True, but I think you might be looking past the fact the NVidia Shield Tab is still a great device.

You can play just about anything android,, but the GPU is capable of handling more than whats typically found in the Play Store.

[Q] problem about gaming

im using the Rogers Htc one x, I watched some video on youtube that they can run some 3D games very well, i download some of them but none of them runs on mine!! I tried Dungeon Defenders, Zen Painball, Sims free play, they just show me the logo then jumped out , the game shadowgun THD said my device is not supported. I also download the NVIDIA TegraZone ,when i try to download some of the games,it said "Non-Tegra device detected, this enhanced game requires an NVIDIS Tegre mobile processor", which is weird, for i think one x has a NVIDIA Tegre 3.
plz help me
thx

Yep, only the international version has the Tegra. The AT&T and Rogers version has the S4, which is arguably the better processor.

if you're rooted I THINK chain3d in the market will spoof the tegrazone and make those games work, but I haven't tried it myself.

Pretty sure HTC phones need s-off for it to work.
There are a bunch of 3D games that work great on our phone, just not from tegra zone. Modern Combat 3 is awesome, so is Shadowgun. You need to buy MC3 from gameloft.com though. Shadowgun is available from the play store.

i tried to use TegraZone Games to download games which i cant before, and a game named Samurai 2 which i also cant before
those works very well
but not for all games, im still downloading Dungeon Defenders to try this one
If you mean Samurai Vengeance 2, there is a version that works beautifully for our phone available from the play store.
What other games have you downloaded through tegra zone and actually played?

The market says no for Play and SP but yes for U
It's INCOMPATIBLE with Xperia Play.
LOL at all those enthusiastic people who thought this would run on XP.
All is lost. Goodbye world... waaaaaaa!
EDIT: If they left out the Xperia PLAY due to its ancient hardware, what's the point of making it Gingerbread-compatible altogether? I think it's safe to assume that devices stuck on GB up to today are weaker or at par with the Xperia PLAY. So what's the point Rockstar?
well i think its time to change android...

Its not all lost.
We have a new PS3/X-Box 360 game just ported to the Xperia Play today -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576702
Its Rockstar and the 3rd party dev (War drum studios) that ported it that is the issue here. If they had any care in the world for Android (IOS Fanboys) this game would have been made better and for more devices. Take alook at the market listing, it seams it does not work on any device even if they are modern at the momment.
Look at those 1 stars lol

It's getting one star reviews because it's crashing for some people. They've already patched it once today but it needs another. It's going to be the best game ever once they get passed this latest issue.
The Google Play version lists Android 3.0 as the minimum requirement but the Amazon listing says Android 2.3 which is most likely due to it needing to be compatible with the kindle fire. I wonder if the Amazon version will work if they make it available to devices outside the kindle fire, it doesn't look like it's going to have a kindle specific version.
Any body know if its xperia play optimized?

I installed it on my own 4.1.b.13 and that xperia z rom i ported 2 days ago
On both of them i have problems with gamepad and touchpads so i cant say anything about xpo optimization
But the game is not working well on it
It will be closed when you go home and when you wana play a massion and ...
But the game itself is as fast as gta vice city
I think the problem is related to ram
Can swap partition work exacly as ram?
Because even angry bird go needs more ram (1gb)
I will try swap soon too
I enabled 256mg swap on my sd card then played gta san andreas with my 4.1.b.13
Everything worked fine
Only sometimes i have bad lags but i dont have closed game anymore
As i said before i cant test xpo optimization due to not working touchpads and gamepad in my rom
i think XP needs a good 4.0+ rom

parsing error in my xp gingerbread...
They got the nVidia Shield controls perfect.
gamepad and touchpads dont work sadly
checked in 4.1.H.0.4 - FIXED by johnnzey r4-1
but the game itself is working well
maybe we can talk to rockstar about that
because if the support gamepads supporting xperia play gamepad is not hard

Dolphin gamecube emu and shield?

Has anyone got it to work? Cause when i launch twilight princess it just gets black screen.
They won't develop dolphin for shield due to lack of open gl 3.0.
No big loss, there is no GC emulator for android that able to run games.

Yes, that is the same response I got from the Developers. Google should be ashamed for shipping the nexus 9 with an older version of OpenGL unlike Nvidia Shield.
Trine 2 doesn't work on the Nexus 9 because the old version of OpenGL lacks some libraries for some of the top Tegra optimized games to work. I hope they can fix this with an Android update along the line.

Could a custom rom replace the old opengl with the latest?
Fairly perturbed about Trine2 as well. I had full intention of it being the first thing I installed. There should be no reason (other than a small software update) that it won't work on the N9. Nvidia and google need to make it happen.

Tegra X1 games on Tegra k1

Hello Everyone,
Can we play Nvidia shield games on our Nvidia tablet?
Games like Resident evil 5, metal gear etc
Is there any way ?
Anyone tried?
Any help is appreciated:good:
I was wondering the same thing. Maybe if you can change the model under the android info to say shield tv. I heard about people rooting other devices to play nvidia only games like half life this way.
It would require the edit of one file to make the Google play store think the tablet is a shield TV. From there you should be able to load the games. However the tablet does not have the horsepower the TV does the k1 roughly speaking is 40% of the x1. Another potential solution would be to try sideloading the game. But depending how they optimized it and what checks the game has it may not run...
Any luck in this i have tried many things but it doesn't work

The things which I have tried is device spoofer, changing build.prop manually and using xposed with it to, but nothing is working to be able to download the games so I can use it on my k1 tablet
I think side loading is they way to do it.
