S^3 multiplayer games - where are they?

3 replies · 5,855 views · Started 14 March 2011

I've noticed that Fruit Ninja and Sparkle have multiplayer options on the iPhone but not on S^3.

Are there any decent multiplayer (that utilize multiple phones, not phone sharing) S^3 games?

The only multiplayer game I'm aware of is Bounce Boing Battle that uses Bluetooth to connect to a friend.

On a related topic, has anyone else noticed that Fruit Ninja appears to have the iOS style achievements being awarded whilst playing but no way to view them in the game?

Oh that's what they are! Just took a peek at a colleague's iPhone and he showed me that they're recorded on Apple's Game Center.

I presume it's almost an exact port of the iOS one but without any of the Game Center functionality - you can tell they've not resized graphics if you see the iPhone/iPad version side by side with the S^3 one. The latter is stretched to fit.
