Nvidia Launches GameStream, Adds Shield Button-Mapping

Image
Shield updated to Android 4.3. If you're an owner of Nvidia's portable Shield gaming console, there's some fairly hefty announcements coming your way today. As IGN previously reported from an event in Montreal , GameStream--beaming compatible PC games from your GTX-ready rig to the Shield--has officially left beta. And on the Android side, the Shield's library of mobile games has expanded considerably. After its launch, the Shield was only compatible with a particular list of Android games. But starting today, Nvidia has launched the Shield Gamepad Mapper, allowing nearly any Android title to be converted to Shield's controller inputs. Nvidia will release button mapping profiles on a weekly basis via over-the-air updates, but it's also possible to set your own configurations and share them with friends. IGN's review of the Nvidia Shield did take some contention with the--then beta--streaming of PC games to the portable unit. After spendin...

OnePlus One tops Galaxy S5, One (M8) in AnTuTu 4

Image
OnePlus continues to tease its first phone called the One. The maker has revealed it will use the Snapdragon MSM8974AC chipset – the one with Krait 400 @ 2.5GHz – and 3GB RAM for its debut handset. OnePlus released a screenshot of an AnTuTu 4 score, which tops all current flagships. This is the cumulative score, it doesn’t show the separate CPU and 3D scores that the device achieved, but they should be on par or better than any other Android on the market right now (or in the near future). AnTuTu 4 Higher is better Sort by Label Sort by Value OnePlus One 38179 HTC One (M8) 37009 Galaxy S5 (Snapdragon 801) 36018 LG G2 35444 Sony Xperia Z2 34986 Samsung Galaxy Note 3 S800 31109 The OnePlus One will also feature a 5.5″ 1080p screen, 13MP camera (check out the first samples here ) with Sony sensor and 4K video. It will be unveiled in a week and when it comes out in Q2 it will cost €350.
