Any news on these games. I know the Desert Wind was pretty hyped for our phone but there has not been any news in almost 6 months on any of those games. Out of all those Desert Winds was looking to be my favorite, it was even being co-developed I think by the makers of the SnapDragon GPU.......
Isnt Desert Winds only a tech demo to show the power of adreno GPUs?
Desert winds is out next year, and its an xperia play exclusive. Never heard of the other two lol

Icebreaker was out since July.
Icebreaker was in the 10p sale last week...
For some reason Desert Winds was supposed to be 4th Quarter 2011... But obviously they have changed the date.
They will come when Vita is out and the Suite is up and running. Maximise sales.

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?
Riptide hd just came out and its pretty fun
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Riptide is sick and I like being able to open tegra zone and find all the nvidia specific apps.
So far I have took the refund on every single game I have downloaded from tegra zone. Really the only game that looks like a real winner is Galaxy on Fire as someone mentioned before.

Riptide GP is now the best game for the Android platform. Check it out. Download didn't take too long so you can refund if you need, unlike that damn bang bang game.
Probably US only and for a short time everything Gameloft is 99 cents

Hmm what should I pick up next...... I'm still sitting on Eternal Legacy, downloaded it and havent even played it yet. Still finishing Assasins Creed and just started Modern Combat 2
Your link works in Canada too (over wifi). Bought them all at earlier promotions in the uk but 99 cents would beat our promotions. Wish they more games even so I have not played most of the already purchased.

Gameloft is pretty lame tbh.
I have bought my last titles from them forever.
They shamelessly rip off better games that you probably would have more fun playing the original on an emulator.
I was playing Sacred Odyssey thinking it was original... Had never played Zelda:Orcania of Time. Now i am playing it on N64oid and I am like "WTF Gameloft you cheap c%*$".
Sacred Odyssey - 1Gig
Zelda - 25mb
The funny thing is the 25mb game is better than the 1 Gig rip off.

Minecraft's not from gameloft..
Also, link shows me 4.99 USD.. Im in SG.
Promo is not available in my country also, it is still 2.99$.
Anyway some Gameloft games had an issue esp the controls in MC2 and splinter cell conviction..
I really wan't to play that splinter cell, but the i'm always having a hard time using the controls, the sensitivity is too fast when using the right touchpad and there's no option to decrease it..
Not to mention the bug riddled Backstab.
Really have lost faith in this developer.

Actually Gameloft only charges $5 max while Zelda cost me $70 back in the days.
Even at $5 I think the games are worth it
I agree %110 with previous poster. Gameloft's re-makes of some classic titles is pretty shameless. I give them credit for being one the first to bring these genres to android masses.
That said, Xperia play owners should expect to pay a lot less for gameloft titles than some of the better titles in the same genre. I just finished battlefield 2. That games was done really well. The developer had the time to make it right. The controls are so fluid...man is was great. In contrast, play black pegasus 2, and your rubbing the controls constantly. This seems to be there method of there control skeme. Even in splinter cell conviction, as much as I would like to continue trying to play it, I cant stand the controls. EA's games of much higher production quality imho. I have been playing dead space and once again intuative controls.
Graphically the games seem to be somewhat sub-par by comparison to some of the EA releases. I would not have paid for asphalt before nfs but I digress. So 99 cents ain't to shabby. Fair exchage is not a robbery, right.

Getting ALL of these.
Sometimes I'm thinking too not to buy again from this publisher, but still I continue buying their games. Last night I even bought their UNO game thinking that I can play poker, or pusoy, or tong-its on that, haha.. I just played it once gets bored coz I don't understand what am I doing while playing that..
I really hope that they will fix the controls of splinter cell.

Gameloft needs to get on the EA Store... purchase the Xperia PLAY version of Dead Space... play it extensively... then revise EVERY ONE of their shooters until the aiming controls work JUST like that. Unless they issued a new update that made things awesome, I remember Modern Combat 2 having controls that were poor, but doable... then they issued an update that made already sub-par controls into something that was simply IMPOSSIBLE to use.
The version of BIA2 I played was the worst of them all though... for some reason, trying to aim would automatically make me fire, and all kinds of things were just... ugh... Iuno why, but I bought that too... and I guess I'll see soon enough if it's been fixed.
(If nothing else... I get the strangest nerdy pleasure from seeing my list of Xperia PLAY games in the Launcher growing)
I got
Nova 2
Eternal Legacy
Star Front Collision
Uno
Backstab
Rainbow Six
Brothers in Arms 2
Assassins Creed

I would happily pay PSP prices for games like Zelda if they were available.
I am not happy paying 9NZD for a game that doesn't function properly and is filled with bugs.
May look nice and all, but with their "style of content" ethos they are pretty much making mass turds of bloatware games that lack two of the major ingredients of making a game enjoyable.
I have a long list of things I could buy for $9NZ, like the Baldur's Gate 1+ 2, a PS2 platinum title, PSP platinum title and Minecraft Pocket.
They can't even take time out of their day to come up some original content so these games ain't even worth 20cents tbh.
Tried to get the games and it would not let me. Error after I entered all my info. I'm in Los Angeles it will work but at 4.99. Wishful thinking damn and I was going to get everything too.

Did you select the R800x from the drop down and scan the QR code? Thats the only way to get that price otherwise you get hit for full price if you try and go through their wapshop.gameloft.com
As for everyone's criticism, I tend to agree in a way. I own a few of their games and yes they do rip off other franchises (ex Star Battalion is a huge ripoff of the story of Star Wars), but the production values in the games are decent. That said they are like just 1 notch below ready. Theres lots of little glitches in Assassins Creed that are a little annoying, and yeah the MC2 controls do suck pretty bad, Apshalt 6 has a few glitches as well. They feel like beta releases, almost ready for prime time but missing the polish and final fixes. This is why I wouldn't pay $5-$7 bucks for these games. But they continuously run sales like almost every week with either buy 1 get 1 free, or 99 cent games, if you're patient you can get any game of theirs you want for a buck. I've spent a total of $2.97 with them and have 3 of their games. While not perfect, at that price they are good enough.

We got 8 more days to keep checking. I keep seeing new 1's every few hours, the 1's that were already 0.10 cents went back up to original price. All I can say is keep checking every few hours and be QUICK!
Simply buy, and then think. At a $ a day for 10 apps, its not something you would regret buying.
And I am esp in love with fruit ninja! I feel so sorry I realized about this only y'day and missed out on the asphalt 6 on day 1.

Happens when the date is up, and they are updating market with a new set of apps. I faced the same issue for Asphalt 6 HD. After some time I found a new set of 10 apps.

Network congestion ftw
I dont know if its XPERIA PLAY OPTIMIZED
Its available for 4usd (half price) , looks a bit different than the other Kemco games. It doesnt say anywhere that its optimized
Thanks to www.droidgamers.com for the news
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kemco.wws.eofa
It IS Xperia Play Optimized. Does not show up in the launcher though.
I definitely appreciate all the high-scoring retro-new-school blend RPGs that Kemco's droppin' on us... but hot damn! - I'm just now beating Dark Gate, and barely scratched the surface of Knight of the Earthends... and with the holidays getting closer and closer, we have less delay before Symphony of Origin hits.
Just bought it. Still working on Knightend. And still have as of yet really gotten into dark gate yet. Going to be a good ride before I get caught up. Thank you drivenby and kemco
