The description on the market says:
"We now support many Android devices, including the Galaxy S2, Droid X, Xperia Play, HTC EVO 3D, Nexus S, and many more. Please note that Riptide GP is a processor intensive game, and requires a high-end smartphone or tablet for optimal performance."
Are the controls optimized for the Xperia Play or simply it runs on the device with touchscreen controls? Has anyone tried yet?

Riptide has user defined controls, you can assign any pad button to any function apart from the touchpads.
Thanks a lot, I didn't want to spend 3,99€ on a game without knowing if the controls work or not. Now I will have a try.

So, my gtablet has been all hacked and custom firmwared for well.... what day did it launch? heh...
What i am really looking for is a list of 3d games that people know to scale "well" on the gtablet...
So far i have seen most 3d android games are designed for a phone, it is almost like they need to fork the android market... or atleast include in a tablet comptable option...
So if we could get a good list of confirmed 3d games that work well on the gtablet, i would be forever... well ok 15 mins grateful.
(This MAY or MAY NOT be because i am doing some research of how to do a game RIGHT on a tablet..... heh.)
Dungeon Defenders works well. There are some overlaps in the menu system due to screen size scaling, but that's being picky. It's a pretty fun game.
the 3d version of labyrinth works great on my gtab.
Rocket Bunnies works great
Turbo fly 3d works, minus the g sensor. Other than that its nice and smooth.
Also, pretty much all the polarbit apps work. Like Reckless Racing, Raging Thunder..........

Patience my friend Once Honeycomb is released, we should see more 3D games and apps that better utilize the G Tablet's Tegra 2 and hardware acceleration capabilities.

pocket legends works fine, is fun too
Recently bought modern combat 2 from gameloft and was quite disappointed to see no external controller support.
At http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038803 , someone seemed to be able to get the xplay gameloft games to work with a desire and a wiimote.
I'm curious if this is possible as well for the g2x. I ask since I noticed that gameloft seems to make different apks for different hardware and the desire is quite similar to the play in graphics chip and processor.
Also, is there a way that I can purchase xperia play versions without having the xperia play? I couldn't figure out a way.
Rockstar Games just updated their facebook post with the release info of GTA III but unfortunately Xperia Play is not on the supported device list.
Check website post http://www.rockstargames.com/newswi...year-anniversary-edition-coming-to-mobil.html
The ONLY phone it will be fun to play on, imo. Wonder if they are having trouble with the power of our phone? If so, I wonder how much an OC'd Play would help. It seems that list is filled with very powerful single core devices, and dual core only.
All supported devices are Tegra 2 or 3, apparently.
This dual-core only **** is the most stupid crap i ever heared. This does not have better grafics that shadowgun wich runs completly lagfree on the xperia play. Also it runs on iphone 4 and the Xplay has better hardware that the iphone 4, and the ultra low power gpu in tegra 2 (yes it is called ultra low power^^) is not really better than our adreno205. But for now i dont care anyway becouse my hand is broken so i cant play (look at signature)
One more thing. Here are the orgininal recomended specs of gta3:
CPU: 800 MHz
RAM: 128 MB
GPU with 32 MB RAM
The Xperia Play passes that easily. But maybe this is not compareable to the Android Version.

For starters the iphone 4 is also.a dual core device, the gpu in the tegra II is called ultra low power because it uses less power to run (batteries) than other GPU's not because it's less powerfull.

The Iphone 4 is definetly not dualcore. It has a Singelcore Samsung CPU with 1 Ghz and a PowerVR SGX535. And about tegra 2 yes i know that is the real mening of the name but it actually is less powerfull than other gpu's Or not more powerfull than gpu's of singelcore devices if you want it that way.
have they said anything about button mapping for bluetooth pads maybe we could use chainfire 3d if tegra. Just like could use play controls on riptide before play version.

no info about pads yet. yes we could use chainfire 3d somehow but wish to play it with the gamepad of course.
iPad 2 for me then
Would prefer Chinatown Wars than III as it was far superior IMO. Confident XP will be on the next devices released although R* haven't expressed much support for the play yet. Have sent them tonnes of tweets asking for Chinatown Wars!
I can't believe they added the iPhone 4 to the list but not the Xperia Play, a phone that can easily keep up to the iPhone.
Seriously, what were they thinking???

This must be a joke? CHINATOWN WARS is probably the worst GTA game of all time.
Please tell me you were joking.

