I'd be more impressed if it was plain old GTA. imho I think changing from 2D to 3D 3rd person ruined the game :(

What?! GTA3 was utterly awesome.

Incidentally, it did the have the overhead view, not particularly usable but funny to have nonetheless.
 
Ever wanted the iPhone style interface, on an android phone?

I did for a while but couldn't find one, but on an Android Feed on Taptu on my GS2, this popped up.

P.S: Sorry for large images, they are from the application on the market so you know what it brings before you look :).

Most indispensable app for me has been any of the number of apps which use the camera flash LED as a torch. I've had this on my HTC Legend and my wife's T-Mobile Pulse Mini for a little over a year now with no signs of damage, so it seems to be safe.

Phone has to be rooted first though.

I use Lamppu (LED Torch) but there's many more now which all do the same job.

Yes, as far as I can make out you only need to be connected to the Wifi network to do this. So trot along to starbucks and have some fun :D:p

Yeah, as long as you're connected to the network it appears to work.

Does anyone know what it does? Some kind of DDOS-esque spamming of the IP you want to kill?

Pretty cool app though, could be awfully annoying in the wrong hands though!

No DDOS.

Without going all technical, it basically makes your phone act as the router/gateway. It then sends a message to other devices and fools them to disconnect when they try to get access to the Internet through your phone :)

If you're doing it at school, you can get found out though (if the admin is any good) unless you find a way of hiding your MAC address :p

It uses something called ARP according to the comments. Easy to find out the mac address of the device blocking you if your on a pc/laptop with simple line in cmd.

Fun for hotspots in cafes/McDonalds etc though :P

Installed this app earlier. Just opened it up at my Uni library and found over 90 devices... I closed the app quickly :p
