Former LucasArts vets at Fearless Studios announce webOS game for HP TouchPad

Jun 23rd 2011 2:03PM (Joystiq)
I've been using WebOS for my phone since June of 2009, even turning down an iPhone 4 to keep it.

Once you have used WebOS, all other mobile OS's are just painful to go back to.

I also had an game developer coworker I worked with 2 years ago go to Palm to work on WebOS so I guess it's obvious they want to be a game platform.

Exciting, I hope they get traction.

Android hasn't won anything except the hardest phone OS to make games for.

How to root a WebOS phone:

1: type leftrightleftrightupupdowndownbastart
2: press enter

No I'm not kidding. Google it. Google will help you find out how to root a pre easier than they will openly support patching, modding, and overclocking their OS while also hosting events for the homebrew community and supporting homebrew app stores - which palm does.

That's great. It still doesn't spell a good gaming platform. And WebOS is. WebOS is also a million times easier to root, modify, and patch with support from Palm.

I just hope in Q1 with Palms new hardware that WebOS starts gaining ground and more people realize how far much further ahead it is than Android.

Funny how Angry Birds was ported to WebOS in one day but it takes months to port it to Android.

Android's popularity is perplexing to me. Sure, it's better than iOS, but it's still not that great. An OS running in a Java VM, written in Java, and only runs Java apps does not make a great gaming platform. Why it gets gamer support, I'll never understand.

DAOC was/is badass. It is leaps and bounds better, in most ways, than WOW. Problem is, nobody plays anymore.

Don't blame Volition on the late patch. Microsoft sits on and tests patches for months before putting them up on Live. Blame Microsoft. Developers (including volition) release patches quite quickly, to Microsoft.
