Infinity Blade, Ra... moreThe games you mentioned are mostly on android. Inifnity Blade(Gameloft website), GTA Chinatown wars, many many more mentioned.
Admittedly not all of them, but the best ones, because Ive played a few. I think when you look on the market for research you have to remember that there are a lot more game portals where you can buy paid for games than just the android market. Gamelofts site is just one of them and they dont have all there games on the android market.

Because Andriod support on... moreYoooo bro! A smartphone is the one which will be your PDA. Androids does much more than that! Push emails are for business purpose(usually), and hence RIM wins in that case. Androids just makes smartphones smarter and much interesting to use.
Don't take it rudely. Btw which phone are you using?

Tha... moreTo your response, if you want to go for design, there isn't a sexier phone than the sony ericsson xperia arc, if its for performance, its the Samsung galaxy s2. If you want both of these you could settle for the sony ericsson xperia arc s which has a better processor than the arc while also retain the style...

But i rather recommend Galaxy Nexus if you want to taste the ICS immediately, because you gotta wait quite a while to get ICS updates from past experience(Gingerbread).
Otherwise, choose GS2 which will be updated faster than other brands, because they already have a source code of ICS on their due to Galaxy Nexus and will officially update ICS ahead of any other brands. It is proven be truth from the gingerbread update race.

If only your report would give us model-to-model stats, then I can be assured that all the above mentioned holds water. A lot of these topping manufactures make $10 cell phones and claim to be the leaders of the market, you're kidding yourselves!
I can buy five house holds samsung cellphones with my Iphone 4 ($699). The fact of the matter is how many model-cellphones does a company cell, not the whole crap of low market-plastic phones. Get your facts checked!

iPhone h8er, 16 Nov 2011I find articles like this a bit off a joke googles os is on hundreds and hundreds off headsets... moreAs someone called "iPhone h8er", I'm not surprised you don't.
For the purpose that Android has set way back then to achieve, this is the victory. Goal set. Goal accomplished. They never intended to compete with only one/two/three models.

Anonymous, 16 Nov 2011Android is still no where near the stability of iOS. An app on iOS can crash itself but it can... moreYour opinion is outdated and bias. I use both platform and i think Android 2.2 onwards is as stable as iOS platform.
Since you are happy with iOS just stick to that but the need to belittle other is uncall for.

I use all three phone OS Symbian Ann, iOS, Android. They are all good in term of functioning as a phone.
As a smartphone it all voice down to the app and i could say that iphone and Android are almost at the same level now. Maybe there still this one or two app that only available on the iOS platform.
Android hardware stability is good, i don encounter any problem with the xoom, thinkpad tablet, milestone 2, Optimus 3D. I still own an iPad.
For iPad user try the knowtilus navigator, that one app that could beat all android browser app (the 0.2% that still win android hand down)
Hopefully, someone would develop something like that for the android platform and i will gladly pay for that app.
