Oops I first put this in general, but it seems more appropriate here:
Quake 3 for Xperia Play
A version of Kwaak3 specifically for Xperia Play phones has been released on the Android Market!!!
This means that we can play games like Quake 3 and Open arena on our devices!
It's called Zeus Arena, it doesn't show up on the launcher atm but you can find it on the android market!
Zeus Arena now shows up on the list of xperia play optmizied games (accessed through the launcher using the little android market button). It hadn't done this for me until yesterday, how about anybody else?
have anyone tested it?
just got it to work on my play. It plays really good and it's smooth and has great graphics! And the touch pads works really good to. My new favorite fps game on play.
now, apparently, Quake 3 isn't the only game that works with Zeus Arena, does someone knows which game does?

It may work with other games based on the quake 3 engine.

I wonder if it would work with Wolfenstein:Enemy Territory... That was my favorite Q3 engined game.

Please...try to find some mods that work with zeus arena. I don't want to play a multiplayer competitive FPS on my phone....a single player experience would be perfect on this engine!
I have done this, but it doesn't seem to work, I put the correct files on the sd card, and downloaded and installed the app from the market, but yet, when i click run the game it just flicks back to the menu, same with when i click run benchmark, nothing happens...

I believe you can you manually change or add it in your Q3 cfg file.
Something like:
seta com_hunkMegs "xxx"

Angry Birds is a staple for most people. I am kinda addicted to Alchemy now.
Pocket legends is very good on a bigger screen which makes it perfect for our tablet.
does anyone know if doodle jump or zenonia works?
Raging Thunder 2, a racing game runs pretty well too.
Air Hockey:EM is nice on the large screen. There's actually enough room for 2 players.
Minor lag, occasional stuttering, but very playable. With the NVidia tweeks, it should be great.

Doodle Jump has the 90 degree accelerometer issue... so it's a no go on that one for now. Though if you do try to play it, it's surprising how far you can make it last while the cow jumps sideways.

I downloaded right from the devs site and installed using root explorer without issue.........
I have Pocket Legends loaded, but it closes immediately on launch - no FC error, no nothing, just as quick screen flash. But considering gaming is low on my priority list, I'm generally happy. I just want to figure out what's gone wrong.

I have the APK it just says "install failed" I thought it had something to do with my rom so i tryed cyanogenmod out and that fixed it. now I cant find untra keyboard in the market. I think someone who is smarter than me should start an ultimate thread on fixing market issuses. Im so confused how different roms can change what access to the market you have.

Try "about:debug" in the browser (without the quotes), press Go. No page will load, but you'll get extra settings in the Settings Menu. Change useragent to Android.

anyone else have it freeze when you try to press the check mark to exit the game?
Thanks for the heads up!
Selected the Desire option and worked for me. I'm using evil's sense rom.
Anyone else know why the game needs permission to EDIT/READ your SMS'?
Really seemed dodgy at the installation screen.
Played for a bit last night after a nice discussion with ebay and their great systems, but that is another issue heh...
This game is pretty neat for a free game. The game play is pretty good, controls are similar to the ipod/touch controls on the games there.
Kind of funny tho, gameloft tweeted about the free game and when I initially went to download from gameloft.com on the phone, it cost 4.99. I retweeted to them and they said N1's aren't supported/available. I thanked them for the info and went online via PC and downloaded the desire version and had the link sent to me via text, and viola, game on .
For those of you who got the game from GameLoft. I'd be wary.
The installation permission requires that you allow it to edit/read your sms'.
Wth does a game need to edit or read my sms' for? I've got like 110 apps installed and none of 'em require this permission.

thnx for the info about modern combat 2
i couldnt get it to work for days
so why can u launch it that way then and not normal?
I purchased Modern Combat 2 and then needed to redownload it.
It was removed from the market so I called Gameloft and they gave me Backstab. I just tried it and it worked for me.
You should also get Spiderman. It is awesome.
The same thing happens to me with BackStab HD.
finally got Backstab, the only problem i have with it is that it makes me watch the startup video each time, like i cant skip it. pressing circle just pauses it and brings me back to homescreen then it continues when i launch the game again.
annoying, putting me off playing it lol.

