Good Platformers for Xperia Play ? - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

I've some such as Stardash, INC, Cordy, Roboto and they need to be fed. I have emulators as well.
I was wodering if there were anymore apart from those.
Have to say platformerts are lacking on the Xperia Play and they should be releasing more because the Xperia Play has physical buttons
I want originality like Mario style Platformers. So can anyone recommend me some ?
Thanks

are you kidding? there Are like over 180 games? search!

Gloomy dungeons is a decent game and it works with Xperias buttons. Just map the shoulder buttons to move left n right. :-D

Get my drift, on the Japanese Android Market they have a slew of these types of games, problem is is even though I can download them they will not play as they will say my phone is capable of downloading them but hen when I go to play it says incompatible, weird. Anyway, sorry to steal your thread, I will make another on my own for this topic, just got me thinking is all....

R type is another one but its hard :-D brilliant remake aswell. And radiant hd try that.

Far from lacking, there's pixeline, giana sisters, Cordy, toyshop adventures, the sonic games and quite a lot of others.

Not played it yet but Modern Combat 2 :Black Pegasus is only £1 on gameloft's site at the moment (well lots of HD games) not sure if its a world wide sale and only shows up if browsing from device not computer
worth a try with £3.25 off!
sweet thanks for the heads up. Do you think we will be able to use the controls like the stock games use. I would really like to use the dpads and physicall buttons instead of on the screen

of the gameloft games out now have been written with the plays controls in mind so yes u will be able to play with the control pad
I have brothers in arms, modern combat, and N.O.V.A.2.
Nova2 is by far the best of the 3. the aiming with the right analog stickis a lot smoother, which takes a lot of the frustration out of the experience.

Yea it's awesome.
I bought 5 or 6 games for £1.
Currently loving Spiderman
of the FPS available NOVA 2 is definitely the one to go with.
The Spiderman and Splinter Cell games are quite fun also.
I haven't gotten around to Backstab and Avatar just yet because I want to finish the 5-6 games I've got on there already.
Rainbow six, best game so far!

I love the rpg aspect and the rampant action/platforming....very fun
I have yet to try multiplayer so if you grab it post your username!
I bought it yesterday. I have'nt had chance to play it yet. Looks good though!
I can't find it too on my list.. Found it thru searching.. My niece and nephew will like this for sure..

Post your thoughts!
I think it's one of the most impressive android games ever
This game is addicting! It kinda vaguely reminds me of the original mario bros, or the battle mini game on Super Mario Bros 3 as some might remember it as.
My openfeint name is the same as on here..except with a 2 on the end..
I'm loving it too, just like their guerilla bob before..
I love the ninja kitty and the cyclops ability, I dont like the frog and the monkey..
I just bought it and it looks stunning and is certainly addictive!
Is there a way to stick with a character? i'm finding it quite hard or is it just because i'm new?!
Also, seeing as its cross platform, us Play owners must destroy those pesky iphone owners! I love Angry Mob games
It's sad how my ipod can get the game for 0.99 while I have to pay 2.99 for the android version
Anyway, I could go forever using cyclops alone.. Love the bird too...
But for some reason I hate it when my character turns into the bull.. Even though it's the last character..

It just happens for some reason..Angry Birds is free on Android but .99 on iPhone.
I also suspect that this game would be INSANE hard on touch controls, hence the price reduction?

Looking for a adventure/RPG/quest type game

I am not the biggest gamer...having played a little WoW back in the day, and first two Diablo games....which I liked a great deal...and a few others.
What I am looking for (which might not exist yet) is an Android game that is RPG strategy with less emphasis on first person shooter (don't mind this, but don't want to play Resident Evil or XBox games that are all first person shooting games).
I also liked Sim games somewhat, but was hoping to find something like... Myst (which is an oldie I realize, but I am considering the Android platform) or maybe Diablo 1 or 2. Or, of course, but I know impossible, something like Skyrim... Something where I can immerse a character in a story and try to find clues/weapons/etc. toward completing an ultimate over-arching game goal (solve murder, prevent evil group takeover, or whatever).
I like the fantasy R&D themed games, but a modern storyline would be really cool.
Amy help is greatly appreciated!

How much does it cost? I'm just curious, and the Play page doesn't say, and none of the reviewers are, either. Looks good, though. This plays like a Zelda game?
To the OP: I've been playing games on Gameboid, a GBA emulator. It's not in Google Play, you have to go to the SlideMe market (web-based, you download the .apk and sideload it). I find it runs the GBA version of Zelda 3 better than the Super NES emulator runs the original, and the GBA version actually fixes a few things. So I've played that, and also the Castlevania games on my phone. Controls could be better but aren't terrible.

