Its the control pad, but is uses up for nitro and down for brake rather than the buttons. I've not had chance to see it you can change the control scheme yet

Ouch ya, 8 bucks. Hmm I will have to do the trial and see if it is worth it.
Over the past week I got 3 gameloft games (normally $6 each) for $3 total haha so its tough to pay $8 for 1 game unless its REALLY worth it lol.

True but NFS Shift "HD" (the version that works with the XPlay controls) is $9.99 in the Android Market, so $8 doesn't sound ridiculous based on that.

difference between gameloft and ea is that ea make decent unbuggy games that are worth £5, gameloft games are worth £1 at most imo! I'm glad ea are supporting the x play! Gameloft really annoy me these days, lack of support and updates!

Been playing this on the Play and it is MUCH better than the iphone 4 version (I had it), graphics are much improved and look really good (one of the best looking games on the Play now?), it runs totally smooth and the steering is actually good thanks to the gamepad!
Only odd thing is the nitro/brake being on dpad/analog up and down, these should be on the buttons.
It also has both the cop and racer career unlike the early iphone version!
Superb game, best offering from EA Mobile yet!

+1 i bought it last night. If you get used to the braking/nitro is actually a really good racer. If it had better controls. I would turn auto accerate off and play it like a proper game lol
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk

I got the game, the controls are pretty bad...
However the left and right buttons are on a low sensitivity by default, i maxed the it out and now it plays a bit better

Had a try of the demo and I do like this game, controls are certainly strange, not sure what EA were thinking when they did them but otherwise it`s a good game.
Might be tempted to buy it, would be more tempted if they fix the odd control setup.

EA Surprised me with their responsiveness.
I emailed them about my issue with NFS Shift (that there are 2 versions and the older one doesn't work with the XPlay control pad) and an issue I have with the Sims 3 and they replied back (albeit after 3 weeks) with 2 codes for me to download NFS Shift HD and any other EA game of my choice for free from www.eamobile.com
The problem? eamobile.com doesn't recognize the Xperia Play so it gives me an error "there are no games for your device" . Also wise to point out the Flexion store thats linked above is technically Europe only. NFS HP would cost me 5 GBP plus the exchange rate (a total of about $8) plus my bastard credit card company charges a $11.99 fee every month you use it for foreign exchange. Another thing that sucks about eamobile.com? Dead Space and NFS HP aren't even out yet.
As for the game I played the 1 hour demo last night and once I got used to the controls they weren't that bad. Its a little annoying to have to use the touch screen for the menus when you're used to games just using the controls. But the graphics are flawless and the overall presentation of the game is amazing. I enjoyed it but not enough to spend almost $20 to get it, I'll wait till its out here and hopefully I can use my free game code on it.

Does Max Payne still use both analogs for the camera? That's how it was in version 1.0 and I refunded to go back to 9mm.

Really? It bugged the **** out of me to be honest. The touch pad controls were way too jumpy to get a good shot off and I've only been able to play with auto-aim enabled (not why I bought a gaming phone)
Nova 3 also had abysmal touch pad control and required auto-aim IMO whereas Nova 2 got it perfect (as perfect as touch pad will ever be for me, I favor analog style).

Really? It bugged the **** out of me to be honest. The touch pad controls were way too jumpy to get a good shot off and I've only been able to play with auto-aim enabled (not why I bought a gaming phone).
I must add I've never expected XP's touchpads to be a substitute for real joysticks... IMO they work just OK in some games, and very poorly in other games.
I can live with that, but there is other thing that bugs me.. maybe it's for another thread but... I find Max Payne a shockingly disappointing game. I'm just at the beginning but...it's the whole game like this? Move from room to room, shoot some bad guys, advance the story a little bit, move to another room. Gosh this is boring. I will admit this is my first experience ever with the franchise so I did not know what exactly to expect. Bought it basically on hype and because it's made by R*, who made my beloved GTA 3.
Also how long is it? I'm not sure I won't be bored to tears mid-way although with these kinds of games (kinda movie-like experiences) I usually try to persevere and finish them. Sorry for derailing the thread.

Oh its completely about the story, the gameplay doesn't hold up particularly well and the concept of the game has been expanded upon so much over the years that its almost not worth a retread unless you are compelled to for nostalgia's sake. Max Payne 2 is actually a pretty great game even by today's standards but the first game feels very very old.

Ugh... thanks for that. Guess I still got 9mm with better graphics, better controls and online play... so I don't really have to be disappointed.
...at any rate, Gangstar Rio is actually kinda dope! Same for Virtua Tennis. I really want NOVA 3, but I'm debating whether I wanna put up with any more of Gameloft hogging space off our phones as "data".

I bought NOVA without realising it takes up 17mb data. I cant even play these games really now. I think I'm gonna go ahead and root one day

Using ZergRush method, it will either work and root, or won't. In doing so, data, contacts and anything else won't be affected either way.
Root gives you the power to knacker your phone but if you're not an idiot and don't go deleting important system processes, you're safe.

