Gameloft is avertising "HD" Gaming for the EVO, with an offer to get 'Let's Golf HD' for free. I have been trying for days and have yet to see the page do anything other than look pretty.
Any one have any luck actually getting anything ?

That's weird that you didn't get anything. It sent me the text to download within 2 minutes, and now I'm downloading the game itself.
Just tried. I was able to get the free game.

this has been going on for weeks, i hope the change the free game to N.O.V.A
This is awesome, I did not know they were giving away free games. I just wish it didn't take so long to download data once you start the game. It's been downloading for like 10 minutes :/
got mine with in 340 sec of entering my number
got my copy.
also bought asphalt after "testing it" for a while.
does anyone know if we get free upgrades/updates??
if so, how? or do their apps auto update themselves?
Ugh why can't they make it a cool game.. golf is boring in real life and video games.
I browsed to that site on my phone last week, downloaded and installed the bookmark app, then downloaded and installed Lets Golf! right after. Then uninstalled the bookmark app .
I just got the text to get my free copy, but I get this message when I open the link:
"Sorry, but there are no games available for your mobile. If you are using a web browser, please try to connect with your WAP browser."
Can someone just upload the .apk since it is free?

It said that for me at first, but that was because I was using dolphin browser hd and my user agent was on Iphone. Make sure your user agent in settings is Android.
Ah, changing my user agent fixed the problem. This is such a massive rip-off of Hot Shots Golf, by the way.

Huh...I got my about a week ago from another post here. I just went to the page with my phone and downloaded some installer...then the golf game. Deleted the installer right after.
The game isn't all that bad...it's not great, but I have never attempted to play a game on phone before.
The graphics are mostly ok, the fly overs are actually pretty good. The issue is when you notice the trees with blue outlines. I mean SERIOUSLY!! Who let that person have a graphics job. They just used same trees over and when background is a mountain or other trees...then they all have blue edge where they artist just selected the tree and cut it. BLECH.
The controls are a bit touchy...well way too touchy actually. When you attempt to change the target where the ball will land...the grid shifts around all crazy. Very hard just to shave a dozen feet off the distance but still be aimed at the hole.
The hit controls are weird. The easy version seems to slide up and down at random speeds...the advanced version...well I have yet to figure it out...what is a shank and what is a good hit? No idea.
Anyway...overall it has wasted a good few hours total...but super glad I didn't pay for it.
When will Dungeon Hunter be free!!!!!
Sms?.....just install the bookmark app then it instantly let me do the game app. No waiting for a sms....after starting the game 1st time had to do the 157mb file which took about 45 seconds over my WiFi connection and played the game....super easy(not the game)...now I just gotta wait for group or root it so I can save to SD card.......
I actually bought it some time ago, but the one on the website said "HD" in big letters, so I was wondering if there was a difference, like higher resolutions. I emailed them and they said no, it's same bloody game. So the marketing dept. is lying as per usual.
DOes anyone have any idea how to play via WIFI? I have tried everything and nothing works.
Can anyone confirm lets golf is working for 1v1 via WIFI?
This is a tip i just found for modern combat 2 on the xperia play.., this is using a genuine copy of modern combat 2 on a stock xperia play ...
I bought the game this morning went to play it and all i got was FORCE CLOSE (process com.gameloft.android.GAND.GloftBPHP.ML) GRRRRRRR! So after trawling through google for 30mins i found some dude who had a way to get it working...
1..open the game with pad slid in (in the apps menu) it might work with the pad slid out too
2.. then youll get force close blah blah blah...click close or ok or whatever
3.. now hold on your home key so recent apps appear on screen
4.. now click modern combat 2 in recent apps and it works!!!
hope this helps somebody cos i was pissed off when mine didnt work, thanks goto some dude on a random forum i tripped up on.
if this is old news delete this thread BUT if its useful to ya, gimme a HELL YEAH!!!
Hell yeah ? !
hell yeah? its a pretty inexcusable workaround to a problem that shouldn't exist. after paying for something that was supposed to be tailor made to my device i expect it to work properly without having to resort to some bogus workaround.
plan to be more careful when purchasing gameloft games in the future because the response they gave me was more of the same, and that is just weak IMHO.
All mine work just fine
yeah i agree it should work without the need of this, but itll do for me till they have a proper fix, maybe theyll patch the game. it might be my end because i installed some bogus versions of the game first that i later uninstalled but maybe they might have upset it abit lol...
anyway man just done 30mins multiplayer on capture the flag with about 8-10 in the server and was surprised how good it was, oh i had to register via my laptop with gameloft live cos trying to register in the game caused FORCE CLOSE again, but once registered u can log in and it all works good
see u on the battlefield soldiers ill stab u all in the boob
I had this problem, i kicked up a fuss and gameloft gave me an extra game for free!

