NVIDIA is preparing to release their Project SHIELD gaming device next month. Powered by their new Tegra 4 chip, the devices hold promise of raising the bar in mobile gaming. According to NVIDIA, more than 25 game titles are ready to be released in conjunction with the device that are tuned to take advantage of the Tegra 4′s new capabilities. Three of these titles are already available and run on Tegra 3, so they provide a nice preview.

Burn Zombie Burn
From developer Tick Tock Games, players have to survive hordes of zombies as they try to keep Daisy, a proverbial damsel in distress, from coming to harm. Burn Zombie Burn offers several game modes, arenas and challenges to whet your appetite for zombie killing. Graphics are on par with the PlayStation 3 version. Tick Tock Games will make exclusive levels available to players on SHIELD devices.

Arma Tactics THD
Developer Bohemia Interactive brings their PC gaming franchise Arma to mobile devices thanks to Tegra power. This particular version combines turn-based strategy play with an open world when players control their four-member Special Forces. The title takes advantage of Tegra-only enhancements like the ability to display more objects, better shadows, a higher geometry count, weapon effects and physics simulation. All of these enhancements produce a fabulous looking game.

dead_on_arrival_2

Dead on Arrival 2
The final title to check out is Dead on Arrival 2 from N3V Games. This is another zombie genre title that uses a top-down, third-person view for players looking to dispatch the dead…again. The title is currently in a closed beta phase as N3V Games works on the multiplayer features of the title. If you are interested in getting in on the beta, head over to the official web site at http://www.deadonarrival2.com/beta.php to sign up.

Both Burn Zombie Burn and Arma Tactics HD are available in both the Google Play Store and TegraZone. You can buy them using the download links below.

Google schedules two events for mobile Chrome on June 7 and 13

Posted: 31 May 2013 09:12 PM PDT

chrome_eventAccording to two livestream videos spotted on Google’s Developers website, there appears to be two mobile Chrome events coming up in the next few weeks. We don’t know more information than just the fact that they are scheduled for June 7 at 1 p.m. and June 13 at 11 a.m. EDT. Google doesn’t seem to have ever held an event solely for Chrome, and definitely not just for mobile Chrome. Just a few weeks after I/O, and a week after a mobile Chrome update, this is quite unexpected.

What could it be? Mobile extension support? Enhanced desktop/mobile sync? We’ll find out soon enough, and Talk Android will be bringing you the news as it comes.

Dutch Supreme Court rules that Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 design doesn’t infringe upon iPad

Posted: 31 May 2013 05:07 PM PDT

Sprint Galaxy Tab 2 10.1

 

The Supreme Court of the Netherlands ruled this week that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1′s design doesn’t infringe on design elements of the Apple iPad. This stalls Apple’s plans of trying to get the Galaxy Tab 10.1′s off the shelves in the Netherlands. Apple says that Samsung infringed on the registration of a 2004 “community design” of the iPad. A “community design” in the European Union is a form of intellectual property right that prevents businesses from copying the aesthetics of products.

The court dismissed the case, explaining that while Apple’s design patents were valid, there isn’t much of a case to be made against the Galaxy Tab since numerous other products have also implemented similar designs. The court also noted that the Galaxy Tab is different enough from the iPad to be unique in the eyes of an informed consumer.  Samsung responded to the ruling with a zinger, stating "Apple was not the first to design a tablet with a rectangular shape and rounded corners."
