[Q] XCOM UFO for android? - Android Apps and Games

Anyone knows anyway to play our old XCOM UFO games in an android device?
I would kill for be able to play Terror from the deep in my phone .
Thank You!

Ditto.
Loved the winmob version.
Unfortunatly most android games are lacking in depth. Need sone good TBS.

Check out xenowar on google-code-hosting. Its shaping up to be a nice clone.

WOW!!!
Xenowar looks awesome! Thta's what I was talking about. I think this is the kind of game that fits perfectly in this type of device.
Thank you so much!

Good news!
I am running the official Playstation X-COM on my 400 mhz TYTN II (Kaiser, with Froyo) using PSX4Droid.
Works great. A little slow, but playable on my old device.

First person shooter for Leo

Hey,
does anyone know whether there's a first person shooter for the HTC HD2? I've seen one once on the Iphone and I figured, if the Iphone can do it, surely the Leo can do so as well!
Or... does anyone know another really good game for the HTC HD2, i tried a couple so far, but they all were quite disappointing...
Cheers
theres call of duty and doom and whatnot, just not specifically for a hd2.
I personally am pretty fond of this game i bought called 'cops and robbers', really, all u do is press 3 (or just 1) buttons, but its nicely old school, time the presses or the cops get u, bscly.
Im also very eager for FPSEce 0.10, wich will be out soon, its a psx emulator, and 0.10 version is aimed at snapdragon&widescreen devices www.fpsece.net

Well, they all need a joystick/dpad and sometimes other buttons as well (such as Enter), so few of them are playable on HD2.

Any ideas when? I waited for 9 months with my Omnia when they said 0.10 was out and nothing got released!!
Just saw a video on youtube of new multiplayer FPS on iphone, looks like quake 3 engine.
Makes me wonder if I did the right decision by buying hd2 :-/
I can only hope that someone will give a damn about windows mobile and port some games over.
I'd like to port Zombie Mansion to the HD2. I have a win mobile version working already with improved weapons.
But I need to get proper multitouch support or it would be completely unplayable.

If you're that much into mobile gaming: yes, you made the wrong decision. The number and quality of games for WM won't improve much in the near future...(maybe that'll change with WM 7).
But I need to get proper multitouch support or it would be completely unplayable.

Sadly that's not possible right now. I'm waiting, too
i can really recommend tower defense it is quite expensive but it is a class A+ game
Does anyone know who is making games for wm 6.5...Tell them to make some 1st person shooters or third person like they do for android.If some **** samsung with 600mhz processor can play those good games then hd2 with 1ghz can do it too
They are not fps, but I enjoyed palm heroes, Viking saga,deer hunter,everquest,Final fantasy. Space trader was a laugh. I try keep fps games off my hd2. I'm too heavy fingered.

Request: Best Game(s) that take the most advantage of HD2 hardware...?

I will be getting an HD2 tomorrow (hopefully) and have been doing research about alot of different things for it... one thing is games - I have seen alot of games and none of them seem to be using the specs of the HD2 very well.... I would expect a phone like this to be able to have some very nice games, I understand it is quite new and maybe there aren't any out yet...but could you please let me know what is out there so far? I have only seen things like xtkart (I believe that is how it is spelled) and the ps1 emulator... so I was wondering what you guys have or what else is out there that is in accordance with my recommendation ?
Thanks in advance!
XTRAKT, Experiment 13 and Electopia demo are by far the best games for hd2! avatar, asphalt 4 and nfs undercover are great too!
man.. its just that i'm not interested in racing games...
i wouldn't mind some good ol tetris.. but with nice visuals that take advantage of the hd2 specs...

Shooting Game
Dear all smart guys,
I am also wondering whether we can have those shooting game.. displaying in gameloft.com..............and which can be played in our super machine HD2...
games for HD2
Search for freewarepoketpc, and look for experiment 13
Ferrari GT2 Revolution looks BOMB on HD2. MiniGolf Wacky World looks also nice
the ferrari game runs 'terribly' on the US HD2.....they should be embarrassed....constant lag and slowdown. :O(
so basically to answer your question... there are none....... yet... don't lose hope... things will turn as soon as 7 comes out
yeah im not sure there are any games that fully take advantage of the hd2 hardware.
thats not to say that there arent any good games because there are PLENTY!

