Android Games Catch-All

On Live has come to select Android phones. So far, with just my phone Batman: Arkham City was unplayable, but I reeaallly enjoyed the Bastion Trial (Demo). Check and see if you have the opportunity to play great games on the go.

You get Lego Batman for free as well !

I had to go find the APK on XDA since you cant get it if you are not in the US.

I just tried lego Batman for about 5 minutes and on my Samsung Galaxy S2 it is definatley playable.

I can't wait to try it on my Iconia Tablet. This is a real game changer, no pun intended!

Day 3 of Android Apps at .10c

Hm Tetris for $.10... but then I read some comments. Apparently EA is screwing around with removing games from the market, or when they change the price it somehow becomes a different app and you can't redownload it? Seeing a lot of angry reviews.

Yeah, it was enough to make me pass on it even at $0.10. Kind of sad really.

There's a free ad supported Tetris I've had for a long time. Not sure if the gameplay is different, but as little as I've actually played that one, I decided that I didn't even need the full version for the pittance they are asking.

Today's list is up, including Game Dev Story and Sentinel 3: Homeworld.

This sale is nuts, ya'll...

ya, i'm passing on today's list. nothing interesting to me but have fun!
I grabbed a few yesterday though. sweet deals.

I grabbed the ADW Launcher desktop replacement yesterday and it's pretty nice. I'm still balancing the options for coolness vs. speed and setting things up. Lots of stuff to mess with.

BTW, does anyone have any suggestions for multiplayer games I can play with my wife? We're both really enjoying Words with Friends, of course.

So I've seen a lot of praise for Game Dev Story around here... I suppose it's worth 10 cents right?

And yeah apparently I had NFS:Shift from that one sale, but don't anymore? I mean it says purchased. But then it says incompatible with my device. And it says that it's not longer available on my carrier (Verizon). So... can I have my dollar back EA?

I want Grand Prix Story before the end of this. Hope the fact that Game Dev is there today doesn't mean we won't get Grand Prix on sale.

Bought Game Dev Story and think I'll probably buy Spirit HD and maybe Sentinel 3: Homeworld.

I buy tower defense games on my phone and don't ever play them, though. Not sure why.

Yeah? I find them a lot easier to pick up and play on my phone than I do on my PC. I guess I have bigger and better games to play on PC than TD games

I buy them on PC and play them really heavily for a couple of days before dropping them there, too. It's not that I don't like them, it's that I don't like them enough to go to them when I want to play something vs other types of games.

Game Dev Story is worth way more than 10 cents.

Anybody having any checkout problems right now with the Market? I haven't been able to buy anything today, while yesterday was fine.

ditto big time. It seems to be Google Wallet related, I also tried to buy the Chrome version of Bastion and couldn't do that either. Then I went to my Google Wallet page and it I got more errors.

Game Dev Story is wonderful.

OK, just finally bought Game Dev Story. But I put another card on my Wallet account to see if all the $.10 transactions had caused my main card to be frozen. Not sure if it was that or just Wallet being hosed.

My wallet just got fixed and everything is working now.

Any thoughts on Spirit HD? I'm inclined to try it for this price.

at $0.10, I've been buying stuff even if its remotely interesting and that I *might* want it at some point. I'm surprised my credit card company hasn't barfed on me with all the transactions (probably 6-7 on each day of the promotion so far).

OK, I've been enabled.
Just got Game Dev and actually that Spirit HD looked interesting so I grabbed it.

Bah, the sentinel server is too slammed to download the additoinal info (19 MB) that the game needs to run. So much for playing that on the train today.

Nice sale so far. Must admit, lots of good apps known on the IOS made the jump to Android as well. Glad to see that!

Haha! Same here. I'll look over the list and think "nah, I don't need that." Then I'll look at the little bowl near my desk completely filled with 10 yen coins and click the "purchase" button. Did play a bit of Spirit, though, and quite liked it. Also the ADW Launcher is pretty slick.

I just wonder with ICS how much I'll really want a replacement launcher. I bought Launcher Pro a long time ago, but wonder if I'll use that when I put a ICS ROM on my phone?

I was having issues getting ADW Launcher EX. Wouldn't let me buy it, because of the Google Wallet issue...but, I could still buy other things with that card. I think the ADW folks are based in Australia though, so perhaps something got flagged?

Either way, today's list is up. Includes Drop7, Age of Zombies, SlideIT Keyboard, and more. Drop7 is pretty awesome. Can't speak to the others, but I'll be picking up a few.

Also, Chicken Coup Remix HD is the free app today on Amazon. There's a free, ad-supported version on Android that I've checked out, but [I think it'll be better on the HP Touchpad I plan on getting tomorrow...

Today's 10, SimCity, Jenga, Backbreaker Football, etc.

Don't recognize as many of today's. Already have Jenga from Amazon.

And started playing Game Dev Story last night... not sure I need any other games for a while. That thing is crazy good.

Dev Story is a huge time sink! Beware
