World of goo came out a couple weeks ago. https://market.android.com/details?id=c ... dofgoofull
GTA III came out yesterday. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rockstar.gta3

They're both impressive. On my OC'd G2 (not exactly high-end) they both run great.

World of Goo is spectacularly smooth and works beautifully. It's the same game you get on PC or Wii, nothing's missing.


GTA III also runs well on my G2 at 1.2GHz, with some occasional minor slowdown. I imagine at 1.5GHz it'd be silky smooth, so I may just see what my battery life looks like with my max clock speed raised to that point. This is a single-core phone with a very dated GPU and it still manages just fine. The controls work very well, with a variety of input options including virtual analog stick and accelerometer. The control scheme is obviously very well thought-out, with the ability to look around by swiping, pinch-zoom on the pause map, and a very intuitive on-screen button layout. The visuals are actually upgraded from the PS2 version, with higher resolution textures, though it's still very obviously a PS2 game.

I'm very, very pleased to see both of these full-size, non-"mobile" titles hitting Android (and iOS). I very much hope Rockstar are planning to port Vice City to the platforms as well. I'd also LOVE to see GTA 2 make the transition as well.

GTA 3 is very exciting for me. I will definitely be downloading that for sure. If they port over Vice City, I will be ecstatic!

Just Dld world of goo

Im addicted to Goo. Dam you MoD. It really is pretty smooth and natural compared to many other similar games.

Well go figure... I download GTA 3 for the iPad and it constantly force closes, not even letting me finish the first mission. Yet my hacked HP Touchpad running Android runs it perfectly. Fail Apple, FAIL.

Yeah it turns out I just dl'd the demo and the full version is nowhere to be found! wtf. Someone also said in the reviews it was $40.. no thanks..

Well GTA 3 is only $4.99, so I gladly played that for something to cure my boredom when i'm away from the house.

So I have noticed some oddball audio glitches from GTA 3. It plays the wrong clips for things...for a while yesterday it was playing a loop of some club music instead of screams from pedestrians. Confusing at first, hilarious later on.
