Found a video saying that it should be out by the end of this week and it is demoed on a Xoom so that means it will be tablet compatible.
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F10D_qwQtZ0
Will be free on Amazon Appstore...
Will be free of charge on Amazon App store for a day some time end of this month.
From the web:-
PopCap is finally bringing its quirky, bright colored games to Android. The Seattle based company has signed an exclusive agreement with Amazon to bring its first Android games to the Amazon Appstore. Leading the launch will be the googly-eyed furballs game, Chuzzle. And at the end of the month, the fan-favorite Plants vs. Zombies will be made available. Both games will be featured as the "App of the Day" in the Amazon Appstore and will be free of charge those days. After that, the games will be priced at $2.99 each.
I hope everyone is right and this is coming tomorrow.
Yeah its free on amazon app store today, since its not for tablets its kind of pixelated, oh well!

hmm...thats weird, bc in the youtube video it is played on the Xoom.
Ok, this game made me take the leap and join the amazon app market; which so far seems to be cooler then the Android Market...for now...
Anyway, about the game: It is very very cool. On the Xoom you can def see the pixelation(hope they fix that), but it is more they playable on the Xoom.

You should have joined Amazon appstore already just for the reason it gives you a free app everyday. It is definitely playable on the xoom. The only downfalll is when you collect new plant, it slows down a bit and pixelated.

The one in amazon is not tablet optimized but if u search for it on google pvz lepad u should find the tablet optimized. The i've been playing it on my zoom for a week now. I its for tegra devices only. It's weird though the tablet optimized is 47mb only and the one in amazon is 70mb

Thank you thank you! The lepad version is MUCH better than the Amazon market version by a mile. Guys, you will have to delete the Amazon version before installing the optimized version or it will not work. If you get a black screen when trying to load the new version, just quit the app and start again..great graphics!
works like a charm. thanks for the hint

Its also v1.0.0 and the market version is like v1.1
I suspect they will put another version out. Something has to be missing in the v1.0.0 build.
I suppose this explains why I see two different versions of PvZ out there, but to be honest I will just stick with the Amazons versons...No, offence to plants vs zombies levono, but I usually like games like this that are still fully supported and can be updated with a click of a button like with android market and amazon appstore.
But ty for clearing up my confusion as to why their are two different looking versions of PvZ.
thanks for posting the tablet ver it looks so much better than the one on amazon... i still got the amazon anyways so when they do fix it i can just redownload it
Bah no love for Non-US users. I'll try the lenovo one.

Probably just keep this going and update the original post so the board doesn't get full with crap. Only problem is the apps get released at 2:00am my time. I probably won't have the thread updated till about 6:00am CST.

Always good to have as a reminder, and maybe reviews. I downloaded it on my N1 today, haven't had time to try on my Xoom. But free is good, so the worst that can happen is I don't like it and have to blow it away. My only complaint, after rooting tonight and having to reinstall the Amazon apps is that it only lets you download and install one at a time, quite the PITA since I had over a weeks worth of stuff to catch up on. 12 downloads, one at a time.
Today's app is Fruit Ninja but it does not appear to be the version designed for Tegra processors.

Really wish it was the THD version. But free is free.
Weatherbug Elite today. Grab it for your phone and get the free tablet version from the market.
I wanted to try this app!
Thanks!
Flight control today. Tablet ready.
Thanks.... got flight control
Get it while you can. Ad free and looks fantastic on the tablet.
This version of Backbreaker Football will not play on the Xoom. However, there is a THD version out there if you really want to play the game.
sorry I missed flight control; I bet it looks great on the Xoom..
I have a hd backbreaker file. It seems like this forum doesn't accept .apk postings of actual files... if anybody wants me to upload it to rapidshare or something just let me know
as the title says, even have access to magazines that I couldn't use with the Galaxy Tab version. Download and signup before 15th June and get some free magazines.
Enjoy

This will be a solid app after a few more updates. Runs fairly slow and feels clunky. I am sure it will get there though. Can't wait!

Finally! geeez
Been waiting for this! Awesome sauce!
I've been waiting for this thing to come out since I got my XOOM and was pretty excited yesterday. However I must agree it does seem pretty slow. It took way to long to download 1 magazine and I even had problems with pages never becoming clear until after I skipped a page or 2 then went back. Overall I still love it, when the pages are clear they are more crisp and clean than nook or kindles magazines and the obvious fact there are a lot more magazines to choose from.

I don't always keep the best track of stuff, but when I woke up I found an email saying that today Peggle was free for download. I went to the page then tried to "buy it" via the amazon appstore app on my coom and got an incompatible error. But, I didn't give up, no, I just "bought it" from the site and when it showed up in the download area on my amazon appstore app I downloaded it and it installed and is working as well as plants vs zombies on my Xoom.
I can confirm that the method OP used, does in fact work. Was getting the same incompatible device message, and getting it through the website worked. Was able to "buy" Peggle and then it showed up in the downloads on my Xoom.
Not available in the Market?

