I Hate Gameloft - Android Apps and Games

No point to this post apart from to say I hate Gameloft, and all their games are crap.

Wow - for a bunch of people who don't care, you all seem to have taken considerable effort to find your fancy 'I don't care' pictures and post them here.
Why not spend that energy explaining instead why Gameloft isn't a pile of turd that overcharges for badly thought out and badly executed 'games' while managing to convince the Android gaming community that their products are cutting edge? Why not show me anyone who is able to glean any enjoyment out of the recent batman game after paying for what they promised to be a brilliant open world adventure? Or anyone who enjoys the laggy, impossible-to-control, stupidly scripted, and just bad looking antics of the modern combat series? Not to mention the ridiculous in app purchases in most of their other games.
It's time to put an end to the illusion that Gameloft is a top android game team - they are a bunch of cynical hacks interested in nothing but cashing in on movie franchises or the promise of an android 3rd person shooter while NEVER delivering a polished and enjoyable finished product. Unfortunately for most of us, their downloads take so long we can no longer get a refund after trying these awful games.

Yes gameloft sucks! But whining here isn't gonna change that! And I believe its better than games in ios correct me if I'm wrong! And apparently many people happen to like the batman game and modern combat series! It's a matter of what you like and dislike!
P.s if you want good control in a third person shooter game or fps pair a Xbox or ps3 controller with your phone and play!

Look 6 to 7 bucks a game tops it beats spending 60 on a Xbox or ps3 games that you don't even have time for or even out gets old quick. Don't buy if you don't like them. Most of the games I Google the games apk first to try then if I like I'll buy them just giving heads up.

And the G1 that got stolen my buddy lent me the money to get it and when I told him the G1 got stolen he told me not to pay him back. The mytouch was my worst loss imo

Continued requests for WAREZ will get this thread closed & deleted!
Follow-up to my WAREZ Request Warning:
You can find these apps easily by searching the Android Market or failing that you can request that the OP add QR Codes for the apps.
Just asking for a link or "where can I get that" can be mistaken for a WAREZ Request when the platform has a centralized marketplace like Android or iPhone does.
I haven't been able to find Star Wars TFU in the Market through my Captivate, which is why I was curious as to where these were being found. Searching "Star Wars" brings up a load of useless junk, and searching "Star Wars the Force Unleashed" brings up "Use the Force", or something like that.
OP, do you have a QR code?
Thank you, I am going to test some of this list
@ALL : Stop asking links please, as it's exactly the same than asking for WAREZ ! We are on XDA forum, on which warez is NOT allowed !
If you keep asking, thread will be closed and no more sharing informations of great games will be allowed... Would be really sad no ?
U lot need to shutup about warez, he cnt find star wars and i cant find need for speed on the market, some apps u have to get buy from other sites. So pleaaase get a life.

FPSE and PSXPERIA: Which one to use?

It's a good thing that we have multiple options in terms of emulation. So which emulator should we use and why?
Obviously if a game works for one and not the other, the choice is clear.
But what about games that work well on both? What are the differences?
Ultimately the choice is your own, but know that there are subtle differences between the emulators.
The native emulator appears to have some filtering going on when SW-render is on, and higher res models when SW-render is off. The native emulator also seems to have more stable frame rates when a game works.
FF7:

A bonus for using the native emulator is this:
Analog support, Hardware Acceleration, Playstation Pocket compatibility. All reasons why I will be using PSXPERIA whenever possible, and FPSE in other situations. Tekken 3 for example, no contest, the PSXPERIA version beats the pants off of the FPSE version. Your screenshots speak volumes.
Yeah alll the games I like work fine of PSXPERIA
For me, the only negative things with PSXPeria compared to FPSE are:
1. Lack of easily configurable options. Just to fine tune that game!
2. Lack of a multiple save state system that is quick to use.
That's all at the moment.
Yeah what we need is the Sony Emulator devs to be in this forum

lack of multi disk support, lack of compatibility .....
And you guys wonder why FPse devs cant be bothered adding touchpad support, if i was them and i came here, I'd igore the play users too
The few games I like gets stuck with no graphic, just black nothingness within the first mission, with psxperia but with fpse they work without any graphic glitches.
Even more the analog touchpad does not work correctly in those games either.
So I choose fpse any day as of now and if they implement analog touchpad it would be a signed deal for me. Further more it has far more settings to finetune to optimize the gaming experience

