I was browsing through xda... then I saw you thread title. My expression: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Will it be free?
Good news regardless ;-)

Any ideas how much it will cost?
Why would it be free?
I believe it's going to be $7.
WOOHOO I was sitting there like 40-minutes try'na make the downloads of the demo/beta work but NONE of them work
Theres nothing like being in Teh Sandbox (Afghan') with your SA80 next to you hoggin' up the Computers at the CompCafe playing Minecraft.. Now I can do it out in teh field. THIS IS what the SolarPoweredMonkey is for. Not charging a friggin iPod!!

Hell I'd be ballzy enough to buy it and stick it on a download site/email it to people.. Rooted Phone FTW..
So glad I decided to go with teh Play now. Although.. I saw the Video months before I got the Play (Even though it was PINGCHAT! & iPlayer that made me give my Dad the Wildfire and get this!)
7$... but I'm sure it'll be free on teh internetz in a few days.

Hell ANYONE running a Rooted Play could put it up ASLONG as they dont need login or have a licence file.. because then people will be trying to hack that to be free too!
There ARE free launchers of MC out there anyhow.. So maybe someone will make an aftermarket launcher thats free based off the paid one? just as with Windows?
I run it on Linux normally (On teh Toshiba laptop) and Windows from USBstick normally (With "PocketLauncher" etc)
Im guessing they will charge you to buy the app unlike the PC business model where you just buy a premium account.
I wouldnt be too happy about paying for the game again. If its just classic mode without multiplayer then I will give it a pass. if it does have multiplayer then I may change my mind
Guys, if you want more good games on the Play, pirating the biggest game to come to it isn't going to help. Just means we'll get less games that will support it. Just put down a few bucks and show your support.
As far as I know, the game will evolve just like the PC version had over the years.

Totally agree with you zerojay, theres no reason to justify pirating games, especially from indie developers.

I bought it and then 1 and a half minutes later did a refund. There are ads and the Xperia Play controller does not work at all.

any hope for an update that brings xperia play controls?

Why not? Just because it's an episodic game? Thats nothing new, infact xbox live has quite a few episodic games, including some big ones like fable 2.

I don't see how XBL would be related to a game getting Xperia Play controls.
Sounds like they already laid out the plan for this game and are done with it, much like that Captain America game I would not expect it to be XP optimized anytime soon.

I wouldn't except it either, they only have 2 games on the market. Unless enough people gave it a 1 star rating and complained enough about it.

Why has an xbox game, got anything to do with this half assed port, and their money making scheme..in app billing, for that..it should have been the full game, for a couple of quid, from the off.
in app billing + dodgy controls + ads in paid game + episodic = failure, In my book.

Buy the game, buy the episodes, click on the ads, support the developer.
Android game development is still kind of fragile at this point. Great games rarely get over 10k downloads, Amazing games rarely get over 100k downloads.
Just spend the dollar and consider it a donation to the developer to continue working on the game.

I'm all for supporting them, BUT there is NO controller support. I can deal with the ads but the NO controller support is a HUGE deal breaker. If they do update the app with support I well TOTALLY buy it again. I actually have emailed them about the issue.

With the way this game is looking I doubt they'll add support (hope I'm wrong). With ads in the paid app and a crappy port I'm betting they're just making as much money as they can till people figure out it's a waste of money.

Your comment was "they wont add xperia play controls because the game is episodic" like thats a bad thing or what **** devs do, my point was episodic games are everywhere even in main stream gamimg. I wouldnt know if the game has ads because like anyone else with a brain cell i'm using ad free to hide them. But FYI even some of the top paid apps on the market like 360 live pro have ads too. Does that make there dev dodgy too???
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
I wouldn't use 360 live pro, not after paying, and having ad filled stuff in my face..
I just don't agree with that.
Free users, yeah, slap an ad or two, but not for paid for software.
I tried this game it dont use the play buttons so unistalled it.

That's not how it works. This is not published as an alpha program which will be updated in the future and for which donations would be welcome. This is a full fledged program which is being sold with certain commercial practises. Sticking ads in a paid product, not adding Xperia Play controller support and in app Billing in such a short game are not good practises, and buying the game implies supporting them.
Voting with our wallet means not paying for crud. If we buy it, more crud will come because companies will understand that that's what we want. Consumer feedback is all good and nice, but the bottom line is what companies and developers are ultimately attentive to.
This is important because if that function, called price mechanism, doesn't coordinate companies and consumers properly, problems are bound to appear... As they actually are doing, and I don't mean the video game industry alone.
****ty controls, uninstalled.
The game doesn't even appear on my xperia play market, but it appears on the market on my g2 phone. also, is there an official version of duke nukem 3d coming out? cause this isn't made by the actual company.
Well in an update Xperia Play controls will come !

