3D Games for SNS: What are you playing?

Hey guys just got my first android operating phone! And just wanted to know what are some of the beat 3d games available on the android market?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

Dungeon Defenders
Need for Speed Shift
Sims 3
Angry Birds (isnt 3D but still fun)
Rocket Bunnies
Some Gameloft games aren't in the market (through their website only) there are a number of good titles there.

Xplane if you're into flight similar. Although it is priced rather high. ($9.99).

Can you confirm that Spiderman and NOVA work with the Nexus S? I don't see it in the list of phones, but I figure if I say that I have a Vibrant it'll work just the same.

Just downloaded and played dungeon defenders. What a brilliant game!

Ummm... Wreckless Racing, perhaps one of the most visually impressive 3D games on Android right now. Very polished and detailed, real life physics, interactive environment.

I would not buy any gameloft game again. I bought one of their games, and now it doesnt work anymore. I cant redownload it again because of some screw up on their end and their customer support is a joke.

Hehe....we almost need a "What are you playing?" thread for this kick ass phone.
3D game wise, I've got to agree with most of the above mentions. I grabbed most of EA's games while there were on sale for 99 cents over the holiday. NFS rocks and is most impressive. Haven't done much with the Sims yet though. Rocket Bunnies is indeed an awesome game, though it doesn't really do much with the 3D.
Dungeon Defenders looks incredible, but I hear that it's a major battery killer.

Dungeon Defenders is fun i love it, but you really need to set designated time to play it and finish all the waves, it isnt something you can just pick up for a few mins.
NFS is fun but its annoying because they havent fixed the screen going to sleep yet.

Need for Speed Shift
not working for me ._.
i recommend dungeon defenders though :'D

Anyone tried Real Football 2011?
I wanted to buy it but Gameloft doesn't allow me to. After I put in my phone number, it sent me a sms but when I click on the link, all I see on the website is just hero of sparta or something.

cuz the way gameloft does their crap, ill never buy from gameloft unless they put their games on the market
The website checks the user agent of your phone and wont let you download certain games if the phone isnt supported

Is there a way to spoof my nexus s as a galaxy s by changing the user agent?

[EMU] MAME4droid Reloaded (0.139)

Mame4droid doesnt support CPS3.
I.e I can play sf3:3rd strike on tiger and not on mame4droid.

Very cool! Wish it had Play controls!

OMG. look what i just got running. Have not tried this on play yet as using a xperia S but the main thing is the emu runs this even if this does play abit slower on this game.

Most of the games run slower, and Killer Instinct doesn't work, I get error messages no matter what.

Tiger Arcade is really a scaled down version of Final Burn, so "only" supports Capcom, Neo Geo, Cave and Toaplan rom sets.
Mame Reloaded supports the full 139 rom set and plays the Tiger Arcade roms just as fast. The catch is for the full set, newer games play slow, since the cpu of even the Tegra 3 chokes with games like Dead or Alive or Soul Caliber. I have tested those roms and they play slow on Tegra 2 and a little better on Tegra 3 (still not playable).
Simple rule, you currently need at least a laptop grade CPU to play any 3D games at playable rates. Most other games (about 90%) play GREAT!
Even a P8400 or the slowest i3 can play Dead or Alive and Soul Calieber at full FPS. Current tablet chipsets can not.
Added: Not sure how fast Mame Reloaded would be on slower chipsets, but tested fine and just as fast as Tiger Mame with Snapdragon 1.5ghz single core (View), OMAP 1.2ghz dual (Razr) and Tegra 2 & 3.
I do know that Tiger Mame and the older Mame4Droid 34 (Mame4all) played great on the Incredible.

It played real slow on the Razr, View and Thrive. All 3D games play slow, but not a surprise considering most lapstop chipsets a few years ago played them slow too.

Mame4droid suppport more games but tiger mame run faster, most of game hard to enjoy and play even 2d games on xperia play.
I think i will stick with tiger until it emulated better

I don't know what games you tried but I have more than a hundred 0.139 roms on my samsung galaxy tab 10.1 right now and they run really smooth with Mame4droid.
Just look at all the options offered by Mame4droid, you'll see Tiger Arcade really pales in comparison to it.

