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:
Lode Runner X
Experiment 13
Karoshi
Gunman Clive
And Tap n crash

Metroid is still a great choice if your into older games
Sent from my Nexus 7
@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.

Best xperia play game yet! Heck on any phone, just bc of the controls.
Awsome thanks for the heads up i bought it straight away lol
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Bought! Works great with the control pad. One of the best games I've played so far in my play. And only $2.50 that's cheap!
Sent from my R800x using XDA Premium App
Just downloaded and played for about 5 mins. Amazing. Graphics are awesome and the control is sweet. Best game on PLAY so far.
Reminds me a little bit of the Dreamcast game "Guts of Rage" I think it was called. So gory.
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
Looks great, plays great and is silky smooth.
Puts to shame other developers who charge a relative fortune for stuff that isn't half as good as this.
bought it,pretty sweet game but is there any use of the right touch pad or triggers?
Already played it loads on the iphone 4 months back, runs good on the play too and runs at 60fps! one of the best looking mobile games to date.
Yeah, this game is pretty good. Fairly inexpensive, optimized to take advantage of the Play's buttons. I enjoy it quite a bit. I couldn't imagine doing this with the touch screen. It would be so unintuitive and I would constantly get in my field of view due to large fingers.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this game and would recommend it to any person that likes action games, provided they can withstand a little cartoony gore. (Beheadings, Sliced in half laterally, sliced in half vertically, lots of blood from kills which does fade away).
Great game, looks really nice with those cartoony graphics and the controls work really well.

Thanks for the suggestion though...no other games huh?
I bought shadow gun and its fun to show off and awesome on the tablet especially but I'm not more than five minutes in. Just doesn't pull me. I don't game much on mobile these days tbh. I'd most want to play an RTS but there arent many.

You guys should try this thing called "onlive". It streams current Gen games to your phone. You can use it on your pc to but I was using it on my captivate. Barely any lag. It matters on your net speed, not processor. It blew my mind. Nice to show off to friends.

ok...a quick review of games that i have tried on so far...
shadowgun--absolutely worth the 5 bucks that we pay, and also awesome graphics
spirit--fun and looks gud on big screen
Asphalt was good too
shine runner--nice graphics, but the game gets monotonous after a while
Flick Soccer--really good if u r a soccer fan, an absolute time killer
Shadowgun, Dead Space and GTA3 are beasts. Worth the $$. I am a sucker for World of Goo though. So good
check out Gun Bros!
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

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.

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

Besides the usual well-known games (Cut the rope, where is my water, etc)
I would recommend 'Music Hero' if you like the guitar hero concept (quite basic, but it lets you play every song in your playlist)
Not so casual, but if you're looking for fun, very humoristic and addictive game- try 'The bard's tale' - it supposed to work fine with your device (but make sure you have at least 3Gb of free storage, because this game is massive!)

Popcap games are good when you wanna kill the time "softly"
Adventure graphic novel game such as "The Last Express" is quite an experience as well. (Ever heard of games like Myth before!?)
Or you can try racing games like Asphalt :good:

Yes yes I have! I'm not a fan of tower defence or racing games, though. I like puzzle games, and not-too-intense RPGs like 9th Dawn. I enjoyed Osmos alot, too.
If you are not into hardcore RPG then try Black Gate: Inferno by Glu for your RPG simple hack and slash
Try gba games with emulator.
You can find many games there.
Also 72in1 is a good game that gives you video game experience. Not available in Google play

My advice - get an iPhone, and spend ur me-times with Siri. Certainly works for me! :good:

Osmos HD
A really cool game which has pleasing music and available for both Android and iOS is Osmos. It is kind of a sciency-fiction kind of game where you absorb other objects like cells. Sounds a bit weird but it is a good time-waster. It is about one of the only games I have ever played on my phone. It is paid but I think there is a free version to test out.

Yes and besides that, as if I'm going to spend money on an iPhone. If I had that money I would so go for a higher end Android. I'm not the typical iPhone hater but I just really can't stand the OS.
Try infectonator if you're into zombie games. Its beautifully crafted with pixel art graphics and with tons of replay value. Its very addicting and for sure you'll be hooked for hours. Dominating the world by infecting and turning them to pixel zombies is the best way to relieve stress... and did i mentioned you get to beat the hell out of Justin Bieber on one of the stages?
