Android Games Sale - Gameloft High End Games

So if you haven't heard of Gameloft, they are a company that makes some of the best games for Android.  The games generally have really good graphics and last a long time.  After reading an article, I found out starting tomorrow on December 29th all of there games which are normally $5 to $7 are going to all go on sale for $0.99  I would recommend games like:
  • Asphalt 6 - Probably the best racing game on android, you can play multiplayer via wifi
  • Uno - Just a great card game
  • 9mm HD - Although grand theft auto has come to android, I still like this game a lot better for 3rd person player, this game is more of a similar storyline to True Crimes
  • Modern Combat 3 - I'll give you one guess about which game this is like
  • Order & Chaos Online - The closest thing to World of Warcraft on a phone or tablet
  • Adventures of Tintin HD - If you like the movie, this is a really great looking good game
  • Where's Waldo? - Because everyone loves a good game of Where's Waldo
  • Backstab HD - Think Pirates of the Caribbean but this game is actually good. 
  • Cowboys & Aliens - It's like an old TNMT or Sunset Riders kinda game
Enjoy!

***New Google App*** Google Currents: Its The Best Way, To Find Out What Happened Today

If you own an android tablet you might be like me and have tried to find the best way to get your daily news.  Well for me there's traditional way which is using apps like CNN, Times, Magazines etc. or you go about the traditional way which is using readers.  If you don't know what a reader is it lets you subscribe to websites, blogs, news sites, podcast etc and its all right there on one app.

Google Currents has brought this type of reader and turn it into a really simple, user friendly and useful looking app.  So go read something and remember to add certain websites like the one above you to your reader.

True Gaming Has Finally Arrived

Now if since the arrival of big app markets people have been playing games on smartphones and continued to on tablets.  App games have now started a trend of even outselling some games on gaming consoles.  Since these games inception though their has been some what of a division among gamers.  There have been those called themselves "true gamers" that see these Android games as too simple and is what's wrong with gaming today.  They feel these games are a waist of time.  On the other side of the coin, there are people that have never been into console gaming that love these games that anyone can play, and others that feel they have a new opportunity to play great games that kill time in a fun way.  Well now finally there is an answer to satisfy both sides.

A company called OnLive has released True Gaming to the Mobile World.  They have done this by bringing games that have been previously on been on the PC or Gaming Consoles to arrive on Smartphones and Tablets.  How did they do this might you ask?  By using the same type of technology that's quickly becoming the future, cloud based technology.  See while we wait for new graphic processors like the Tegra 3 and beyond to come out, our tablets do not have the resources to master graphics like the consoles and computers do.  So what OnLive did was find a way for the players to select a game, play it from OnLive's servers and then bring it to your device without delays.  It's truly an amazing achievement.  It makes its so that you can play a game as great as Batman Arkham City that was just released this year for the top Consoles and PC, and bringing that kind of quality and fluidity to you smartphones and tablets.

The company has ways you can buy games, rent them for a couple of days, or even stream them (sort of speak) for a monthly payment.  So you have lots of different options.  Plus it's one purchase to use one game for all of your devices. The other big deal that they bring to the table has to be their gaming controller that can be used for you computers, most smartphones and tablets (they promise to keep updating the newest ones as time go by) and even connect it to your tv (with an adapter of course).  This brings a true gaming experience that you can have anywhere that has internet (which if you have a broadband card is everywhere).  So go play and have some fun, gamers will be gamers even if that's the reason we don't get some.

***New Android App*** Where's My Water?

Did you love Angry Birds?  Did you find yourself falling in love with the little guy from Cut The Rope?  Have you been thinking dang it I need a new game to play that I can spend countless hours on?

Well look no further.  There's a new game right up your alley called Where's My Water.  This game is made by Disney, (I know right) and the concept is very simple like most of these games we are ashamed we love.  This Alligator was trying to take a bath, and wouldn't you know it, his water line got broken. Now it's your job to get the water to him while of course getting three rubber duckies before getting to his shower.  If you don't get it to him the Alligator cries.  So please go and give that Alligator the best shower he's ever had.

This game does cost $0.99 and is compatible with most devices.
