Oh rock on! Does that mean there's going to be upcoming PowerVR SGX GPU support for the Android client?

I assume this was one of your non-disclosure agreements, now partially disclosed? Congrats!

Grats, Inc & GS ! Way to go, indeed...

now, can we have any update (new stuff) for regular players this week? Plz?

What about a Capship-day, when anyone can hire a Trident-M that vanishes 12h later, if not destroyed before?

Snapdragon SoC's were originally designed by ATI. Those SoC's contained the ATI Imageon. They have now since been renamed to "Adreno", after AMD sold off ATI's Imageon product line to Qualcomm. The GPU been significantly overhauled since then.
Fairly outdated Wiki Article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageon

That being said, I'd imagine the Adreno has far more similarities to the current generation NVIDIA Tegra than the PowerVR GPUs, which probably allowed incarnate & crew to quickly support Qualcomm's SoC.

Awesome stuff, Guild Software, keep up the good work. I'd like to see you guys make some more games once you guys take off ;)

Looks like the Xperia PLAY is on the list with the Snapdragon processors. A phone with 2 analog joysticks might give android users some combat edge in VO :)
