So, I have a Nexus 7 and I don't use it much... got it a few months back.
Found something I'm enjoying, though. I've installed some games and have been having fun using my wired xbox controller on it.
I purchased Max Payne (hadn't played the original in years) and was messing with that a bit, too.
It is not rooted.
I wanted some advice from anyone who can give it:
- If I root it in order to be able to use a wireless PS3 controller via bluetooth, does that enable me to be using a controller *and* charging the tablet at once?
- If I got some sort of OTG cable splitter would THAT allow me to use a wired controller and charge the Nexus 7 at the same time?
- What are some other games I could get going on it? I like playing old console games from my youth, but what about like... Half-Life? Unreal 1? Doom 1+2 (with mouselook via the controller?) any of this possible?
