Max Payne Mobile now out on Android

Posted on by

Almost two months back we posted that Max Payne Mobile will be available for iOS and Android devices. But due to some delays, Rockstar Game’s deadline for the Android release was not met.

But now the long wait is finally over as the much anticipated third-person shooting game is now available for Android. But before you get too excited we suggest checking if your device is listed under supported devices.

• Motorola Razr• Motorola Atrix• Motorola Photon• Motorola Droid Bionic• HTC Rezound• HTC One X and S• HTC Evo 3D• HTC Sensation• HTC Droid Incredible 2• Samsung Galaxy Nexus• Samsung Nexus• Samsung Galaxy Note• Samsung S2• Samsung Galaxy R• Sony Xperia Play and S• Sony Walkman Z Series Media Player

• Acer Iconia,• Asus Eee Pad Transformer• Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime• LG Optimus Pad• Medion Lifetab• Motorola Xoom• Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 / 10.1• Sony Tablet S• Sony Tablet P• Toshiba Thrive• HTC Flyer• HTC Jetstream

Didn’t find your device? Don’t fret because when I went to Google Play website (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rockstar.maxpayne) I saw some of the review units that I tried before and most of them got a check mark which I assume should be able to run the game. I haven’t really tried installing the game on each of those phones since most of them are already returned. Here’s a screenshot of my Google Play Account with the listing of device.

And speaking of game installation, make sure to make room in your phone’s memory as this resource-heavy game requires a whopping 1.3GB of free storage in order for you to install it.

Max Payne Mobile will cost you Php186.26. It’s a bit costly but from the looks of things, we think that it’s going to be worth every peso, especially if you plan to play it on an NVidia Tegra 3 quad-core powered device as this game is especially optimized for such devices. We think that this may be attributed for the delayed launch. anyway, hit us back if you were able to install and play the game on your Android device.

Google, Motorola must capitalize on regulatory win ...

Posted on by

Governmental clearance of Google’s $12.5 billion purchase of Motorola Mobility — both here and across the pond — is no doubt a big win for the open source Android operating system. but it’s no slam dunk.

Google and its new hardware device arm must get more serious in the tablet wars. Unlike Motorola’s roster of Android-based smartphones, Motorola’s Xoom tablet has competed poorly against Apple’s iPad.

And iPad 3 is getting set to debut.

Motorola won’t say exactly when Xoom will get Google’s Android 4.0 update, also known as Ice Cream Sandwich. A spokesman for Verizon confirmed that all of these devices are expected to get the update — Droid Bionic, Droid Razr, HTC Rezound, Spectrum by LG, Droid Xyboard, Motorola Xoom and Droid 4 — but he doesn’t known when.

Motorola, for its part, has said it is working to deliver the ICS upgrade for DROID RAZR and Motorola RAZR in the first half of 2012.

The Xoom? Xyboard? So far, nada news on those releases.

This is all Motorola Mobility has said:

“we are planning to upgrade DROID RAZR™ by Motorola, Motorola RAZR™, Motorola XOOM™ (including MOTOROLA XOOM™ Family Edition) and DROID BIONIC™ by Motorola to Ice Cream Sandwich. we will provide more precise guidance on timing after post-public push of Ice Cream Sandwich by Google, as well as any possible additions to this list of devices.”

Now that the US Department of Justice and European Commission have okayed the deal, Google and Motorola need to act fast.

First, Google must be careful not to stifle tablet innovation by restricting or delaying access to ANY Android 4.0 code to Motorola Mobility’s rivals. Heck, Samsung beat everyone to the punch.

That being said, ICS is a big deal and Motorola — with Google’s supercharged backing — ought to get something out the door fast. Really fast.

Young generations of users — my four-year-old included – are already adept at the iPad in a Droid heavy home. Google could lose the tablet war — and the smartphone war, for that matter — if the resulting merger slows down the Android product delivery cycle.

“Ice Cream Sandwich brings an entirely new look and feel to Android. it has a redesigned user interface with improved multi-tasking, notifications, Wi-Fi hotspot, NFC support and a full web browsing experience. With Ice Cream Sandwich, Android has been rethought and redesigned to be simple, beautiful and useful,” noted David Rothschild, a senior vice president of software and services at Motorola Mobility, which spun off from Motorola last year. “ Ice Cream Sandwich introduces innovations such as Face Unlock to unlock your phone, a Data Manager to control your network data usage, and advanced multimedia and imaging features. Ice Cream Sandwich also provides developers with new APIs, unified U.I for phones and Tablets, and improved performance by enabling developers to leverage hardware graphic acceleration.”

Great. So let’s get moving, Google and Motorola. You’ve got the platform, the patents, the legal clearance and the innovation. but don’t let the bureaucracy and legalities of a merger blow your windows of opportunity. Time could be slipping on the tablet front.
