I'm at a loss, there hasn't been any news on any of the major sites a s nothing from Samsung. Maybe US customers don't get it, just like we don't get Samsung Cloud...

Looking for that too, Heroes of Incredible Tales was listed there which is a freemium game and when I logged in today it showed me "Galaxy Note 7 Special 7 Day login bonus" which gave ingame item bonuses and gems

@SamsungSupport says its not available in the US. Every Android site I've seen talking about it never mentions that.

Aside from the game pack, if I download need for speed from the play store, does this play store version already supports vulkan

I was as upset as you. I found (and help build) a lit on Android Central's Note 7 forum, how to get the free items.
Here is the short run down... there is NO game pack. You need to download/install the games listed from the Play store. Then as you play them, you get the extras built into the game. A few of them immediately say "Welcome Samsung User, here is your gift" and some of them have a gift bundle in their market/store that you click on. One said "Exclusive Galaxy Savings" and it was a bunch of free items that would normally require an in app purchase to acquire. A few of the listed games don't seem to do anything for me at least.
Here is the link, it an active forum, and its on page 7 (at least at this second) http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-7/713198-where-free-vulkan-games.html
It was a very unorganized promo if you ask me.

Thanks for the info. A lot more helpful than Samsung was. Weird way to do a promo

The website your link ultimately goes to shows the following games:
Need for Speed No Limits
Hit
Vainglory
Olympus Rising
Nonstop Knight
Empire: Four Kingdoms
Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft
MARVEL Contest of Champions
Asphalt 8: Airborne
Hungry Shark World
Angry Birds Pop Bubble Shooter
Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes
Sims City Free Play
Clash of Kings
Is that second to last one SIM City or The SIMS?

I thought it was Sim City, but the way it is written leads me to think it is the SIMS. There is not Sims City Free Play, it SIMS Free Play. I googled the offer, and it must be listed that way in the press release because everyone seems to have printed the same error. (BTW Non-stop Knight isn't the right title either)

ilomilo

its finally here today is the release day for ilomilo, this game really shows off what wp7 gaming is about. I cant wait
good luck with that. i cant find it in the market place. or on zune. i suspect its currently only available to americans. typical.
it's out for 4.99 USD! downloading now. It's on the marketplace on the phone, not the desktop
Same here.. not available in non-US market.
Thats rather frustrating. why are non americans still getting the shaft these days ? seems to be the same with the Amazon Kindle app
get ilomilo early even though u cant browse for it in your marketplace.
Just got it here in oz even though it can't be viewed in the marketplace yet.
Instructions:
Go to the ilomilo article at pocketnow.com USING YOUR WP7 BROWSER.
Click on the marketplace link at the bottom of the article.
This should launch marketplace on your phone, and wallah! Ilomilo appears
Or just go to xbox live games in the marketplace with your phone.
Do not search for it as it won't come up that way for some strange reason.

I did this on the xbox and it just gives you a link to download the trial version which I already had.
Anyone upset that we have to pay for it when AT&T customers got it for free?

I am a lil annoyed that at&t got it but that's business at&t would of paid a shed load of cash for it the thing i'm annoyed about is that it meant we had to wait.
Please I need some help. I downloaded this game along with Assassin's Creed from the desktop marketplace but they are not appearing on my phone. Does anyone knows the cause this and if possible a solution.
This game is one of the reasons I want a WP7....Dam CDMA carriers...

Yeah you would think Verizon would make their flagship app work with their flagship phone. But hey, at least they didn't screw up the release date of the 15th...
The NFL Mobile app doesn't work on the G-Nex? What the hell am I paying $10 a month for?
My 3 week old RAZR is sitting on eBay and it does something very important that the G-Nex doesn't. This is sad news.
Well at least my wife has a RAZR. I can watch it on hers.
I agree. This really pisses me off. I work out of town all the time and cant catch up on my NFL. I'm going to reactivate my Bionic and maybe return the Nexus if they don't resolve this quick. There are a bunch off apps that don't run or constantly crash. Verizon visual voicemail keeps crashing in the background also.
VZW states it is a 3rd party app

@calKno This is a third-party application and we do not have an ETA of when it will be available on Nexus. ^LA

The app has certain approved devices that work with it.
I miss it only for the radio streams and the fieldview.

