Two months ago we were getting our apps from the Android Market and DotEmu was promising to bring the cult classic game Another World to Android. Fast-forward to today, and the game is now available, but you won’t be getting it from the Android Market. Released today, Another World 20th Anniversary Edition will have you playing the role of a young physics researcher desperately trying to escape the hostile world he found himself in after lightning struck his laboratory.


You guys up for another rumor? According to a source that spoke with Android and Me, the Google Nexus tablet is a “done deal” and won’t be what we were hoping for. When we first heard the possibility of ASUS manufacturing the Nexus tablet, we immediately assumed the $249 quad-core ASUS MeMo 370T would be the device. This won’t be the case according to the source, who says the MeMo 370T was scrapped after Google contracted ASUS for the Nexus tablet.


A possible test photo from the mythical Samsung Galaxy S III showed up on Picasa recently. According to the EXIF data, it was taken with a Samsung GT-I9300 which just happens to be the purported model number of the GS3. The camera appears to be a 8.1MP and the future appears to be blurry. It’s really a bad photo and we’re not going to be to judgmental but… yea.


An update to the Google Play Store is being pushed out to users, bumping it up to version 3.5.15. You’ll find a few nice changes along with the usual bug fixes. You’ll now have an Installed and All tab for your apps. Like the web version, the All tab will show you all the apps you’ve ever downloaded, even if you’ve since removed them from your device. There’s even a handy dropdown menu for easily switching between your accounts should you have more than one.


Paypal has finally made it into the mobile payment market after being beat to the punch by the likes of Square and Intuit. PayPal may be late to the party but they have a more recognizable name in the world of payment systems and that may just be enough to push them to the front of the line. Besides their name, they’re also offering merchants a 2.7% flat rate on transactions versus the 2.75% offered by Square. PayPal didn’t stop there either, launching a full on geometrical attack by choosing a triangle as the shape of choice for their card reader dongle.
