[Q] hoping to upgrade to a fullsized tablet soon.. - Nexus 10 General

I own a galaxy s3 and i recently sold my nexus 7. I primarily used my nexus 7 for games and comics and when i had some unexpected financial crap pop up the tablet was the first thing to go. I kinda wish i didnt sell it. Now ive gotten to looking around for different tablets and found the nexus 10 to be a sexy device, looks and feeling wise, but ive read that it has a ridiculous resolution that has very few optimized apps for it. i wondering if any of you might have any of the games ive collected off humble bundle on your nexus 10s and how well they work.
anomaly korea
avadon the black fortress
beat hazard ultra
bladeslinger
canabalt
cogs
contre jour
crayon physics deluxe
dungeon defenders
dynamite jack
eufloria
machinarium
metal slug 3
nightsky
plants vs zombies
solar 2
splice
super hexagon
sword and sworcery
swords and soldiers
the room
waking mars
zen bound 2

The only one I've had problems with it Machinarium, it had a very very bad framerate when I tried it on my n10. No problem with any other though.

i cant honestly say ive played or will play all of these games but im most concerned with machinarium, sword&sworcery, waking mars, and plants vs zombies.

One thing to remember is the Nexus 10 is primarily a media consumption device. Whereas the Nexus 7 is a gaming tablet. The Nexus 7 plays games for better then the Nexus 10 does.

hmm..i really dont have any graphic intensive games i plan on playing though. it couldve just been my internet service but i felt like my nexus 7 was slow on the internet browsing department. is there a real difference between the internet speeds between the 7 and the 10?
back to the gaming department.. the stuff i play the most are machinarium, sword n sworcery, plants vs zombies, organ trail, rayman, simpsons tapped out, jet pack joyride, league of evil, world of goo, and the GTAs

The I/O speed is terrible on the Nexus 7, and and I personally think the Tegra chips such for anything but gaming. I have a Nexus 7 as well and there is a big browsing difference

Which version? 2? 2HD? What model did you download it for?
please answer!
Man these forums are dead =\
I've tried most of Gameloft's portfolio, and I've experimented with versions for many different devices. Unfortunately, even if they do run, they don't seem to run correctly. I've been using the HD versions, and they all run in a very small area in the middle of the screen. It seems that Gameloft has a bit of work to do on the optimization front. They just got around to optimizing most of their catalog for the Galaxy Tab 7, and they are starting to optimize some games for the Xoom, so we should be seeing some of their more popular games within a few weeks. If you're looking for high quality games, you should download the Tegra zone app and check out the games in there. I can say from experience that Riptide GP, Gun Brothers, and Galaxy on Fire 2 are amazing.
Gameloft's Asphalt 6 HD works fine too
No issues with the game on GT10.1
-Asphalt 6 is good. Theres quite a few cars, it's not really much different than Asphalt 5 though.
-N.O.V.A. HD kinda worked. It FC'd too much to play though and the controls were badly messed up.
-Modern Combat 2 boots up through the video at the beginning, but crashes instantly after.
-Spider Man also FC's alot like N.O.V.A. If it didn't FC as much as it does it would be alright.
I'll update this list as I try more, but so far it is just a ton of failure except for Asphalt 6. The graphics were fine.

I agree with your suggestions, but I don't know if Riptide is worth the money. It only has like 4 tracks and then it does all of the tracks in reverse and they all look the same.

Yeah, that's true, $7.00 for 6 tracks is a bit overpriced. The graphics are nice, if not a bit boring, but the other games are quite awesome. I also like Cordy, Apparatus, and I'm really looking forward to a few of the upcoming games in the tegra zone. Arma II looks awesome, Trainz Simulator (if reasonably priced) might be fun, and I'm just waiting for Monster Madness to launch.

