What? Do you have the Verizon version? It doesn't work on mine!
I've heard great things about Ski Safari. I got it my self and will try it out later.

I have the R800a from Rogers. Drop by the Xperia Play xda forums, those guys might be able to help you. I wish I could link you to the Rayman thread, but I'm posting on the phone. :-(
I have it on my S3 so it's not really a problem, but it would be cool to have it on my Xperia Play, too. I'll check it out, though.
Edit: I think my phone might not have the current firmware on it. It's still on 2.3.2. I just tried to update it, but since I'm not actually using it as my phone (thus not connected to Verizon), it doesn't seem to be working. For some reason, for it to check for updates, it has to turn off WiFi. The problem is, I only use it with Wifi! It makes no sense.
Cogs is a very polished and fun puzzler. Its been out for a while on PC, so you can try a demo first to see if its your kind of thing.

I read before the AT&T one has more memory than the Verizon one? Maybe that is why it doesn't work on yours.
I could be way off though, hehe.

That sucks, I was almost positive I was going to get the next Nexus phone and most likely the inevitable Nexus 9/10 tablet.

whatsinaname in the other thread recommended BlueStacks software. Apparently, it shows up on Google Play as a Samsung Galaxy S II after you sign in with it.

What is the difference with Air Control and Air Control HD. Finding info on games on Android is kind of difficult. I guess HD if I'm using a tablet?
My a100 (Tegra 2) says I can get it.

Picked up the Batman, Great Big War Game, and Horn... didn't have room to install both Horn and Batman (I had to begrudgingly uninstall max payne). Im gonna play through Horn first.. looks good from the first few moments I played to test it, lookin forward to playing it more when i have time
I don't think it's available for non-Tegra devices. It's not showing up on my Galaxy SII (isn't the SII meant to be slightly better than Tegra 2 based systems?)

is Batman a good game?
how the controls?
how the controls?
I bought 'Broken Sword: Director's Cut' for 25p. It also helps that I've never played the original.
This is only a minor gripe really, but I find the hint icon on the top right of the screen quite irritating. I tried it out at the start of the game just to see exactly how helpful it is. You get 3 hints: click it once and it gives you just a small hint, click it again and you get a better hint, click it a third time and it basically tells you what to do.
It just irritates me that if I get stuck I will have the hint icon always there staring me in the face (lol). Always there to tempt me. Hopefully I won't give in to the temptation. I don't think the original game had hints. I'm not entirely sure, but I doubt it. There seems to be a trend now where every puzzle must have hints. Gamers are not allowed to get stuck anymore. It's a point-and-click adventure game though. The puzzle element is pretty much the only gameplay element in the game. If you were to use the hints then it's not really a game anymore.
Also, there is a clear difference between the original game sections and the added sections. Most noticeably the audio. The added parts have much better quality audio. The visuals are of slightly better quality, and I think the UI works a little differently.
Having said all that, I am really enjoying it so far.

Anyone else notice that Google Play will not allow certain devices to buy certain games but if Amazon has it you can buy it through them? Both offer Jungle Run version 1.1.8 but Google is telling my device to go pound sand.
Any-who this sale is what I was really waiting for. I just starting to play Mini Motor and this game is so fun. It play just like Super Off-road on the NES and it even looks great. Picked up so much thanks to this sale but I'm really going to have to pick up a larger SD card for games. Played a little bit of Horn and it seem like a decent game. Run good on my Tegra 2.

No it does not. Currently it only works on Tegra devices. They are working on support for Samsung phones though so if you have one I would recommend buying that now and waiting until they patch it.
maybe it is amazon selling you anything with no quality control ?

Batman is a fairly impressive game, for a Gameloft clone. It's clearly their take on Arkham City/Asylum - and it's good enough (for .25 at least). Visually cool, and it controls fairly well. The combat is dumb, but you feel like Batman. And in the end, that's all we really want anyways.
The cinematic elements are laughably bad though. Obviously none of the film cast offers vocal talent, resulting in some of the worst Morgan Freeman impressions this side of an open-mic stand-up comedy night.

Any decent adventure games out there that tell a good story but are light on the gameplay elements? My girlfriend and I usually play something like that in bed at night (Phoenix Wright is our game of choice at the moment and we love it!) so would love something similar
Android-exclusive would be a nice bonus!
Something I can't get on my iPad. Thank you

Something I can't get on my iPad. Thank youThe Play Store doesn't let you buy a game unless it's already compatible with one of your devices. Which sucks, because that means by the time the game officially supports the S3 I'll have to buy it at full price.

Is Air Control actually worth paying for? I mean, I've enjoyed the free version, but does the payed version add anything significant except a few more maps?
But don't we want to encourage Zynga to actually put some effort into games? Horn seems pretty well put together.
