can i play with another play? - Xperia Play General

Hi,
i got my experia play on saturday and since then i have been fighting with my wife for use of it she is a massive ps1 nut and loves games such as crash and kula world.
this has got to the point where she is tempted to sell her 3GS and get a Play herself..... what im wondering is if she does this is there anyway that we could play together is some sort of link on any games/emulators/mmo's?
if so how easy would it be as i know a lot of mmo games put you in a random server
cheers

Most Gameloft games have built in multiplayer functionality both over the internet by WiFi or Local WiFi, so you could play those local. Just included with the Play both Asphalt 6 and Star Battalion support this. As for the PS1 ports both if and when they get released by Sony or by the emulators I don't think Sony will develop this capability and I don't think the Emulators can do it yet.

Yeah, a couple of gameloft games allow multiplayer, and if I remember correctly FPSE has some multiplayer support (tekken and the like) I don't know of any other emulators that do though.
Anyone else have anything to add?

quite a few games including the ps suite games and fpse emulated games allow for 2 players, infact i kicked my brothers arse on hogs of war the other day

I don't think blutooth will be an option for multiplayer... but wifi seems to work. however... i don't have a second set to test it... (the only person I know has one is a girl... not a tech savvy by any means... and I won't waste myteaching her), all my buddies tried to get one the week after I got it... but the price already skyrocket'd ( I got it for 80 USD on a 18 month 30 USD non-data plan, now it is 400 Dlls with the same plan) I GOT LUCKY!!!

Is anyone else having trouble accessing the links to download the games?
My handset isn't loading the 'nopuk.netsizeonline.com' site which enables you to download the relevant files.

Busy changing their credit card details
For the past few hours the site hasn't worked. I managed to start to download the APK for a game before I was having problems, however it failed.
I can now access the site again, but all games are showing as £3. What's going on? I assume the offer has finished, but I wasn't able to take advantage of it because the website wasn't working... :-(
Also worked fine for me, have an account, so just a simple login and one click buy :-D Got three games...
Regards Dousan...
I got me a fivers worth, thanks for the heads up.
anyone else bought assassins creed and thought £1 was way to much to pay!
ive had more entertaining farts.
Thanks for the heads up, got another couple
Their Support is disgraceful, I have been emailing them daily for the past 2 weeks with zero replies.
I had bought 3 games before I flashed my phone, then lost them & have been emailing support for fresh download links but they are ignoring me. For anyone else with same problem, I figured out a workaround - the initial small file that you download got saved to my SD card under the download folder of my Dolphin browser. I just installed from there & it let me download the 200Mb portion & all is working again.
I bough 9 Games while there £1 haha, i cant get modern combat 2 to work though, it launches the first time to download the data but then force closes, i mite try deleting it and installing again
Lol, I bought splinter cell yesterday.... wondered why it was only £1

Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus

I think this game is by far the best FPS for the xperia plays gamepad. I hated the controls in this game at first but grew to love it.
I set the contols to: move, Shoot, aim and use the directional pad to move and gentle taps of the rights stick to aim and it works flawlessly and very accurate.

I'm gonna go ahead and dissagre with you. I can't play that for **** whit its controls haha I think BF 2 is far more better Better controls, better graphics and so on But that's just what i think. And Rainbow six has a killer multiplayer
I dont know i think batttlefield controls are hard because you have to sort of flick or else you'll overshoot every time whereas modern combat 2 you tap on the right pad to aim. Soo much nicer to play with and alot more accurate. What setup do you use in battlefield and i'll give it a shot

