Asrokhel Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Have you tried: Pocket Legends It's an MMORPG for Android. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595303379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
firey Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Order and Chaos, another awesome MMORPG for Android. Feels more like your typical MMO, wheras Pocket Legends feels more like GW1.

Asrokhel Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 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.

spaceelf Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 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 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phosphorgames.DarkMeadow Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595304293 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Teej Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 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 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595312402 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noir Angel Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 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 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595312406 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon H Supervisor Posted November 15, 2012 Supervisor Share Posted November 15, 2012 I'm surprised no ones mentioned Global Outbreak yet. I've been playing it for a couple weeks now, been completely addicted Tower Defense is a good game as well Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595321598 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotdot Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 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 :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1117843-new-to-android-gaming/#findComment-595325476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi-Wan Kenobi Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 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.
