I have some games, just to try out the gaming experience on the tablet. Never been a heavy gamer, but I had played few extensively (Ghost Recon, Need4Speed, Max Payne)...

So, yeah, Max Payne - installed it, seems pretty nice! Hard though, as i am not yet used to touchscreen based playing. But good old Max rox :)

Yeah, Riptide's fun.
I'm not really shooters' fan, so haven't tried Shadowgun.
In my apps thread I've included games, but let me just copy it there, as there in fact should be a separate games thread :)

Favourite(?) games:
- Heroes Call THD (Edit 15.07.2012: the developer has responded to my email and was kind enough to offer me gems for free after my loss of data; btw, linking to Facebook account can help you move progress between many devices, this way I got back my progress from the iPad ); Broken Sword: Director's Cut; GTA III; Angry Birds (Space and earlier)
- I'm about to try more than few clicks in some games that seem promising: Siegecraft THD, Grabatron, Six Guns, Wind-up Knight
- some classics: TrialX2 (Winter), Cut the Rope HD, Robo Defense (quite big on this screen, but still cool)

I see that you liked my suggestion of Grabatron lol. That game is pretty fun.

I also updated the OP, it has a list of some games now.

Yeah, I told you I liked it from the very beginning! :D Forgot it was you, n1.
You can add Broken Sword: Director's Cut to the list, it's a great classic revived, although I liked it better in lower res (had it on iPad), as you can see some pixels on FHD.. but, on the other hand, this adds this retro style to it.

Do many games support keyboard controls? My PC's PSU is awaiting replacement or I'd try some splashtop (or whatever asus calls it) gaming with steam. Touchscreen controls never exactly wowed me, save for casual or top down strategy like tower defense, and accelerometer controls have just never wowed me at all.

I think some do actually. I think GTA III supports keyboards, I also think that CS Portable might work too.

Even though I've got a bunch of other THD/marketplace games, I find myself playing emulators more often than official android developed games!

My favorite is yongzh's N64oid. Runs better than Mupen64 Plus AE in my opinion, and all the games I have tried have been very smooth on the infinity. Super Smash Bros, Star Fox, Animal Crossing, Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask, Kirby, Mario Kart, etc, etc all run near-perfect, emulate at native resolution, and look amazing on the TF700. Add an HD texture pack (ex: 1 2 3) and it the graphic quality will rival or surpass most new android games!

Wow I didn't even know people made full re-texture packs. That's actually quite cool! I'll be putting some of those in N64oid, that was one thing I didn't like about playing emulators, the textures look awful when stretched to 1080p.

I know majority here probably wants some 3d and heavy graphics games list, but I simply love simple and addictive games.
New star on my list: Auralux. Crazy!

Just tried dijipi's pack for OOT and super smash bros HD pack, both working great on N64oid, doesn't seem to slow it down at all!
Here are all available (WIP or Complete) texture packs for N64.

    Anyone tried Nova 3 on the Infinity?
    Read about freezes and black scenes...

    I have. And yes, it did have the same symptoms at first. So I made sure I disabled autostart for all unnecessary apps. After a reboot (and still about 700M free mem according to the System Tuner widget) I was able to play Nova 3. After about 20 mins of play I closed it and started MC3 (also part of the end of summer sale). Previously, it too would freeze/flicker, but I was able to play it. I quit after about 30 mins and returned to Nova 3. About 5 mins in, I died, and respawned, but the screen would start to flicker/freeze.

    It seems to me that both games and/or the nvidia gfx driver are memory hungry and can't deal with memory fragmentation very well. I'm still trying to dig up some clues as to what might be the cause of all this using CatLog. I have already tracked down that when the screen starts to flicker/get stuck CatLog shows a lot of NvRnChannelSubmit failed entries (from NvOsDebugPrintf), which has been reported for other games as well, here on xda.

    do you have instructions on how to get Zelda textures to work?

    I try and try...

    "
    1. You need to first download the textures you want. Usually googling "N64 texture packs" gets the job done. Or name of the game Star Fox 64 Texture Packs(or hacks)

    2. After you download your texture pack, unzip it. There should be a single folder, inside that folder you should see more folders called Characters, Ingame, Text, etc. (Depending on the game)

    3. Move that folder to your SD Card \.n64oid\hires_texture\ (So if we downloaded a super smash bros texture it would look like \.n64oid\hires_texture\SMASH BROTHERS)

    4. Next the name of the folder must match the "Rom Name" of your n64 game rom. To know the Rom Name:
    -Download Tool64
    -Open the folder where your roms are (File > Open)
    -Right Click on the rom and select Rom Properties
    -Look at the "Rom Name" value, that is what the folder needs to be named.

    5. Open N64oid, go to Settings > Engine settings > Enable external textures. And turn those on.

    6. Start the game up and all should be fine."

    My folders are "STARFOX64", "THE LEGEND OF ZELDA", SMASH BROTHERS", etc.

    Texture packs in .dat form (glide64 plugin version) will NOT work, unfortunately. You have to use unpacked versions that just have the .png files, etc.

    Here is a version of djipi's cell pack that is unpacked and compatible with n64oid. (not in .dat form.)