I never used it for the video, just the stats and to keep up with the game when I can't watch or listen to it.

I just don't understand why you would tie it to devices instead of just a Verizon account.

I guess it is a VZW "sponsored" app, so they limit to their phones and dropped the ball in having the developers prep it for SGN or ICS.

It's my understanding that -all- 4G phones, of which the G-Nex is included, are supposed to be able to use NFL Mobile for free. FWIW.
Yes....this is ridiculous. I was looking forward to streaming highlights and video. Now I can't even are a flipping score?
Several other apps not working as well.
I still love this thing though.

Not an issue of being free (which it is). Program doesn't even load up. Says device not yet supported.

I'm from the Netherlands and a great NFL fan.
all my NFL apps are working fine on the GNex.
fantasy football
gamepass mobile
NFL app (this one lets you view scores and highlights and news and such)
so is there a different app you're trying to use?
ps: all apps from NFL enterprises.
The APP we use in the states lets us watch the games live, We get full covereage of the NFL network games (thursday,saturday,sunday,monday night games) and for the bulk of them we use Red Zone to let us watch all the good plays while they happen.
Any chance of being able to maybe.... tinker.... with the ini? maybe trick it into thinking that its something different or maybe its just an issue of screen size again. Similar to swypes issue?

The same as game pass mobile
Only i pay a lot less since i life outside of the usa
It is a bummer that this doesn't work, but there seems to be a little self-contradiction here - a lot of complaints that Verizon GNex isn't a stock google phone, and then more complaints that they didn't do more to change the phone so that it would work with Verizon sponsored apps.

Haven't tried it and IMO based upon their history its not worth it. They often run sales for 99 cents (US) for all their games every couple months, also they only have a certain number of games for the Play, you will run out quickly and probably spend more than if you waited for the sales.
If you had a phone that supported every game they have it may be more worth it, but the Play is only supported by about half their games.

No prob, I believe they are planning a New Years sale so either on New Years eve or day I would bet you can probably get some deals.
I think the 99cent sale on the android market starts tomorrow ...

Apps on sale - Google Play

Just found a whole bunch of apps on sale on Google play. Big reductions for Dead Space and mSecure - Password Manager.

I went for the flick golf. Worth 20p of anyone's money, wasn't keen on the others.

As usual, the market crashes probably because Im from Serbia. Its ridiculous that I have to use Market Unlocker to legitimately purchase an app.
Many of those where on sale for 10p in the last promotion .

All 3 are great deals & worth it, but as mentioned - those are free on Samsung apps
MC3 was free for a limited time too, but suddenly stopped working for me & everyone else, I hope the Google play version works

Dunno, haven't started it. I've wasted 25 cent on just 1 game at the arcade in my youth, so figured that justified it.
This is a great deal, bought 3 apps, prolly gonna buy some more

Lol true... I'll dl once I get home and give it a shot. I've looking for a good RPG on android.
Like the .10 cent promotion where I bought everything on the list, I figure someday in the future, I may (or may not) ever use the app. Maybe on a new device, maybe not.
Even if I don't use it, ever, a dev got paid something and it may encourage that dev to produce more products in the future.
So with that mindset, I'll probably buy everything on this list too, even if I don't use it, just so the dev gets my appreciation for it. Again, who knows, maybe someday I'll actually use some of those apps.
.25 an app. So what, I'll skip a few sodas this week.
Awesome deal. I got Cut the Rope experiments, World of Goo (which i believe was 6.99 just yesterday!), Dungeon Village (same dev as game dev story, awesome) and shark dash, and doubletwist alarm clock. They are all great apps and they costed less then two bucks all together. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on these all week.