Lots of games are single disc, but lack of compatibility?!?!? Ive compiled over 50 games thus far. I have 35 flawlessly working games now. Id say thats a pretty good ratio for something that was never supposed to work in the first place. To enable analog support you have to go to controls in the menu and change to option 6. Works amazingly well in Crash 3, Spyro 3, Need for Speed 3, Tekken 3, and the list goes on. This is what the X-Play was meant to be!
Strangely the native has PERFECT FMV, something schtruck said was difficult to emulate.
Oh and psxperia runs faster too and less graphical glitches from what I tested
Oh and its free and the UI is soooo sexy

It is difficult to emulate if you didn't create the console and have access to every minute detail of its internals.
About FPSE not adding the touchpad support, it's a choice of theirs. However, my money is as good as any other user's. If those users get updates so that their device can run FPSE better, so should I.
Id love to Try PSXperia but every time I've asked a question regarding how to even set it up I've been shot down for being too inexperienced. I think one of the most common lines Iget is that if it's too complicated then I shouldn't bother. I guess I'll be going without Xmas dinner this year too
For all the help I HAVE had, the amount of replies to the above tarnish my opinion. Its like an elitist hive and woe be tide if you dont know what you're doing and you're made to look a complete child amidst what I can only call technobabble. I've had to resort to PM's and YouTube tutorials due to the amount of rudeness I've received on here.
I never knew where this meme came from. However, you've made me use it and educate myself by googling the origin of the meme. For that, I thank you. And as a bonus reward, the PSXperia guide that the DEV himself (who by the way has been absent and probably won't come back), penned for us: https://github.com/yifanlu/PSXperia/wiki

Actually, he hasn't. Or at least not half of it. And I don't think it's for the money: he seems like a really helpful guy and not a mercenary. However it doesn't encourage much additional effort that after doing his part of the deal, half of the ones who pledged refuse to do the same. If the bounty was $200 and all of us had paid, I'm sure he'd still stick around here and do his best for us.

Alas, it's not perfectly optimized since you use up to jump instead of circle, but I've already contacted the developers to see if they'll move the exit game button to menu and make back jump (... as well as a few other things like putting it in the game launcher and giving the option to hide onscreen controls)... still, it works kinda nicely as is!
Looks like Castle Vania.. I don't like that game but since this is free I will definitely try this..

Nah... I just notice a lot of people who hate Castlevania because of the *older style* of them. While some can tolerate the old style CV games, most think they are sluggish, antiquated, choppy and contain a lot of "fake" difficulty (which is usually just horrid physics combined with poor mechanics and terrible coding to make it harder than it needs to be) and it's very understandable why people would dislike those.
...my point is that those same people who hate the old style of CV games often end up loving the new style where Castlevania is turned into an Adventure/Platformer/RPG hybrid.
looks fun will try it out
This game is like fried chips. It's not good for anything (poor atmosphere, Engrish, prehistoric game mechanics and ridiculously easy difficulty) but it's addictive.
Worst game ever played, choppy game play, poor music, easy, poor chinese to english translation( at least it's wat i can think of). the most important part is, it can't be play when you're not connected to internet, and continue force me to play on chapter 2 (before Cerberus battle, which is er....buolosi, wat a crappy name)while i already reach chapter 4.
Yeah, gameplay has potential, and it's pretty, but ridiculously easy, and the English literally makes no sense.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
Honestly, I expected the translation to be ass... now that I think about it, every Metroidvania after Symphony of the Night had some very "WTF?" cutscenes too that didn't make the story engaging at all...
...and that's what I expected... lame, unengaging story, topped with extravagant gameplay... and the actual game is definitely very fun.
One thing is an extraneous sentence from time to time, and another thing is the inability to follow the story. If the stories were completely moot, Alucard and Samus Aran would not be myths of gaming.

