dkrtz Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I have an android (galaxy s3). And that alien game sounds pretty fun.. especially in the context of playing it in between mario-kart races and cards against humanity sessions during alcohol laced gettogethers haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HybridxReality Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 Good! I don't know if you know a lot about emulators, but you can have them on almost any Android and be able to play all the old school Gameboy games. If you're interested.

I know there's some cheap emus, but are there any good ones for android available free? If not maybe I should consider just buying one because having good ol' pkmn silver and monster rancher explorer on my phone would make me feel eight again. And les' be honest. Everything I do in life is to feel eight again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU HIT THE HYPERACTIVE SPACE DRIVE BUTTON FAST ENOUGH?! I HATE BEING IN THIS SPACESHIP WITH YOU AND YOUR DUMB HAIRCUT!!! Also, followed ya.

HybridxReality Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 I haven't done this in forever (this is making me miss Android) but there should be a free one on the Google Play store. Should be called My Boy. Or just type in "gba emulator" and it SHOULD pop up. It's been a minute since I've done this, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 We all need to be eight from time to time. One thing I don't recommend is fast-paced games. The lack of an actual button really sucks. It's awesome for Pokemon. I've tried A Link to the Past and it just felt too weird.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HybridxReality Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 That video covers it all. You still need to individually download the games (ROMs). I had completely forgotten how to transfer the games. Also, I THINK the My Boy can play the old GB games too, so there's no need for another emulator, other than that one. It could be any file manager. I just usually go with the smallest file size one. Google Cool Roms and download the ROMs like in the video, extract and you're set to play! Enjoy!

HybridxReality Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 Cool thing about the old GB games is that they're so small in file size, so they'll barely take up any space. (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 loganeatsdirt. I haven't been fascinating in awhile though, hahaha. The only game I have on my phone is Space Team and you have to play with multiple people. It was probably the most fun I had pent up in a hotel room. Everyone downloads the app and when you play, you're given different commands. You shout out the command and whoever has that button has to quickly press it. But panels break and slime covers screens and you get attacked by aliens. It's pretty wonderful. Space Team is a good way to make all your friends and family fight and scream at each other.I love it.

caninesapien Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I love world domination games. Great recent one is Rapture. Also all the stuff like Pandemic and all that. Seems like 90% of mobile games are Swipe the Angry Fruit Bird Ninja Crush Saga Crashers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 What's yer insta name? Also--any fun,simple game app suggestions guys? I feel like cellphones have the entertainment potential of a game boy if only it could be tapped haha I kind of hate playing games on my phone but once in a while I'll find one and obsess over it for months at a time a few of those are:(And these should all be on both Android and iPhone) Super Stickman Golf 2 (Free) Giant Boulder Of Death (Free) Hill Climb Racing (Free) Threes (Paid) Drop7 (Paid) Any of the 'Worms' games (Paid) Another game you can play on your phone or tablet (I only play it on my tablet) is Five Nights At Friday's (Paid), it's a horror games sans gore that will legitimately make you jump. I got a ton of guys at work playing it, the jump scares are priceless: http://youtu.be/P6OssZC_U1g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkrtz Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I'll look into those! Really interested in mobile strategy games and any games that are more time consuming and thought provoking with rpg elements (leveling, item use/upgrade systems, "worlds", mythos/actual characters, actual plots, etc). Id be down with actually buying games like that. Not so interested in generic swipey-swipe games that make up the majority of the most known games. Although I will indulge in a good repetitive games/puzzlers--im guilty of enjoying robot unicorn attack and bejeweled and stuff so suggestions for good repetitive games that can be played in brief bursts are welcome too.

mrewest Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I downloaded Jack Threads last night (free) because it came across Twitter as a promo tweet (the only time I've ever been suckered into a promo Tweet). But it has tons of slick hipster dress/casual clothes & other random stuff allegedly for great bargain prices. I was browsing last night & found some boots that were half the price they were on amazon so the deals seem legit. Haven't bought anything yet so I can't really vouch for it but it's got mostly 5 star reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used them a few times in the past, the deals look great until you get hit with shipping charges haha. Still not too bad, plus I got some cool shirts I've never seen anyone else wear.

Shitty Rambo Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I'm checking out an Android app called (Offtime) which essentially is Airplane mode with analytics and profile settings.

Satan Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Yo Rambo. My buddy works at Google and tipped me off to a new app. It's called "Inbox" and was designed to pair with Gmail and sorts your emails into certain folders automatically, aka : purchases, etc, etc. You're a nerd, GO PLAY!

Princess Logan Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 If you have an iPhone, Mailbox was truly worth the hype it got a few months back. I forget how long I had to wait "in line" when it came out, but I remember being so pumped when I got the notification that I could officially use it.

Shitty Rambo Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Link Bubble (Android/Free) - a "browser" made to be used alongside social media apps like Facebook and Twitter, when you tap a link in a post Link Bubble will load the page in a small circular pop-up browser in the corner so you can continue to browse the previous app and not get kicked to your Web browser's loading page.