I had the same problem and this does works (HI5!) however I agree that its not acceptable on the part of Gameloft. This game was advertised on this device and it was in the Xperia Play app, clearly its just a minor bug that could have caused havoc, and I have also told Gameloft what I think (hopefully a free game!).
Hopefully I will see you guys playing online.

But good idea for posting it here it will get seen more and be more helpful to people having this problem.
I noticed it force closes when the os does something like say you press the home button it will force close and you will have to start again from your last save which is annoying. This problem must be down to a conflict with the SE software as problems still exist with phone rooted and debranded.
Auauaua, great!!!!
Working on motorola Xoom now!
This is great. I had no idea.
works for me. Pressed the thanks button. Gameloft said that they will give me a free game as they don't know how to fix it.
Worked for me too!

Same problem on SGS2!
I was having the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and (much to my surprise!) this work around actually WORKS!
Just debating whether to accept the free game they've offered me and carry on playing! Its really bad that Gameloft are allowing this to happen, so I wont feel too bad.
What's the debate? Just pick the free game and play the two. The cost for Gameloft to send you a link to another game is 0: plus, the glitch is their fault in the first place, and they seem lazy to correct it. If they're too lazy to give you proper service, why should you get restless about exploiting their policies?
Hahah i discovered this by myself thinking that I had solved a worldwide issue I searched for forums to announce my discovery and tell everyone to get a free game as well
Unfortunately you beat me to it but I still suggest everyone get a free game for their **** up on not being able to code properly for fking android.

Cheers mate, thanks for the heads up :-D

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

hi everyone.has anyone had any problems with support from gameloft.cos i have.and i have sent them many emails and no reply.its a simple request i just want to re download a game i allready paid for.i downloaded about 8 games and when i go to my account on gameloft it shows that i havnt downloaded any games at all.i have emailed them and emailed them and still no reply.i guess when you buy a game from gameloft and your phone crashes you have to pay for it again.to me that sounds like a skam.
I bought a couple games from them over the weekend. They responded within 24 hours of me emailing them with an issue (granted, not the same issue as yours). Also, I waited to speak with a live person and they were actually pretty helpful. This could just be a fluke, but I'm happy!
oddbert:
First: you might have checked your account via your wifi connection and not your wap connection or vice/versa your download history might be still there
Second: please make a topic more clear it might help more people in the future.
Third: Gameloft did a system support that actually is great but it might need some time to get a reply. Ask via the support on their site next time.
they are having a $2.99 sale. I'm getting all of them LOL
Edit: That is f'ed up. as soon as i logged in the prices are now $5
I absolutely HATE the gameloft purchasing system. It's terrible. If they want to sell their own games, they should make their own appstore for them and make it easier on all of us. Their wap based purchasing system is terrible. Even their account management system is very bad. I've had nothing but bad experiences with it.

Used PayPal as well here and never get a reply from them when contacting support due to game issues. 3 weeks and no reply. Gameloft SUCK!
It sucks that I bought Sacred Odyssey and can't play it. Still no fix for 2.3.3.
A lot of their games are rather superficial in content as well.
They look great when still, but their animations are suspect. As is their storytelling. Bugs are always prevelant in Gameloft games. Gameplay isn't always intuitive or even fun. Their DRM is a kick in the teeth as well...though it is improving. Any company that makes it harder for legitimate users is at fault in my eyes.
The only game that I think is really, really up there with the best is Asphalt 6, but that is only because I love Burnout, and it is pretty hard to mess up a racing game.
I suppose for the price of them we can't complain, but it would be nice to see some genuine developers coming to the Play, though I doubt that will ever happen.
If the PSX emulator improves dramatically or the Sony PSX gets opened up like it was on the PSP, then all these worries will dissapear.
In the meantime, will have to put up with the thousands of top quality titles on all the other emulators!

for me it was a 1 800 number which is toll free.
the first time you go to customer care it only gives you an email.
Click your country, select a continent, then select your country name and go to customer care.
Let me know if that works for you.
Edit:
After doing so my country says Canada and not International.
Just get a postal address for UK.

Thanks for that
Did you follow my steps?
You have to do it from the phone.
First launch the Playstation app.
go to more games.
Select a Gameloft game. It brings you to the Gameloft mobile page.
Select "More Games" from that page.
Scroll all the way down to "Your Country: international".
Select it and select "Europe"
Select "United Kingdom" (it brings you back to the list of games from Gameloft"
scroll down and select "Customer Care"
You should be on a page with a few paragraphs.
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.

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.
