I'm probably going to put some time-wasting games on my phone. Any ideas?

Has anyone tried dark meadows? I've wanted to try it but since n5 is not tegra I doubt it will work, but I know there is a hacked version that I think has the tegra check stripped

Candy crush, real steel and dead trigger 2 playing awesome Even pokemon leafgreen on VGBA:angel:

How's emulator performance, anyone tried them yet (PPSSPP for example)?

I'm installing it now, I'll report back shortly.
EDIT: it runs buttery smooth just as everything else I've tried!

Asphalt 8 smooth as butter even on high,no frame drops anywhere,
modern combat 4 is fantastic too.

I don't own many PSP games but it looks like they work alright.
There were a few sound glitches on a few (this probably has more to do with emulator quality). But the phone smashes through the frames. You even get a decent amount of speed up.

Ppsspp all the way... currently playing dbz n naruto

Anyone tried gaming on this phone?

I wonder how well riptide gp performs on the snapdragon s4 with Adreno 225. Something is wrong with the GS3 international version. It's very choppy when there are other jetskis on screen.

That's good to hear. Now if only there's a way to test the actual fps in a game. I doubt the Egypt off screen benchmarks that reviews trend to use paints an accurate picture of gaming performance. The Adreno 225 performs poorly in off screen test compared to Tegra 3 and Mali400.
Is Nova 3 compatible yet? Btw do games look better on the screen with more pixels ? or about the same as before? Jw since I do not have the phone yet >_<!
Nova3 is awesome on this phone! Super nice graphics. Looked weird on my Atrix4g but silky smooth on the GS3LTE
Also tested Mass Effect Infiltrator with fantastic results.
Downloaded the new Dead Trigger today. Works well with my sixaxis PS3 controller and the game runs like butter! Crazy graphics that rival the ps Vita. Seriously.

Riptide works super smooth... However Dead Space isn't working... It installs but crashes after 20 seconds of the game... Unless someone knows a workaround?

Is there evidence of added visuals? I wonder if running through Chainfire will add anything to the game.

[Q] Any Played Batman: TDKR on their GN7 yet?

Hi all,
Batman The Dark Knight Rises was released today, has anyone here bought it and played it on their Nexus yet?
I'm going to purchase the game later for my HOX but when I get my GN7 I'll probably use up most of my space on this game XD
Thanks,

+100 to that! Anyone know if u can sideload it? Trailer looks great
I was going to buy it just now but read some of the play store reviews, it looks like they messed up the APK itself. Users are reporting 1.8GB APK file + 1.8GB download, total 3.6GB of space for the game.
I've seen the apk floating about on the net and I can see it's only 8.02MB
Give Gameloft until the end of the day, no reason why they launch Spiderman with Nexus 7 support but not The Dark Knight. Seems like a mistake that we aren't supported.

Its updated and we are now supported.

I infact sideloader TDKR and it runs smooth on this gaming beast
here are some screenshots
http://imgur.com/a/3C8MH
edit: They added support FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU waste of my time
Is it really almost 4GB? I would love to buy it but not if it uses that much space.
EDIT - Apparently an update fixed an issue that was causing the games assets to download twice. Installed the game is taking 1.81GB after I played to the 3rd checkpoint.

Can you guys recommend some good tablet optimized games that work well on the nexus and those that are compatible with six axis controller. But if you know any good games please list them. I already have gta vc' mc4, nfs mw, and real football 2013 (soccer).
The bards tale... Great game and very optimized for six axis... It even changes the in game buttons to X and square ect... It's like playing a playstation game on the tablet

'Free'. It makes you pay to get your stuff right away, or you can wait anywhere from 4 minutes to over 1 day. And many of the better upgrades require the same premium currency as skipping wait times. And some of the cars, too. I love it, though, and there are ways to enjoy it.
I saw a hack so you don't have to wait which is what assume you mean by other ways to enjoy it lol.

Asphalt 7 used to work amazingly well with this tablet. The last update ruined it. Instead of enhancing the graphics, the developers have really screwed them up. Plus there are frequent lags while racing.
You can get N.O.V.A 3 or Dead Trigger if you like FPS. Both work well with the six-axis controller app.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who has degraded performance after A7's last update.
Well I just played nova 3 for the first time and its amazing. Haven't tried it with the six axis app yet but looks like it'll work fine with it. Thanks for the suggestions :thumbup:
Edit: downloaded vector as well and its alright. Not very much to it but a fun time killer. But nova 3 is awesome I can't believe I haven't played it before:screwy:

BEat Hazard is a blast on the touch screen. Also great is Super Hexagon.
I really liked Plants vs Zombies, Ninja Village and Magicka. Raiden Legacy is also a game you can pick up anytime to play.
