    I haven't bought myself a new gadget in a while, so I decided it was time... Got an Asus Eee Pad Transformer, keyboard dock and all... It's like a detachable laptop... Very cool. Once I get settled in and set it up exactly how I like it, it'll be mostly replacing my old EeePC netbook. Any suggestions on good Android games to get? ...OTHER THAN Angry Birds... Everyone always seems to have some weird fixation with that one...

    Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

    Very cool, but I read today, the next version will be quadcore and available first half of 2012. Things are moving very fast in the ARM world. I would still get one now if I had a little expendable income :)

      Quad-core? In a tablet? Seems like overkill. If I wanted to play a game that needed four cores to render, I'd be doing it on my desktop with an actual mouse and full-size keyboard... "Boom, headshot!" just doesn't go well with a chiclet keyboard and a touch screen :)

        I have a Droid X. Androidify is amusing (you have an Android robot with resizable proportions and a rather extensive wardrobe of clothes, shoes, wigs and bodypaint.) Bubble Blaster is very addictive. Those are the only games I have at the moment.

                  Depends... How "slightly"? Are they at least mildly cross?

                    May I suggest heading over to forum.xda-developers.com and checking the ASUS Transformer area. Lots of good links and reviews for the TF101. BTW Welcome to the club...

                      Been there :) I've already installed a bunch of games... But there are a lot out there, and I'm sure I'm missing the real gems.

                        Nope. The first thing I did was create Android versions of my friends. I even did one of me, which is now one of my profile pictures on Facebook ;P

                                      I haven't bought myself a new gadget in a while, so I decided it was time... Got an Asus Eee Pad Transformer, keyboard dock and all... It's like a detachable laptop... Very cool. Once I get settled in and set it up exactly how I like it, it'll be mostly replacing my old EeePC netbook. Any suggestions on good Android games to get? ...OTHER THAN Angry Birds... Everyone always seems to have some weird fixation with that one...

                                      Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

                                      Grab the Amazon App Store for it. Free paid game every day, wo0t.

                                        I just bought an Rii Touch N7 keyboard. Love it! Check out my Android list[^] (ignore links) for apps and games.

                                          Depends... How "slightly"? Are they at least mildly cross?

                                          They are rather cheesed off now. Annoyed enough to think about writing a strongly worded letter to those responsible, but they'll probably not get around to it and will have forgotten about it in a couple of days.
