texas hold em and golf games

does anyone have any recommendations for any good texas hold em and golf games for the wizard. preferably free and online play would be a bonus . im finding i mate backgammon to be a great game!

well, links for ppc is great but it's not free. You can get a demo on their site (hexacto) which will let you play one hole. I did , and I was hooked I bought the game the next day

A popular phone means better tools, roms etc.. Perhaps we can put our fav app and fav game. It'll allow fellow users discover relatively unknown but good apps..

It's sad that there are hundreds of dollars worth of apps for free, but that is STILL not enough to make me instantly install the Amazon Appstore... :silly:

Also, note that many apps contain free amazon coins when you install it. I've gathered about $20 of amazon credit till now from free apps

Can't even get Amazon coins in Australia, lol. Already have Root Explorer too.

Thanks. I've been waiting to pick up Plex.

All of these apps check to see if amazon store is installed and logged in to your account. If amazon app store is uninstalled or not logged in these apps won't work. So keep that in mind...

What to blow my $30 Google Play Credit on

Sheild TV arrived today from Amazon USA, to me here in the UK and I activated my $30 credit via a vpn.
I bought it mainly to run emulators on but is there anything really worth buying in the play store or should I save the credit for the upcoming stuff.
I was leaning towards Doom 3 BFE as I missed out on that on the PC somehow, but it has mixed reviews on the play store?
Any suggestions or other recommendations? I tend to prefer action games over puzzle or strategy games if that helps. Do the Shield games go on sale like the other play store stuff, I can't seem to find a good play store price tracker?

I bought my Shield via Amazon a couple of months ago. Never figured out how to get the Google Play credit. Did you get a redemption email or something because I don't think I did?
PS: I also live in the UK.

In US there is a Google Play Store sale. Not sure about UK but picked up NBA jam for 60 cents. I used my credit for small purchases. Droidmote, robert bruglia's sega emulator, gamesome frontend donation. I can't see spending it all on only halflife & doom

Yes just talk to Amazon on life chat. They will give you the key. You have to redeam that on the Nvidia website and they email you the actual Google play redemption key. Change your play settings to a us store and fictitious us address and then redeeam the key. If you Google there are numerous guide on how to do it. But pm me if you get stuck

I got the movie "Home" because my nieces stayed the night the day it came in.
A few emulators that were Shield friendly.
Doom 3 because I remembered it being pretty fun.

Just to say thanks to @baileyjr who I PMd and helped me too get the 30 USD credit
Now I too have a predicament of what to spend it on. For anyone who has spare PS3 (or PS4) controllers lying around, I'd highly recommend the paid app Sixaxis Controller: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller (requires root).
Other paid games which I enjoy are:
~ $7: Wind-Up Knight 2 (Platform) (IAP Unlock)
£0.79: Goat Simulator (Comedy)
£5.00: GTA: San Andreas
£1.59: Riptide GP2
$10 Each: Portal and the Half Life 2 Episodes (Puzzle)
I know you said you don't like puzzle games baileyjr, but for anyone else Half-Life 2 is one of the best and does have plenty of action too. It's graphics seem to have been slightly upgraded since its PC release in 2004 and it has about the best graphics of any Shield TV game I've played so far.
As for emulators, before I try any paid emulators I'm going to have a crack at the open source, multiplatform Retroarch which just received a major update.

Last night I picked up Doom 3 and for some bizarre reason it didn't deduct any funds out of my credit, so I then picked up Half Life 2 as well, I will have a look at HL2 episode 2 as well :good:
Emulators I can highly recommend and are free are:
PPSSPP https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ppsspp.ppsspp&hl=en
Reicast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reicast.emulator&hl=en_GB
Mupen 64 alpha 21 http://www.paulscode.com/forum/index.php?topic=1818.0
The alpha of Mupen 64 is not availiable in the play store and is far better and easier to set up than the retroarch version.
Also Dolphin is worth a look, but its not running at full speed yet apart for few odd games.
I'm really glad you got it all sorted out. And remember Amazon should refund your import charges deposit if it came through without inuring any. Hit them up on a live chat if you dont get them back.

Out of curiosity what are you guys from uk using for the us plug ? just a travel adapter ? that's what i'm using but would like a proper uk power lead

Yes just a travel adaptor

I'm also using a US power adapter. I'm really hoping they sell the UK brick separately after the Shield's UK release as I don't want to be stuck with a US adapter forever.

Anyone know of any good n64, snes, gamecube, or nes emulators? Nothing has been working well for me

Most of the apps that I've purchased have been emulators or apps that somehow compliment the emulators.
What I've bought so far:
Drastic: DS emulator that works great for DS games that don't require touch input.
PPSSPP Gold: Amazing PSP emulator.
ePSXe: PS1 emulator
FolderSync: Lets you sync local folders with remote folders (using services such as Dropbox). I use this to sync my game saves to Dropbox so that I can have my game saves synced across all of my devices.
Tasker: I use Tasker to trigger FolderSync to sync all of my folder pairs when my device receives a certain text (so that I can trigger a folder sync when I don't have access to the device) .
My Game Collection: Lets you keep track of and organize your video game library.
There are a few more apps that I've bought but they aren't related to emulation/gaming.

Free apps and games today only

Through amazon underground app store. A couple free apps I downloaded: KOTR, goat simulator, riptide gp2, monument valley, officesuite pro, and a few others.
Edit: forgot to mention, most games include free in-app purchases.
Amazon makes more than a dozen Android apps & games free during holiday sale