I wouldn't mind a THD version, but to be the graphics are good enough expecially for a game I got for free, but to be honest I am hoping they just update like the maker of angry birds did instead of us having to "buy" the game again...
Actually, to be honest I find this to have better graphics then PvZ which is odd bc Amazon said that PvZ was good with Tabllets and that Peggle wasn't
PVZ graphics are way better. At least the version I have. The game is fun though. Thanks OP for the trick to make WIFI downloads work. The game is fun and takes me back to my Shenmue days when I would spend a lot of time playing a similar game.
I was able to install from the appstore app on xoom just by trying a few times. Works perfectly.
so this game was supposed to be released today. has not hit tegrazone or market yet...also androidpolice had two posts up related to shadowgun in the past 20 minutes, including one saying that it was released but they pulled them down right after they were posted.
anyone know whats going on with this highly anticipated release?
Check the android market right now. I just checked and it is up in there. I don't know if it is on the tablet market, because I'm at work right now, but it is on the web market. Can't wait to go home and play it!
yup you are correct! they just put it up. downloading it now
Wtf Is it just for me or does the game not work properly?
when I am about to start a new game and after I have chosen the difficulty i just get a black screen and nothing happens.

Good for certain things, like the Driller boss.
This game is ridiculous. I love it. How are you getting video game system controllers working with it? I have been unable...
I keep getting failures on downloads, so I found a place to download the SD Card content in .zip format, yeah, I know, but I bought it and want to play it.
Anyway, where on the "SD Card" are they supposed to go?
Thanks,
Gameloft should learn from Madfinger or EA to make their game, high graphic quality but less data capacity. (1.7 Gb for Tintin vs ~400 mb for shadowgun).

@keu nhu vac
Gameloft has been using its own game engine. It was supposed to switch to Unreal 3 starting with March of Heroes, but MoH was canceled. But look for future GL games to be using the new game engine.
BTW, Shadowgun uses the Unity engine, which has a free Windows version for would-be game devs. The non-pro Android add-in costs $400, which is still peanuts relatively speaking.

I've seen footage of it on youtube, but because it's paired via bluetooth it's slow, like if you are moving forward and let go of the analog, you proceed to move forward for a short period because of the lag between controller and tablet.

Yeah, HD doesn't show up cuz the market automatically hides apps that aren't compatible with your device... The HD one showed up when I clicked Rovio's name on the web market (https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Rovio+Mobile+Ltd.) and the comments seem to show that EeePad Transformer TF101 with version 1.0.1, Samsung Galaxy Tab with version 1.0.1, and Galaxy Tab 10.1 with version 1.0.1 are all compatible. The XOOM shares the SAME EXACT Tegra 2 processor as the GalTab 10.1 and Transformer, which is even BETTER than the processor in the original GalTab. I really see no reason for my XOOM not to be compatible; same resolution, screen size, processor, etc. as both the Transformer AND the GalTab 10.1, PLUS the Transformer is also on ICS 4.0.3... Grrrrrrrr. I'm kinda angry. I just wanna give Rovio my money .
Hmmm it appears that both have the same version 1.01, strange
I am running teameos wingray nightly 84 and it doesn't appear. If I logon to play.market.com and look at Angry Birds HD it tells me that some of my devices are compatible. The device that is compatible is MZ604,which is my stock rom, but not Xoom which is what the teameos rom shows as.
Interesting. I'll check it out in a few.

This is ridiculous. I can't install it on my WiFi-only Xoom. After checking on the web Market --uh, Store-- it shows up as available for one of my devices: my Xoom when I had changed the build.prop to the Verizon Xoom.
That is, again, RIDICULOUS. I decide I'm going to spend money on these guys to support them and I can't because I have a WiFi-only device?
**** them, I'll pirate the HD version whenever I find it.
Yes, there's a free version which works fine and still looks beautiful... but, come on. This is just stupid.
</rant>
The game is really fun, btw.
It says it's compatible with my Wingray. I'm running the stock rooted ROM.
For some reason it now says it's compatible... URGGGGGG finally!
NM, not gonna get the HD version. See http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/03/23/angry-birds-space-hd-is-finally-available-in-the-play-store-for-2-99-but-honestly-rovio-why/ because apparently it looks and practically is the exact same.
I downloaded Angry Birds Space HD to my Xoom and, with the exception of fixing the improperly sized intro graphic, the game looks nearly identical. The free version looks just as good on my display. Which leaves me to wonder what I just spent $3 on. Maybe the differences would be more noticeable on the Transformer Pad Infinity, or the new iPad, but here on an Android tablet that actually exists, that $3 seems to buy you absolutely nothing.
I don't have a problem with paid versions of games. In fact, I'd prefer it to the alternatives. However, Android, as a platform, is built so that you don't need to have multiple versions to support different device types. From the ground up, Android has been designed so that things like screen resolution or aspect ratio won't break an app. So, when a game developer deliberately breaks off an "HD" version, it's annoying. When that "HD" version doesn't actually offer any improvements over the original, though, it feels like theft.
Oh, and not to add injury to insult or anything, but if you're considering buying this app now anyways, take a look at some of the reviews first. It seems that some users are experiencing crashes and difficulty loading the HD app. If you're feeling gutsy, though, here's a widget just for you.

Quite honestly, I'm glad someone else made the same exact mistake I almost made right before I made it. I was disappointed and happy at the same time when that popped up in my RSS feed...
Want to see something weird? See the file sizes for the Free and the HD version. Free is ~23 MB, while HD is ~17 MB. Yes, you read right: 23 and 17.
How is an HD version smaller than a normal one? Apart from the ads (which don't come with the game, since they're downloaded off the net)... what's been added onto the Free version? Or, even worse, what's been substracted from the HD version?