Same issue here.
I tried MAME4ALL, Tiger Arcade and MAME4droid.
- MAME4ALL is okay, runs well but compatibility with recent games is limited.
- MAME4droid seems to be too greedy with the Play's resources and games are generally too slow or laggy (even the old ones).
- Tiger Arcade is overall the best compromise though it lacks the ability to remove the auto framerate, which is annoying.
I'm surprise with all the positive reviews for MAME4droid on the Play. It seems to me that the xperia play is not powerful enough to run smoothly this emulator. Again, MAME4all is ok, but I had no luck with MAME4droid so far.
Do you confirm?
Anyone succeded in runing smoothly Mame4droid with an xperia Play?

I use Tiger Mame and it works incredibly well. I mostly play KOF and old shmups which sadly lose a bit of appeal when played in stretch mode (without it my eyes burn from trying to focus on something so small). With sound on games run a bit choppy on my stock r800i but with sound off everything runs perfectly and since I mostly play in the break room at work where I don't want to bother people it works out alright.
Quick question which I'm hoping is allowed but apologize if it isn't: Roms have a ton of versions, bootleg 1, 2, etc. What are the differences between these roms in most cases?
@croakerbc, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is considerably faster than the Xperia Play (which, given the forum, is the device being discussed) so obviously your results will differ from ours. From what I've seen on youtube alone I wouldn't recommend Mame4Droid Reloaded on the Play.

i just looking for fing a way to play golden axe : revenge of death
please . if anyone know that how can play it , PM me / opdate me
tghank you so much

Been using tiger mame for ages. Never had any lag and full sound/speed world awesome.. stock rom v6 supercharger and overclock to 1.2 tigermame just flies.

Modern Combat 4 - Xperia Play Optimized - officially relased

So guys, first, there is a pre-official video by Gameloft, showed on Tokyo Game Show. Don't scream about poor quality, just look it:
-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq9ta4UA-5M&feature=player_embedded
Next....It's coming this fall, so it's quite soon . BUT...Yeah, always "but" with corporations like Gameloft - in my opinion it will hit first on iOS (even if Gameloft planning to make their games available in the same time for iOS and Android), and we must wait longer, like nearly always.
And the second one....Hmmm....Maybe graphics is not so "WOOOOW!!! BATTLEFIELD 3 WITH ULTRA SETTINGS ON MY SMARTPHONE!" D), but I'm thinking if Gameloft will optimize it for Xperia Play. My opinion depends on their upcoming Wild Blood (relased some weeks ago on iOS) - if they optimize it for Play, then I'm 100% sure MC4 will be too. Sooo....We can just wait till official info appears, and game too .
PS: I always wanted BackStab 2 and promised Silent Ops (which will never appear I think), and the oldest one (not promised though) - Prince Of Persia Warrior Within (which will never appear too).
[UPDATE]: Official exclusive video appeared on G4TV. Check it out! It's high quality and contains more gameplay than before leaked from TGS video -> http://www.g4tv.com/videos/60929/modern-combat-4-x-play-trailer-exclusive/?quality=hd#video-60930
Also:
After watching new trailer I'm sure it will be kickass, like all MC was . Waiting for relase and hope for our hardcore gamers too!
[UPDATE]: Official screenshots with better quality:
Nice one - I think it had improved shadows and render compared to MC3. Except that - preety similar. Hope they won't forget about Xperia Play, maybe with not all effects on, but just medium, and with awesome controls like Dead Trigger by Madfinger or GL's NOVA 3 . Fingers crossed - we're waiting for more info!
[UPDATE]: Game leaked! It's not official in Google Play, but in my opinion there won't be any big changes, at least not for our Xperia Play gamers, cause it is fully optimized and smoothy working! Do you remember what did I tell you before relase/leak?
[UPDATE]: Game relased on Google Play, and can be found here -> C'MON!. Some guys reported, that is better than leak (I mean better performance etc.), so mission complete - we can play awesome FPS on our Plays with official support!
[UPDATE]: Fresh info - official version is great, but only for first time. Then, after you open the game again, it lags a little, and, what is very strange, when you use Play gamepad, it has microlags, if playing on-screen buttons - little lags gone. Reason? Bug in .apk - Gameloft messed something with the build (and you know that they support is not the best, so update can appear never). Fix? When you open the game make sure you have opened gamepad already and turned Wi-Fi on. Then game starts like always, but lags won't be there with open gamepad. Preety simple, huh? . Hope my suggestion help all future MC4 players .