Are You joking? Chinatown Wars is awesome, i played it on the nintendo ds and i loved it. Since the iphone has GTA Chinatown wars i think it could be ported if rockstar would listen to us...
Been looking forward to this.
i wonder when and which version
http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/10/15/grand-theft-auto-heading-to-xperia-play/
As a former owner of an iPod, iPhone and iPad, I fear the game will seriously blow on the small-screen iDevices.
Seriously, 3.5-inch screen + touch-screen controls and your fingers blocking one third of the screen? What a pleasurable experience... NOT.
I would like to try the iPad version though, the on-screen controls are not that much a problem there because of the big screen. Anyway, I suspect they WILL port the game to Xperia Play sooner or later, I mean why not when the device is MADE to play these kinds of games? Some graphical compromises will probably have to be made though.
This is such a pain! :/ Hoping someone will upload an apk somewhere, I reckon Rockstar have lost alot of money here. If the iPhone 4 can run it the PLAY can easily.
The PLAY has so much potential but it seems to be being mostly ignored by major developers >.> I reckon Sony will bring out a dual-core version soon.
Oh, and hello xda-developers.

There has been absolutely nothing to indicate they will.
EA has been putting out exclusive titles for the Play (and giving them away for free), There are other devs that have Play exclusives as well. Its not being ignored at all.
Its ONE game... bfd....
I believe Rockstar said somehwere that it is not the final list of the phones.
The title of this thread and the article and link I am posting are not mine, just saw this on Engadget and wanted to share. Here is the info.

Have a bad English - does this mean that we can play psp games on our play in the future?!

Only those of which Sony port over, I seriously doubt they will be emulated.
I really wanna get excited but I can`t, Sony have spoon fed us mostly rubbish in the PSOne department, initial thoughts from what are suggested is that it is more of the same for PSP.
I want Sony to prove me wrong on this soon, but we will see
Hope they port Need for Speed Underground Rivals *-* or FreeRunning
Hey...First game they oblige to port is the PATAPON series!!!
then all the others!!!
PSP ports are already here
Japans PS Store app has
QRuTon lite (Sony Tablets)
Piyotama lite (Sony Tablets)
Ape Escape Academy (Sony Tablets)
Loco Roco: Midnight Carnival (Xperia Play)
Also the US Sony Tablet S comes preloaded with Pinball Hereos, which was a PSP game originally. It's touchscreen, no on-screen buttons needed.
QRuTon lite (Sony Tablets)
Piyotama lite (Sony Tablets)
Ape Escape Academy (Sony Tablets)
These games will be available only on the Sony Tablets? Why? =/
I'm guessing because the XP doesn't have the necessary horsepower. The Sony tablet has double the cores and double the RAM.
If it shouldn't be up to horsepower because the PSP only had a 300 MHz processor the xperia play has 3x that

Locoroco looks like an emulator: it is a bit laggy and has a menu to quit that looks similar to psxperia.

It's a port. there's no way in hell that the play can emulate psp games
If it was Emulated I dougbt Sound would work and Image would be choppy framrate would be like 2 and Port's are made to suit the device specs not to be Emulated.
Emulation can only be done on a Device With x6 power of the emulated machine
When it comes to Syphon Filter Dark Mirror, I certainly hope that it's a slightly superior port in terms of visuals. Perhaps something along the lines of the PS2 counterpart that had better lighting, textures, and shadows, but without the gimped censorship (wishful thinking).
you know what would be awesome?
if you could play the games that are ported to xperia play again people using psp

If you have a GBA and a Linker, try this emulator please. You'll be amazed and maybe will you change your x6 rule:

If it isn' little big planet, it ain't anything!
i think note's processor should have the ability to play tegra games, am i right?
what should we do to be able to play them?
It's not a tegra device, so no. I've attempted to run several tegra only games using chainfire 3d, but it really just doesn't work. I've gotten the mass effect 3 wallpaper and dark meadow to work. Which is all limited to the Note 10.1, because I haven't been able to make ANYTHING work on my Galaxy S3. Just attempted Horn which is tegra 2 and 3, and it closes out before anything happens. If you want to play tegra only games, you'll want a tegra device. Or you can do what I do and make angry faces for nvidia causing a divide in the market, developers allowing it to happen by making tegra only games, and the consumers who happily support it. >.>
Some games like Dead Trigger can be hacked to enable Tegra3-only Ultra High graphics details with a simple file edit. I can confirm this works on my GN 10.1 and it's actually more stable and smoother than Tegra3 on my Nexus 7.
