By The folks at NVIDIA are in Mobile World Congress this week tooting the horn of its Tegra 4 platform. You had to expect the chipset vendor would be coming to town with some fresh new games to stuff into TegraZone, and we finally have an idea of what they are. We’ve already gotten some hands-on time with a few of these, so be sure to check them out in our video above. We’ve also included some quick summaries of each game so you’ll know exactly what to expect one they launch in TegraZone.
Burn Zombie Burn
Developer: Tick Tock Games
Burn Zombie Burn blasts onto the mobile scene for the first time with fast-paced, console-quality action that has you striving to survive against a never-ending horde of zombies. With a slew of weapons available for your zombie-blasting pleasure, you’ll master the art of eradicating the undead.
Carie: Blood Mansion
Developer & Publisher: Neowiz
Tegra device users will get an exclusive map in Carie: Blood Mansion, with even more immersive graphics on Tegra 4 devices. You’ll guide Carie through bloody battles in this action adventure title. Keep an eye on the high-res textures, enhanced physics simulations and optimized fire and smoke effects in the below video.
CODEX: The Warrior

With an emphasis on action and fighting, Tegra 4 brings to life the 3D action RPG CODEX: The Warrior.

Dead on Arrival 2

The game features high resolution models andPhysX™, for full-bore map destruction and even bigger explosions.

cool thing about Root + chainfire 3d is I can play all the tegra “optimized” games I want on a better SoC and likely have better performance
I wish chainfire3d worked on Jellybean. :(
meh, they will come out with some hack to get the “optimizations” soon enough
I’m still waiting for some Tegra 3 optimized games to be released!
There are a few, not many free ones though
Looking pretty nice for tablet games. If Carrie: Blood Mansion is the next best thing to Orcs Must Die on tablets, I could very well be sold.
Tegra is bad for the Android ecosystem, with these “Tegra Optimized” games. Additionally, performance wise, they aren’t as compelling as Nvidia wants you to believe. The benchmarks speak for themselves.
