GTAIII works great but try not to let it sleep while it downloads the extra files because it has a tendency to FC during that phase for some reason. Apart from that it runs super smooth. Only wish I could change the radio stations in the cars though.

What are the best games on here? Games that I can pick up and play for a minute or 2 and now have to be too involved?

I was thinking the exact same thing. It's been over a month since it's "release date" and all I've heard is that they've needed all this time to get it on more devices.

I just hope it doesn't take up all my device space like most Asphalt games.

Anyone here have heroes call from tegra zone? It's a nice game but doesn't seem to play well with titanium. When trying to restore after flashing a new Rom, it hangs at "loading data." I always have to delete it and reinstall which of course means I lose my saves. I don't have this issue with other games (tegra and non terra). Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SithDagger:
Yes! At last! *Jafar laugh*

For the record, working great on my nexus7 with stock 4.1.1, and stock kernal. :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] E_man5112:
I haven't had this issue. How long does it hang? Have you tried restoring it by itself? You might also try backing it up and restoring the data manually with root explorer at /data/data/com.DefiantDev.heroscall.THD I think it was.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] nickmv:
Yep, just installed and played a few rounds of MC3. Don't know what that guy was talking about.

I copied the file located in /data on my sd card and pasted it on root of sd. I'm gonna try to reload the game from scratch then copy over the file. See if that works. Hopefully that's where my saves are. This method worked for max Payne and mc3 so we'll see.

Anyone have problems with ME Infiltrator?

I just bought the game cause people said works for their nexus 7, but while im downloading the file about midway, it force closes and then reboots and says 900mb are needed not enough space?

In the initial download, it says 348mb being downloaded, before force closing, then comes back with 900mb. I start out with 1.09GB's, but after it force closes it shows 698mb, and then I reopen ME Infiltrator and shows that 900mb are needed..not enough space.

How much space does it actually take...?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] R3dbeaver:
just FYI, i'm really really enjoying Heroes Call THD. its poor-man's Diablo but it looks great!

Galaxy on Fire 2 is kinda sucky but the voice and graphic is great. control and story is lame though lol.... but hey, its like a poor-man's Freespace!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] alan77ss:
Use a file browser to open up the titanium backup files and unzip the apk from there (es file explorer app allows you to unzip compressed folders). You can restore league/cup data by copying over the save folder from android/data/fifa12 on your galaxy tab/backup once you've installed the game.

So I just bought Max Payne Mobile, the download was pretty hefty - seeing as I have the 8gb model, is there any way that I could move the game files to my 32gb USB stick? I have an OTG cable, so i'd be happy (more or less haha) to plug the stick in every time I wanted to play.

Gotta say, both ShadowGun and Dead Trigger are amazing!!! I only have over 2GB free now :P But that should last me. I also downloaded Hero's Call, is it any good?

Fun fact. I have $.03 cents left on my Play Credit. Haha! What are some other games that are amazing on the N7?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] R3dbeaver:
if u like Diablo3, then Hero's Call will suck all the free time u have to play games. dont worry about other games lol

try Samurai2: Vengeance, from the guys who made Shadowgun. thats pretty good.

wind-up knight has cool graphic. sprinkle and Riptide GP will showcase water functions. Radiant Defense and Jelly Defense has awesome art-style for tower defense games. and Strike Fleet Omega is cool too.

but if twitching is ur thing, try Pew Pew ;)

Mixed feelings there. It is a fun game, but the way the devs publicly came out and said they wouldn't ever update the app after hardly supporting it at all to begin with, left a bad impression. Didn't help that I emailed them before they said that, and they basically told me that they didn't feel that the android version needed feature parity with the iOS version. Not sure I want to buy an android game from developers that abandoned the platform after half-heartedly joining it. Good game, iffy devs.

Has anyone had any issues with getting DoomGLES to install data for your own wads? I have an original Ultimate Doom CD that I pulled the wad from, popped it into the Kokak/DoomGLES folder and started the game. It gets to "Downloading data" and just crashes back to the homescreen. My Nexus is bone stock, just rooted and unlocked, with 4.1.1 (JRO03D).
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] h3r3tic:
I have doom gles working just perfect. I used the wads from a windows doom and doom2 copy and haven't had an issue yet. Although now that I think about it I had doom data downloaded on my a100 and just transferred over micro sd with my otg so i didn't have to wait for a download. This is on EOS rom also worked on stock.

I just wanted to add because I'm sure not everyone has a stand. So personally I use the DVD case stand with a pipecleaner instead of a string to adjust viewing angles and it couldn't fit more perfect. http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/3-easy-ways-tablet-stand/

The Kokak website is down, so unless you have the data downloaded elsewhere, it won't work right now. I can't find mirrors because I just installed it myself and I have been looking... The simple WAD installs don't work, technically I don't know why, so when the original WAD is there it downloads modified data to make it work from the Kokak website, but you can't even access it from a browser right now.

Amazing Alex HD is finally avail on Jelly Bean Nexus 7.

Cost me AUD 2.92. LOL

also, it is rotated in the wrong orientation, my casing is made that when landscape & propped up, the camera is on the right hand side.

however Amazing Alex is upside down, hence u have to paly it with camera on the LHS.

anyone has the orientation issue?

EDIT:

I know Osmos HD starts upside down, but detects it is the "wrong way up" and changes the orientation.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] frenetic:
16GB is almost enough, honestly... I have the 8GB and had to move the data for games I didn't play as often, all my music and movies are cloud based, so it's all game data. and app installs. I have 533MB free right now, and don't even have MC3 data on there right now.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 PM ----------

Standard landscape orientation mode has the camera on the left side. It's been that way for a long time, looking at phones with slide out keyboards and such, they all come out the left side of portrait, so that side is down in landscape. Apps should function 270 degrees, obviously, so there's a problem that should be addressed by the dev. What rom are you using, btw? I have never seen that problem myself.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] samlingx:
Thanks so much. As I briefly mentioned before, I have the data downloaded on my One X, but I've tried three times now to copy the data to my Nexus and it just results in the game launching to nothing but a black screen with the controls on it. I also tried taking my TB data from my HOX and restoring the app that way rather than installing from the Play store, but that didn't work either. I think I'll just wait it out and hope the Kokak site comes back online soon. :)

I'm really enjoying Heroes Call THD that was recommended.

Pretty slick and fun game to venture out and loot some dungeons. It does seem finicky though. Whenever the screen turns off, it crashes. There isn't a save feature while in a dungeon and thus you lose whatever you've looted up to that point. I just played a level where I found 3 Legendary Items and a Rare item or two. Then I got a call and had to put it down, come back and it locked up. I had to close and restart it... second play through I only found like 1 rare item which turned out to be a dud.

Kinda mad. But sweet game. Makes you keep going back for more. It's what I thought Dungeon Hunter 3 was gonna be like. There aren't "waves". You just go and raid the place. Lots of loot too.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] pxlitup:
I liked Hero's Call, and thanks to whoever compared it to Diablo for the rec, but there's an update on the horizon that's been stopping me from playing it.

In other words, soon the only way to unlock character classes will be spending real money.

Something to be aware of before you spend any time grinding gems.
