im reserving this post for later reviews..

[pezz]

Sigh... Why are you cover android gaming with just your phone. You phone doesnt define android gaming.

Htc android .... would have been better.

EDit: Watching the video now

[vylle]

i reviewed the video and i will make some fixes later on. probably should script it and download some video editing tools.. but really i didnt plan 2 go deep into video editing - just wanted to give u guys a clue of which games are currently out and how well the HD2 can play them

later on i will have a better phone but its a good start to review with a 1ghz processor phone

[pezz]

Where did you get that n64 emulator?

[vylle]

Get applanet. With that u can get any app

Seeing as I am an up coming developer I dont really want to go that route. Is it on the android market?

Nice vid @vylle .... CM 7 looks good on the HD2 ...

[vylle]

thanks - i put alot of sleepless nights (well.. just 1) into optimizing the phone so that it puts out as fast and look good as it does.. i cant wait for pongster (the rom dev) to come out with his latest release which is supposed to allow for better theming capabilities and faster movement in games.

guys - u should all try out Launcherpro 8.4 - it has a new widget (gmail - thank god) and transitions

slowly but surely, launcherpro is becoming the worlds best home launcher IMO

everything looks good on the hd2 lol

[vylle]

everything looks good on the hd2 lol

true lol - even windows 6.5 did look good 2 - jus got rid of it cuz i prefered android :P

well, i suppose cupcake or donut wouldnt look good - but those arent made for the HD2 anwyay so blah

Have you tried launcher 7?

[LeBoss]

Have you tried launcher 7?

@pezz Thats one app I want to try .... @vylle I normally uses ADW Laucher .....

[vylle]

i've tried launcher 7 - dont care for it that much.. adw launcher is ok but it consumes WAY to much resourses and FC's alot more than launcher pro. besides, launcher pro is more sense like

Sp which launcher is the best to use?

[vylle]

IMO - i'd say launcher pro - it is the most sense like launcher available (i love sense) - has almost all of their most useful widgets(like mail, contacts, facebook, calendar and so on) but allows for resizable widgets and consumes far less on disk space than sense. It offers about the same ammount of usability and features as ADW-EX but has a 3D app drawer and more transitional effects while experiencing far less FC's and doesnt move as sluggish. it also has tonnes of skins available for dock bars and icons. id suggest everyone try out the pro version.. my favorite launcher :)

a good number of people here use it- im sure they'd have more to contribute

ANYWAY BACK ON TOPIC

i've been looking up daily for the latest games and it seems now that nova2 is coming out to android.. hopefully if i can get a customized* version i'd like to review it

also - crazy snowboarding is 1 addictive game - thanks technoboy.. really cool game! i hope everyone who has tried guerrilla bob likes it as much as i do

[pezz]

Guerrilla bob is nice. :D
I am gonna have to do another video.

[vylle]

well if your gunna do another- you'd have alot of stuff to cover. alot of them being gameloft games and some of the other games. i'd try making another video but right now the SGS is on lockdown.. might have some potential customers down the road but that will have to wait.

i downloaded some NEW games - well one is new 2 me but others are new to android

1 - Air Attack HD (WWII flight arcade)
2 - X-Formula (futuristic racing)
3 - Galaxy on Fire (Space Flight Shooter)
4 - N.O.V.A 2
5 - Bruce Lee Dragon Warrior (3D fighting)
6 - No Gravity (Space Flight shooter)
7 - NDS Emulator

I will have to make a new video about these games but the HD2 plays all flawlessly! im quite surprised that its so smooth!

[pezz]

Nice comments you have for that video :D

[vylle]

More games to add to the list - Star Battalion HD from gameloft - another star fighter game

i wonder - which is better? star battalion, No gravity or galaxy on fire.. hmm

additionally, a NDS4droid which was just recently completed.. i think i'll finally get to play pokemon diamond and pearl now (i say this with no shame :P)
