This is a really awesome racing game, but unless you have a really powerful Android device, one equipped with Tegra 3, you won’t be able to run it. It looks and plays out great and is well worth its high hardware demand.
Official Description :
The premier console-quality water racing game for mobile.
Riptide GP is the first ever console-quality water racing game for mobile, featuring super-realistic water physics, real-time reflections (dual core only), and gorgeous high-detail vehicles and environments.
Rev up your supercharged jet ski and take a wild ride through twisting canals and rivers, futuristic cityscapes, and mysterious research facilities. Skill, stunts, and speed will be your best allies as you grab massive air off huge waves, kick out death-defying tricks, and boost your jet ski to victory across a dynamic, ever-changing torrent of foam and spray.
RIPTIDE GP ENHANCED FOR TEGRA 3!
The quad-core power of NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 superchip has enabled us to add even more detail and excitement to the Riptide GP experience. Tegra 3 players get extra-high-detailed normal-mapped waves, realistic water splashes on the camera, and a dramatic motion blur effect when boosting. Riptide GP looks even better thanks to the power of Tegra 3!
COMPATIBILITY NOTES:
We now support many Android devices, including the Galaxy S2, Droid X, Xperia Play, HTC EVO 3D, Nexus S, and many more. Please note that Riptide GP is a processor intensive game, and requires a high-end smartphone or tablet for optimal performance.
If you do encounter a problem running the game on your device, please email the device you’re using, Android OS version, and a detailed description to support@vectorunit.com, instead of just leaving it in comments. We actually respond to our support emails, and if we can’t fix your problem we’ll give you a refund.
GAMEPAD SUPPORT!
The ultimate console-quality mobile racing experience just got even more console-y! Now you can kick back on your couch and play Riptide GP with your Bluetooth or USB gamepad. (USB gamepads only supported on Android 3.1 or higher.)
