A version of Kwaak3 specifically for Xperia Play phones has been released on the Android Market!!!
This means that we can play games like Quake 3 and Open arena on our devices!
It's called Zeus Arena, it doesn't show up on the launcher atm but you can find it on the android market!
It doesn't show up on the market for me

Because this is my first post I can't post a link, how did you search for it? Did you try searching Zeus Arena?

Thank you so much!!! Best game on the xperia play Just to let people know the touch pads do work and they work quite well. I wonder if they can make it work for quake. Can they make it work for n64oid or any other emu's.

is it possible to play Quake 2 on this ?
If so, where are the instructions? I've got quake 3 to work on my x10 before but didn't control at all, will give Q3 a go again.
The app description says it will only work on Xperia Play and it only works with ioquake engine compatible games, I don't think there is a version of quake 2 that works on that engine
Zeus Arena on quake 3
Small demo of app used in quake 3 is on youtube, search for Quake 3 played on Xperia Play
Should we change the video mode to 856x480 wide screen? Or does it not make a difference?? Also a good tip! If you change step left and step right to something else beside the touch pad. The controls on the touchpad are so much better
i just bought this app, i havent got around to testing it yet, can i just use the quake 3 .pak file off my legit quake 3 on my pc?
It should work just fine with the pk3 files off your cd

A version of fpse with touchpad support is built but its only compatible with 2.3 and he doesn't want to release 2 versions.

What about the dev releases an in-app purchase with that FPSE build? If you're in touch with the dev, you can suggest him that. It would be only targeted for XPlay owners, so that other devices don't get the wrong build, and it would allow the dev not to have to release 2 versions of his app.

What do you mean only on 2.3? Doesn't every play have 2.3 anyways?

Yes. But if he adds in the support to fpse, that makes the app only compatible with Android 2.3. He does not want this (obviously) and he doesn't want to have 2 versions released on the market!

in app purchase wouldn't work here, the api version changes, meaning the main activity must be recompiled and would require most of the apk to be replaced, not possible in an in app purchase. FPSE isn't only for xperia play, so as was stated, a second build would be needed, or an alternate licensing scheme. Sadly, there's no easy solution, but its likely we'll see 2 versions on the market.

Let's hope he does it soon. He should know that any one who buys the xperia play version will already have his first one. So thats double the profit

Yeah and I can understand why he doesn't want two versions. Having to update two versions of the same app each time. Would do your head, even carrying across the XP mods to it would be annoying.

Yeah though it's like 857MB
Yeah 9mm was a decent game voice acting was bad though a funny bad
Sent from my A500 using xda premium
This is great news! 9MM is fun too, however I wish there was keyboard+mouse or gamepad support. I don't get much enjoyment out of gaming on a touchscreen (with a few exceptions, such as pinball). Shadowgun is another one I've been looking forward to. It's looking quite slick!
9mm is quite fun on my 3vo but i tried on my tab and it was nearly impossible. really wish they would add controller support for it and dead space
This would be an awesome addition to the games on my Iconia Tab...

So this has me thinking..... Nexus S is similerly specs to the Xperia PLAY and it will be getting Jelly Bean...man... For those curios unless games work great on ICS and or JB I will stick with GB as it offers, currently, the most compatibility. Still though.. if the Nexus S can get it the nwhy not the PLAY. Clearly $ony has moved on and has forgotten about our awesome little gaming phone.... guess its JB or waiting until later today to see what the supposed new ZTE Gaming phone is all about.... peace ya'll

Devs will make it happen though
Isn't it cause games wouldn't work as well otherwise?

Thats why i am still on GB and dont plan on moving to ICS. Most games are not opimized to work on ICS.
The ZTE smart phone doesn't even have a gamepad. Also only a tegra 2 processor. Bit dated. On the plus side, it is cheap though, only £189.99

THATS A GAMING PHONE!!!!!! Ummmmmm....yeah..OK. I will keep my awesome xperia play thank you very much. I was thinking it would have a slide out game pad. But a touchscreen for gaming....as all PLAY users will comment.. touchscreen gaming blows.... I'm starting to sound like TLRtheory. its OK though he's cool

i just really hope that jelly bean gets ported well to the play with project butter and stuff... + the gaming (at least emulators) works as good as with gingerbread... but i dont think its gonna happen :/
Due to project butter, jellybean seems like a major change from ICS, more so than gingerbread to ICS (not in terms of appearance)

Yeah! Looks like we will never get something that will replace our SE-XPLAYS!!!! Shame really thought we might be seeing some Tegra 3, GamePad love! But hey! Its not like we have ever had our hopes and dreams smashed before now is it!
Wasn't ever going to happen. Anyway, doesn't Sony have the patent for physical gamepad in a phone?
i heard that JB only needs 512 of ram. Does it mean that it will probably run better as ICS did?

