I knew I forgot to mention one.

They briefly had O&C as a facebook game, but refused to fix all the bugs, and because they were getting so many complaints about them, instead of fixing the bugs, they shut the facebook game down.

Cheers will give some of these a try :)

Im looking for a decent 2D/3D Shooter like R-Type/1942 and such

Ive heard of a live wallpaper thats similar but alas cant find it.

Not exactly a side scroller, but a similar 3D idea, great game too

You might try installing NVs TegraZone app, that gives you a heads up on games that actually use the graphics capabilities.

Speaking of TegraZone, Dark Meadow: The Pact is Tegra 3 exclusive and looks pretty mean, it tells me it is compatible with my TF101 (Tegra 2) but it won't load after install

Download Free

The only thing I will say about NOVA 3 is that it runs a bit like arse on Tegra platforms, and I have no idea why. Apparently the game runs fine on an SGS3, which while it has a different processor, the horsepower is comparable. A bit of a shame, as it looks like a good game, but I find the choppiness of the game an annoyance.

Ran like sh** on my TF101 when it was running ICS, but since installing JellyBean it runs great, nice and smooth and the compass look setting is pretty fun, bit difficult to control but feels like VR

Gameloft's Block Breaker 3 game isn't too bad if you can overlook the fact that it's freemium (You can play for free but you have to buy more balls), Can Knockdown 2 is also pretty good, as is Paper Toss

not trying to hijack a thread, but there are some really good suggestions on here! Glad this thread was created! Cheers, OP! (Y)

There's also my game ;) https://play.google....=com.tangledapp

Good job, man! I'm going to have to try this out, eventually! (Y)

Awesome peeps. Some great suggestions in this thread.

Will be downloading this lot tonight and trying them out. Loving checking this thread every few days and getting more games to sift thru.

Its all very well chancing your luck on the app store (tho folk seem to give everything 4-5 stars), but very handy when you have actual recommendations to go on.

Keep em coming folks :)

Don't know if you are willing to pay for any games, as most you can find for free, but I'll stick my nose in and suggest Assassin's Creed. It's really not too bad on a mobile. I know I sure do love it! Global Outbreak is pretty fun too, as well as Subway Surfer, Angry Gran Run, or Streaker! (Streaker is hilarious, IMO). Another one of my fav's is NBA Jam...BOOM SHAKKALAKKA! Most awesome basketball game I've ever played, and quite funny too. The announcer is awesome, just like back in the SNES days.

    • Good. I hope more people sue them for focusing on this worthless junk.
    • How about fire the guy who approved all the bad decisions? The guy who bought these studios in the first place? Oh wait, Satya is safe with his billions while the workers pay the price.
    • This had nothing to do with games. This is all about management wanting to squeeze as much money from Xbox to keep Microsoft's AI ambitions afloat. Someone has to make money to burn on AI.
    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product. If needed, you can RMA or return locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, mainland E.U. has a German warehouse).
