I mean where are all the games? galaxy on fire 3 looks cool but got pushed back from april to may and well may is 2/3rds the way over... Man I didn't expect games to be pumping out but this is sloooooooooooow... Galaxy on fire 2 needs to be released..
Anyone feel let down so far? And whats up with monster madness being released last month, but pulled from tegrazone and now due in june..lol is this a joke?
Last thing I'm worried about on my phone are games. That's what my Xbox 360 is for. haha
Games? Im still trying to get a handset that doesnt freeze and reboot.

lol. now that there was funny.. Kinda like the other guy commenting about using his xbox. It's like... no relevance whatsoever to your post. Just something to say "look at me! I have a comment! look at me!" lol
I've actually purchased a few of the tegra games that are out now (including backbreaker). I had backbreaker for free when they gave it away on the amazon market a while ago.. so it made sense that when I updated to the g2x.. i'd just buy the tegra version. I am a football fan after all. It all comes down to preference people. Opinions aren't law... they're opinions.
Like the OP i'm waiting anxiously for more tegra supported games.. and ESPECIALLY for GoF2. Let's be objective though.. let's remember that tegra devices and honeycomb were announced in JANUARY.. it really hasn't been that long. I think we're all used to the ultra-high pace of the mobile industry and probably expect devs to move just as fast, but they need to wait on adoption. Bear in mind there are only 2 tegra based PHONES on the market.. and the only tegra tablet on the market was the xoom.. which came out 2 months ago... we've seen lots of announcments.. but no product in dev hands.. but now that I/O has happened (chuckle) give it another few months.. we're at the tip of the spear here guys.
They seem overly expensive. Which is why they wont sell much. If they were cheaper I think people would be all over them!

agreed.. some of them are a few bucks more than they're standard variety versions... it's a premium vs regular thing I guess.
OR
Like i said.. there aren't may tegra devices and the reason the regular versions are so low is because theres a bigger market so they sell way more. maybe we'll see the prices come down as more people get tegra tablets and phones eh?
I like the pinball.
I definitely agree with the OP. I travel a lot for business and mostly international, so having something to kill time on layovers etc is priceless. So far the tegra zone games are decent at best, and when compared to iOS their pretty weak. Even gameloft games play significantly better on iOS, maybe because the game was just a crappy port. But still with our phones able to pump out 2x the fps, there's no excuse imo.
Like i said.i don't expect tons, but when galaxy on fire 2 has been it on ios for 2 years now and its being pushed back for android on a gaming cpu is crap, especially since developers are supposed to be developing for it...
So, lets hope when the dx and a few other tegra devices are released then maybe things will get rolling more... I mean 1 game came out in the month I've owned this device and one got pulled, and another got pushed back...
When we have a gaming device I expect more.the tegra should have done killer games. Honestly though nothing out in the zone at this moment is any better than gameloft... At least release galaxy on fire 2 on time ya know.. I just figured there would be a few more..
Edit: noticed my first train set was 10+ a few days ago now its 5 bucks...lol thats good.
Tegra games smedra games! ...I don't really care for the "Made for" such and such device type of games as long I get great titles that run fine on my device. Which I have yet to have an issue with the MANY pirated games I have I am not at a loss at all.
Enjoy what you have and the phone has only been out for a month.... learn to wait. Also OP....why so mad bra?

No, but the dev is a douche. He provided a new market entry and abandoned the old version of PSX4DROID. Basically he screwed everyone who bought his "old" app for $5!!! And a lot of the recent updates would be completely shoddy and break the most popular PSX games. Very, very sloppy.
Sent him a couple messages and got some cocky responses. I'm definitely venting now and sound like a douche bag myself, but when I'm not I talk eloquently, politely and describe the bugs via email instead of ranting in the Comments section. Didn't like his smug attitude one bit.
I have a Game Gripper for my Desire Z in the mail coming soon and it should be in any day. I'll purchase this app and leave a review once I have the motivation lol
Wow good point! i did see his or her's PSX4DROID then a PSX4DROID V2. Now i can say i totally understand were the hate is coming from and with good reason.
As far as performance goes: its amazing...you even have the option to enable frame skipping....
I mean, I have a 600mhz CPU and I am playing digimon world at full speed (some text is missing tough) and I can even play ridge racer which was impossible with psx4droid.
However, it sometimes randomly crashes on my phone...but since this has just been released it has great potential. Plus, the developer is very active in his forum and asks for feedback. He has already released three updates
Sent from my HTC Legend
dude this is the best playstation emulator. it has more smoother fps which is all you want really. overall a much better performance from fpse than from psx4droid in all games ive tested. (bought both versions of that lame emulator) amazing work.
was running castlevania sympthony of the night (favourite ps game) on my sgs with out any slow downs last night. keep up the good work.
I didn't see this posted yet so I figured I'd start the discussion. Order & Chaos by Gameloft has finally been released to the android market. The best way to sum up this game is that it's a nearly identical clone of World of Warcraft. Now you can bring bring a worthy MMO with you!
The game plays great on my HTC Thunderbolt. Unfortunatley the game has a built in restriction that allows the game to only be played over wifi. There is a unrestrictor app on the IOS version which allows it to be played over 3G. Any ideas on how we can get around this?

