OpenFeint coming to Android, taking games to a whole new level

Submitted by on July 12, 2010 – 1:20 pm2 Comments

One if the one of the major  criticisms of Android is the comparably smaller choice of games when compared to the iPhone.  This looks set to change as Openfeint, who have nearly 10,000 developers with several thousand iOS games such as Fruit Ninja, Ninja Chicken and iCopter are planning to bring their games to Android by the end of the summer.  They look set to provide an Android SDK( software development kit) which will allow developers to rollout apps to both platforms very quickly.

This is great news for Android as hopefully this will encourage more iOS developers to join the open-source community to develop even more great games for Android.  I don’t know about you, but I would love to see more addicting games like Angry Birds to really bring the Android gaming to the same level as iPhone.

With more games on the horizon, this will hopefully encourage Google to make the Market more user friendly and easier to search, after all there is no point having the best games in the world if you can’t find them.

Only time will tell to see how much of an impact this has on Android- we are sure that it will be a win!
