4.0 out of 5 stars Works on Samsung Vibrant
Not much to say, the same game I've enjoyed greatly on my PC now on Android. The game runs fine and smooth on my Samsung Vibrant, it's quick and responsive without any issues. I understand the frustration with the game not working on older Android devices, but complaining about download size or connecting over WiFi is a bit silly to me. Highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save state lost
This is a pretty fun game, but it frequently loses track of your game progress and you have to start over.

Extremely frustrating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not without some quirks..., May 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Plants vs. Zombies (WiFi Download Only) (App)
Good game. Slow loading, but smooth gameplay. Same basic mechanics as found in all other versions. Big fan of the original. Don't know what the graphics are like for the iPhone, but compared to the pc version, this is low quality (to be expected). Glad I didn't have to pay (thanks Amazon!) since I already own both the PC and PSN versions.

Three quirks:

1) No option to keep the screen on. If your phone goes to sleep, even for a second, it will have to reload the game. (easily solved via update)

2) No resolution (widescreen) adjustment. Most android sets have wider AR than the iPhone's 3:2, or the iPad's 4:3. This seems like an iOS port. It'd be great if the image weren't simply stretched out to fit a widescreen. (not as likely to be fixed)

3) Would like to see different graphics settings presets. Graphics seem to be deliberately lowered to be compatible on older phones. Would love a "high" setting for phones that can handle it. (not likely either)

All in all, I can't complain too much, since it was free. I probably would have paid for it anyways. The quirks aren't deal-breakers, just minor annoyances. T-Mobile MyTouch 4g Froyo

2.0 out of 5 stars nothing special about this developer's lazy special, June 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Plants vs. Zombies (WiFi Download Only) (App)
its a port. people who give this a five star rating are foolish. its just a flat port from the ios version of the game. high end devices can't even run it or if they can the screen looks horrible and pixelated. it doesn't do the game justice. people should be rating low so they know that laziness is not a good business model. they also need to dump the wifi only download. big turn off for the size of the file. had to mod the game so that it would handle the memory and non iphone sized screen of the droid x. something the developer could of done in five minutes. I have it running on all Motorola devices with just about five minutes of work and that was with no knowledge of the app. the developer should be ashamed to put out something like this. just a bad hackjob of their own software.

1.0 out of 5 stars great game but causes phone to reboot, June 6, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Plants vs. Zombies (WiFi Download Only) (App)
the game loads slowly but after it loads it runs well... for about two levels. then the whole game slows down and eventually causes the phone to reboot. not just force close... actually reboot. I'm on a Samsung Droid Charge.

An addictive game I've played and beat on the XBOX 360, now in a nice portable form! Works great on the Droid Incredible.

I'm crazy addicted to this game after playing the PC version! It won't work with my phone, but will play on my rooted nook! Gorgeous, flawless, and easy! Don't blame the game makers, they do the best they can. Blame the manufacturers who refuse to make phones with all the capabilities!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect time killer on Samsung Epic 4g (Galaxy S), May 31, 2011

What a great game to port over! Animations, sounds, everything is great.

What's with the Amazon App Store kicking me off of 4g to use WiFi? My cable modem is slower than 4g!!! (no stars off, not the game's fault!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Same awesome game, now for Android, May 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Plants vs. Zombies (WiFi Download Only) (App)
Loads about as quickly as its iOS counterparts, and game play is smooth and accurate (to desktop). I can see why some devices are unsupported, specifically in terms of processor and/or graphics module.