Instead of skipping I tried watching it and it still closed after the video was done?
To skip it you need to tap on the screen then a little "forward" button comes up. then click that

I have tried everything in this thread and it still closes. I even watched the whole video when it is done it just closes.
I have got into the same issue as you with backstab.
I read somewhere that this problem may be the activation of the game. For the activation mechanism you must have an Internet connection on your mobilephone at the first start of the game.
I first started the game without an internet connection, so i had the same problem as you. The only thing I could do, was to reinstall backstab and to redownload the SD data. Then I started the game with an Internet connection. After the skip or end of the video, I had to wait 10 seconds before the progress bar appears.
This solved that issue for me.

Hmm I see it as well it is in the xperia play app/ game launcher.
I know this is a really old thread, but i didnt want to open a new one just for this.
I bought backstab from gameloft and when i opened it, it came up with a message saying "this game is incompatible with your device. Please request a refund"?
Why am i getting this, is anybody else getting this?
I have a R800i on 2.3.4 in the UK
Can anybody help?
Thanks

What version you use? Try older version if you can find or have your device using custom kernel.
Hi i just want to confirm quake 3 for xperia play is awesome and its on the market called zues arena download it now you must own a copy of the original data files
Video Demo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYYM_26Qa44
Download from market
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.zeus.arena
Installation
Download the zues arena.apk from the market section and install it on your phone. (Note you need at least Android 1.6)
Create a directory quake3 in the root of your sdcard and also create a baseq3 directory inside it.
Copy pak0.pk3 of your Quake3 CD (or from the demo) to the quake3/baseq3 directory.
Download the Quake3 1.32 point release and copy pak1-pak8.pk3 to quake3/
Start the game here is a added, Tip i downloaded the (xcsv_bq3hi-res.pk3) and dropped it in the baseq3 folder i can confirm hires actually works great for quake 3 on play.
Very nice, though I don't think I'd ever play Q3A on a controller theme. KB&M is the best way to play FPSs.

I've just this week gone and installed Zeus Area, however making use of the open arena .paks, the game runs excellently with a few tweaks to the default settings which allows for good frames per second on the larger maps. I've got all the Gameloft FPS's and don't think that the enjoyment of playing all of them put together is even close to how amazing the controls work on Zeus Arena.
Best game on Xperia Play.

This TRICK is not only for LG P500 but for ALL ARMv6 DEVICES !!!
before you install any Gameloft HD Games' go to system/ mount as R/W look for build.prop EDIT.
look for this line below.. (it depends on your device)
ro.product.model=LG-P500
ro.product.manufacturer=LGE
change it to.. .
ro.product.model=HTC-Desire
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
save and reboot.. .
now install the game put the cache file to the right directory gameloft/games
• highly recommended to get the SD CACHE for ARMv6 (HVGA) instead of letting the game download the cache needed (After legally purchasing the game)
• just make sure that you downloaded the right APK which is for ARMv6 (HVGA Screen) not for TEGRA2* NVIDIA* PowerVR* ADRENO* Etc.. .
• •PLEASE POST A COMMENT IF THIS METHOD IS WORKING ON YOUR SIDE OR NOT • •
-------------------------------------------------------------------PROOF THAT IT WORKS !!!

I'd like to know that aswell.
Sorry, but first - Desire is Armv7, second - it's WVGA. This means that even if the game installs it won't run properly.
There is a site where many games are being ported for Optimus One and similar devices. I can't name it (Forum rules), but i'll give you a hint - it is russian.
games like NOVA2' Eternal Legacy' Sandstorm' Gangstar WestCoast' The Settlers and other HD Games .. .
yeah i know that Desire is ARMv7 but the reason why you have to edit the build.prop is to FOOL the installer (APK) to run the game
anyway' im not pushing everyone to do this' im just sharing it
The game may install but it simply won't run. Or if it runs it will download WVGA game data instead of HVGA....
Try it for yourself.

I was tired of finding modded games for p500 !
Games like avatar, realfootball 11 work hassle free
Previously i used to use chainfire 3d with the PowerVR plugins in order to play these games cause they do NOT seem to fit our screen.
Now all we need is a multitouch fix and none of us need to shell an extra 10k INR for another High End phone.
Cheers Bro.

Okay, I appologise, but this only skips device checking, so you still need the right cache and cannot play ARMv7 ONLY games (Newest games, like Asphalt 6). All I said is that ARMv7 ONLY games still won't run and games will still download WVGA Caches. I don't mean to be rude, but you've got me wrong. Doesn't matter. I don't want to argue with you. So I appologise again and give you a thanks.
