Android GAMING topic!

[Jax_Omen]

So yeah we need a topic to discuss and recommend games! Please leave the recommendations for emulators out of this topic, we all know about them and downloading or discussing how to download any ROMs for them is very much against the rules......

So I'm going to start with discussing a few of the games I have. I couldn't resist the allure of Worms (by EA), I love the series. Android version is pretty good, true to the series' roots at least, and controls fairly well, although I'm fond of ninja rope antics on the PC versions and they are IMPOSSIBLE to do on the touchscreen controls!

I've also been playing "Wheelz" by Chozabu on my phone. Reminds me of Trials HD on my xbox, only with a monster truck. Controls pretty well, lots of levels for free.

Another one that's kinda neat is Hex Defense. Best of the Tower Defense games I've played, but I don't think I'd pay full price, it's pretty easy, honestly, and the levels are too short. I got it for a buck when it came out >_>

Other than that, I mostly burn time playing WordUp, which is basically Android Boggle >_>

So what do you guys play? Other than Angry Birds of course

I guess I'm pretty dull when it comes to games.  In addition to the 'obigatory' Angry Birds, I have:

Trivial Droid

Words with Friends

Omok

I'm still sort of wary about loadiing too many apps...just not used to having so much space on a phone! 

[Jax_Omen]

Man, so Sony Ericcson announced the Xperia Play... coming to Verizon. Almost makes me want to switch >_>

Should be awesome for us gamers.

Cannot BELIEVE I forgot Open Tyrian: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.googlecode.opentyrian


One of my favorite games of all time, ported to Android from DOS! Controls fantastically if you have a physical keyboard device, offers functions like auto-fire so you have less buttons to hold on your phone. And it's the full thing! AND it's free!

i can't get anything from gameloft to install (wanted to check out the shrek racing game)??? do you know if these hd games won't run on the incredible?

[Wildman]

I have a friend that has a Incredible and Evo and most HD games will not open correctly and run on these devices, I am not sure if the software or hardware causing this but they run perfectly on my Droid X..  From what I was told this may be a issue with the Snap Dragon processor performance issue because until recently N.O.V.A. was released specifically for a SnapDragon processor devices.

bummer. they look like great games. when i go to the site, the inc is an option for "type of device" but then when i select it and put in my phone number, it just doesn't continue on to the next step in the process. oh well.
