    This is going to sound a little odd but if anyone who has this tablet and plays 'The Simpsons Tapped Out', Can you report on how well it runs on it?

    I have the Nvidia shield tablet and to my knowledge it's very similar in terms of hardware, however the game just grinds to a halt within a few minutes of playing.. like it runs out of ram or something. Was thinking of going to the Nexus but would have to know if the beefed up cpu and extra ram sort the issue or not first.

    Never played it but in case nobody else has I'll download it tomorrow and give it a go to see.

    any light bleed on your tablet Pat?

    Thank!

    It starts out fine but the bigger your town gets the faster it locks up and the only way back is a restart of the tablet. .. Thinking about it you may be playing a while before you have a sizeable town... I know its not CPU being under powered as its well up there but I do think its ram related as the shield has only 2GGB. Funny that its a 'gaming' tablet ...

    Have you checked out any Nvidia forums as no way should you be having issues like that on such monster hardware. I'm running a maxed out 6250+ item town on a Samsung tab pro and it's only slowed down a tiny bit since I'v started playing that game.

    Yep I'm on my 2nd shield now and it's still the same. I get about 5 mins of tapping houses but then it stutters and if I keep going without restarting it will freze the tablet. If I visit any towns it will freze by the 2nd town.

    If the nexus c does better then I would get it.

    Played for about an hour there, had around 15 buildings and roads etc, visited other town, but not even a hint of a slow down.

    Thanks for your reply. Will be adding this to my list I think!