There's a reason I excluded Symphony of the Night in my above note.
As for Metroid... this might just be my opinion, but it seems no one really cared about the storyline in any of those games either. Super Metroid is the only traditional canon Metroid game that *kinda* had a somewhat developed story... for ages, Samus had barely any developed character or backstory... and when they actually tried to flesh it out (Metroid: Other M) people hated them for it.
I'm just sayin'... as much as this game could've benefitted from a good storyline (or a good enough translation so that we could care about it) people generally care more about the gameplay aspects than they do the characters or storyline.
Unless they have it in recent memory or specifically did a google search just to recall some detail, people might be hard-pressed to remember those subtle details about Super Metroid's storyline, but they sure as hell remember how rewarding it felt to get the Plasma Beam, Super Bomb, Super Missle, Screw Attack, the suit that allows you to withstand all that insane heat in Norfair and the ability to run at high velocities... vividly; no matter how long ago it was.

So I don't know if you've ever heard me talk about Pixeline and the Jungle Treasure, I may or may not have touted it as a Super Mario Bros. clone.

A bit pricey... but now that I've mustered up the strength the buy it, I'm definitely glad I did! It's quite a lot of fun, has a decent array of techniques to keep things fresh... and yeah, it totally out-SMB'ed Pixeline
The Giana Sisters is the original SMB clone..they got into a lot of crap years ago, from nintendo, due to it.
This is one of the best games on Commodore64
Say what?! Yay!!
Giana Sisters was one of my absolute favorite C64 games back in the day. And yeah they got into a load of crap by Nintendo for being such a obvious rip-off.
The irony though is that Giana Sisters now has been released on the Nintendo DS.
An excellent game, well worth the money
I've picked this one up now and it plays very well. A great chance to own this if you never had the extremely rare DS version.
This is probably the best and most full featured game released on the Play so far. We all must support our device so since everyone here is a dedicated user PLEASE all pay the amount, which is slightly high for a throwaway phone game, but very low compared to the £40 I paid for the rare DS game (which it was worth) BUT this is not a throwaway phone game, this is a full featured console port from the DS and will last you for weeks!
We must support developers bringing full console games to the Play. In my book this is the first TRUE major release!
Also do not pirate this or any other Play games, we must keep sales strong so developers keep seeing us as an attractive Market.

I did not know this.
I believe the game was banned on c64. It was only released in Germany on DS as they wanted to keep it small worrying about what big N did to them before. It's been extremely rare on both previous consoles so we are lucky to be able to play it on toilet breaks in work
Are you serious? A Super Mario clone already available on iOS is the first major release of anything?
Seriously, people, we're not getting more than cheap ass games lately, but that doesn't mean we have to cheer for them.
a bit laggy for me.. anyone else?

Whoa... someone's had their bowl of Cynical-O's today
Who said anything about this being a major release? Its a decent game, but also one of those "Seen better, seen worse." cases. What's the point of raining on people's enthusiasm if we just so happen to be enjoying a well-done clone?
"Already being on iOS" does not detract merit... not one bit.
If ya haven't been tuned in, touch controls are complete **** for most genres (platformers being one of the worst) to the point in which developers admit to watering down or subtracting from thr experience just to make a game work with touch controls, so anything Xperia PLAY adapts from iOS is something that's automatically a superior experience.
Relax, bro...it ain't that serious; its all fun n games, nahmeen?

You know that I love how you market all the games that come to us, and I've bought and played more than one game on your recommendation, but that sentence is just false.

Ah okay, I'll admit I overlooked that.
Yeah, I like Giana Sisters quite a bit, but we've had far more that counts as "major" releases.

Runs perfectly smooth.
I don't care if it was out on iOS as a lot of console ports are there that we don't have. This is a great first step and an awesome game. Platform games with touchscreen is AWFUL. Imagine how amazing XPlay Soosiz would be.
I bought Giana Sisters when it hit iOS and it was unplayable due to control issues. So it's hardly the same when this is a 9/10 release and the iOS was 3/10 cause of control being so poor

Maybe a little hyped up and over the top but it is important to remember it is a port of a DS game. This was originally a £30 DS game and received very good review scores. The iOS version was a port of the DS game too, so it's a little different from just any old iOS game that was originally made for that platform and released for £3.
I loved the game on DS so perhaps was over the top like I said so sorry for letting my nostalgia run wild!
That is a nice comment by the way I'm just glad to have somewhere to share my enthusiasm for the device. I love seeing new posts here and ive picked up a few from posts here too. Perfect forum to compliment Pocketgamer.co.uk as the best XP review site IMO

