I don't know about you guys... but for me graphical power was the only thing my Evo needed to be the perfect device.
Anyway, I just upgraded my CM6 from 8/24 nightly to Cm6- Blue Beast based on 9/21 nightly.
I can play Asphalt 5 Demo and Toon Wars Lite without too many hiccups.
The lag has been minimized quite a bit.... to the point where I'd actually play the game.
So I did some benchmarks...
Neomark, Nenamark, and some others came up the same.
Quadrant - the 3d benchmarks that include the 3d first person shooter got more fps than usual.
Then I did AN3dBenchmark... I got a score of 5620... compare that to 4700 on nightlies a month ago... and 4100 on Android 2.1.
So check it out... I hope that once we get the Dell Acer Liquid driver ports/optimization ... from the project that has been going around... we could finally fill in the final gap the Evo lacked - graphical power.

The Asphalt 5 demo from the market is not optimized for Snapdragon/Adreno. The full version runs beautifully even on stock sense. Adreno is quite capable, you know. Games just need to be optimized for it. See this video I made http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t87wJmhIw3o running on a stock htc rom.

They had some improvement here and there... but then again, I really have no idea what that means for us Snapdragon folk.
go to gameloft.com on your phone's browser and download the N.O.V.A. demo. You'll find the EVO has PLENTY of graphical power!!
Plays smooth as butter and looks even sharper on the EVO than the screenshots I took give it credit for, also Dungeon Hunter, Gangstar, HAWX and Hero of Sparta are all great. Those you won't find on the market though, Gameloft has some kind of issue with the market not sure why. Also Crusade of Destiny on the market is worth checking out.(http://img4.immage.de/1407890mzl.tofnjqiu.480x48075.jpg)
EDIT: just realized zeuzinn posted a NOVA video youtube link, I had assumed it was an asphalt video
I tried out the new game called Dungeon Defenders the first wave
its the first game using unreal engine on android and I used darkstone's superram
its really laggy
will there be anyway to make it run smooth or is this hd2's hardware limitation?
p.s/
anyway my personal opinion to superRAM.. is bad..only good thing about it is the booting speed. May I know why you guys call it super fast other then booting speed? because the previous rom I used, I used launcher pro and if I use launcher pro everything looked hyper fast, and I thought it would be hyper-hyper fast on superram but it was the same, so I was like.. ok.. then let me try live wall paper and speed. but it was same like previous rom choppy when opening application box. In other words nothing different.( but for quadrant score it scored higher then last rom) however game ran slower, like zenonia 3
previous rom ran without slowing down of speed but on this rom it is unplayable.
i am changing it.. No offense please.. its just my personal experience..

I thought it was tolerable. I am also using superRAM. I suspect the lag is due to the lack of RAM for the game. Maybe you should disable the RAM boot? I suspect that would improve the game performance and maybe overclock it to above 1Ghz. I am lazy to change my ROM again.
Use moto touch 4G Rom its best for 3d games nenamark 20.5, while superman I get 15.4
yeah dungeon defenders a bit laggy i use mdj froyo hd revo 1.2 with hastarin 8.6.
even oc to 1228 still lags a bit

Ye you are right, on ram builds only the navigating on the device is super fast, but graphics etc are choppy, like there is some display driver missing.. at least it felt that way last time i checked.. but the idea of ram builds is great. the disadvantage is, that you can only use an ugly no features builds for now :/
can anyone make a video to show us how laggy the game on HD2 is?
I tested it in Mdeejay 4.6 HD it was awesome. But in Gingerbread rc5 it lagged
oh no! I just bougth the Dungeon Defenders and have the darkstone 1.5 =/

if you have the pro version it's pretty fast.
Can someone make a video of Dungeon defenders on a DHD build ?
Thanks
on the requirements it seems that the hd2 just makes the minimum..

well ya know , its something for something
i'm intrested too.. i've mdj gingerbread cyanogen mod 7 based v2.6 on nand (very very very great ROM)... but dungeon defenders is unplayable.. like 10 fps.. i'd know if it's my problem or it's normal... can someone post a video with a "game-friendly" Rom?
i know that HD2 has all the requierments to run great!
Dugeon defenders will never run fine or ok on the hd2, walking around and stuff is ok(about 10-15 fps thats what i guess the game runs about) but as soon as monsters come close to you its slows to a crawl 4-5 fps, the adreno 200 is just not powerfull enough to handle dungeon defenders, after all its the crapiest of all mobile gpus(with open gl es 2.0 support). if you whant to run dungeon defendr at a playable frame rate get ether an sgs(best choice of currrent phone until tegra 2 based phones come out) or any omap cpu based phones ie: cliq2, driod,milestone etc etc. btw out of topic but, the new Modern Combat 2 Black pegasus game, runs awesomely great on the snapdraogn devices, id say around 40-45 fps. so yea if you got some bucks buy it.
I feel like a big part of some of us getting the Epic was the fact it had an excellent Gpu and would make a great gaming device. Now that its out and we have our froyo, I think its a good time to start a thread about gaming on our phones. I think we should post vids of games running on our phones and share it with the world so they can see how powerful our phones really are. Im going to start getting a bunch of games and recording it, listing whether im overclocked or not and what rom i was running at the time. Feel free to add you own videos and comments
Heres a few to start off with: I will try to update regularly. Im also open to suggestions
Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus - Midnight rom v5.1 - no overclock
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGzkIQZAYoM

