You may remember the “Glowball” demo you were drooling over the first time Nvidia showed off the graphics capabilities of their upcoming Tegra 3 processors. Well, the game has popped up in the Tegra Zone app and apparently it will be available for download sometime in December — most likely along side the ASUS Transformer Prime.
Features include:
- Designed specifically for devices using NVIDIA® Tegra 3™, quad-core mobile superchip
- Carnival level includes nine concurrent cloth simulations running in real-time
- Sea Floor level includes 300 simulated kelp plants, 1400 other moving plants, and 2 million triangles of scene geometry
- Interaction of scene objects using NVIDIA PhysX®
- Dynamic scene lighting that can be changed by tapping on the ball
- Particle, reflection, and skinned animation effects
- Caustic lighting, fog, and schooling fish in Sea Floor level
- Custom vertex and pixel shaders make for shiny fish and a wavy sea
- Splitscreen mode allows you to turn visual effects on/off and compare the results
Glowball, while not exactly featuring in depth gameplay, will definitely be your “go-to” app for showing off the power of your shiny new Transformer Prime, whether it’s to convert iPad owners or win over friends and family.

Wow this looks way shittier than the original demo; what a scam. No anti-aliasing like the first demo? Once again, Nvidia mobile CPU/GPU: over-hyped with poor performance. I hope they prove me wrong, but the Tegra 2 was horrible and anyone that claims otherwise is a blind fanboy or just doesn’t understand how important it is to have BASIC SHIT LIKE OVERLAYS supported.
Glowie ball……. oooooooooh…. @_@
Or rather you just don’t like NVIDIA or are secretly an iPad phansheep who bought one of those superior tergra 2 tablets and has to bash it in public so his fellow phansheep don’t disown him.
(and yes I misspelled “fan” on purpose)
do you fuckers realize how retarded you seem? ” you’re a fanboy no I’m not yes you are no I’m not…. your an apple fanboy
that was not relevant
Hence the name. lol
I agree…it doesn’t look good at all.

Since when did “300 simulated kelp plants” become a desirable feature…?
I don’t think this makes it any desirable. They should work on the graphics more.
Typical nVidia all hype no actual performance power
Exynos II/Orion on the Galaxy S III should rape this and to the next tegra 4 the summer after that!
Looks good to me. The comparison is a bit of a scam, but fairly impressive potential.