I'm done with my Xperia Play with mobile games. Only using it for emulators until I get an S3/next Nexus. Switching to my iPad and Vita for gaming from now on.

I would love for MC4 to come out for the Xplay, but I hope they add customizable touchpad controls, like in ShadowGun, whether you would use the Joystick or SlidePad control. In MC3,nits preset to the joystick control, which I hate.
R800i. 'Nuff said.

Sooo....Update ^^.

Please be optimized....
No lag....

If the 3 above are available...

Sadly, we're talking about Gameloft here, so I'm sure it'll be buggy and laggy, like a lot of their previous titles.

But look that all MC's were very good in optimize and performance. Maybe other games not, but their one of the best series like MC is, in my opinion made very good like for Gameloft.

I strongly disagree. MC3 was unplayable for me, with constant freezing of controls. As for MC1 and/or MC2, the latest updates completely broke the controls, making it impossible to aim correctly. And the MC series aren't the only ones with bugs.

So we had different feelings - but it's doesn't matter - maybe it depends on ROM and version of MC too - the newest doesn't mean the best so...Maybe that's it.

The best tweaks I've found for running Modern Combat right... are to have no tweaks.
Seriously, I went through a whole big phase of tweaks... and all I got was a bunch of unstable beta nonsense with all kinds of "upgrades" that sacrificed things that previously worked. Went back to stock 2.3.4, debloated and everything's just... great.

It's finally here! It took almost a year but the best game of all time it's finally available on Android! Those of you who already have CT on your emulators are probably wondering why you should get this. Well, THIS IS NOT THE SNES VERSION it has all the extra dungeons and re-hauled menu from the DS version.
For those who haven't played it yet and are on the fence due to the price: this is not excitement speaking, this IS the best game of all time. So do yourself a favor and play it. $10 for over 15 hours of gametime plus great replayability is a good deal in my books.

To be honest, this is Square Enix we're talking about. I doubt we'll see a sale anytime soon. I cannot recommend this game enough for you guys. Maybe watch some gameplay videos before you decide.

Is it xperia play optimized?

Probably you are right, the price wouldn't go down for a little (long?) time, but probably I would buy it because I've liked dragon Quest and I haven't played chrono trigger only because it isn't in italian (yep, I probably can play the game in English, but in italian it is easier for me) and the ios/android version is the only one officially translated

Is this version better than emulating the original Chrono Trigger from PS1 via FPSE?

The original Chrono Trigger is on SNES not PS1! If it is not xperia play optimalised it is not worth buy. Better - buy CT on PS1 and play it using fpse or epsxe. For me (and for many People of the world) is the best jrpg of all time.

Ditto.

It would be worth the £10 if it was optimized for the play, the IOS version was slated so i'm not sure how good this one is going to be. Just emulate the SNES rom

I'd probably try it(at least it came out) but unless buttons are fixed or I get the custom button mapper working(no root) I'll probably stick to the ps1 port via psxperia. I've been reading reviews and apparently, the game doesn't fully download to full game to your phone and requires updates now and then; I guess that is to deter illegal downloading? Also if I do decided to get my phone rooted in the future, does it allow rooted phones to play or has that been blocked too as that seem to be the trend?

After playing it for 2 hours I can confirm that it works on rooted phones. Touchscreen controls are easy to get used to, not a big deal. However, the game does download files from time to time and therefore requires a constant connection to wifi or 3g. ****ty move from Square Enix but I'm not surprised.
If you are passing this one to play the emulated PS1 version, at least do it right and play the SNES one instead. The loading times for battles and menus are atrocious on the PS1 version.

