Riptide GP has really jaw dropping graphics, and feels like an Xbox Live arcade game! I'm really impressed with the overall quality, and the game is pretty fun too! By far the best graphics on Android game so far.

How is the gameplay and replay value? It sure looks awesome, but $8 is a lot more than most games. Still, I'm definitely tempted.

Gameplay is great, and with 3 difficulty levels and openfeint achievements there's a good amount of replay value. Super fun, glad I bought it.
yes this game is amazing
jeez thats a lot of money for a phone game, v tempting, thanks for link
Wow I got it, absolutely worth it. It's fun, looks amazing, and has good sound/music too. Plus buying it sends a message to developers that we want quality games and will pay, so do it!

I like Pinball HD for Tegra. It's half the price and pretty awesome graphics and gameplay.
Glad you guys are enjoying!
I have Pinball HD and it's pretty awesome too. But Riptide looks like it was ripped off from PSN or Xbox Live, and it has better graphics than many games sold on those services for $10-15.
$8 is really a bargain considering the overall quality of the game - technically the best graphics on the Android platform so far with great gameplay.
My First Trainz Set has amazing graphics. Not good game play though. I'm waiting for that train simulator to come out, that'l be really nice looking.
Waiting for GoF2.

ACtually, I agree. I downloaded it and it's truly amazing. Pinball is also great ,but the speed of the graphics in Riptide is what blows me away.
Amazing game !!!
Thanks .

Yeah sweet game. Although after a while I start to find it annoying to have to rotate the phone to turn.

Pretty much too much turn required or I just suck at the game. Need for speed shift (part of the telstra sbf) works well for steering, almost too easy.
Cheers!
The graphics were so good it was quite shocking. Finally a reason to get a Tegra 2 phone.
Thread cleanup. Back on topic please, Thanks
It takes some getting used to with the turning the phone to turn. Not sure how I feel about that type of gameplay. Although despite that I enjoyed the game and it looked beautiful. Thank you for showing us this find
has anyone try Contract Killer from Glu Game ????? i get so addicted to this game. graphic is stunning and the story line is interesting too. you can train to level up, buy more advanced guns to kill faster great game. find it at market.
sweet i think i might have to buy it!
Another great game for Tegra 2 is Samurai Vengeance. Great story line, AMAZING graphics and HOURS of gameplay!
Thanks for the post about this new game...gunna go try it. =)
I saw this game featured in the nVidia Tegrazone application and thought it looked promising. Now I see its finally out and getting trashed in its market reviews. Anyone here give it a shot yet?
Also if anyone has some game recommends I'd appreciate it. I'm a long time PC gamer and I've found the contemporary "casual gaming" trend abhorrent compared to the quality and depth I'm used to. While still fairly poor at least the iPhone had some legit games. Anything worth playing on my Atrix?

RipTide is a very good game. Fun factor is great and graphics are amazing and smooth. Galaxy on Fire 2 is expensive after the initial free part but its very fun. The game offers 6-9 hours of gameplay and building up your ship gets addictive. Check out gamelofts website, its got some good games that you woudl be used to from your iphone.
There have been a few experiments with DS emulators in the past - but the verdict usually ended up with terrible framerates.
Now that we have a quadcore device that has a sizeable increase in performance over other devices - the question of true performance stands...
"...but can it play pokemon?"
This would be one of the easiest things to do. But its a matter of if anyone wants it. I had DS emulator for Ipad. It was OK. There are no great games really only it. Pokemon is for little kids..lol. by the way though, I think Digimon characters would destroy Pokemon ones..lmfao its really a matter of if someone wants to use their time tl make one. With all the other great emulators out there, no real demand for DS emulator. You the first I ever heard ask for one.
What I want to see is a Turbo Gratix 16 or PC engine emulator or a 3DO one.

Disagree, there's literally tons of great games on DS, it's been the best hand-held gaming platform I had so far, there's a huge variety of games, not only pokemon
Take a look at Advance Wars 1 and 2, The World Ends With You (this game is a Masterpiece), Dragon Quest IX, Final Fantasy Tactics 2, Scribblenauts, All the Castlevania-RPGs etc ... I'll stop here, but there's a lot more! All of these are no Casual games too!
Anyway concerning the emulator, I think Nintendo sold so many DS that people just play on DS instead of emulators for tablets, but it's just my opinion
I find it funny to hear someone say Pokemon is for kids, and then reference Digimon.
There are tons of great games on the DS system, especially JRPGs.
Found this in development & hacking.

