You should upgrade to the new Nexus 7 (2013 model). You won't regret it. It's better to invest in that, than to buy an NVIDIA Shield. I like waiting a year after a tablet comes out before I even think about buying one. I just bought a refurbished Nexus 7 16GB 2nd gen and I'm waiting for it to come this week.

I play Badland, leo's fortune, real racing 3 and emulators such as Drastic, FPSE, MD.emu and everything works like a charm.

Just finished Leo's Fortune (great story, gameplay and graphics). Now I play The Walking Dead ( reached season 2 episode 2) , Dead Trigger 2, Modern Combat 5, Asphalt 8, Minion Rush, Trials Frontier, Manuganu 2, Zombie Tsunami, Badlands, God of Light, Inner World, Kritika, Deer Hunter 2014. I recommend all of them to you guys.

What rom, kernel, governor, scheduler, oc settings u have?

Stock 4.4.3, elementalx kernel, 1.7 OC row sched. I use 80% resolution low effects and reflections off with 50% draw distance, good balance that runs well without looking too crunchy, wish it was as optimized as some other games as it could run near max if it was
EDIT: Turned frame limiter off and now it flies with medium effects and low reflections, can push it further but I like it smooth!

The Shield would be a far better option. The Nexus 7 2013 is no longer worth it at 230$. IF he gets it for less, sure. Otherwise, the Shield holds the better value.

In case someone needs this: I found on the web, the perfect settings that make GTA San Andreas 1.05 work flawlessly on Nexus 7 2013 : Traffic Heavy, Frame Limiter OFF, Visual Effects Medium, Resolution 80%, Draw Distance 80%, Shadows Classic, Car reflections Low. Loving the game so far (did about 8 missions now).

Not a double post, it's 6 days apart since the last one !

Can you guys tell me some games for android that work on Nexus 7 2013 (except tegra only games because they don't work), that "you must play before you die" ? I mean games that really "leave a mark" on you when you are playing it and you say : WOW that is a really great game ! I don't mean "top games" like flappy bird or games like "let's cook a hamburger fast for x costumers"

So far as I remember I've played : GTA San Andreas, Angry Birds (all of them), The Walking Dead (both seasons), Minion Rush, Subway Surfers, Temple Run 1&2, CSR Racing, NFS Most Wanted, Modern Combat 4 and 5, Asphalt 8, Leo's Fortune, Dungeon Hunter 4, Badland, Dead Trigger 1&2, Granny Smith, Manuganu 1&2, Riptide GP 1&2, The Amazing Spiderman, The Dark Knight Rises, Zenonia (all 5 games), Real Racing 3, Deer Hunter 2014, Where's My Water 1&2, Rayman,The Room 1 & 2, Machinarium, NOVA 3 and some other games I can't remember right now.

Ty in advance !

Try The Room 1 and 2. You won't regret it. Once you have finished them, you can die in peace.

EDIT: Sorry, i didn't saw them the first time I read the post.
What about Cut the Rope?

 

[idCyber]

Try The Room 1 and 2. You won't regret it. Once you have finished them, you can die in peace.

They are in my list, finished the first one and I am playing the 2nd now, but Thanks. Hard games that really puts the mind to work and the feeling after completing a puzzle is great.

Edit: played the first cut the rope but there are 3 more. Gonna get them. Thanks for reminding me about it.

Edit2: if you guys have more games that are worth playing, please reply. Also I've played Kritika but it's pay to play after lvl 23, the game requires hours of farming to get past a new dungeon.

Recommend Kingdom Rush (and Frontier), Osmos, and the Hexage games (e.g. Radiant, Radiant Defence). Also, I'm particularly enjoying Beach Buggy Blitz, and very partial to Mini Motor Racing.

Gene Effect

Guys,

Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Lightstorm3D.GeneEffect Gene Effect. It's really high on graphics. Very smooth controls (compatible with MOGA) and good script and gameplay. I was hooked to it in the first 5 minutes. I loved the background music of the game. Very transcendental and soothing.. Has a haunting feeling to it too, goes great for the game.
