The Pros and Cons of Android Gaming

Davis from Denkiphile Gaming: "Just two years ago, browsing the Android market for games often meant either finding a slew of Angry Birds titles or its clones, while friends and family on iOS devices had access to titles like Jetpack Joyride first and more hardcore titles from a vast range of established gaming companies like Square-Enix. However, a quick glance today reveals titles like NBA Jam and Final Fantasy III, legitimizing Android devices for gamers as much as any iOS device. With the incoming release of the Ouya and announcements for nVidia’s Project Shield and Game Stick, there seems to be an impending explosion of Android gaming awaiting us in 2013 and on. However, this comes with it a series of pros and cons that gamers must analyze before either getting onboard with or shrugging off Android gaming."

Nope it's just old as hell classic games that we see getting released every few years on every platform .

If android /ios platform could deliver more than that , actually interesting exclusive new games (and not just clones of 16 bits games and 2 infinity blade games) , then there would be some pros .
