(Q) Sony Xperia Play sideloading games? - Xperia Play General

Any chance you can sideload games to your sony xperia play? Not just android games, but the ones in that playstation store?

Sorry if this sounds stupid but what is sideloading games?

haha, for example if you have an android app on your computer and want to put it on your phone, you can do what is called sideloading with applications such as droid explorer to install it on your phone. (There are many other ways to sideload)

can you explain a bit more? install on your sd from your computer then pop it into your phone?

Get the .apk and install it from the phone, if that's what you're taking about.

Sideloading; installing apps not from the market...

Just copy the .apk to your sd card, and use a file explorer, tap on the apk and the installer will pop up

Here you have an example of a quite nice game to sideload: http://www.wormux.org/phpboost/download/download.php

I should have phrased my question better; are the playstation games such as fifa 10 .apk files as well?

well in my experience alot of the games u get a small apk file 5-10mb
the u have to download the games data after u install the game
which can be up to 1200mb is the biggest ive had to do so far.

So the original question should've gone something like this... "Can I illegally download games and install them on my Xperia Play. "

If you are talking about Playstation 1 games then yes, via PSX emulator. If you are talking about PSP and PSN games then no. Sony may port them in the future. Which I hope they port GOW.

Yes, they are. In case you wipe the games' data they'll download it again next time you fire up the app.

Psx 4 droid

Can anyone help explain to me how to get psx 4 droid working on x10. I have downloaded the lite version of the emulator and paid for the psx rom buddy.
I have downloaded worms world party and air hocky through the rom buddy and as soon as i try and lauch them the screen flashs black and then returns to the screen where you choose which game to load.
Am i missing some data or info? Iv tried emailing the devs directly for both psx 4 droid and psx rom buddy and not had a responce from either.
When trying to download command and conquer after a while the screen goes black, nothing responds and only way to regain control of my phone is removing then reinserting the battery.
If anyone could supply clear instructions or point me in the right direction it would be much appriciated.

Most games need multi-touch to play. If you have a Wii remote, download the wii remote app from the market and then you should be able to play all games

I'm gonna give it ago tomorow and if it works I'll be looking into getting a wii controller esp for games. This has gotta be the best way round lack of MT for now.
When the update for DNLA update is out will be able to use it to play games on a DNLA tv?
I really hope this will be possible, a completely wireless gaming experience with an x10 at the heart of it.

Let's persuade gameloft to update their games for the X10.

Since some games like Nova and Modern combat: Sandstorm don't work on our phones, even with the update, if we show enough interest, then they might update them to run on our phones.
Please post here, if you want this to happen.
(You have to set up an account first though...)
http://forum.gameloft.com/index.php/topic,5358.0.html
Or, if anyone knows any people we could contact, please list their details here.
P.S. Sorry if this should have been posted in the Themes and Apps section; I wasn't sure whether to put it there, since this isn't really about a theme or app you can obtain.
Anyway, thanks for reading this.
Asphalt, Fifa 10 aint working for me either
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
Asphalt5, Dungeon Hunter, Hero of Sparta, Lets Golf, Avatar, Tom Clancys HAWX are working, Nova, Assassins Creed didnt work for me
Sandstorm works. It just that its almost unplayable because of the lack of MT (Can't walk and aim at the same time)
Asphalt 5 works.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I also want to see Nova. But, its a game made for multi-touch. Not sure how playable it will be on the X10.

Yeah, it works for me too.
Allready worked on Android 1.6, now even better.
I think they'll work very crappy because we don't have multitouch and it's a must for good gameplay in some of their games.
The better opetion would be to have them allow mapping of hardware buttons to try and use outside MT!
Dungeon hunter only kind of works. You cannot switch the controls to the control stick which is infinitely better than point and tap

Yo mate,i visited ur link but umm,i couldnt start Gangstar on the X10 mate ,nor Avatar...i mean they do start but the graphics are black objects and screwed textures (Its not my phone : All other games work like a charm).
(I also saw that i had the files on the SD from my old Gangstar so i didnt need to redownload,could those be the fault?)
Same problem here with Assassin's Creed.. black textures..

Fifa2012 is out!

.... and free too!
The game looks awsome! Just like the PSP version, if not better! I am amased by the graphics!
You can find it under "Free EA Games" from the Xplay Launcher. Enjoy!
It takes about 1gb of space though so make sure you have adequate space for the game.
Ya just got this. wow graphics are wicked and its only for the play right now

i dun like playing with the analog ....
does this work with cm7? do the touchpads work?
It's pretty nice, analogue controls work well and it seems very comprehensive. Only issue is the slowdown, which is sometimes crippling. Anyone else getting it?

Fifa 12 has great graphics and gameplay but has no gameplay modes very disapointing, in fifa 10 you have manager mode , career mode and be a pro , will there be any updates to this
the game is awesome and better than any soccer game for xperia play.
I don't like that I can't switch the controls to alternate. I hate playing the classic controls im used to PES. So I shoot with square and cross with circle. Besides that the game is great. Is there no multiplayer like in fifa 10?
Sent from my R800a using xda premium
I have had a little go of it its not very impressive (Cannot find a way to use the dpad instead of the touchpads which sucks).
PES has always been a better game (Since SNES days).
(Don't really care about graphics).
Don't really like football games either really.
This game is the best for the play hands down

I think he means black market.... If you have Xperia Play, you do not need to get it on the black market as it is free anyway.

AFAIK EA said that they were "only" releasing for Xperia 2011 devices.
All of them have an Adreno GPU and are armv7 so if your phone shares the same GPU and architecture you could run it - but EA won't give it to you. If you want it, get an Xperia.

Im just curious if anyone has tried any of the other psxperia apps sony orignallly provided to see if they increase compatibility?

If you mean other games to use as the base APK to make the file, the answer is that out never worked with them.
out never worked with them?
and i mean the games because the emulator is in the games not psxperia

How to change your MOJO to a great game console

Hi all,
I just found an amazing app, which makes your MOJO look like a game console. You can navigate trough your games using the controller and the app downloads big covers for all of your games. This is pretty amazing :laugh: Also it has a list of games that work with a gamepad. Take a look at it:
KLICK
The app can be downloaded from the page above, here is the direct link:

Have fun!
nice find.
Do you know if all the games listed work with the mojo?

I just tried it out for a few minutes and not all the games work with the mojo. If you click on a game in the list, you will be ported to the google play store where you can download the game.

If you're rooted then you probably won't need to sideload. As to whether they work, that very much depends on the game.
have to try this thanks.. and yes get rooted well worth it most apps and games show up havent tried mm3. which added more support
