Gameloft, one of the most prolific and highest quality game publishers for the Android platform is announcing today that they will be making 10 of their newest and most popular titles available for the Nexus7 in special 'enhanced' versions to take advantage of the Amazing abilities of the Tegra 3 processor.  Titles will include "The Amazing Spider-Man," "Asphalt 7: Heat," "N.O.V.A. 3: Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance","Dungeon Hunter III", "Fashion Icon", "Men In Black 3", "Shark Dash", "Oregon Trail: American Settler", "Modern Combat: Fallen Nation", and "Fantasy Town". 

For those not aware:  The Tegra 3 processor inside the Nexus 7 enables game developers to offer increased effects and graphical detail and Gameloft is only one of a number of companies that offer 'enhanced' versions of some of their games to take advantage of these abilities.  We've previously seen Madfinger Games similarly release special Tegra 3 versions of 'Shadowgun' and the upcoming 'Dead Trigger'.  We'll have gameplay video footage of the Nexus 7 optimized titles as soon as they're available.  In the meantime, here's a graphic with the 10 Tegra 3 optimized titles that Gameloft is releasing specially for the Nexus 7:
