Mobiler Mission 2 - How to download games + My top 5

For the final part of my Mobiler mission i am going to show you how to download a game from the Samsung Game Hub and then i will tell you my top 5 recommended games for android!






This is the opening screen of the Game Hub, Samsung have kindly separated the games into 2 sections - Social Games and Premium Games. Social games tend to be free and are opened via the Game Hub itself.  I decided to download "Forces of War" for my demonstration



On the download screen you will see a description of the game, a few screenshots and the nice big green install button. If the game is free simply hit the green install button, as noted earlier with music and books if you are buying a premium game you will be prompted to input a payment method.


Now the game will install...


Now the game as automatically opened, with this particular game you have to register but this isn't necessary with all games.  With certain social games such as "Forces of War" you will need to open the game hub to access it and you wont have a separate app icon for it. You will see a green play button by any games you have already installed.




My Top Games














So... Your stuck on a train that isn't moving or your in the office with absolutely nothing to do, well thanks to the power of android this isn't no longer an issue! With powerhouse phones such as the Galaxy S2 the games available have greatly improved with near console like performance! So here is my top 5 recommended games that i think will help you get the most out of your smartphone!

1. Angry Birds

If you haven't heard of Angry Birds then you really are missing out, they often say simple is best and in this case it is! Angry Birds is based around a family of birds who are rivals with a family of pigs (Yes keep on reading :P) and the object of the game is to slingshot the birds into the pigs, Angry Birds provides lots of levels that give varying challenges and its assured to keep you slinging them ole birds for hours on end!

2. Asphalt 6

Asphalt 6 is the most powerful racer on Android today, it gives breathtaking visuals, lots of cars and tracks and loads of playability. There is a slight learning curve to the game but once you have mastered drifting round corners using your phones accelerometer (Certain phones) you will be burning rubber for weeks to come!

3. iBasket
 
iBasket is a simple but addictive game, its all about aiming the ball and getting through the hoop in the set amount of time. It gets more addictive the more you play because i find myself often trying to beat my score when i have a few spare minutes