when buying from gameloft, are the installers individually signed to your device, email, phone number, or whatever to prevent piracy? you see, i lost my installer for Modern Combat 2 Black Pegasus, accidentally deleted it when cleaning my SD card so I'm asking gameloft to give me another copy and I've been asking them for ages and still no freakin solution. they just replied once asking for my details and the receipt and that was 3 weeks ago!!!
so if it's not signed and all copies are the same (among the same phone models), maybe you can share to me your APKs for the Xperia Play via PM.. I swear I bought the game! Gameloft just has a crappy customer support. :[
Gameloft games are tied to your account. You just go to the site on your phone and enter your email and phone #. It gives you a section called My Downloads.
Asking for paid games is against the rules here. Even in PM's
Well i didn't know it was to tied to the account... and the My Downloads page thing using their website isn't working (saying I haven't downloaded any when in fact I have downloaded loads of games from them) that's why I posted in their crappy forum in the first place. I'm not dumb to not know that. In fact, everything in their website that is tied to an account doesn't work.
And I'm well informed of that no-warez rule here that's why I was asking FIRST in my previous post if it is tied to the account because if it's not there's no license thing to it. Since you said it is tied to accounts, then now I know.
I called thier 1-800#(or whatever) and they sent me texts with a direct link. They will answer the phone.
Try that.

each device has a unique ID, and so does each gameloft .apk, at first run, each .apk is paired with the unique id of the device running it, after that, the game will only work on the device it was first run on

If I may ask a followup to this, do you know if say a while from now the Xplay 2 comes out and we want to upgrade, will Gameloft allow you to re-download an app you paid for to a new device? Or once its bought and paired you're done. I realize the physical file is paired, but I wonder if it broadcasts this data back to their server as well.

Yeah thats what it does, thats why you need an internet connection the first time you run a game, the game check the apk's id against the paired ones in the database, and if it comes back as already paired, the game quits or gives you the piracy warning
If I was to say get a new phone I would call and have them issue the games again.
But I believe it is tied to your account. I have flashed my phone and when I went back I had to enter my phone number and email address to download them again.
Hell the controls on the updated version (1.0.0) sucks ****..
controls on v1.0.0 for Xperia Play is so ****ed up, any solution?
I dont want it,hard to target,iprefer rainbow six
This game was out of my phone for months now, until yesterday I saw the game's changed icon on the Get Games app so I decided to try the game again hoping the controls were better. And hell yes, they're a lot better. The game is playable now, except from one bug I noticed that kept me from advancing through the very first mission.
Everytime the cinematic shows up where a burning barrel flies toward the player in slow-mo, the action button appears but doesn't seem to be functional. When I touch it, it disappears and my player just stands there and lets the flying barrel blast him into space dust.
Anyone care to try and report back if they experience the same? This is still a good FPS imo especially now that MC3's aim controls are kinda screwed up too with the new update.
If you're on v3.3.9 or earlier, I can agree that MC2 controls are okay.
If you're on any version newer than that (when they reset the version count to 1.0.0) then you're crazy

Its been a while but IIRC one of the game pads buttons functions for the action button, it may have been X or Square or the right trigger, I forget. I remember having a problem with that part when i first played the game.
Hey bros I have a problem, I played mc2 via online and I am level 72 user but when I finish some game ir says that I am 58 level, and when I start a game it says I am 63 level, can somebody tell me what is wrong with my game.

Gameloft is whats wrong with it. Their server that tracks your games doesn't realize 3/4 of the "badges" i earn, and screws that stuff up too.

[Q] going to buy one today, got some questions

I am going to get one of these bad boys from ATT this morning. I was curious if this is the model that I can pay to get the bootloader unlocked, or if this is unknown right now?
I like the idea of a pure vanilla GB, and the idea of throwing CM7 onto this device!
I am sick of waiting around for the gs2, and frankly, I am interested in the emu scene for the Play.
Has anyone got MAME up and running smoothly? I have the full romset of MAME titles from 2005.
TL;DR If I go get the Play from ATT this morning, can I unlock the bootloader and root it straightaway?
The BL unlock has worked in all XPlay models to date, so you can trust it will work for you too.
There are a couple of Mame emulators for your. Pick the one you find best and be happy.