Lmfao. You got me. Both are. But if one were to be better than another in battle I'd go with the latter.
To op; those are some good games you mentioned. Advanced wars n dragon quest. Been so long since playing a DS. Or at least the original one. I moved on from Nintendo, as IMO, more kiddie oriented games. I had moved on to PSP. I even had an Atari Lynx back in the day and a TurboExpress still have my Sega master system from over 20yrs. Ago.
D.S was a major advancement in evolution of mobile gaming compared to gameboy. I still think gameboy holds all time best selling portable device.

I have a PSP too, and there's some great games on it too ... just not as much as on DS IMO ...
You're right about Nintendo being more casual and kid oriented, the exception being the Nintendo DS, there's so much RPGs on this machine and original concepts ... sure there's tons of kid games, but there's just as much "real games" trust me

I believe it. I love RPG. Been playing since those Dragon warrior n Ultimate Quest of the Avatar on NES. Looking forward to trying out DS emulator once one is made for Prime.
I really want a Dreamcast and Saturn Emulator. Loved playing power stones n Phantasy Star. Those had alot of great RPG also. PC engine/Turbo gratis 16 had some great RPG also.
The problem right now is no so much the lack of hardware that could handle it, it's been the compatability of the emulator with the games. Some games will just never work properly on an emulator no matter what the processing power.

I'm pretty sure it's only little kids who say Pokemon is only for little kids. All of my friends who are 20+ love Pokemon as it is a great game and is excellently made. All of Nintendo's games are made with the utmost quality and are jam packed full of fun.
That said, I would love to see a DS emulator for android. I've been hoping for one recently as I want to play Pokemon Black or White but I don't want to have to carry my DS around with me. Having only one thing to carry would be awesome.
If we were able to run a full fledged DS emulator on our Prime that would blow all the games iOS + Android combined.
i've had every model of the DS minus the latest 3-Disaster but i honestly wouldn't do much with a DS emulator. i'd probably have more fun with a GBA emulator.

Lol, it was a disaster for Nintendo maybe, but I was more than happy to trade in my old DSlite and get a brand new hand-held with tons of added features for $100 That being said, I use it the same amount which is not at all and I don't think I could put an emulator through any more use.
I do have GBC/GBA/NES/SNES/N64 emulators on my phone/Prime and love being able to break out the classics, but the newer Nintendo and its 1st party developers get the less they jive with me as a consumer and fan. A DS/3DS emulator would be for bragging rights more than anything.
What I do want to see is PS2 emulation though! I would kill for that.
There's an issue making emulators for current hardware though, and that's the fact that most dev's don't like entering legal battles with giant corporations. Emulating game ROMs for current hardware isn't looked at any different than pirated games on the original hardware I don't think.

Not going to happen, however you could check Paul's forums.
He claims that he will work on a NDS emulator next year.
And another 6 months for a 10 fps running stable release.

What I can't understand is why madfinger seem to think that instead of adding some really cool extra features, instead they just put a pool of water rippling and a stupid water effect on the camera. They did the same thing on shadowgun saying "oh cool look at this!" Well we did, can we have actual better overall textures, normal maps, mip maps, bump maps, and every type of map, bloom, particle effects and everything that the tegra3 was supposed to bring with it. Thanks.
/RANT
P.S. I know that all of these effects are included.
Awesome looking game. Just really wish this zombie fad would wear off soon, so over done its not funny.

stopped reading.
Looks real good ... but for me, no multiplayer, no buy. I feel a bit burned from Shadowgun.

I agree but honestly, this is the Zombie game we've been waiting for. Everything else has been subpar up till now. The Zombie genre should die after this game; end with a bang!

Well just because it wasn't stated now doesn't mean there wont be a multiplayer. After all, Shadowgun didn't have multiplayer capabilities but Madfinger is planning to add it. I am sure we'll get multiplayer a bit later. I just hope they don't charge.
Unless there's been a more recent update that I'm note aware of, Madfinger does plan on releasing a free multiplayer game of Shadowgun later this year.
*cough*
*cough*
I'm sorry, I meant a freemium multiplayer game. -_- Ugh, I hate that bull****.
I can't wait to play this game!!

Could not have said it better myself! A must have!
So, yeah, a blessing and a curse. Just spent $7 on wild blood and kinda regret it, lol. Cool game, just not really worth it. Also not optimized for tegra devices. Only uses one core...
At least they are "compatible" now. No having to edit build.prop and break google wallet anymore.

Yet none of the apps I bought a few months ago are compatible..... Oh well
They added more titles today, oddly they don't all show up under their gameloft titles banner, you have to search for gameloft to pull more games
I really hate gameloft customer service and how badly the games run and are poorly optimized. What device are they programming for? The ruskie 1953?
Geez man, makes me so mad they have decent games but the company is so horrible.
I heard they prototype all games on Sun Solaris and then port to android
