For years Gameloft has avoided the Android Market by making games available on their own site, and when the Amazon Appstore opened, Gameloft's Chief Executive, Michel Guillemot said the following:

“The Amazon ecosystem is controlled where we don't find too many pirated versions of our games or malware games, so for the consumers, it will be a safer place to come and get applications.”

We have seen releases like Modern Warfare 2 and Asphalt 6 released in the Android Market and now N.O.V.A. 2 HD and Order & Chaos Online have been released. It seems as though the Android Market is not looking so bad right now and why isn't anything appearing on Amazon? Amazon only has Asphalt HD.

In the end it doesn't matter. As long as they are available somewhere is all that matters.

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.