All emus work excellently on the play. Snes/Gameboy/Megadrive/Genesis/Amiga etc etc etc
The up to date emus are thus -
N64oid - bought off slideme (not on market). Works pretty good.
FPSE - bought off market place. Works awseomely.
Native PS1 emu - Use the convertor in the other threads to convert games. Then run games in software mode by editing the preferences.xml file, works excellenty. Even sets up your pocket playstation with pretty icons.
Mame -
Jrioni Arcade - Bought off market. Works excellently. No save states.
Mame4Droid - Free off market. Works excellently. No save states.
Tiger Arcade - Free from his website. Works excellently, although analog controls do not work, so you cant play driving games etc. Save states for paid version, but these currently do not work.
All in all, if you want a portable emulator, this is the best thing on the market at the moment.

The back cover especially seems a bit cheap cause it's flimsy, but in reality the flexibility makes it less likely to crack. The build quality of the gamepad is definitely not cheap though.
Just remember that demo handsets are always abused and the one you buy will feel better.

PS:Store Games.

Reacently I Downloaded The Pstore Off of XDA,
After installing this I open It (i live in the UK) put my country language etc.
then it randomly says its not avalible in your country wth.
After Fiddling with it, it decided to let me in, seing a broad range of games to buy sign in and download a free game (was a offer) signed in and went to downloads section, me having a PS3 I thought I could download my Pre-Purchased Games.
I was wrong, Sony have ripped us off they wont let you download a game thats on your PS3 and wont give you a converted version wtf. incase you were wondering It was Spyro.
If You think of buying a game on your sony device from Ps store On a console and want it more on a Xperia play/tablet s/p Buy it from there not the console market becasue of the conversion at the whole market layout.

It says playstation store not playstation network, all the information is in the EULA you agreed to. The EULA states that any game purchased from the PS store can be used on up to two mobile devices.

Are you referring to PS3 PS store or Xperia Play PS store?
No im not on my Play Now but There Is Spyro etc........ I went and signed in and says there is spyro for prurchase if this gave you some info click the like button.
I see people posting about a free game in the store, but I can`t find a free game (UK account), only 11 purchase options at £3.99 each, and apart from driver they are not really big titles.
games on the PS3 PlayStation store are different from the games that show up on the Android PlayStation store

OnLive and Mad Catz Bring AAA Games to Big Screens With the M.O.J.O. Micro-Console

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/onlive-mad-catz-bring-aaa-190745470.html
Watch the video at the bottom! looks awesome!
Onlive is a PC game streaming business.
It currently supports PC, Android and TV (via android tv box).
Impressive controller with PC/Mac/Android support:
http://play.onlive.com/controller_specs
It includes a usb Wireless Adapter, I'm guess it's for PC folk with no BT.
Not sure if it's made by Madcatz, like the fireTV's controller, the body/battery area looks familiar though.
If I have time, I'll try out a demo this weekend.
Anyone whose not tried onlive get right on it you wont be dissapointed providing your internet connection dont suck, ive had my subscriptions since early 2011 and its freeking aswome, lets see andry birds, wordfeud or boarderlands hmmm no contest. This is how mobile gaming was ment to be.

As of yet I've only loaded the app and watched a few others playing in the arena, didn't have any problems so assumed it would play as well, can check later on. I ain't had a proper chance to use the mojo for prolonged periods of time cause of my work hours and world cup . Spent most of my time trying to get the high res config files on doom 3 to work and sorting out my ROMs files. Doom 3 worked fine in normal with no shaders running between 55/60 fps but when I change the config file to include tye android hi res settings its exits the game, dunnno why. But will get it working if its the last thing I do.

It might be that the new ui is the problem they changed it about 3 months ago and the old one was much better. The new one has a tendency to be laggy on movements/navigating. Also try pressing x on the initial starting of the app that gets the controller hooked up. If its the same as OLs micro console the analog sticks are a bit naff for navigating the menues try only using the dpad.
