Some Android Fun for You

Modern phones are incredibly powerful gaming platforms, limited only by the small screens and touch control interfaces. That makes classic PC and arcade games, which don't have much in the way of hardware requirements, a natural for game developers to port to Android. 

Android Police have assembled a list of 40 classic PC, console, and arcade games that you can play on your Android device. 
Some modern mobile games are great, but rarely are they true replacements for the classics of old. Android has a surprisingly decent number of ported retro games from console, PC, and arcade platform, and we've gathered some of the best ones that have been released over the years. These games are true to their original forms, with existing graphics (as in, they're not updated to look and play like newer games) but if you're looking for a roundup of classic games that have received a modern makeover, we've got you covered in a separate post. A lot of these games are ones you and I grew up playing, and I've hand-selected the cream of the crop. So whether you're an old gamer like me or a new gamer who would like to check out some retro classics, I've put together this roundup just for you. For convenience, I've listed all of the games by price in order to make discovery easier. So dig in and enjoy!
I'm not a big gamer these days, sticking mostly to card games and some blockout-style games, but there are several on this list that I will probably try.  Blazing Star looks especially good.
