Neocore, Asphalt, HD Video, and PSX4Droid playing FFVII
tired of all the FF vids on youtube. someone should test out GT or TekKen.. only tests I see are on the Droid X
Would be nice to see something other than FF7 but I can't see other PSX games being more demanding.
Swyped from my CM6 EVO.
Unfortunately I think even the Epic will choke on some of the PSX games just because of how poorly the emulator is coded. I haven't seen a single phone run Symphony of the Night smoothly... and it's a 2D castlevania game =\

And a damn good one at that. Give the emulator some time though and I'm sure Zod will clear a lot of that up.

Working on it a Tekken test. GT = Gran Turismo?
yea gran turismo.. well all emulators are pretty hard on the cpu, maybe overclocking it helps?

It helps that these things can be safely overclocked to 1.6 GHz

I'd like to see your source of info for that. from what I've read, it can be safely overclocked to 1.2 GHz. 1.6 GHz is possible but thus far unstable.
The guy who overclocked my Captivate to 1.2 GHz said "I'll be able to safely push this to 1.6 GHz." Of course 1.6 will require more power, but hey it sounds crazy cool.

Hello everyone i have got a little trick to play gba games on our htc touch viva which has a low processor....
Gba game lovers might have tried many many emulator for windows mobile to play but i know none of them properly emulate if they do also then also the game will lag really too much, i have myself experienced.
But no more lags you can play gba games on viva without any lag i myself tested.....
Now how to do that? Simple see here.
If you found that trick useful (That is smoother than ever gameplay) plz leave a comment/question anything you wish there in techz.in or here.
but with no sound? right?

Yes obviously with no sound as its running on android and android for opal still doesn't have sound hopefully musikmonk and other developers would bring it in next version. Just try that thing iam confident that you will see a major improvement definitely. And then post here how was you exp (you can post on that site also).
duh i just overclock and kill backgroung process which are useless then just play...it works for me ....btw i overclock to 276...so is the method u posted superior
too bad Gameboid isn't free or open source.

The weird thing is that on Android, we're actually underclocking the cpu on Android and the game speed is still better than game speed on wm6.x with overclocking.

There's a free version called Gameboid Lite. It's missing game state saving. But normal game saving works fine.
Yes muskimonk even if you have underclocked android still gba games run much smoother i have wrote the reason on techz.in --- Simply android uses the hardware efficiently than wm, oh yes i forgot there is gameboid lite version..
Anyone else tried PSXDroid on their G2?
I tried playing marvel vs capcom, chrono cross, and x=men vs street fighter.
Im using PSX4DROID v 1.3
The sound is super laggy and glitched and games are not running at 100%. However, i have read many comments taht say v1.3 is just a horrible version of the emulator. Anyone else playing and having a good experience?

With sound on, everything is very laggy. but i just saw this video on youtube and his PSX4DROID emulator is running much faster, so i think its the version i have.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaYks8qHD1w&feature=related
Well try the older version... because you know its NOT the phone. The G2 is the most powerful android phone out there, period. Let us know your results... I was thinking about getting it but heard its too buggy for use.
When I first got the G2 I tried out Chrono Cross on psx4droid. It ran very well, although I did have the sound off (not a fan of annoying sounds while playing games on my phone).
But after updating psx4droid from the market yesterday, the emulator runs very poorly. Hopefully the dev undoes whatever he changed so that it will start running well again.

Yeah, it might be the update. From past experience with many emulators, sound off always runs better. The problem is not that the g2 can't handle ps games but it has to emulate them in a player than runs inside android if that makes any sense. In other words native games like nova or heavy gunner which are graphic equivilant to ps games run better because they run pretty much natively. Where ps games are ran inside a emulator coded to run natively in android. I know that explanation is poor but you get the point. The ps emulator is relatively new too compared to the others. But ps games are pushing the limits... have you heard if any N64 emulators that run well or at all yet?
well, either find a better warez source to update to 1.5, or stop being cheap and buy the app from market; sound is crappy, but when it is off ff9 and chrono cross run very smooth