On my German HD2 with stock ROM it works brilliantly without any freezes etc.
@ Topic: You have to keep in mind that it is a Windows Phone. If you wanna have a phone for playing only then you have to buy an iPhone or sth. like that. Nevertheless I got more than 20 brilliant HD2 games that brought me hours of fun during long train trips.
wow, i wonder why the one on the us hd2 runs so poorly.........it stutters sooooo badly that it's barely playable......i didn't buy this phone to play games but since they were included i certainly checked them out, that's why i'm so shocked that they included a game that runs like crap, lol, not a good advertisement!
the graphics suck on that game too, not up to the HD2 par in my opinion...the game market for this phone is disappointing! =\..
By the time Windows 7 comes out you said ? Yeah, but the HD2 would still be stuck on windows 6, remember ?....I wonder if the games will be comaptible though? or If someone will come up with a perfected windows 7 rom for the HD2 ? Or at least a perfected android rom... then maybe we will have some decent games ? Otherwise I hope the developers are working on some great games otherwise the hardware will be going to waste for the most part...
I would take a look over at pda4you.org, if i was you guys..

[Request] N64oid Performance

Im hoping that some in here with a sensation and n64oid would be able to record a video of them playing mario kart 64.
I'm curious how the sensation and the galaxy s II do compared to each other in emulator performance, and havn't found any videos or benchmarks for the emulators.
I'll be posting this in the galaxy s II forum as well.
Would love to if I could find it on the bloody market!
got a Url or Barcode for it?
froget it, app and developer have been binned off of the android market
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...nded-are-emulators-soon-to-be-banned-content/
ok but its on SlideMe but im not paying £4.00 for a test Sorry.
I haven't played Mario kart 64 yet. But majoras mask, ocarina of time, and 007 goldeneye play flawlessly if you can find a good Rom.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
mario kart 64 runs flawlessly, and looks amazing on the sensation, really vibrant colors, and the sprites really pop.
the only thing is when a new scene loads, there is a 30ms lag, then the game catches up and runs at full speed.
i have an old version of the apk (i think its 1.1, not sure tho)...i always keep my emu apks, you never know when theyre gonna get pulled from market

heres a vid of a guy showing a snowboarding game idk if this can help you.? well here it is. hope it helps. not mario kart.

Just tried out Mario kart... My audio was a little choppy but it ran perfect. A little hard for me to control though
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Yes, Mario Kart runs fluently, maybe sometimes a 30ms lag will occure, like it was said above, you know, the kind of lags that reminds playing a game on a computer and having a micro-lag when the CD loads datas, really not disturbing at all.
And for Mario Kart, you can even set frameskip to 0
Here are the games I've played and found workinf well:
Mario64
mario kart
Zelda OOT
Zelda Majora mask
Goldeneye
1080 Snowboarding
Castelvania 64
Castlevania Legacy of Darkness
Star Wars ep.1 Racer
Banjo Kazooie (really smooth!)
Carmageddon
Diddt Kong Racing
F-Zero X
harvest moon
lego racer
rampage worl tour
Starfox
WWF Wrestlemania 2000
If you guys have noticed interesting things for the dev, don't hesitate to tell me (or you can tell yourself at Fpse forum) since CrualFoxHound, N64oid tester, is present everyday at Fpse forum ^^
And don't froget v2.0.3 is available on SlideMe market
I can post one around 5pm central time if you still want but pretty much like everyone's saying it runs nice and smooth. Only occasional sound stutters for me hear and there. Let me kno if you want me to still record it later.
Next they need too add multiplayer

AH hA!
I already saw that vid, but didn't notice that he does play mario kart 64 about half way through.
looks like it runs perfectly smooth with a little bit of lag every now and then, but its barely noticeable.
good to know.
Looking at those games caused a bit of nostalgia, and made me think about how far we have really come in terms of technology...