Your so naive, do you not think this happens in main stream gaming? When you play burnout and see lynx adverts on the roadside, do you not think lynx are paying to advertise there? Or when you play PES/Fifa and see adverts all around the pitch? Tiger woods 10 even had pop up ads

There is a bit of a difference to "Billboard" advertising in games that adds "Authenticity" to the surroundings i.e. Fifa and the sideline banners and the "distracting-take-up-10%-of-your-screen-real-estate-mobile-ads”.
The first example I except, the second only if I haven’t paid for the app.
On another note, I always preferred Quake to Duke Nukem, so my recent purchase of Zeus Arena will keep me content FPS wise until Modern Combat 3 comes to android.
I just bought my Amaze and I'm looking to find a game with the best graphics to see what this bad boy can do. Any suggestions on games I should buy?

Any other games?
Dgunners sp, shadowgun, riptide gp, 9mm. Go look at tegra zone for a bigger list.

Unless Nokia puts out worthy hardware, that exclusivity is going harm the Dead Space developer. Nokia has nothing worth having at this point.
Dead space is very detail game and its on android just google it its not on the market so expect warez sites and modern combat 2 is a good looking game but u can wait to number 3 to come out for Android which I hope is very soon !!!!

Is it now? Can I have your source? I've heard (and seen) plenty of talk of it coming to iOS, but never WP7—and certainly not ONLY to WP7. Where's your source? I googled and saw a few articles about it coming to iOS, but not a word about WP7. Did you honestly just make that up? I think you did. Source please.

Not exactly. If it isn't available legally, it doesn't exist. That's how I look at it. The devs deserve their reward for their hard labor. I won't be one who insults them and smacks them in the face by using pirated goods. The iOS version is the only one. And I have that one.

Hey Mr. White Knight, how are you today? Thank god we don't have any criminals in our world, hey? Isn't that fantastic! After all, anyone breaking the law simply does not exist!
Is it considered stealing from a developer when the developer didn't release it for your device? I mean, of course it is, but on the other side of things, the community simply did some of the work for them! Or, wait... does that mean the community doesn't exist? Do we even exist?
Mind blown.
Dungeon Hunter 3 is now available in Gameloft Market Page.
someone know if it is online play only?
thank's
Oh, yes! Been waiting for this... Wait, what??? They want money for it? It was freemium (free to play/try) on iOS! What the hell Gameloft?
Oh, regarding your question. I can only talk about the iOS version which I played, and that REQUIRED you to be online to play it.
Every single in-game transaction (like buying a potion) went through the Gameloft servers.
Don't know about this version though, I AM NOT GONNA PAY FOR IT, it should be freemium as iOS version, damn you Gameloft.
I play it in ipad, but, this version, graphics are different.
I saw gameloft have java version, and this version have graphics.
Someone help us?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
I am really curious about this game. If someone buys it, please let us know. I might even change my opinion and buy it, IF there are no further IAPs required.
But if they want me to pay upfront and then pay for IAPs.... not going to happen.
I didn´t buy it but i saw the screenshots from the game and it is the java version(2d graphics). Gameloft also said on Twitter that they will release Dungeon Hunter 3 for Android in March alongside with the IOS Multiplayer Update.

I hate Freemium, I'd rather it be pay so I can get it for 99 cents when they have a sale. I don't want to have to have my credit card linked to a game to play it.
do xp able to play such big deal?
I believe there is no thread about this game.
I saw this game on the google play for the first time for a long time. I didn't buy it because the description doesn't say that the game is xperia play optimized.
But... I wanted a new game... And I like this kind of game.. So, i decided to give it a try...
My surprise is that the game is xperia optimized. The menus aren't, but in play the game is... And i think that is where it should be.
Enjoy.

Read the reviews and you will see that this is the main reason for its mediocre rating.

LordBattleBeard ,
Maybe I'm getting blind, but the only ads that I see in the game are in the startup menu and it's just for other games made by the same company....
For me, this kind of ads can be seen as information.. It's the company saying "Hi, i have made this games also... Just take a look"
I don't see any pop ups in game... or in any other menu...
To make it clear here goes a shot of the only ads that appear.

Yes but with no option to say "I've saw it now, so let me play the game without seeing this crap everytime I start it up".
If it was a free game, it'd be fine, but seeing as you pay for this, it should at the very least have the option to "not show again".
I wish they included the actual platformer from xbla indie games was released as it was better than this high score game