Newest ver on the market is 1.5 (you know that though since you purchased it )
Ran 1.5 today w/ ROMS on class(6) and it was about the same performance I believe: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=802147
Haven't tested with sound much, but on my G2 with psx4droid 1.1 I've been playing:
FFVII
FF Tactics
Megaman Legends
all with no problems, great playability
I purchased it (support your developers, anusholes), but it does seem laggy and sound is glitchy when I play parappa the rappa. Haven't tried any other games.
I have had extensive experience comparing the galaxy phones to the g2 performance in psx4droid. First of version 1.1 is the fastest. It is also the buggiest. On psx4droid 1.1 the g2 does very playable speeds on all games but really heavy polygonal games like fighters and whatnot. Zodttd released versions 1.3 and 1.4 that were much slower while trying to fix bugs. Now 1.5 is the best balance. Only slightly slower than 1.1 but slow
enough to make a lot of games unenjoyable on the g2 while the galaxy phones are able to keep up. Side by side they are like 30 percent faster than the g2 in psx4droid. Im hoping for root soon so we can overclock.

Thanks, this was very helpful
i'm currently running Tmobile G2 overclocked to 1.45 GHZ using a root module, and unfortunately psx4droid 1.61 is playing horridly aweful =(. This was an upgrade from 1.5, which played phenomenially better than 1.61. In 1.5 if the CPU could not process enough power (logically), the game would be a little slower, however 1.61 has sound that is TOO FAST for ALL games, with slow graphics (wtf)?. So in other words, My sound for the game is INCREDIBLY fast, while the in game graphics are sloooww to a crawl. Is there anyone that's willing to host the psx4droid 1.5 apk for me to obtain? I've bought this emulator expecting only improvement, not drawback =(
Has anyone used psx4droid on their Desire HD? I can't help but notice choppy response and laggy gameplay, although it seemed to run much better on the desire and galaxy S. Any ideas? Has anyone tried?
The emulator runs horribly terrible for its V2 version, framerate runs at 30-40 fps and occasionally dips to 20ish. V1 1.7 runs much better but still the framerate seems to have more room for improvement.

Totally agree! I experience the the same frame drop.
But in my opinion the problem comes from the roms. I tried dozens of roms, they all make my HD slower, I don't know why.
The first rom 1.32 (when I bought the phone) was the best!
It runs great on mine. Have u got anti alias turn on? I found that Rele slows it down.

Where is that setting?? I see nothing about AA in options.
For me it runs quite crap aswell. I was looking at videos of other phones and it runs much better on SGS. Maybe it's not optimized for DHD?
Anyway, Fpsece has been announced and it will be released soon. This is a port of a WM6 PS1 emulator which is extremelly good on WM platform and looking at videos, this will be the one to play PS1 games on Android.
Check it out: http://pocketnow.com/android/legendary-fpsece-playstation-emulator-ported-to-android
When I ran the free / lite version, I actually thought it was somewhat playable ... but then I bought the full version and that seems to run very slow .....
Hopefully when we get the Playstation Suite / Store and Sony's official emulator, things will work fine. The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play runs the same Qualcomm CPU / GPU combo as the DHD ....
I also have the same problem, runs very slow.
We won'y have to use psx4droid much longer. A developer has been working on this:
http://pocketnow.com/android/legendary-fpsece-playstation-emulator-ported-to-android
runs pretty well on my DHD, as mentioned earlier turning off anti-aliasing helps alot and overclocking to 1.5ghz helps alot
I've tested this is on FFVII & MGS

Yes thats true, but until the playstation suite is actually released, we have to use an alternative.
i tried the v3.0.7 on my dhd with a bichon rom (v3.3). it doesn't run at all ! i tried .bin and .iso image, but nothing works. Is there anything to do ?
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

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

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.
I put Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 in my Galaxy 3.
Loading goes fine, and the game seems to be ok.
When the match starts though it works very very slow.
Why??
It's a slow phone mate!
try using chain3d, works like a charm to my PES 2011 game
instal chainfire3d and if u want overclock your phone
and what values should I put in overclock??? how much?
It's not THAT slow...
form what i know it doesnt even have a graphics processor, all the graphics is done by the cpu. i play pes @1300mhz and it is stable and it doesnt heat up much, just gets warm to touch. but make sure you dont play for a long time like 2h with 1300mhz because it will melt xD

wow a 667mhz processor overclocked to 1300mhz. Thats incredible. Is that even possible?
