Nvidia Tegra Zone is now active, LG Optimus 2X coming this month

NVIDIA announced today that their Tegra Zone application for Android is now official. It nicely coincides with LG announcing that the dual-core Optimus 2X will launch this month. Tegra Zone is an Android app that will offer Tegra 2 users suggestions about games, optimized especially for their dual-core chipset.

The Tegra Zone app looks really nice. It offers high resolution screenshots and professional reviews of the games. Even HD video trailers and gameplay videos are included.

Among the titles available at launch are Fruit Ninja THD, Monster Madness, Dungeon Defenders, Backbreaker THD and the first games on Android, built on the Unreal Engine 3 - Samurai II: Vengeance and Galaxy on Fire 2 THD. Here are some screenshots for you guys to enjoy.

Sadly, though, all the games featured so far are paid - there's no bonus content for Tegra 2 users.

If you still haven't been hooked up with a Tegra 2 phone or a tablet, you'd be happy to know that LG is launching its Optimus 2X smartphone this month. The phone will launch with Froyo but will be updated to Gingerbread afterwards. There's no info on specific launch dates or pricing.

Current pre-order prices will set you back either 500 euro (Amazon.de) or 500 pounds (Expansys UK).
