Is it me or are all first person shooters lag big time on the charge???

How about elaborating on that a bit?
What specific games are you trying to play? Are you using Tegrak and playing games that were designed for a specific chipset?
There are so many factors involved in gaming, that just a blanket "Gaming sucks" post serves nothing but ****ting up the forum.
They lag for me at 1.3ghz and voodoo but not as much as stock.

Perhaps it's because there are fps games made for phones. Sheesh.

LOL, I was wondering the same thing........

Even so, there are some pretty heavy-duty 3D games on the market that are not FPSes. I've played Need For Speed: Shift, and the drifting one that was free on Amazon this week with 0 issues. Smooth animations and nice high framerates with no problems at all.
I'm guessing OP is trying to play something not built for MSM/Snapdragon/hummingbird using Tegrak.
Yea my guess is its not optimized very well. From my understanding our graphics chip is on par with the rest of the phones out there.

Nope, that's not true. I can say that for any single core phones, Charge's GPU is one of the best, if not the best.

I can't imagine trying to play a fps on a phone anyway, but Need For Speed shift plays perfectly on mine running the new 2.3.6 and imoseyon 4 kernel/fuju tweaks etc.
I am getting around 2300 in quadrant also.

I've heard there is a good one. Where is it and what is it called?
There was one but it was taken off the market. It was called n64oid. It was taken off due too bugs and complaints , Mario 64 and zelda ran smooth as the real thing for me
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Yep, N64oid... He was taken off the market, but will come back, as stated by the creator of the app
I have it and it is working just fine for me, if you want unlimited free Apps then go to applanet.net on your phone and download it from there

In my opinion... Fpse is the best PSX emulator. It is much faster than psx4droid.
Here is the link for the n64 emulator and as for the Roms, I would recommend rom buddy.

Yeah, I agree with you there. FPSe is way better than PSX4Droid or whatever it's called, but it's not as well known. But schtrucks, the creator, has been developing FPSeCE, the Windows Mobile version, for many years, and he just released FPSe, the android version recently, but it's already as good and advanced as the winmo version because he already knew what to optimize from the years of working on FPSeCE.
gahh tried this on my HD2 and it's lagging like crazy.
haha, what beast of a phone can actually play n64 games?

Many phones can - (the ones with 1Ghz+). It plays fine on phones like google nexus s and other 1Ghz+ phones.
Slightly laggy on a galaxy s. Playable, but you will hear the music skip frequently. I hardly notice any lag at OC 1.2ghz
I have had fairly good success running N64oid on a CM7 Nook Color OC'd to 1.2ghz. Can't give you a frame rate but Goldeneye, Starfox and Mario 64 all run smooth enough. (Sometimes it lags during cut scenes). I've also tried Perfect Dark and Rogue Squadron, but those won't even open on the newest version.
The Nook hardware is hardly latest generation. I would probably compare it to the original Droid.
I have a vibrant and it works flawlessly with no lag at all

Runs perfectly for me. I even placed a ton of plants to try get it to slow down, but never did. Starting from the back, I had the same plant running from top to bottom. Sun flower, sun flower, cabbagepult, kernel pult, star, star, star. Zero slowing down.
Must be the phone then out lags on all gameso that require to much movement on the screen

Although possible, its very unlikely this is the problem, since most custom roms run at least as well as stock, while most run better then stock.
I haven't played that game, but my Angry Birds has TERRIBLE lag... I'm running Humble 1.6...
I'm looking at one of these GB ROMs, so will see how Angry Birds reacts.

It did when it was released at least (Gameloft tends to **** up big time in updates) but I've heard nothing but negative things regarding the game.
Btw, has anyone played Super Dynamite Fishing? It looks pretty funny and claims to be Play optimized.

Does Max Payne still use both analogs for the camera? That's how it was in version 1.0 and I refunded to go back to 9mm.

Really? It bugged the **** out of me to be honest. The touch pad controls were way too jumpy to get a good shot off and I've only been able to play with auto-aim enabled (not why I bought a gaming phone)
Nova 3 also had abysmal touch pad control and required auto-aim IMO whereas Nova 2 got it perfect (as perfect as touch pad will ever be for me, I favor analog style).
Really? It bugged the **** out of me to be honest. The touch pad controls were way too jumpy to get a good shot off and I've only been able to play with auto-aim enabled (not why I bought a gaming phone).
I must add I've never expected XP's touchpads to be a substitute for real joysticks... IMO they work just OK in some games, and very poorly in other games.
I can live with that, but there is other thing that bugs me.. maybe it's for another thread but... I find Max Payne a shockingly disappointing game. I'm just at the beginning but...it's the whole game like this? Move from room to room, shoot some bad guys, advance the story a little bit, move to another room. Gosh this is boring. I will admit this is my first experience ever with the franchise so I did not know what exactly to expect. Bought it basically on hype and because it's made by R*, who made my beloved GTA 3.
Also how long is it? I'm not sure I won't be bored to tears mid-way although with these kinds of games (kinda movie-like experiences) I usually try to persevere and finish them. Sorry for derailing the thread.
Oh its completely about the story, the gameplay doesn't hold up particularly well and the concept of the game has been expanded upon so much over the years that its almost not worth a retread unless you are compelled to for nostalgia's sake. Max Payne 2 is actually a pretty great game even by today's standards but the first game feels very very old.

Ugh... thanks for that. Guess I still got 9mm with better graphics, better controls and online play... so I don't really have to be disappointed.
...at any rate, Gangstar Rio is actually kinda dope! Same for Virtua Tennis. I really want NOVA 3, but I'm debating whether I wanna put up with any more of Gameloft hogging space off our phones as "data".
I bought NOVA without realising it takes up 17mb data. I cant even play these games really now. I think I'm gonna go ahead and root one day

Using ZergRush method, it will either work and root, or won't. In doing so, data, contacts and anything else won't be affected either way.
Root gives you the power to knacker your phone but if you're not an idiot and don't go deleting important system processes, you're safe.

When will people learn that ANY developer making anything on Android is a pain in the ass for them. Yes iOS gets more updates but that's because they are developing for a very small number of phones. Anyone got a count of the total number of Android phones, me thinks it might be a f'in lot!
1.8 GB? Is it really that great?

I can deal with them releasing the games waaaay latter than iOS even if its dumb... but a quick glance at their facebook page, they have deals on games, majority of the time almost newly released, whereas nothing for android.

Yeah...bought and refunded...Didn't seem worth the $0.25 for the size and gameplay.
I got stuck with the purchase, didn't play it with enough time to see how not worth the 25cents it was.
Maybe when playing it on a tablet it'll be better. But it feels so cluttered too Mich on screen, camera right behind batman.

More than worth it!
Excellent graphics, sound, voice acting and controls. High resolution textures take up a lot of space but definitely worth it. Would like to see more variety in combat. $0.25 is a must buy, even to just show off the graphics.
Use the six axis app and create a touch profile. I use it for almost all my games on my galaxy tab.

Hey guys heres a new way to benchmark your device's power, I would say CPU and GPU power...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epicgames.EpicCitadel
just released by Epic Games using Unreal Technology
Download and go to "More" then Benchmark.
I would say it looks similar to the way to Benchmark PCs...
In the result it will give the. Average FPS,
and what quality it was performed on...
I know benchmarks are not Accurate but meh...
numbers... all about numbers...
thanks for the link. unreal tournament GOTY has always been one of my favorite LAN party games.
