I think Android games is better than PSP games
And you should have all of them
Thanks
Edited : The Sims 3 HD download file :
Here, the Sims 3 HD of my Xperia X10.
I have backup it with Titanium Backup.
So you must download and install Titanium Backup before you can install+play The Sims 3 HD.
Titanium Backup can be found on the Market (rooted required)
Here the link of The Sims 3 HD : NO WAREZ
After you download it, you must extract the content of your downloaded file to sd card:/TitaniumBackup folder (if not found it, you can create a folder with name "TitaniumBackup" on your sd card)
Then, go to Titanium Backup app, and then restore The Sims 3 from Backup/Restore tab.
Enjoy your The Sims 3 HD

Just search gamelofts smartphone site its prob there,or just google the apk you want and install. No play now needed

PSP is so much better. For example: Persona 3! All the TALES of games on PSP.
Dynasty warrior multi raid 1 and 2!
metal gear solid peace keeper!
and DYSSIDIA!!! BEST GAME EVER!
I love valkyria chronicle which is coming soon.
You only live in a world with phone games, you never have the true taste of real gaming yet! Most of the games you posted up there would most likely get a highest score of 5/10 @ ign. almost all of them are crap in ps3/PC/xbox360 version.

LOL sorry about my statements, guys.
I have Sony PS 1, PlayStation 2, X-Box, Sony PSP, and Nintendo DSi too, but in same case.. like NFS Shift
I just compare NFS Shift PSP game and NFS Shift ANdroid game, so i have a conclussion that NFS Shift Android game is better than NFS Shift PSP game.
I love play Dissidia, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Prince of Persia, PES 2010 on my PSP too

when i try to install nfs shift my phone say's free up some space on your phone and try again
but my memory card still got 6gb

may i knw how much nfs costs??????

I don't see any games on my Play now.

Nfs shift you must download frim playnow, no illegal versions. Everbody with playnow issues google for playnow.apk

Galaxy s games

Can galaxy s support games like Iphone 4?
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk

It does support some of the same games like Asphalt and Angry birds
but in general Android isnt ripe for gaming yet

It doesn't have too many games yet, but there are quite a few good ones. Android development does seem to be accelerating actually.
One engine which might be popular in the future (ID rage) has been ported to iPhone but carmack isn't committed to porting to Android yet, so it's hard to know what the future is like, but Android is getting pretty cool

You guys think 3.0 gingerbread could do it?

It has nothing to do with the OS ahmadzais and everything to do with the developer support.

Mostly.. If Carmack does finish rage for Android though, that will be cool.

There are plently of top games on android and many play better then an iphone (3gs 4g is fine).
These are the main games I have on my galaxy S at the moment, they all play perfect and some are very good graphics. And this is only a few of the 100s of games available for Android....
Krazy Kart - Galaxy Freebie, this is a mario kart style racer with powerups etc

Asphalt5 - Galaxy Freebie, a 3D racer with high frame rate and good graphics
Angry Birds - Free from Market, a good puzzle game, the object is to kill pigs with a variety of birds shot from a catapult
Tiki Tower - Free from Devs website, a puzzle games the object is to get all the Monkeys from A to B whilst collecting all the bananas
Real Football - £3 from Gameloft, A footbal sim what more can I say
Hexen II - Free supports full controls (must own full game for pak files), plays just like the original on the pc though controls can be tricky
Guitar Hero World Tour - Can't remember where I got this from, only supports 3 frets and seems to want to download each song as and when you play it but does play ok.
Heroes of Sparta - £3 from Gameloft, very good 3D adventure game big swords and lots of blood
PapaStacker - Free from Market, the object of the game is to stack blocks of various shapes, and sizes and the stack must balance before the time runs out to progress
Zenonia - Fairly cheap from Market, an RPG game but I haven't given it a proper whirl yet
Avatar - £3 from Gameloft, 3D game with little simularity to the movie
Snesoid - Get your roms out plays all, use the lite version save your money
Gameboid - Again use lite version
Dungeon Hunter - £3 from Gameloft, and RPG based on lvling a character of your choice with XP, weapons, items etc one of my fav games atm
Kwaak3 - Quake3 Arena, still working on getting BT keyboard working with this, but the game itself plays very well
PSX Emu - Playing Final Fantasy VIII on this atm works perfect.
Sandstorm - £3 from Gameloft, this is a "COD" fps style game.