Unfortunately no matter what they do, it will be cracked unless it needs to validate a individual serial key everytime you start the game like what blizzard does. But that only stops the online play. You can still play offline without key.

The AI of the rivals in Matchplay games is really cruddy. Seldom have I seen something as exasperating as having the rival send the ball three times to the water in the same stroke.

So the biggest request I've received since I started xperiaplaygamer is a sort-by date option. Putting that system into place would be easy...hunting down release dates for 367 games, however, would be a nightmare
On an insane little whim, I decided to see what all related info I had to see if I could turn this request into a reality.
While doing so, I noticed that my Xperia Play review (from November '11) noted 173 games under Xperia Play's belt. Then I had a major "holy crap!" moment. Between then and now; not only did Xperia Play's library do more than double, it jumped 6 shy of 200 games! While these are typical numbers for the smartphone app scene, this figure is not typical for the higher tier of smartphone gaming where physical gamepads come into play. While they'd solve a ton of problems, most gamepad solutions get ignored so badly that they fall into the "Totally goddamned useless outside of emulation" pit of oblivion.
...and through some form of psychotic paradox (that I can't even make sense of), Xperia Play manages to not only have quantity, but has a breathtaking 334 out of 367 games scoring between 70%-100% (going by Google Play Store ratings, of course).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's not been a single gaming handheld released in history that lasted over a year and had positive reception on 91% of it's entire library - that in itself may be even wilder than the near 200 game growth!
Just sharing the tidbits of optimism & good news

You're right all over the place. This device just feels brand new, I mean... It replaced ALL my mobile gaming. I mean all of it. Accounting for the fact that I also love emulation... Anyway, I think it could be put actually above other portable consoles. All of this without even considering the smartphone functionalities. As soon as I heard it coming out, I knew it was gonna be mindblowing. But now this much. I mean, we will probably get Aralon. That's not something you're going to find on portable consoles so easily.

The phone might not have been as big as SE would have hoped but as a gamer , this is the greatest phone i have ever used @[email protected]
Even if i get a new smartphone , i know that i will NEVER sell my XP . Unless of course my next Smart phone is an XP 2 @[email protected]
Hardly consider it a failure , its the definition of a NICHE device and YET , its still getting tons of support from the indie devs and even big publishers like Gameloft and Rockstar. Not to mention that with GameKeyboard , the library is even bigger.

I'm trying not to accept this, but it really has. My PSP and DS are long gone, and after all that hyping up I did for the PSVita, it's been taking a backseat to my Xperia Play just because Xperia Play offers so much more! PSVita has one online shooter and one online RPG and... well... they're both fairly terrible compared to what we have on Xperia Play.

Also very true... I remember back when Aralon first got it's release and PSP owners (myself included) dropped our jaws because we not only had nothing of that caliber, but no open-world adventure RPGs whatsoever... Aralon wouldn't even be the first of that genre for Xperia Play :\
I also see myself sticking around for the long haul 'til we see something that can truly replace everything Xperia Play brings to the table.
yup im not getting new phone unless its xplay 2 or replace with xplay 4g!

I can relate to this, I left my PSP all alone since I bought the Play, I only use it to play Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, my NDS is next to my PSP without use too.
This phone is amazing, it's any gamers dream, there are so many games and I see games suitable for any person's liking. I was also looking forward to PS Vita but I believe if I buy it I'll play 2 or 3 games and leave it too, and it's kind of expensive...
Lastly, this phone was not a fail or an error. It has it's limitations but it's a very nice phone anyway! It draws attention from everyone when you slide the damn thing! I thought I wanted to trade it for a better phone and then when I got the chance I had to refused it.

Right now for the PSVITA, I only play Resistance and Mortal Kombat. That's it. It isn't expensive at all,it's just the memory card and games.

