[Q] Xbox and ps2 emulators

Hey, I was wondering if this phone will be able to run these emulators. I think it would be awesome to have halo on my phone.

You're ignoring one important aspect; file sizes.
Spec-wise, I think most dual-core Droids can.
But, the both XBOX and PS2 use a DVD for their games, which means the game can easily exceed 2 Gigs.

Not really. Because you need a high speed SD Card to do the job.
(A Class10 can barely do the job)

Hardware yes
Software i think no/yes
This means our hardware is good enough but i think with Android an so on its not strong enough any more ;-)

If the app its well coded it won't matter what's what speed the SD card is it's not a disc that needs to keep scanning and reading.

Hmm, so it seems that the only argument against second Gen emulators is the sd card speed. But is the hardware really powerful enough too handle it?
Also I read something about software, could the current android software really prevent an emulator off this nature from happening?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I haven't checked in a while, but is there even an Xbox emulator on PCs? From what I remember, there was at most a halo port that could only play the first level. Poorly.
There is a good open source PS2 emulator though, so maybe we'll see it coming to Android eventually. If the hardware really can handle it.

[App] Dead Space Android Game

This is getting really really and more really F'n amazing! PC games are completely going Fully Mobile. I haven't purchased the app yet, was curious if anyones phone runs it without any problems.

It will say that regardless, it said that for GTA3 and it runs like $^#%, nothing but lag with that game. I downloaded a cracked copy, Gonna give it a test run to see if it runs and will report back. If it runs I'd be glad to buy it for $7

Just got done playing 10mins worth of gameplay......The game runs smooth and great on Zeus Rom.

Is it worth the money? I have been looking at buying it for a while, i just haven't been able to bring myself to buy it.

It got addicting......I bought it and it's working Fantastic! It kills 3% battery every 10mins, Not bad considering the graphics.

Ok. Im going to quit being cheap and just buy it. Thanks

I grabbed it for my infuse after watching my 13 year old play it on his Experia Play. Its quite awesome on the infuse. No glitches and very addicting.

Wonder why GTA3 runs horribly then. Confused but I'm sure its glitches.

download chainfire from the market...install the drive with reboot (from cwm seems to cause problems) then change the default opengl settings to unroll textures to 32 bit...either that or the one about about 16-bit something...that should allow you to play the game
i think it might depend on the rom tho...on galnet miui the game played fine, but by unrolling textures with chainfire, graphics looked better AND the game played better
havent tried it on zeus tho...hmm where's my phone....

I'll give chainfire a whirl and report back thanks.

It downloaded 137 MB, and then went kaput.
Even chainfire doesn't seem to help!!!

It runs ok on the infuse. Isnt anything close to the double core phones but it still runs looks awesome but like I said it has stuttering unlike on the Atrix or skyrocket I have but the infuse still handles it OK.

Well if we Get a graphics driver update like the Captivate did, there may be some hope in better gaming performance with the Infuse.

Played the 1.98 version and it runs flawlessly on Zeus with overclock to 1600. Haven't tried it on 1200 yet. I love this game and all but it freaks the crap out of me so bad I'm too scared to play it.. will someone hold my hand??.. lmao
Froggys go ribbet

Anyone tried running the game or gta3 on the cwm community kernel v8? how's the performance?

I am curious about the size of the game. After the install, does it require additional files? If so, where are they stored? My phone is pretty damn full so I was curious about how much room it will take and up where it'll end up.
Thanks.

@Ben
I searched on Google and found exactly the same link, but I don't think that's what the OP wants. My reading of his post is that he wants to actually see his DS screen on his TV (kinda like you can do on the Galaxy S-II), DLNA will only allow him to stream video/audio from his device card, but not to replicate the screen display itself.
My guess is that he wants to see Angry Birds on his 42" LCD screen while he uses his DS as the touch controller

Yeah
I've seen a mate's kids playin it on an HP all-in-one PC - 23" touch-screen monitor. Looked amazing and they had grins from ear-to-ear. Kinda put my mobile to shame really

That would need a hdmi port, which we don't have..

The problem comes from me not having an 8' HDMI lead. For films it's fine (but I have a media PC). playing epic sized angry birds sat on the floor less than 1' away from a 42" screen.... not so fun! Haha!

Motorola XYboard 10.1 Tablet and N64oid and other Emulators question

My birthday is coming up and I am seeing if the Motorola XYboard 10.1 Android Tablet will play Emulator games ( Mainly N64oid) so does anyone know if emulators like that work on the XYboard? And If they Don't, should I still ask for the Motorola XYboard 10.1 , or the Motorola Xoom? Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA

I don't see why they wouldn't, I run n64oid on an HTC evo 3d that's stock, no overclocking or anything, so it should be completely within the functionality of the tablet as long as it is 1 GHz or higher as far as processor speeds are concerned
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA

Works just fine for me. Have at it.

Yes it will. Use youtube and search "Xoom 2 n64oid" or something like that

ive been eyeing up so many of those on ebay.. the co worker bought 4 of them and they all turned out to be fakes tho. the remote wouldn't work on anyones phones in the office no matter what brand or make :|
its a gamble of buying one getting it sent testing it and if not trying another seller's product.

Yes there is also the Nokia purity hd and inear
I test them on android htc Samsung and Sony phones they work ( for marketing reason they don't list the devices on the Box )

Thank you. I ordered the Nokia Purity HD at Amazon and will test it with my HTC One S and Google/Asus Nexus 7. But I think the last one is not compatible to controls:
android.stackexchange.com/a/27590/14361
But as the cable is changable I will do a little research on a cable with analog volume control.

The htc phones for whatever reason they choose todo this uses the volume control for skipping tracks but all three buttons work. I own a nexus 7 and I can tell it does not work. I find a little strange since google software is supported and they band it as a pure google tablet.
