Haha, yeah I've been waiting for this game to get ported for a while now. There's still a few more that I hope to see. I hate hearing the whole "play me at this game" ... searching... searching... Android doesn't have it. "Guess you should have got an iPhone" argument. Despite some of the crappy reviews I'm seeing, it's playing damn smooth for me. And you can't beat free with no ads (yet?)

Was looking forward to this
But with ics near, it's the least of my concerns atm.
Although I could play to kill the time.

Now I can finally compete with my iphone friends ;D
And boy does it run smooth on our phone haha

That's about the only thing apple has over Android..the vast selection of quality games. We're starting to slowly get em but it's undeniable the games are lacking on. Android. I'd love to play gta 3 and ufc on my gs2's larger screen oppose to tiny iPod touch.

we do have GTA 3

I've been counting down the days for this to come out. I've been playing it lately on my old iPad, but the tilting it around just sucks (especially with that slippery aluminium backing!)
I teetered just shy of a million points on the iOS version, now I need to prove to my friend the tilting is what was holding me back.
I've since put my iPad away since I can rock it on my Android devices!

Drool....DROOOL!!!!!

Eh never cared much for that game.

But those were just 2 that came to mind...there so many games that I'd love to have on Android fromiPod touch. Hell if Android made decent mp3 player other than the non expandable Samsung one or freaking 5 in one I wouldn't even got iPod touch.

This game is as awesome as it looks, looks even better on my GS2 , quick question though, for some reason when I'm on games if I don't touch the screen it auto locks as if the app isn't running, some apps like benchmark apps it doesn't do this but games like temple run and nfs it does, any reason why and maybe a solution? Thanks.

There's no concrete release date yet but have you signed up to be notified first? I did. I honestly don't know what it's all about but my girlfriend is going crazy over it. Lol. I suspect it will be out within a week or two.

Gaming With S4?

I wanted to ask fellow US SGS3 owners about gaming. I came from an international HTC One X where games were effortless but I just loaded NoVa 3 (which i paid for) and its a total lag fest. Can the Adreno 225 GPU handle current high end games or am I out of luck?
please share experiences or if the game is to blame because im discouraged
. thanks

Not sure about Nova3, but I play sentinel 3 with the HD pack and its totally smooth. Maybe nova is more motion intensive but sentinel 3 has a lot going on and never seems to lag at all.

I came from a galaxy note and i can tell you this plays games smoother than the Note. Dead Trigger, shadowgun, real racing 2 and modern combat 3 are all smooth as silk
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

my apologies. i realized that i had power savings turned on in the notification tray that scales down the cpu making it lag. now it plays much better (occational stutter in nova 3) but The Dark Knight Rises plays great.

Now that I have seen the pics the graphics look a little lower, but it doesn't bother me. It plays smooth. I won't trade smoothness for better graphics.

I have not really had a problem with the high-end games. Good luck.

I'm not worried about performance, I'm worried about heat. I want to hook my phone up to my TV, Bluetooth a controller to it, and play ff3 and ff1 on it that way. Would my phone melt in the process? I know with Bluetooth going, and the phone being charging through the mhl adapter, I'm scared of ruining my phone. Any feedback I would greatly appreciate it.

Mine gets warm doing the exact same thing but nothing more.

I just dunk mine under water when it gets a little too hot. But only 1" of water! Any more than that could be dangerous.

Make sure you lay the phone face down so the camera is facing up too. The heat disperses quicker through the speaker grill.

I'm not having any issues with lag either. I play Dead Trigger and Shadowgun with the graphics on high. Gotta love the gameklip + ps3 controller! :thumbup:
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

I've been having lag issues with intense graphical games like NOVA 3, which I thought was strange since it ran on my SII so smoothly. I've finally gotten it stomped out, I installed KT747 kernel and played around, finally got smooth performance by switching the governor. I personally use abyssplug/bfq. Gaming is now liquid smooth, even when underclocked to 1350. Try it out folks.

Any good toddler learning apps on android?

I been searching for.some time now for any educational apps for my 18 months son with little luck.
Most apps are geared towards older children,not to mention not too many have child lock on them to prevent children from hitting capacitive buttons.Seem like all good children's apps or on ipad/iPhone and I won't to avoid this option if I can help it.
Anyone know of any good apps?
Here are few apps that I have so far that are usefull and not too complicated for children that are 1-3 years old.
1 Toddle Animal Numbers (Probably the best one,its educational and its free)
2 Undersea Adventure for Toddler (Not really educational but a fun and simple game,and its free)
3 Kids Doodle Paint (Best thing about this is that it has child's lock built in,so you can go to sleep while they draw and not have to worry about them turning it off,this one is free too)
And that's about it,yeah I know that's a damn shame.Rest that I tried is to complex.

The sprout app is a good app i use

Apps by intellijoy.
Also, there are lots of interactive books by people like "Oceanhouse media" (the book reads and the child interacts with the page.)

This is a good thread, I have an app called "kid mode" that has a lot of stuff in it, my 18 mo old daughter likes it.

They are toddlers...
They can take your iPad, S3 or whatever you have before you blink. So its better find them with the phone in theirs hands than see your gadgets on the toilet or trash can because they got bored.
Thats why also I have a Otter Defender.

If I had kids I would. Getting them a grasp of new things at an early age is important and most useful for the future. Smartphones are only materialistic items so I wouldn't care really unless they're looking at things they aren't supposed too.

Color & Draw for kids phone ed
Kids Connect the Dots Lite
Thomas Game Pack
Kids Piano Lite
Zebra Paint

And here is the toddler lock I used to use before he really knew how to handle a phone.
Toddler Lock

When my daughter was 18 months old she liked learning animal sounds, She particularly liked the cat on this one Toddler Animal Sounds by Bluphant Games, They also do a paid for version which has a child lock built in it.
Now she's 3 however it's Peppa Pig all the way!

Plague Inc

Just a heads up this app does NOT like JRO03S at all.. consistent crashes and a horrible experience.

The game does not like my GNex, constant crashes usually always 20 mins into the game.

I beat normal lol focus on transmission and do t worry about lethality till it spreads everywhere then crank it up and watch em go lol

O.k this is kinda cool, fun to play when you're in a destructive mood! Only played 3 times lost twice on normal but wiped out the world in 540 days on casual
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

Have it on iOS but on the iPod it was just too hard to play. Nexus is perfect size.
The trick on the first level is devolve symptoms immediately when they mutate until the entire planet is infected. Store up as much DNA as you can so you can become lethal as soon as you decide to pull the trigger. I had 124 DNA points when I decided to start killing everyone.
Game is superb fun. Great music too.

I've bought a few in-game purchased to help me along, the best one is to auto-pop the bubbles. I've been able to decimate the globe on casual after only playing it about 5 times, I just can't beat it on normal. Its either that I make it too lethal before it spreads everywhere or I make it spread everywhere and kill half to 3/4 of the population but then they cure it.
The game also annihilates my battery, I'm running Clemson's elite kernel and when I have the game fast-forwarded it takes up so much power that even when I have it plugged in it won't charge the battery but just sustain the current level and maybe decrease it by one or two percent!

I've been waiting for this game - Plague Inc.

Just want to share with the community. Released on Android a few hours ago...

Yeah, it's the same concept as pandemic 2 (flash cpu game) I tried it out on a friends Iphone and 3 months later the port to android was released. There are touch screen interactions which make this version unique. I'm enjoying so far.

This seems really similar to Patient Zero -- but an actual game... woot! I can't wait ^_^