My Little Pony Friendship is Magic (AVAILABLE NOW, FREE!)

Yeah so... I might be the only person here who's looking forward to this game. There's no official release date available yet, but Gameloft has announced that it will be available 'later this year' and will be on both iOS and Android.
From what I can tell it looks to be a city builder type game. Playing mini games to earn points, then using those points to buy houses, ponies, items...so on and so forth.
So my questions to you all is: Are you excited for this game? Do you think It'll satisfy My Little Pony fans? Will you be buying this? & If so how much are you willing to pay?
I personally think I will be a good game if they do 2 simple things. Listen to what the fans have to say, and have it reflect future episodes, meaning if new ponies make their appearance in season 3, I think Gameloft should add them into the game and to do as much as possible to have the game reflect the TV show. If they keep the updates coming this game should have some lasting appeal & replay value.
Check out the iPad game play demo and let me know what you think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlBInHiJ-74

As a fellow brony, this excites me. /)
Like you said, as long as Gameloft listens to what the fans have to say. And of course new ponies and cannon names and the whatnot. And I hope that they include some of the maybe not so well known background ponies. Such as Lyra, Bon Bon, and Dr. Whooves, etc.. I'd probably pay anywhere between 5 and 10 dollars. Depending on how much content is actually in the game.

Possibly....even if I stopped watching it after season 2 episode 1....I still read the fanfics though lol.

Edit: just watched the video, no way will this run on her ****ty wildfire s

They could make great use of the Xperia Plays touch pads on this game, instead of touch swiping the screen to navigate you could just use the touch pads. And the mini games could make great use of the D-pad. The game has huge potential hopefully they put effort into this instead of just selling the name and making a quick buck.

The only 'major' issue I've come across is the inability to connect to Gameloft & stay connected.
It's a flaw in the game, I expect this to be fixed pretty soon considering most challenges have to do with connecting to gameloft and interacting with other ponies.
All in all a pretty good game tho, I've played it more than Halo 4 so far...

things get sort of expensive later down the road, but they don't force it on you. I'm level 23 and I haven't spent a dollar yet. As long as you manage your in game money you should be fine.

Not really, after you hit level 20 everything you need is pretty much there. I currently have 35,000+ bits right now and that number increases every 3 minutes or so. I've also done all the available 'challenges' for the time being (besides the GL ones obviously)
So yeah hopefully we'll see an update soon...

Games that work flawlessly on Galaxy S4

Post the games that you've checked are working flawlessly and the games you prefer the most for Galaxy S4
Please don't post any offensive or unwanted stuff...this thread is to let all of us know what games work properly on S4 without any bugs...and what games we all prefer...
I'll start with the ones I've checked:
Raging Thunder 2 works amazingly....everyone must try...
And also Ski Safari works very smoothly whereas it lags a bit on some other high end phones...
Hit the thanks button if this thread helped you...

Not played many on mine yet, but
Beach Buggy Blitz
and
Into the Dead
both work perfectly and look amazing!

Games
Real Racing
C.H.A.O.S
NFS Most wanted :highfive: (free on Samsung app store!)
Iron Man 3
COD Zombies
GTA 3 & Vice City
AND SAS3.

Tried Dungeon Hunter 4, seems to have no lag.

I think the list should be divided into Qualcomm and Exynos part. Not everything will play same in both devices.

The tegra 3 doesn't compare to adreno 320 short answer it will smoke GTA. However if the s4 anything like nexus 4 stock kernel (sim chip set I think s4 upgraded a little though) after 15 mins if chip heats up thermal control kicks in and you may get shudder.

OSMOS HD - an AMAZING game, very peaceful, looks fantastic on this 1080p screen, and runs flawlessly
there is a demo for people who want to try before you buy, but the full version is definitely worth the $3 - especially for people who are after a game that is peaceful and not rushed/hard/painful to play
controls are super easy too

Sine Mora is a horizontal shooter, and it's already out, and it runs like ****.
It has 3 graphics options, low-high, but runs really badly.
On PC/PS3/Vita, it is 60fps, and lush, but on Android, it's sub 20fps, motion is crap, controls are on screen, you need a magnifying glass to read the text on the Play, and it's letterboxed to death, nowhere near what it should be.

It's still poor on a tablet, it's letterboxed anyway, and the controls are right under the play area,with silly little buttons, and the fluidity of it is gone.
Like i say, the "real" versions are 60fps with super high detail, smooth as silk, this is just a sloppy port.
If you have a Vita, that would be the portable version to go for.

Hahaha and I just sold my XP last week! Oh well, will buy them anyways. These games are the first thing I'm playing on my next Android phone. In the meantime, I'll spoil myself playing the PS3 version of Ketsui.
