aware of.
Mainly, as far as I can tell, Raging Thunder is tilting the phone using the accelerometer, and maybe pressing a few places on the screen (brake and boost).
Same thing with Skies of Glory, only instead of brake and boost, it's shoot.
I like to play those "LIVE" text games. Kingdoms Live is one. My cousin has an iPhone 4 and we're in the same army together.
They're addicting though.
Well, as it turns out, I'm bloody horrid at almost every game I play.
I justed install Dungeon Defender and all I can say is WOW!
There is NO OTHER game that shows off the power of this unit..
I am telling you this game kicks ass in graphics, performance and usability (for a tablet).
I highly recommend if you want to have a showcase application that shows off the power of the Tegra 2 PLUS a high resolution screen this is it!
I honestly was shocked how smooth the game looked, how high the textures were...
Anyway... wanted to share my impression for anyone looking for a showcase game or someone who was thinking of purchasing it for their G-Tab.
Yup, I was really impressed with that one. I also thought Dungeon Hunter was also excellent and ran very well on my G Tablet.
Minigore also looks great and runs very well.
I wasnt too impressed with Dungeon Hunter...seemed very dark and low textures were used - plus of course the main menu is all cut off...
I will have to try out Minigore...

Your menu is cut off in Dungeon Hunter? Mine shows up fine. Maybe you got an incorrect version for our tablets.
The textures weren't very good, but I thought the gameplay and overall graphics were otherwise pretty good for a mobile game.
Oops, just read that Mini Gore is from DavinciDevelopers, who stole the game Iron Soldiers. Maybe shouldn't recommend this game after all, especially for $3. My buddy sent me a copy of the APK so I hadn't read the user comments on the market for it.

I bought Dungeon Defenders last night for $2.99. Best lunch money I spent in a long time. Runs full screen no problems on my G-tab VegaNtab 5.1. It is really a fun game well worth the money. You pick a character and defend your crystal by setting up all sorts of barricades & booby traps ( data voice "thats what I said booby trap" ) Overall graphics were top notch you can adjust the graphic quality within the options.
I should also point out I bought "Dungeon Defenders: First Wave" Uses Unreal Engine

Ahh well I've paid 60 bucks for utter piles of poo, so 2.99 is still a darn good deal for a good game.
This game looks pretty cool but it seems to be only multilayer. Is there a game like this that lets you play against AI characters? I like playing games at my own pace since I consider myself a very casual gamer.
I've tried Dungeon Hunter on this tablet but it doesn't paint the levels well and the lighting effects are way off.

I don't know about using a Wii controler but I have one of these I've used for other games on my gTab and will likely use it on this game.
The only thing about this joystick is that the suction sometimes releases and you'll have to be careful so that the ball on the joystick doesn't smack your screen (I was worried the first time it did this as I thought it may crack the screen).
I've seen some other joysticks like this that is low profile and cheaper AFTER I bought this one.
Anyway, it is a solution.

Don't get me wrong I think Android is great but I think it lacks a lot compared to the games for Iphone.
Why havn't the Devs come along and built the same type of QUALITY games for android that they have done for Iphone?
I have just sat for about an hour and hunted in the Android market for games similar to games ive just searched for on the itunes store, and all I can really find is cheap nasty replicas with bad graphics,shocking reviews and even scamming copies of certain games Zombies WAW is one thats on the market now.
Does anyone think/know if the gaming quality will be ever be as good as the Iphone, becasue I hate Iphones and it would kill me to get one to just play decent games.
Hmm, doubt it.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
Why searching the same games? If I want to play iphone like games no doubt the best choice is....iPhone.
Android is the first operating system on phones in the world, and if you want good games you can have plenty... Android is not ios so don't think you'll find the same apps.

+1 for that. Android has many great games. for examples, games made by gameloft have nice graphics. Or from Pocket Legends. Cut the Rope (similar to iOS) also nice, angry birds, etc. Or my other favorite puzzle/mystery games such as mystery of the crystal portal, paranormal agency, etc. Many great games. Maybe it's because there are many more free games in android, many developers just upload crappy games. But if u want to search games that may (or may not) resemble iphone, u'll be pleasantly surprised at the results. Some android phones have better hardware than iphone. So, I guess there'll be many games that u'll love as long as u can find them.
The iphone is the most popular phone in the world.
Game companies want to make the most money possible.
They choose Apple over Android.
...
mega profit?
That is the only reason. That, and the fact that they only have to make one version of said game that will work on pretty much ALL apple devices, whereas, a decent looking Android game wont work on phones without GPU's, which is probably around 40-odd% of all Android phones on the Market.
Eventually, android will catch up with games and apps, and the gap is getting smaller and smaller all the time. It wont take long.

I really do hope they catch up, this is my list of PAID apps which are great but i'm a little disapointed at the THD games there are so few to choose from, I thought that the Nvidia Tegra Zone would be packed with great games, and at the moment there are only appox 15 games avaliable and it's been out quite a while now.

Anyone know how to up the graphics in Modern Combat 4 like on the HOX? I tried the apk modder but it's meant for the One X so naturally it didn't work. I've seen people on YouTube with Nexus 7s playing on highest settings, anyway we can too?

Nexus 7 has it automatically because it is "optimized" for Tegra. I am looking for the same thing on my Nexus 10 which is how I ended up here. LOL I am going to dig through the files and see if I can copy the settings over to my n10, when I have some luck I will let you know. After dealing with these nVidia optimizations in PC games for the last 10 years I can tell you that it is not hardware specific.
I tried it on my p5113 on highest.
Also on medium
Completely unplayable :s

i have it running very nicely on my sungsonic 4.1.2.there is no optimization needed here,it runs nice and smooth

Because Gameloft thinks your device is high end. I have a GS3(US) and they still see it as not powerful enough.
At least include a graphics slider gameloft.
I was wondering if any body out there had a list of compatible FPS games for the Droid 4. I really enjoy gaming on my phone but I'm sick and tired of downloading and installing games such as Modern Combat just to find out at the end of the install that the game is not compatible. I've looked up and down on the net for some kind of compatibility list but can't seem to find any thing at all. These are just a few of the games that I currently have on my Droid 4 that run smoother than a new born baby's butt and I've never had any compatibility issues with what so ever. If you know of any other similar games that work on the Droid 4, please add to the list.....
Dead Trigger
Mass Effect Infiltrator
Dead Space
Shadowgun
Shadowgun DeadZone
Backstab
CS Portable
CM:Swat
Oh WOW! So apparently NOBODY plays ANY FPS on their Droid 4's? Really? That is simply amazing. FYI, in case you guys didnt know. the Droid 4 can play some really good console quality games since it seems nobody knows that.....

You're not the only one! I use emulators on my Droid 4 to play some of my favorite classic console games... EG Mortal Kombat, SNES ROMs.. you get me. So don't feel so alone! And thank you for the list that you have made. I will be checking out all of them!
I'll ask my son. He play a couple of them. I do know some of the games won't show up in Google Play. I have to buy them on my HOX+ but after that I can easily install them and play them on the Droid 4/Photon Q 4G LTE.
