    So how is performance on the Incredible with this? I know the Inc doesn’t have the 3D hardware acceleration that the DroidX and some other current gen phones have. Does this run well on that phone?

    • Good question, it was reviewed and played flawlessly on Nexus One. We’ll have it tested on Incredible. I was not aware that phone did not have hardware acceleration.

      • Trent says:

        I saw some benchmarks showing Snapdragon based phones not having the 3D acceleration that other phones (like the Motorola Droid) have. That’s all. I haven’t honestly looked too much into it. Just some things coming up on my RSS feed.

  2. Trent says:

    I did download it, it seems to run fantastically well on the Inc after all.

    By the way, you can change the Y Axis tilt in the settings so it’s what you would expect it to be (not joystick like).

  3. Kenji says:

    Looks a fantastic game – if my EVO’s battery life wasn’t already so bad, I would definitely download this.

  4. balzzzy says:

    I looked at the reviews, watched the game promo and eventually downloaded the game. The graphics are by far some of the best that the Market has seen. As for the controls, it wasn’t just the learning curve, it was also my screens reflective surface that made tilting my phone awkward and hard to see. I uninstalled due to frustration.

Trackbacks/Pingbacks

  1. [...] fun, but it’s not the sort of thing you can play for 3 hours on a PlayStation. I downloaded Heavy Gunner, considered to be a fairly sophisticated game as phone apps go. My kids want nothing to do with it [...]