Gaming Performance on the DNA

Hi,
I am wondering how well the Droid DNA plays games because I want to buy a new phone and in particular want to play games like NOVA 3, Modern Combat 4, Dead Trigger, Need for Speed, Asphalt 7, Wild Blood etc. But especially NOVA 3 as that seems to be the most demanding game on the market right now. Do these game lag badly or are they playable?
Thank you in advance!

umm sorry for the language but the gaming on the dna is tits! better than any tablet ive owned (and i have a nexus 10 and the transformer infinity. both very powerful)
if gaming is your biggest factor i certainly reccomend the note 2, note, dna, or s3. i own all and they are great

Real Racing 3: Nexus 10 vs iPad 3 video focus

Hi all,
Real Racing 3 it's a racing game just released by EA with gorgeous graphics for a mobile device platform.
If you want to know how does the Nexus 10 performs running this game with its beautiful 2560x1600 10 inches display, just give a look at this video:
http://youtu.be/8gy7XA0ZsAU
I made even a quick comparison with an iPad 3.
Ciaoooooooooo
Would be nice to see if the N10 can win against the iPad 4 though.

Mmmhh...if Real Racing 3 it's already a little bit better on the iPad 3 than on the Nexus 10, how can it wins against the iPad 4?!?!
I do really hope EA will release an update to catch up with the effects missing on the Nexus 10. :/

The iPad doesn't exactly "win" the iPad 3 runs graphic intensive games at a much lower resolution, for example, NFSMW has a lot more effects on the iPad 3 but you can also see the jaggy edges on all surfaces (it's most likely running at 1024x768 or 1440 by some number I forgot) My dad has one so yeah...
The iPad 4 on the other hand has one beast of a GPU and a lower resolution, for gaming, our nexus would be no match for it.

I wasn't talking in general, I was talking about Real Racing 3. If the game runs better on iPad 3 than on N10, the iPad4 cannot be worst.
Moreover, not every games run on the ipad 3 runs at lower resolution in respect to its display res (I own one...)
Given that, I don't think the N10 is less poweful of the iPad3, but for many reasons (one of those is hardware fragmentation of course) it's not that easy/worthwhile to write games able to use the whole "horsepower" of an Android device.
Anyway, yes, the iPad4 has actually one the the best GPU solution on any mobile devices, I guess the N10 just cannot catch up.
We will see if a new N10 with quad core cortexA15 and the Mali T658 could compete with it.

I saw the videos once the uploaded them and they're amazing. What's the problem with asphalt 7 on the n10?
Well, now that it's patched, nothign except I keep getting bizarre physics glitches. Every time I do a takedown, every car on the track flies about 200ft in the air and falls down, making Knockdown challenges VERY hard. Especially getting 20 with the Alutec Boost One
Sometimes my car will spin 90 degrees, or even 180, on contact with a barrier or another vehicle.
Otherwise, I like it. However, Asphalt 8 has the Lamborghini Veneno in it...

[Q] Which games are nexus 9 compatible?

Hi all,
I am a happy owner of a nexus 9.
Apart from the bleeding at the edges and the fact that the back can be pressed in the middle, I am very satisfied with it. The downside will be that I will crave for a faster laptop, since it feels so slow compared to the Nexus.
Now I wanted to play some games to fully use the Tegra K1, however I do not know which are compatible with the Tegra K1/Lollipop/Nexus9. I tried Dungeon Hunter 4 as I like rpg's, but that onendidnnot work. I am willing to buy games if they are good enough but would prefer to know if they work on the nexus before buying.
If you have any suggestions let them know below.
Cheers Remco
Update:
Meanwhile Dungeon hunter 4 got an update. Now it works flawlessly.
Soulcraft also works great
Asphalt 8 too
Kritika (RPG) did not work
As I play other games I will mention them here.
I tried gta sa... it lags! Xcom too!

According to google play "Trine 2" does not work on the Nexus 9. At €15 for the game is it worth it on the shield?
Just download Shardlands and played for a while. Looks like a very good game, already paid €2.20 IAP to remove the ads. Good graphics and sound!
Marvel Puzzle Quest - NOT working. Closes automatically after loading screen.
Simpsons Tapped Out, god I wish I could stop occasionally loading this game, is currently crashing at the logo screen
Confirmed working:
Clash of Clan
Sky Force
Hitman Go
Zen Pinball HD - runs well but looks like its running at 720p = jaggies everywhere. This game looks better on my Nexus 5
...about Skylanders trap team?
