Now that we are starting to see what the new Tegra 4 chip is capable of in both speed and graphics you can expect nothing but more good things to come as developers learn to tweak and and push the limits of what the hardware can do. There is still plenty of time for more developers to jump on board and take advantage of the Tegra 4 hardware since the first mobile device that isnt set to be released until the end of the year. Until then you can always download the TegraZone app on the marketplace to keep up with the games taking advantage of what ever Tegra chipset you might own.

As a bonus, here is Zombie Driver by Exor Studios in a video which is also being tweaked and optimized for the upcoming Tegra 4 chipset.
