Just paired my PS3 controller via Bluetooth through Sixaxis Controller. Works like a charm, i might put together a quick guide how to do it.

Made a custom mapping profile for GTA 3 and planning on making one for all major games specifically for the Nexus 7

I'll upload them here of course :good:

Gta 3 has native game pad support. No touch emulation needed there.

GTA III is a must. I already bought the game back when it was on same for a little over a dollar and I don't think I can play the game any longer on my poor ol' Defy (even with the quality on low).

Max Payne also looks like a worthwhile spend.

That should be it.

Is anyone else having a problem installing GTA3 on the Nexus? I can install it, but when it comes time to download all the files, I cant get it to work after that. After trying to download it, ill try to run it again and it just boots right out, no error or anything

Pinball

Monster Bash pinball is so faithfully recreated it's a joy - check out the trial and buy some table packs with your free store credit
Absolute bargain - seriously addictive.

I tried Dead Trigger and it runs great with extended support for the Tegra 3.

Ten dollars to play past the first bit. I was so pissed, but that's way too much.

Zen Bound 2. Because it runs at about 2 FPS on my Tab 2 7.0.

Then lots of THD games.

Agreed, they are asking way too much. I prefer paid, fully unlocked games.

There were a couple of reviews saying it force closed and didn't start up after a while on the Play Store for the Nexus 7.

No problems here at all! Plays smoother than it did on my PS2
