Phones like the N82, N95, N95 8GB or also E90 are running with the great CPU Texas Instruments OMAP 2420. This CPU has an integrated 3D accelerator which can execute highly expensive graphical operations.This topic is especially interesting considering the thing that the phones mentioned ahead are all real power phones being able to display very impressive graphics. That is actually the perfect condition for the new N-Gage platform to create games in an optical dimension never seen before on a mobile handset.But because Nokia decided to make the gaming platform also available for low-performance phones like the N81 and N73, both running with a non 3D accelerated CPU, all games that are currently available don’t use the possibility of 3D acceleration. That’s why all the games look much worse than they could do.
I found a nice video on YouTube showing the differences between a phone with 3D acceleration (N95) and a non accelerated one (N81). Read more… »
Yesterday I mentioned that Samir has released NokMote… you’d like to see how it looks like in practice you should keep reading.
You see, my friend Waynder beat me to this and made a quite cool video that shows NokMote in action. Even better, he used the Nokia N95 TV out feature to play Quake on the huge TV screen and Samir’s NokMote to control the game through motion sensing without need to press any buttons and the result is quite impressive. Great combination of the right hardware and right software adds a new dimension in mobile entertainment, brings a totally new experience to mobile game.. .. ..
I’ve just found some great news over at dedicated Ngage blog, it is finally confirmed that they are rolling out NGage platform next week!!!The bad news is that platform will be exclusively available for Nokia N81 8GB and Nokia N81 phones only and progressively available for the Nokia N73 and then for the rest of the compatible devices as the my friend Marty predicted in his article released few days ago. Quite strange move is you ask me and extremely annoying at the same time, especially for those entire fanatics ‘Gage fans that lacks necessary hardware.It seems that Nokia force Nokia N81 as there primary gaming device, and therefore it will be exclusively offered for N81 to gain popularity and reputation of this phone.