Not to mention you save 500mb on sd just for slightly better music. Snes = 5mb, PSX = approx 500MB
Always thought snes was one of the best choices for emulating on Xperia play as there is no fiddling buttons around (e.g. L2,R2) it's a perfect match to our pad. Also check out SuperGNES has a great UI with cover art.

Well, okay okay, SNesoid it is! The PS1 version did not got any advantages besides the music? I played the Nintendo DS version and there were animated cutscenes in manga style...

On ps1 version there are cutscenes in anime style. But nothing special. Music is same as on snes. DS version has additional quest (as I remember).

Just dropped by to say that I finally beat my replay of this wonderful game. For those who decided to emulate you definitely missed out. The new dungeons are a very nice addition, didn't get the new ending though. Worth every damn penny.

Eh, without the XP gamepad being usable, it sounds like I'm better off sticking with my existing copy of the DS version .
Curious, has anyone tried to run the game without an active connection to either wifi or a cellular network? I'm also not a fan of apps that regularly download in the background, especially if there's the potential for it to need to do this with large files.

I remember the game downloading stuff only at 3 points: when you enter the map on 600 AD for the first time, somewhere in 2300 AD, and after entering the bridge for the 1st time in 600 AD. After that I would just start the game, hit the home button, turn off wifi/data, and keep playing without a problem. I cleared it that way without an issue.

Looks like Square Enix wants to port some mobile RPG's to PlayStation Vita and what easier way but on the PlayStation Mobile store as less to port.
What does this mean for us? Well I will tell you Xperia Play Optimized classic RPG's from the best of the best that's what.
First off is Chaos Rings which releases in Japan in July (If can read Japanese then it's time to make a Japanese PSN account) kinda hope this will be a world release and not just regional, but a start is a start and hope for more for all in the future

I really don't intend to spoil the fun here, but after having tried a few of these Chaos Rings games I can't see the appeal.
I am of the generation that enjoyed FF VIII, IX and X and also Chrono Cross (but not Trigger) and I find this series incredibly dull. Sorry, just my opinion.

Agreed I have all 3 already but the big picture is that Square Enix is on board with PSM. This means we could finally see Final Fantasy 1/2/3(NDS)/4(NDS) and chono optimized and official for our device too

That's nice - for people who live in a select few countries where Playstation Mobile is available. Where I live - plus I believe many other European countries - Sony just can't be bothered to introduce this service. Well at least we can emulate those games via ePsxe or convert them to PSXPeria.

It's out with controller support for all region's

No one will buy this? are you spoiled for choice on your 2 year+ old device? To me its great news that big games are coming to PSM as this will be the only way to get optimized games for Xperia Play in the future. Developers on Google Play will drop all 2.3 support soon with newer titles, as a small percent of people are still running old Android devices and its extra coding that can be avoided. With PSM Xperia Play optimization is included to all controller supported games as its native code in the PSM SDK so we will still be included for a while yet.
PS. I own the Google Play version from release day and i will be buying this just to play on my Tablet with Dual Shock 3 so their will be at least 1 person buying it

I am seriously considering buying it again so I can play it properly on the big screen with my OUYA.

What's the matter with my XP? I don't understand...
I bought this game on itunes years ago when its first coming, i love it so much so that i bought this again on google play years later to check if it's XPO,but it's not i was so disappointed. After one more year the XPO is coming...
Seems that you wanna me buy it for third time?
SE published this **** for three times for tricking money by unbelievable fuxking speed, the only difference is the gamepad suported, WTF?
AND it's just the first work, very very old one, if omega and 2nd released may be i will consider it for few seconds cause i havn't own them just on android yet
i think all people who loves this game has bought it years ago or android or ios, very few people get wait it for years just gamepad supported version like you or like me ,very few...
If SE has a little conscience, they won't leave the xpo version to psm till now, and if that so the porting work will be much easier.

Awesome! I only have one question. Is it totally fullscreen or will it be letterboxed?

Well the Google play versions are full screen even on my 1080p Xperia Z. I am pretty sure (98%) this will be full screen too.
I am going buy it but need to wait for payday (will confirm when do). Spent tooooo much on apps this month
Can't wait to play it with touchpads fully working