I agree, Its not up to our system as if you look very closely iphone 4 and sgs almost share the exact hardware. Their A8 cortex cpu is actualy a hummingbird cpu with minor changes being ours is just a little more powerful (just a little) and Samsung actualy builds the cpu for appl

OP: Emexrulsier has covered most of the good stuff, but there are some more like Fruit Ninja, Abduction 1 & 2 and a few more games from Gameloft.
The games run just as well or in some cases better than on the iPhone (e.g. Fruit Ninja works a lot better on my Galaxy S compared to my iPhone 3G).

Large Increase in Games

Hey XDAers,
Don't know if any of you guys noticed this guys but there has been a huge increase in Gameloft games available on the Marketplace for the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
For some reason a lot of them do NOT show up in the marketplace search except they are easily found when in one application and can be perused through them through the "attached" recommended applications. To start look for: N.O.V.A (You must have the periods in-between the letters or it will not show up in search).
From here you can see the Related files of Order & Chaos, Asphalt 5, Backstab HD, and these have related Apps for even more HD Tablet games. You can also access all EA Games games if you click on the Asphalt 5 Free Game and this gives you a related to NFS Shift and Worms and Scrabble.
Again, none of these show up in the search of the market but they are available to download, install, and run very well on the Tablet.
I'm debating sending an email to Google to figure this out but a lot of applications are now available that were not able to be seen before.
Games I have found so far:
- Need for Speed Shift
- Asphalt 5
- Asphalt 6
- Order & Chaos Online
- N.O.V.A 2
- Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus
- Backstab HD
- Sims 3
- Fifa 2010
- Pro Evolution 2011
- Worms
- Tetris
Again, it seems that a lot of these are only available by looking at the "Related apps" section of the application (all the way at the end).

Slight Update:
Some of the games are noe displaying. "File can not be found" when trying to download them from the Market.

Have you tried to download any of those Gameloft HD titles? I know they don't show up as an available download even if you go to their site with the tablet, only new game on there I"ve seen lately is Uno...

I was able to purchase and install NOVA2 from the market! I'd been running the Xoom version I had purchased directly from Gameloft prior.

lucky you, I don't see Order & Chaos in the Market.

Did you go the route I described in the title? You MUST go in through N.O.V.A 2, you can NOT just type it in and hope that it is available.

to see what game is compatible with a device go here
http://www.gameloft.com/android-hd-games/
and select the device from the list
i only see UNO HD as a new added compatible game
before there was only
- N.O.V.A. HD
- HERO OF SPARTA
- SPIDERMAN
- ASPHALT 6

Did you actually read the thread or did you just come in here to post that and ignore everything else? Not to sound like an ass but I am playing N.O.V.A 2 downloaded from the market with absolutely NO problem on my Tab 10.1.
I mean hell, go to: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftN2HM&feature=search_result
It has it listed as compatible which it does not have on their site.

The NVIDIA Tegra Zone app looks like it might assist in finding games too. Just installed but haven't played with it:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nvidia.tegrazone&feature=search_result

I was able to download Asphalt 5 but when I launched it, the game said it was not compatible.
I was really hoping since I paid for the NFS and Sims 3 on my phone that I could at least get NFS working. I tried sideloading both apps before but it wouldn't work cause EA blocked the download to incompatible devices. So I loaded the download files from my phone to the tablet and it worked! But the game itself would not render correctly .
Hopefully this will change in the future.

I'm retarded, I was looking at the wrong area.

Yes the games are coming! SIMS 3 is horrible on Android though. Just my opinion. I can't wait for OnLive to get over to tablets. That game they demoed at E3 "From Dust" in on XBLA and it is pretty sweet. Would love to play it on my tablet.

Just a word of advice, if you go togamelofts website and say you have a zoom, you will find all of the compatible games. I don't know why gameloft won't show all games for the tab.

they dont mark them as compatible because they force close, with final TW update here now i hope they fix that quick

I have Order & Chaos already on my phone, but have been dying to get it on my tab 10.1. I followed your steps, but when I click "install" I get "the requested item could not be found". So I decided to purchase it under my wife's account and when I click "purchase" I get "the item you were attempting to purchase could not be found. This is killing me!

What games do you think SHOULD be on the Play?

