[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffervesce:
Hey Everybody,

I've been trying to find any/all decent games and apps for my transformer and I'm curious if anyone has any interesting input. I'll go over what I'm looking for and my opinions on apps that I already know about, and I'd be interested in reading anybody else doing the same. :)

For games.. I never played any games on my android phone, wasn't really interested. I've checked out a few on my tablet though:

- Pocket Legends MMO: I'd definitely say this game is better for a tablet than it would be for a mobile. I've already uninstalled as I'm not interested in an mmo for my tablet, but it does run well and there seems to be a fair amount of people playing.

- Armored strike: This game plays like worms/scorched earth but it isn't fantastic in my opinion. It does represent one type of game that I'd be interested in getting though. I notice worms is available on the market, when I search the market on my desktop.. Didnt see it on the market when I searched from my tablet. Haven't tried that yet, its a paid game, and only 3 stars released in april 2011. This type of game, with online play, is something I would like to see.

- Shadow era: This is a CCG like magic the gathering. I installed it on my phone but wouldn't play it on that screen size. Doesn't seem to run on the tablet unfortunately. A CCG like magic the gathering is another game I would like to see on my tablet.

- Galaxy on fire 2: I saw a video of a xoom tablet running this game at a CES-like event, but the market says it will only run on xperia. Shame, it looked like it'd be worth a try. Games using the accelerometer for steering are neat, but that cant be all there is to the game for it to be worth getting.

- Angry Birds: Lets get this game out of the way, despite its popularity I have little to no interest. It's hardly revolutionary. Games like worms/armored strike/scorched earth are better. In birds you modify trajectory but not firing power. Its too simplistic/boring.

Thats enough for games. I'd be particularily interested in anything which gives options for keyboard controls, but I don't suspect there's much of that out yet.

Some app opinions:

- Google Earth: I wish this was good, but there's no added functionality that you don't get from google maps. In fact, in google maps, you can add your google account's mymaps as a layer, in google earth you cannot. (Let alone edit your account's mymaps) There used to be an app called google mymaps editor, but google took it off the market. I use google earth a lot for work, and having some means of saving waypoints and building paths in between waypoints is something I would really like to see on my tablet. I work for a wireless ISP and we mark wireless base stations, paths in between, and paths to customer sites etc using google earth on desktop.

- Thinking space: This is a mind mapping app for android which you can use to create/modify/view freemind mind maps on your android device. It's probably the app that has seen the most benefit from a tablet sized screen size that I can think of. Definitely worth getting for anybody thats interested in making mind maps for any purpose, it's more powerful than freemind on desktop, particularily on a transformer with keyboard.

- Pocket cloud: Remote desktop apps in general should see improved usabilty on tablets, but this is the one that I own personally.

This is all I've got worth mentioning. Pretty sparse, but hey thats why I'm asking around right? Any/all input quite welcome. :)