Mario 64 running on N64oid - ACS rom(dont remember which one ) - no overclock

Zelda 64 OOt running on N64oid - ACS rom(dont remember which one ) - no overclock
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN2iTbSfte8
New Vids: 4-10-11
Metal Gear Solid PSX running on Fpse - Midnight rom v5.1 - overclocked to 1.3 ( runs the same at 1 ghz)

I converted my phone to ext 4, I am able to play perfect dark longer without too many crashes, and goldeneye is smoother at 1.3ghz. still testing between kernels to see which is best..
You can probably use the video option of the shoot me app to record the game directly from your phone. Probably get better vid quality

really.. i was looking for a video capture app. ill check it out. thanks
just tried it.. it works ok.. but the videos arent smooth so you cant really get the full affect of the game
I think the way you are going it now is good, shows how the controls work with the on-screen controls.
ok so F Zero (n64oid) at 0 frame skips with SFR ext 4 and Vision Kernel 1.0 (set at 1.3ghz on demand, performance and 1.4ghz crashes on me) runs really well.
also, Goldeneye is now playable! , still choppy here n there, but much much less than before. it does depend on your rom, I tried a few other goldeneye roms from before. I dont think this site lets me post it up so...
the dump is located in this forum under Xperia Play, be sure to download it. Downloading mine right now, hopefully we can use their PSX emu, games, etc.
Also with Goldeneye and Pdark, the games tend to make the emu crash or become frozen. My kernel didnt like it either so had tons of data corruption I think, just switched back to twlight kernel. If your phone can handle the vision kernel, then use that for gaming..
Goldeneye doesn't really crash for me but it gets REALLY slow after a certain point.. as for psx, I've been using FPSE and it works pretty dam good. I've been playing metal gear solid perfectly.. controls are a little tricky at first though

Yah sandstorm is pretty good. Its the version of the game i posted. As for wrestling you best bet is getting the n64 emulator orbthe psx emulator and getting a wrestling rom. Granted the characters will be pretty old

Yes it is but Piggy Drop is my hands down favorite game in the Market. Call of Duty is very bad ass as well.
So do most of these games run smoothly?

Even half a year from now, the Epic will still be near the top tier of phone hardware. There are actually games out there that run well ONLY on phones with the Epic's specs. Market reviews will show you that pretty quickly.
Hi
Just a warning, do not use the debug.sf.hw=1...i have been using this and got serious lag on real soccer 2012 for no reason(i am on oxygen 2.3.2 gingerbread) so i did a google search but nobody complained about lag on this game. i went back and used my build.prop backup and disabled this tweak and now the game runs much better.
I have only noticed on this game but i havent been playing a lot so be careful because it might also affect other games
So i was wondering for hours what are the most common or better most preferred rom and kernel configuration and their settings for gaming(not benchmarks) most people using for smooth gameplay and for what games.So i decided to create a thread for everyone to post their personal config on gaming.
So i will start:
I use cleanrom 2.6 with latest elementalx with stock values and gboost enabled and deadline
i get some lags playing modern combat 4 and other heavy games.I could never achieve a steady framerate. Can you recommend something? Im also a little afraid of oc :silly:
So whats your benches on gaming on your roms or kernels?
P.S. Gameloft Sale!
Following games are 0.99 cents:
Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour
9mm
The Amazing Spiderman
Order and Chaos Online
The Adventures of Tintin
Gangstar Vegas
The Dark Knight Rises
sorry for oot, but try install 'heroes of order and chaos'. It's free and good game. Can you pls give feedback whether it runs smooth or laggy, because I want to buy nexus 7
I'm currently using stock ROM w/ ElementalX kernel 2.6. CPU @ 1.7Ghz, GPU @ 490Mhz.
I've yet to find any Android games that don't run smoothly and I also have no problems emulating PSP, DS, PSX or N64 (some 64 run a little slower but still playable at 20-30 FPS).
P.S. thanks for the heads up on GL sale items, looks like its time to jump into Order and Chaos.

edit: btw there are rumors for a new nexus tablet coming so i dunno if you want to wait.
