Question games that take advantage of GAPI?

i live in japan, and thus, there are no promos from Dell that would include the two GAPI-compatible games (Enigmo is one, I forgot the other...)...

anyway, aside from these two, what other games (preferably strategy) that take advantage of the graphics accelerator of the X50V?

thanks!!!

Actually, GAPI refers to the game programming language used on all Pocket PCs.

I believe you are refering to is OpenGL ES, which is what the 2700G (graphic accelerator on the x50V) uses.

Cube is one game that uses the 2700G. I believe there is one other, but I do not remember what it was called.

thanks for the suggestion... and yes, i was referring to the 2700G that comes with the x50v...

it is just that i really dont know much about gaming in PPCs - never tried them before (so never bothered learning about them)...

Solterra uses it. it's pretty crappy, and I wouldn't suggest purchasing it, unless you just want to support development of 3d games...

Hmm, cant think of the others, but there are more.

At the bottom of my X50v review, I have a few game links and demos that show off the intel 2700 gfx chip. Enjoy!

With an attitude like no other...
You will know when he's in your path.
If you wish to see him shrouded in the light,
Chances are, you'll see him fade into the black
Continuously watching everyone's suggetions and problems,
Not overlooking the ones talking smack,
Your NEW Morphgear Project Administrator,
Will always be able to answer them back...

New Handheld I'm getting! Jumping out of Pocket PC World for sure now ...

Yes, that is the other one. I agree that it does not look too impressive, or at least looks like it could have been done without using the 2700G.

The situation should improve when Windows Mobile 2005 comes out.