Oh god, not this again.
The reason that the Xperia Play is not getting ICS is not because its hardware!!!!
READ THE FOLLOWING LINES PLEASE!
The reason because the Xperia Play won't get ICS goes like this:
1- Sony launches the Xperia Play.
2- Some months later, some developers like Rockstar Games and EA make some outsanding games compatible with the Xperia Play (GTAIII, Dead Space...) wich helps a lot on the sales of this smartphone.
3- Sony, wich plans to update the Xperia Play to ICS like the other Xperias from 2011, launches a beta of ICS for the Xperia Play in order to allow people to test how their apps and games run on the new version of Android.
4- The beta works great on the phone, but some games like GTA III and other important titles don't run well. These games need to be updated to work correctly on the ICS for the Xperia Play.
5- Rockstar, EA and others refuse to update their games for the Xperia Play.
6- Sony, with no option, doesn't want to lose the most important titles of the Xperia Play and decides to not update the device.
END.
Just wondering if there were any other SOG fans in here. It used to be such a great game. I just recently downloaded it again on Google play and now it doesn't work and the reloaded version doesn't work. Kinda sucks as it was as a great detailed WWII flight combat game. I tried some of the others and they just weren't the same. I'm not really into WWI games as much. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions as to a good replacement or how they stop that game free music FC on devices? Thanks!

I played SoG from the beginning of its release. As far as the Nexus 7 goes, it has never worked on it. The reason is that it is not compatible with the tegra 3, which is what we have for a graphics chip. It would require a major overhaul, and that will never happen. And as far as I can tell, it wont run on any android running 4.1.x or higher. Yes, it is a great game. But, it was released in December of 2009, and never got a good update to keep up with androids advancing versions.

Well thanks for the info. I thought I read somewhere about the Android 4.1.X or higher thing.. That's a shame. Have you found anything that satisfied that genre for you? I just haven't found it yet. Sky Gamblers is very similar but it's all WWI and that kinda limits the awesomeness.. Lol

What name did you fly with? (Cs)
No, I have found nothing of that genre to replace it for me. I didnt really like RoG either. D-pad games annoy me on devices with a full gyroscope. SoG was a perfect platform for control. Gyro and rudders.

I don't remember. I had installed on my GS2 back in the day and just recently thought "Hey that would be fun to play again" lol. These jet games suck too by the way.. Lol. Gosh makes me sad. I guess I could play the WWI games. The sad thing is that there are games out there that seem fun just mostly multi player online. I like the campaign modes. I used to have this one simulator back on pc that had this AWESOME mission were you had to protect a bunch of B-52's from the dang Germans.. Lol it was fun about 30,000 feet up planes everywhere bombs falling... Lol. Loved it.

I wanted to ask that y does our nexus 4 not have most nice games?
I saw brothers in arms 2, was not supported
Asphalt 6, not supported
Saw many more games (mostly 3d) and none were supported
Common games like asphalt 7/8 and gta were supported
Moreover, game developers have started tegra exclusive games that really makes me feel bad
Google advertised this phone as built for gaming, and we all know that our phone can easily handle tegra3 , then why can't we play those games?
Since this phone is a Google phone, I demand gaming support, at least for nexus devices
Can anyone tell me one some reasons good enough about this all??
Are there any adreno specific games??
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Well basically it's up to the game developers, which devices they say are compatible.
If they say it's not compatible with our nexus 4 then we don't get the choice to install it. simple as that. Google doesn't get a say in that matter.
Don't go throwing demands about because it just makes you look like a spoilt kid.
There are many different variants of system on chip designs used in the various phones and tablets that android runs on.
Now it's impossible to expect developers to release an optimized version of every game they release, to cater to every different variant of soc out there.
Nvidia been a big name in the graphics industry setup and made agreements with developers to make optimized versions of their games with better effects (known as THD).
Now if you want somewhere to complain. I suggest you either go straight to the developers ask why they aren't supporting this device. Our go to Qualcomm and ask why they aren't pushing for optimized games on their platform.
Complaining here will result in nothing but people flaming you.

Kainy doesn't emulate anything, it's a remote desktop solution that's optimized for gaming. You connect to your computer and control it remotely while it runs the game.