Ok thanks a lot for the responses.
I was looking around on the market and saw GTA3. I actually never played this (I hear it is a port of the original) but spent many hours of my life playing Driver on PS. The thing that I wanted to ask about which GTA3 brought to mind was off the games mentioned, one element that I was looking for (if the 3D is pretty good ...GTA3 really surprised me) is detailed and/or extensive environments. I loved Skyrim and virtually any MMO for this reason (but it doesn't need to be multi-player)... I think that's why adventure games always were the most interesting... In contest to FPS games anyway. Just the endless exploration of the game world...to me that is escapism at its best.
I am trying most of the games mentioned here in this thread, but if the above additional info triggers anyone's recollection of any others... please let me know!
Thanks,
Syntropic

RPG Knight of the Earthends - Released today

Just sharing, and if you want to thank anyone for finding this game thank TLRtheory. I am a huge fan of Kemco's RPG games for our phone and saw this listed on TLRtheory's website (xperiaplaygamer.net)
So.... thank TLRtheory for finding this, not me.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ult#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImtlbWNvLnd3cy52Z2EiXQ..
I would like to thank TLRtheory for his dedication to his work at his website and for his continued vigilance to scour the ends of the internet searching for games that utilize our underappreciated, yet kicka$$ phone. Thank you TL!
Yeah this is WAY better than everything else Kemco released on Android... even Aeon Avenger and Symphony of Eternity.
They certainly do have a knack for RPGs that maintain 80% and up in quality ratings :\
...AND THIS MUSIC!!!!! It's a wet dream for video game music lovers like myself

It runs a lot faster then their previous games. The battles. Are so fast I get whiplash and my eyelids flap in the wind. But yes so far its looking to be better then their others which were great in my opinion.
Also anyone else feel the final boss in Eve of the Genesis was incredibly almost unbeatable hard?

My problem was actually that Eve of Genesis' final boss was disappointingly weak.
Now, when we get to the post-game content you get an additional final boss sequence which is completely goddamned insane. I had to be on Lv135 to beat the *real* final boss.

My problem with these games is that people describe them as merely "solid", "well put together", "really fun", etc. But if I'm going to invest dozens of hours into an RPG, I dunno, I'd rather play one of the many untapped masterpieces on an emulator. I haven't played Terranigma, Chrono Trigger, or many of the other classics yet.
I'm glad they're out there and people are enjoying them, don't get me wrong.

I...What...But........HUH?! Never played Chrono Trigger?!?! Well, you should get on that as it is the best game I've ever played. I just went through it for probably the 30th time over the last couple weeks. No offense to Kemco, but their games can't even come close to the greatness of Chrono Trigger. Just my personal biased opinion since CT is my favorite game of evar. woopwoopwoop

What are some good retro platformers?

I already have most of OrangePixel's games(Meganoid, INC, etc.) and They Need To Be Fed, but can't find any other good ones. I don't want something like Cordy or Robotto. I'd prefer something more retro-like and also PLAY optimized, if possible. Thanks.
Have you tried Don't look back? Only some of the play controls work. I've finished it and quite enjoyed it despite it's basic gameplay.
Project 83113 is also great but not really retro

LMAO, that looks like an Atari game! Maybe a little TOO retro, but I'll give it a try regardless. Thanks.
The sonic games might also be worth checking out as well as:

@UndisputedGuy I've already beaten Karoshi & Gunman Clive before, but Tap n Crash looks a lot like impossible game, which is good.
@TLRtheory Giana Sisters & Pixeline...No. Paper Monsters looks OK at most. These all seem too childish to me. Thanks anyways.
@Leraeniesh Unfortunately, I've already beaten every Metroid & Castlevania multiple times. It's too bad Metroidvania is dying. Great recommendation though.
Have you tried Megatroid? It's free but I don't think it's optimised for the Xperia Play
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
Gunman Clive was way too short and I found Paper Monsters to be very very boring. I would certainly agree with the Lode Runner X recommendation even though it isn't a platformer. I would also try Ninjammin Beat-Jitsu even though it's a bit more of a rhythm based game.
@UndisputedGuy I will definitely check out Megatroid. It looks really fun! You're on fire today!
@BrianChase You're right, Gunman Clive was really short, but still fun. As for the other titles you recommended, I'll give them a look. Thanks!
Good point! In my tired state I forgot to mention how much fun I had with Gunman Clive. Great game, but because of that the shortness made me even more sad.
So I got Megatroid, and I gotta say it's pretty awesome. It's pretty much what I was looking for. I really like how the game randomly generates a level based on an entered code as well as all the upgrades in the shop. These give it a lot of replay value. BTW, it actually is Xperia PLAY optimized, but only in-game, which means the menu buttons are only accessible via touch. That doesn't really matter though.
