The deals have started in the Google Play Store. Google said they would be hosting a ton of awesome deals, but we didn’t know it would be starting this quick. Games like ShadowGun, Osmos HD, and tons of others are just a $0.50 in the Play Store. From what Google said, we can expect these deals to last for seven days, but we don’t know if they’ll be swapping out apps each day. Might want to hurry and snatch them up quick before the deals disappear.

Also, Google Play Deals which change everyday for this week are just $0.25. Enjoy!

Fans of the over-the-shoulder shooter ShadowGun are in for a treat. According to the Madfinger Games forums admin RAZO, ShadowGun is about to receive an update this week in the Market which shall include 4 new levels, new enemies, new guns, and a whole lot more. Previously, this version of ShadowGun was exclusively for iOS, but now Android is finally receiving the love. 

Yesterday at NVIDIA’s press event we got a sneak peak at a couple of apps that are sure to get Android users excited. If you happen to own an i*ad, then it is quite possible that you have heard of Snapseed. It has recently won the “iPad App of the Year” award, but is now coming to Android. The Snapseed application allows users to turn any ordinary photo into a work of art. With its amazing filters and effects software, it is no wonder why it won app of the year.

Another announcement that came from yesterday, is that MadFinger is working on a multiplayer edition of ShadowGun. It’s called ShadowGun: DeadZone and it will keep folks busy for a long time with the ability to play with others just as you would any other online multiplayer shooter.  And from what we saw yesterday, they were playing with Xbox controllers. Oh boy. 

If you picked up a Transformer Prime (our hands-on) this week…err…if you pre-ordered one and have yet to receive a cancellation notice, then you’ll be excited to know that the Tegra 3 version of SHADOWGUN can now be purchased in the market. Well, you can purchase it once your tablet arrives, whenever that may be. Week of December 19 we were told. Anyone received one yet?

In this quad-core optimized edition, you will find “console-quality water, enhanced rag-doll physics, particle effects, enhanced shaders and dynamic textures.” And all of this is possible thanks to the Tegra 3 chip and it’s ultra-powerful GPU.  

There is no doubt that ShadowGun can make even the best dual-core processors run a bit laggy.  But what do you get when you try it on a Tegra 3 quad-core device?  You get epic gaming annihilation filled with guns and bacon.  The developer of ShadowGun has been working hard to make sure their game is at tip top shape when NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 launches for the masses.  And from the demo video above, looks like they’re doing a great job.

Your first chance to scoop up a Tegra 3 device will be with the Transformer Prime, which is set for some time this month.  As the excitement builds, so does John Slade’s muscles.

The previous releases of ShadowGun by Madfinger Games and Sprinkle were both for Tegra 2 devices only.  There should be plenty of happy gamers today though, as both games have dropped processor restrictions and shall now work on different types of Android devices.  As you an see in the pic above, all my glorious devices are compatible and that makes me a happy camper.  To top it off, there has been a free version of Sprinkle released and it rocks.  Go have some fun!
