    Per popular demand, we've created an Android category and sub-forum here on TouchArcade. Keep in mind, all the things on the iOS side of things that make the forums look nice (Like the appinfo tag and stuff like that) don't exist (yet?!) on the Android side... So, posting about games and things like that will be a little rough around the edges compared to iOS games threads I'm thinking.

    Either way, let's see what this turns into. I'm actually sort of curious what sorts of Android things are going to get posted here. I'm not adverse to potentially creating more Android subforums, but let's see what kind of demand there is first before jumping in head first.

    Same rules apply here, don't be a jerk, etc- As part of that, let's try to keep the pro/anti-platform zealotry at a minimum since that doesn't do much but make people angry. :)

    What are the best Android exclusive games?

    I know this is the wrong place to ask a stupid Question but I don't want to see new posts in the Android Forum, so is it possible to block the Android Forum??

    Nice!

    This is great. I've been an Apple devotee for four years, but I just replaced my ageing iPhone with a Nexus 4. And I've still got an iPad. So thanks chaps!

    Is there a suggested etiquette for cross-platform games? If a game is on both iOS and Andriod should it have two threads?

    Too bad there's not a App Shopper for Andriod.

    TouchArcade was never intended to be JUST for iOS. For a long time I remember Eli saying that the name was intentionally vague so that if Android became popular and requested enough, the site would branch out as necessary.

    I'm going to go ahead and say that due to the issues facing Android and compatibility, there should be separate Android thread.

    Wow, I just saw this!

    Was this on the back of the thread? Or has this been in development for quite a while?
