Phones like the N82, N95, N95 8GB or also E90 are running with the great CPU Texas Instruments OMAP 2420. This CPU has an integrated 3D accelerator which can execute highly expensive graphical operations.
This topic is especially interesting considering the thing that the phones mentioned ahead are all real power phones being able to display very impressive graphics. That is actually the perfect condition for the new N-Gage platform to create games in an optical dimension never seen before on a mobile handset.
But because Nokia decided to make the gaming platform also available for low-performance phones like the N81 and N73, both running with a non 3D accelerated CPU, all games that are currently available don’t use the possibility of 3D acceleration. That’s why all the games look much worse than they could do.
I found a nice video on YouTube showing the differences between a phone with 3D acceleration (N95) and a non accelerated one (N81).
The video shows a 3D demo running on both phones. A large speed difference is clearly recognizable: the N95 displays the demo smoothly, the N81 in contrast with regular and noticeable lags.
This video is just one more prove about how an accelerated phone is so much more capable in displaying 3D content. I really hope Nokia will publish a version of N-Gage games like “ONE” which uses the 3D accelerator after a while. (They do exist, there are videos!).
At the moment they are still trying to make an N81 as attractive as possible, it’s clear that an attraction to buy it would be even smaller with these much better looking game versions.
