A lot of people are a little more than agitated at the fact EA’s upcoming Real Racing 3 game has gone freemium and that it is a time-based system players will have to contend with when we did our more detailed look at this system for Real Racing 3. It is a good game, it just has a horrible freemium system but should you decide to get the game anyways, there are a few supercars you might want to check out.

By now, you would’ve known that Real Racing 3 is due to be a freemium game employing a timer-based mechanic. I had my reservations about it, but reading the initial impressions of journalists from established gaming publications regarding the way the timer-system worked, I thought it won’t be so bad after all.
For those of you who used to spend hours and hours playing video games in arcades in the not so far gone past, you may remember how the racing games used to be back then. Well a two-man team of game developers wants to bring that arcade racing experience back to life across multiple platforms with Android being one of them with their game The 90s Arcade Racer.
So we have seen a couple of trailers, a few developer diary videos and a variety of screenshots regarding EA’s upcoming Real Racing 3 game. We’ve also been hit with the news that Real Racing 3 will be a free-to-play game where players will be able to buy the game’s secondary currency, Gold Coins, in order to speed up vehicle repair and upgrade times.
Another week and another blog post from the folks over at nVidia regarding their upcoming Android-powered handheld gaming system Project Shield. Previously we’ve seen Real Boxing running on Project Shield, which was last week, and the week before was Borderlands 2. This week the new game being shown off is Need for Speed: Most Wanted.
Yesterday we reported on the news that not only would Real Racing 3 be arriving on February 28th, 2013 but that EA would be doing a simultaneous release of the game on Android and iOS, shocking some of us weaker folk here on the Android side of thing. Then came the news that Real Racing 3 would be a free-to-play game, much to the chagrin of a lot of people.
Electronic Arts and Firemonkeys have finally decided to let the world know when Real Racing 3 will be released for all platforms. While Firemonkeys had been teasing everyone about the game with their developer diary videos, it was always stated that the game would be coming to mobile, using the generic term instead of saying iOS or/and Android.
Well, our Under The Radar column was meant to be something we did once every week or so, but in just the past few days I’ve come across some really good titles from first-time indie developers. So that leads us to our second Under The Radar for the week. More than half of the games on this list can be classified under the “brutal” category, so if you’re looking for challenging games then be sure to give them a go.
The folks at Firemonkeys have released a new developer diary video which this time talks about the multiplayer functionality that will be arriving with Real Racing 3. The multiplayer mode, called Time Shift Multiplayer, will allow players to race against other people anyone, anytime and even if they are offline.
Today we cover a couple of cool game, one where you can eat my dust and the other where you are turned into space dust (if you are not careful). Both have great graphics and quite enjoyable.