Edit to first post there: this game was originally an 8 or 9 out of 10 on DS. It should have read

IRUNA Online
Conquer 3 Kingdoms RPG
Conquer 3 Kingdoms is a ridiculously fun hybrid of games like Streets of Rage(Knights of the Round) and common Action RPGs. LeTang Inc. seems to have a sweet tooth for that genre. As for IRUNA, my jaw just dropped. We JUST got a fresh new MMORPG to play on our Xperia PLAYs yesterday! ...and now we have another one with some nice Japanese art-style influence. I've also completely re-did the XperiaPLAYGamer site layout to celebrate Xperia PLAY passing 300 games!
Also like to extend a VERY big thanks to jgregory1 for giving me the tip that Iruna was released in English.
That's awesome !
I'm a proud owner of the Xperia Play
Any chance for an apk of the mmo as its not available my country
Just spent an hour playing Iruna and its fun. I hae played the crap out of Elemental Knights online and it was nice playing something different, not too much... they are virtually the same.. but fun. Anyone happens to be playing either EKO or Iruna and sees a character named BloodMyst thats me. Hope to see your online counterparts on the MMOs.
Oh also TL... dont know if this is also on the games list but its by the same company that makes King Fighter, etc
Its simply called "Tank War 2012"
and yes it uses the control...no touchy just the directional and x buttons.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDIxMiwiY29tLmxldGFuZy5nYW1lMTA4LmVuLmNrIl0.
Yeah, I'm loving IRUNA too! Soon as my subscription to Order & Chaos Online are gone, you best believe I will have no problem wiping that phone storage hog out to make this my main MMO.

Thanks for the heads up! ...don't know how I've missed it so long, but that also made me notice I'd built that whole database and completely forgot about Tank Riders. Up to 302 games
huh, does this iruna use touchpads? it seems it isn't available in my country, though... is it completely free or is there a subscription?

No luck on the touchpads. It uses the d-pad though... and I'm sure the Xperia PLAY compatibility isn't a "general keyboard" fluke either because it integrates the shoulder buttons for camera control.
It is completely free to download and free to play though... and what was even more badass is that it just uses your gmail instead of requiring a separate registration process.. I really hope that becomes more of a norm
I tried it and it seems its free only because its an alpha; anyway, it wasn't that much of an enjoyment for me; the controls are also really sketchy.

To each their own. I don't expect everyone to love IRUNA, or even like it as much as I do.
I do agree that the controls could use some improvement though. D-pad movement works okay, the target/confirm X system works okay, Using L/R for the camera works okay... everything only works okay, not as great as they could. I really want to see this control like Pocket Legends with full left analog movement and the right analog controlling camera rotation/zooming.
I emailed the maker of Iruna asking about furher developing the xperia PLAYs controls. Waiting to hear back, if they reply I will let yall know what they say.
:O
Omg Iruna looks amazing. But why the hell its says incompatible with mine?
Update
Nvm. Got it somewhere else.
Just thought I would share a quick reply. I was told that they are in the works of translating these two MMO JRPG
StellaCept Online:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...iwiY29tLmFzb2JpbW8uc3RlbGxhY2VwdF9vbmxpbmUiXQ..
CelesArca Online: (This one looks visually to be my favorite, looks a lot like Eternal Sonata for XBOX & PS3)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEwMiwiY29tLmFzb2JpbW8uY2VsZXNfYWxwaGEiXQ..
Its quite obvious these are both MMORPG games and I am looking forward to seeing them get a English translation..

reminds me of PSO
And CelesArca is porningly similar to Skies of Arcadia in its looks.
All the ways lead to Dreamcast.

Are you not able to download it from the market link? If not I don't see why we can't link the API to this thread as its a free game.

The game's not available in my country xD. I actually found it by checking the version number on the playstore then googling for it. Dumb country restrictions

Agreed. I really do not understand why they restrict items. I mean I have korean friends that cannot download the korean apps/games unless they reboot with a modified build.prop and market enabler... and they live in the US... but because items are market restricted....yup stupid.
What do you think of the game?
Is Conquer 3 Kingdoms free or "freemium"?
