This Week in the Life of DROID: 8/10/2012

This week marked a fun time for Android gamers, as the OUYA gaming system went up for pre-order and multiple upcoming game trailers were released. On top of the games, the Galaxy S3 and the iPhone 4S went though the most scientific scratch test to date and we also began our new Android Beginners’ Guide for those who are just making their way over to the Android platform.

Here are the week’s highlights if you missed any of them.

• Pre-orders for the OUYA gaming console are up!
• The Big Four along with Google and ISIS create mobile payments committee.
• Globally roam with your SGSIII using a bit of hackery.
• New root tool released for the Galaxy SIII.

• Jelly Bean will soon be ready for Verizon XOOM owners.
