I kid you not, I’m shaking my head as I type these words. You guessed it, Apple is at it again, making the world a better place one lawsuit at a time. The Samsung Galaxy S III has become Apple’s next target, which makes sense, considering it’ll most certainly propel Android’s market share even higher (if that’s possible).

You may remember the brief delay HTC devices suffered after being held up at Customs thanks to an investigation into whether or not HTC had was in violation of a patent infringement ruling Apple won against them back in December.

It’s a real testament to how much mobile gaming has evolved and how ignoring it is simply foolish. One company at the forefront of mobile gaming is NVIDIA, who just happened to have a slew of new games up their sleeves. To demo the power of their Tegra 3 chipset and the evolution of console quality gaming on mobile devices, NVIDIA gave us a sneak peek at what they have lined up for the near future.
