Palm isn’t the only company who thinks quality games are an important part of a mobile platform. Android has jumped on the GDC (Game Developers Conference) wagon and will be working with developers at the show in San Francisco on March 9th and 10th. They will be giving demonstrations and working with developers on developing Java and C++ games for the Android platform. Google says that 7/10 of their 20,000 applications are games and that they are very excited to support the growing trend by helping developers create some games. We don’t know just yet if this means we will see EA or any other big mobile developers showing off any 3D games, but it is a possibility. No one thought Palm would do it, we have seen Apple hold the 3D game flag for some time, and now it is Google’s turn to show us just what Android can do. Also Google will be offering up some rewards for developers in attendance!
If you sign up before February 4th for the All Access or Tutorials and Summits passes then you will receive either a Motorola Droid or Google’s Nexus One from HTC. Show up to help out Google and in return Google will give you one of the two hottest Android phones available today!