Just as the title says, what do you think would be a great game or games to have on this phone, but try to be realistic, for example, don't say Mass Effect 3 or anything of that sort, that's what OnLive is for. I'll go first.
I think Grandia 2 would be a great game to have on the Play, it was originally for the Dreamcast. It even looks like it could be an Android title in the first place IMO.

I love Grandia 2. I still play it on my dreamcast and I have all the grandia games. Ps1 Francis, Sega Saturn grandia. Grandia 2 for DC and PS2. Grandia xtreme grandia 3. I would not mind seeing Albert Odyssey from the Sega Saturn on the xperia play. Not the best graphics but great story.

Precisely Grandia, like other turn-based RPG or strategy game, is the kind of game that I wouldn't mind seeing in any Android phone, but which wouldn't fully use the virtues of the gamepad. In fact I think those kinds of games which don't require reflexes or speed of mashing buttons are better suited for the touchscreen, provided that you solve the issue of moving the characters. Games like Final Fantasy Tactics would be very nice to see properly ported to an Android phone.
A good fighter (that excludes that abortion called Fight Game Heroes which came about some time ago) is something we're sorely lacking, and which would use it. The Soul Calibur series would be legendary, a dream come true.

I would like to see a version of uncharted like the ps vita one

I decided to look back on this topic.
I would love to have Doom 3 on the Android. That would be sweet. The requirements aren't even high at all (may need an OC'd Play since 1.5GHz is the minimum). The demo was also released for Linux, yet it was most likely closed source so that wouldn't work. Just a cool thought.

Tegra games/exynos

Missed having THD games,Even though the Asus TF700 had so many issues,it was tegra.
? Will Exynos have a games catalog like Tegra or when would we sell those THD games coming to Exynos....

I would rather not see Exynos-specific games... would rather see games with enhanced graphics that push Exynos and other similarly powerful hardware to the limit, but also be able to play on any other device. THD/Tegra games are just some cheap selling point for hardware imo, and just bad for other devices in-general.
I bought THD versions of games and then ended up getting something with better hardware then Tegra 3, and can't even play those said THD games... it's stupid. And to top it off, I'd have to rebuy the non-THD version of those games...

I think Google have to fix their PlayStore with Apps working and All Devices,especially Nexus device...

There will be no catalog for exynos devices.
Tegra games will not work with the exynos, until the app gets updated to support it.
Some apps have exclusivity deals with nvidia, so depending on the deals and whether they are time dependant, will depend on whether they are updated to support non tegra games.
And THD apps are horrible, i have sonic Ep2 thd version for my N7 but that wont work for my N4/N10, yet it wants me to buy again the normal version so i cant even play this game on any device. Likewise i bought shadowgun for my GS3 and when i got the N7 turns out theirs a THD version for that, that i miss out on unless i buy the same game again.

I wish they're just do OPTIMIZED FOR TEGRA 3, and Exynos and etc...
Like if you have a quad core device with a top notch tegra3/4 equal GPU than you device would just get some additional code or something but this making a game THD exclusive is B.S. like it was mentioned if you have a tegra tablet n non tegra phone like me you either buy it twice or blackm rt it up.
I used chainfire, device spoofer and such to make my HP TOUCHPAD w/android able to run thd games.so as long as ya got dual core you're atleast equal to tegra2 or 3 idk....but I know my touchpad which is liken to ipad2 could handle thd apps. Not all but most.
And w/ dead trigger if you change some number in a file you can make it use thd enhanced features, the water running down screen n blood I believe. I did it on my gnex-toro.
I have nex7 and love it Peerfect for gaming. Like a touchscreen.controller, I wanna get those stickies you can put over on-screen buttons for a more actual feel. I know we can use ps3 controller or oth 3rd party android bt ones. But I like touchscreen. And holding my game up close.
I sold my ps3 cause I mostly play on my gnex, touchpad, ipad4, nexus7 I really see the ps4 generation being the last console generation.

THD is a blight on the Play Store, introducing fragmentation for no good reason other than corporate greed. It introduces REAL fragmentation, compared the fake "omg why are there so many screen sizes?!?" fragmentation sites paid off by Apple seem to love pointing out. It'd be a sad day if other SoC vendors decided to follow NVidia's path, as it would really hurt Android's credibility to most consumers.