Destroy Gunner: Awesome shooting game with ROBOTS

https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.shade.DGunsF (Free)
https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.shade.DGunsSP (Paid)
Pretty awesome game, F is kinda short since it doesn't have the same equipment system as SP, but still a great way to kill time. And before you ask, yes the ones in the link are the English versions.
No one likes a good robot shooter?
Very Nice, bought Paid Thx!
Need more maps. 2 maps for this kind of game doesn't cut it
1) downloading now
2) LOL i think i know you from irc hwz
bought and I like it, needs support for tablets, wouldn't let me download from market with nook color, but when I copy and email the apk from my phone to the nook, the game runs great

This is really a quality game, make it an online game then I'll buy the full version.

no love for the sgs 2?
Just an FYI.
Destroy Gunner SP (Paid), works awesome on the Nook Color (CM Nightly + CF 3d). I'm not sure if CF 3d is needed.
There was another user who posted that it didn't work on his Nook Color. Not sure why but I got it from the market with no problem.
Also put this on my Transformer and works as well.
The NC and Transformer play equally as well.
Highly addicting game. Great graphics.
this game totally reminds me of virutal-on, that arcade game with double joysticks...
hahaha
true, but my first reaction was "armored core for android!"
i suppose it has english text option?
Market says incompatible with my device
Motorola Defy
Android 2.3.4. Cyanogenmod RC1
any ideas?
dont say defy is too lame >.<

Nobody bought this high quality game at the new fantastic price?

Blazing Star - SNK PLAYMORE - OUT NOW!!!

Love this game, played it to death in the arcade when I was younger. Came out today. I have not played it yet so I cannot tell you if its Xperia PLAY optimized, but I am hoping that since the King of Fighters was optimized (sort of) this will be too.
ENJOY!!!!!

We spotted this earlier great game. Have tested and everything works D-pad and Fire as well as all the menus. The onscreen controls also vanish when press a hardware button. Made by the same people who did R-Type port, Metal slug port and they always seam to remember the PLAY
ARE YOU SERIOUS?!
Blazing Star is one of my favorite games ever! And it's easily the most fun sh'emup I've ever played. You have no idea how long I prayed PSP would get this game (and never did!). Now it's here with achievements?! Getting this immediately!

Awesome! Thanks!

Since no one really responded with anything back then, I might as well just come back to tell all of you on the fence of getting this, that this game is very well optimized. Good, responsive hardware controls and full-screen resolution for the XP. Plus the soundtrack is awesome! Here's a gameplay vid:

Or at least until until the $1 flex cable breaks, along with the l2/r2 buttons
Good to see that they optimised it anyway.
Great game. It's on sale on Google Play at the moment.

Still would love a version of Exceed or Touhou, but it wouldnt work well with the portrait orientation. Touch screen shooters are too hard if you have fat fingers!!!!

Mame/Neo/Cps Emulators are great but where is the challange. I like and brought these official ports (metal slug too) for 2 reasons. 1) Bluetooth multiplayer 2) a limit on credits. Where is the challange if you can keep shoving fake credits in, it makes these games too easy because you have no real death. Its like cheating and there is no point in that when you are only cheating yourself out of a good game. With metal slug on Emulator i completed in a hour (fun over). On the official port not even half way in and been playing hours worth. At least with emulators like Snes and PSX you have limits as its built in to the game (Saves states are also bad but still mean you have to get past the place your stuck on dying). I am happy to recommend these ports over the emulated way
Original MVS cartridge are 'free play' at will anyway, but you are right about arcade, nothing can beat the 1coin challenge and bt coop option is the best.
My previous bought of metal slug for android was a disapointment, few option, gallery mode, slowness this one seems better optimized. I think save state is a bless to train yourself in the hardest level without crawling again the whole intro + much more freedom to simply save your progress.
My fingers thank autofire as well. I found vsFighters a bit more difficult compare to the arcade because of the controller, xplay paddle is tiny and snk special moves can be tricky.
