Google Currents is a great for almost all of the above.

CrustyOldDude.apk is popular.
But seriously, get him Pulse. Great newsreader.

Some games maybe? My dad for example likes sokoban, mahjong, spider solitaire and some bubble shooters.

Flipboard maybe?

I second Google currents.
News Republic, Distro, and Youversion are ones he might like as well.

Android Apps?

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question but what are the best mind blowing android apps paid/free that would possibly blow OS iphone out the window ??
swype! not available at the market, but you can sign up for the beta at swype.com
also google sky map.
Hmmm. It got to be all of the Google apps. Swype. SIPDroid. Google Voice (lol which is a google app). Springpad.
Yeah, pretty much all the Google apps. Plus the Super Nintendo emulator AutoDesk Sketchbook Mobile Express is pretty awesome too. As for Swype, it was there on my phone when I got the thing (LG Optimus S).
Aside from that, I'm new to Android myself so I'm curious to see what other people have to say as well.
Google Earth - Or has that been introduced to iPhone? I can't remember...but I personally LOVE it.

Yeah! And best: Apple doesn't want emulators on their phone.
And if you need to impress iPhone Users even more, just show them a youtube video inside the browser - one which says "not for mobile devices" in the youtube app. In dolphin mini I open the youtube video, go down the page an choose "Desktop" for this.

Please someone port fieldrunners on android

PLease port it guys im dieing to get it
yeah I dont think people can port that unless it is from the developers themselves bc we can get in a lot of trouble if we do, you should message the creators of the game

They need to port the ios to Android I ruok my Evo could handle it.

yah only thing i love about the iphone is games thats it, but there bringing good games over like cut the rope very soon. but idk about fieldrunners i think its an ios exclusive
Robo defense is very similar....
I wrote subatomic studios a very professional email about porting Fieldrunners to Android. I pointed out a lot of stats regarding the success of Android. (like they don't know anyway...)
I haven't heard back from them after a few months.
I've played robo defense and it's not nearly as good.
they have a bunch of similar games on the android like robo defense which was mentioned before i think its called tower defense is one too u just gotta look for em
just get an ipod, thats what I have...
Little piece of apple. without the horrible signal and ugly prices.
i have Robo defense its just not as polished as field-runners but it is still really good
The other way u can do it is have a friend do it for u but u can't upload it so no gets in trouble just giving ideas

Available for Australia New Zealand too... They really should let xperia play users vote for what games they want optimized for play... Just out of interest, what part games do you have available in your regions?

Everybody's Golf seems nice...

It annoys me that I can`t purchase any of the psx games simply because google checkout does not support my debit card type, and I refuse to touch credit cards
Ya they pretty much left America in the dust with this phone Cases finally came out in Cali but only online. It gave me plenty of time to scratch the hell out of my phone still love it though!

NO! The worst piece of crap that I have ever downloaded. Let's Golf 2 from Gameloft is a much better choice. Kind of like the same gameplay but much better graphics.
Let's Golf is the most boring golf game ever... Is Everybody's Golf actually WORSE?
wow, when i got the phone i was able to see the few games there, not it tells me the service is not available in my region wtf
Regarding "Syphon Filter 3" and "Wipeout", I can find them in the android market, but they don't show in the Playstation Pocket app. Is this normal?

Pocket RPG [xperia play optimised]

anyone tried this yet?
play store link
saw the news on some other site but it seems they've only released the xplay version.
Looks pretty cool, also looks like it is XP exclusive....I may buy it..after I finish DH 2 that is.
I saw the gameplay video on the dev's site and it looks really cool.

Bought this yesterday, it is awesome. THe touchpads works so well and the graphics are bright and crisp and clean. Sat down to play it for a couple minutes, 45 minutes later I was like" oh crap". Really a fun game. And I cannot stress how nice the touchapds work, THe dev did a seriouslt good job with the programming for touchpads. I prefer this to Dungeon Hunter series.....

Not going to comment on the warez part, the game itself is 1.99 on the PLAY store and in my opinion is totally worth it. And not that its a big deal but currently this game is Xperia PLAY exclusive on the market. You want english and Xperia support I highly recommend supporting the developer of the game and buying it, it really is a fun game and @ 1.99 is a steal already (you see that....pun..)

Do you think you can do a gameplay video for it? I just want to see it physically running before I buy it. As it is I may buy it anyways, just want to be sure because I only have 6.85 on my prepaid card atm..and was thinking of getting an.rcon app for my admin duties for my gaming clan.

Gonna try it for sure. It looks pretty similar to Torchlight, am I right?

I do have the screencast app, I can use that to record what I am playing. But be advised that the screencast app makes anything you do on the phone look al ittle laggy. Trust me this game flies.... and with nice graphics to boot. IF people really want to see it let me know and I can do a quick video of it and post a link here. If others have played it please post your thoughts on it as well.
The game boots really fast. Surprisingly I didnt see any lag considering the high graphic and effects etc even if your phone is OC or not.
Imo the only missing feature right now is multiplayer.

I agree. Multiplayer would be awesome and is the only thing missing..
So i went back to gingerbread today and I have to say this is one of the best games to come out for some time. I was wondering why i was getting lag spikes and it installed on my sd, moved to phone,no lag at all and it only has a 1.3mb size!

Street Fighter 4 drops LG exclusivity, now available for Android devices in Japan

After finding itself as an LG exclusive for almost a year now, the fighting game classic Street Fighter 4 is now finally available for download in the Google Play Store for a handful of other devices. The only problem is most of these devices are unique to Japan where the game is only available (for now). At $3.48 cents by current exchange rates, this is about as close as you’re going to get to having a true Street Fighter 4 experience on your mobile device.
According to Droid Gamers (which has an awesome new redesigned site), the Japanese Street Fighter 4 for Android also has an English option which gives us hope that it’ll be arriving stateside in the near future. The game currently weights in at hefty 1.3GB, so you might wanna start clearing out some old apps in the meantime. We’ll keep you updated.
