A couple of days ago we posted about a mobile MMORPG that would be coming to the West finally in a completely localized English version called Rebels & Rulers. Originally locally restricted to China, the game has undergone translation and will be heading to the Android Market by year’s end.
Day: December 16, 2011
Good news for those of you who have been wanting to play this top-down 3D zombie kill-fest of a game, Dead On Arrival has dropped the Xperia Play exclusivity and is now available for all supported Android devices running Android 2.2+. Time to slaughter lots of zombies!
EA working on Command & Conquer: Tiberium Alliances MMORTS for mobile devices, closed beta sign-ups live.
The other day EA announced that it would be bringing Command & Conquer to mobile and browser gamers. However, it isn’t the standard format of C&C RTS gaming that you are used to as this will be the series’ first MMORTS title and will launch with cross-platform multiplayer functionality.
So far we have talked about playing Shadowgun using the DroidMote apps in conjunction with a tablet and phone, then the DroidMote getting Xperia Play support. Now this versitile little application can let you play OnLive games on an Android tablet while using your Android phone as a game controller.
There are plenty of retro-style racing games we would like to see land on the Android Market, perhaps with a bit of a facelift to bring it a bit more into the modern times but still keeping that retro edge that makes old games still fun to play even today. One such game that is trying to accomplish this is Turbo Racer.
We have known for awhile that Scrubs was coming to Android courtesy of Herocraft and for those of you waiting to play the game, the wait is finally over and Scrubs is now available on the Android Market for download. Interestingly enough this game blends quite a few styles of gaming into one title.
We have been playing Grand Theft Auto III for mobile for about a week now and so we have had plenty of face time with the uncensored bat swinging car thief game. So with the high expectations one could put on a company like Rockstar Games, did we walk away from this hit game ported to Android impressed?
Big Blue Bubble, developers of Burn The Rope and other fun games, have released another title we mentioned would be on it’s way to Android in November. Although slightly late on release, Dark Incursion is a great retro-style Steampunk themed side-scrolling hack n; slash game for Android. It can also make use of those old 3D glasses you may have laying around.
It’s been awhile since we talked about Capcom’s signature fighting series Street Fighter and that it would be coming to Android, a few months at least. Well it’s starting to look like it is on it’s way and Capcom, partnering up with LG, are hosting a tournament to celebrate the launching of Street Fighter IV HD.
This morning we have a bit of a surprise on the Android Market thanks to EA and their sci-fi horror shooter Dead Space which is now available on selected Android devices today. Previously this title has remained as an Xperia Play exclusive for quite some time but now it has dropped the exclusivity.