Cool. No rush
Just came across this. Sony drops over 100 PS1 titles to PS Vita . This is just one mroe thing that pisses me off. Come on Sony.... our phone came with Crash Bandicoot and you only add 8 games to the [email protected] thing in over a year and the vita which is probably sold less then our XPLAY gets over 100 games in the library...rubbish
http://www.technobuffalo.com/gaming/portable/ps-vita-adds-over-100-playstation-classics-to-library/
Following games are just some of the released titles:
Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid, and Resident Evil 2, Alundra
**** sony *************
I feel your pain, Its just another kick in the balls
I dont understand why Sony just cant release it for Vita and PLAY. I mean its all in the same source and would give them the chance to make more $$$ off these titles..... but again its just one more sucker punch to the ballsack
Desperation. PS Vita has sold abysmally. Some schmuck at Sony probably thought that having PS One exclusivity and a decent selection might force Android users to buy one and help improve the sales record

Ha!... Good thinking $ony..... I will admit the Vita is nice hardware wise but I have next to 0 interest. Still have my PSP and I have barely touched it since getting my XPLAY. But I will still keep my PSP as its got next to no value now and besides the kids like to watch movies to it, just lock the keys...
I would agree, the Vita was of no interest to me. The play is my phone/game console in one... what more could I have asked for

Bingo. The reason people buy the PLAY is so that they are not carrying around 2 devices like its 2006. I am sure if I did have it I would appreciate it for what it is and it is a nice system but I dont want to carry two devices and I dont want to carry a phone and a gamepad. The PLAYs all in one.
That Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (has Solid Snake, Sons Of The Liberty and Snake Eater), is making me look at Vita for the first time...
Seeing how their emulators were quickly exploited on Android... I can also see why...

Considering Sony's track record against piracy (removing Liunix from PS3) thats not a surprise, but its possible that they just didn't feel they were selling enough to justify any of the time needed to convert and play test them. Who knows?
Incidentally I did get a Vita a few days ago for my birthday with 3 games. I can offer the following:
1. The buttons on the Play seem a bit bigger and its a bit more comfortable to hold
2. The Vita works EXTREMELY well, the games (as you would expect for the price) are astronomically more detailed (and not just in graphics) than those on Android. Sometimes you forget how much different stuff is, but you really can't compare a game like Dead Trigger (which is fun and I love don't get me wrong) to Uncharted or Unit 13. Even Shadowgun, there is still just a big difference. That said of course the price difference justifies it.
3. The battery life BLOWS.... 2 hours of continuous gaming and its almost 2/3 dead.
The truth is I've beaten almost every game that was worth paying for (to me) on my Play, I'm sorta running short on games. Most I'm done with in a couple weeks. That said I won't stop using it and I have still been playing games I like on there but any of these comparisons in graphics on consoles that you may read about (especially with iOS) are a joke, they can't hold a candle to the Vita. Same with game depth.
Also there little nags you never deal with, like sometimes I have to reboot the Play to get the best game performance, some games crash or freeze up, and I'm always playing dig for space thanks to its 400mb of memory (stupid!).
If another Play comes out I will buy it, heck I may even buy an unlocked one when my contract is up. The Vita won't be replacing my Play, but it is a nice addition to my collection.
Scumbag Sony.
I never could buy a game because regional restrictions in my country.
Sony is badass. This proves it.

Nonsense. There is a pitiful selection of PS One classics available a year after release, with none available in many areas, so what did they expect? Even with the exploit, I bought all games of interest to me, about 8 in total, ones that I'd already bought on the ps3 psn store and despite the fact I could have just converted them myself for free. Its too easy and incredibly simplistic to just blame piracy. Precisely what does removing all PS One classics accomplish? leaving people with no other means but to pirate? makes total sense.

I bought it so I could have emulators on a handheld after my PSP broke and cuz it was the best phone I could get for £200. I carry my phone and my iPod around with me daily, sometimes a DS or 3DS too.
Yay for me.
I always knew Sony wouldn't support this phone. It was never even part of PlayStation.
I just want to "+1" to what Rogue Leader wrote. I too have both devices, PS Vita and Xplay and believe me guys, PS Vita games are an entirely different league.
I've had some fun with Xplay games and still play some, but Vita games are where it's at
I suggest everybody who did not try a Vita yet to go ahead a play it.
For me currently Wipeout 2048, Uncharted, Treasures of MOntezume Blitz and even some PSP games are an experience the likes of which I can't find on our lovely phone.
Also, WHAT THE HELL is wrong with Sony releasing 100 PSOne games on the Vita? They promised this compatibility LONG BEFORE the Vita was released FFS.
Hey sony ,
there is so many different between vita and xperia play !
*** sony !
i have psvita and play , but xperia play is always on my pocket , even on at the work time .
i don't know why Sony is still persist on its crazy idea that xplay is in competition with vita !!!!!
sony can keep both of them on top , but unfortunately , our xperia play ...
