Nova Kicks Ass

Well including three demo of Nova in 3.70 sucked me in. I paid the $5 because this game is really cool!

I agree. I was pleasantly surprised by both the performance of the game, and the fact that although it may be called "bloatware", in reality it adds minimal to internal storage (most of the data is stored on SD which I don't mind).

I picked it up a few months ago, its pretty bomb. Modern Combat: Sandstorm is absolutely AWESOME too.

Ok so Adam did you install 3.70? Are you rooted? If so did you get your old official copy of NOVA working? Mine won't it just glitches and hangs?
Any answers would be awesome as I can't play NOVA anymore without REBUYING it BOOOO
Thanks,
Adan

Nova 2 looks even better, dont know if its coming to android. Also don't know if our evos can handle it.

Yeah gamelofts process of selling is horrible. They need to join the android market. Especially with all the talk on the blogs about them ripping people off. I have been using a titanium restore so I've been ok playing NOVA. I think they right now only offer 90 days that you can redownload aka update. Which is retarded. The games are great but gameloft needs to rethink their android business model quick

Well CRAP
Doh well that answers the question Adam,
You don't have to worry about what Sprint did to our EVOs when it comes to NOVA as you arent using even a loose version of the RUU... ahhh well...
As for rethinking their business model I hear you, it's way to hard to get support or help with these issues from them. Not to mention even finding the games is so backwards its almost in opposite land...

Yeah. I wanna say android central (maybe phandroid....cant remember) ran an article today on them charging people numerous times, etc. If they wanna be a serious player why arent they on the market? As easy as it should be, gameloft comes off as shady. And yeah, their stuff is a pain to buy, download, and install. You would think they would wanna cure that issue. Joining the market would do that and alleviate everyones fears of being scammed.

no prob..
well i had the full version of nova before the update, im all stock. and after the update I still have the full version, no changes.

you can actually get modern combat sandstorm for free at getjar.com! it is a fun game and was made free there because of what adam said.

I like just wish they would get over themselves and put the games on the market

oh darn it, sorry for getting your hopes up. the article was misleading and so was the description. my bad

I don't think they charge you if you activate the demo copy after having already bought it. I got NOVA back in late july, and just activated the demo. It said purchase, but didn't go through the normal process, so I don't think I paid for it. I'll try to post back here in a month when I get my next bill to confirm, but I'm pretty sure that if its the device that you already activated on, it should be free to activate it. It definitely plays better now that its integrated.
I love all the Gameloft games except for Asphalt 5. Its not a really good racing game. Its ok, but not well optimized for Android. I just got Need for Speed Shift when it came out on the Market on the 16th. So far, its awesome! Really snappy great graphics, and really good racing experience.

Can you use wiimote with these games?
On cm 6 of course. I know it doesn't work on sense.

Any Games for Tegra?

Hey Guys just wondering are there any games for the Tegra in the market. I saw 3 that are FINE TUNED for the tegra but there direct ports of games I had on the iphone a year ago. And one doesnt even play online like the iphone version...bummer!!
Anything new? Whats the point of a tegra without the applications to take advantage of it? Maybe I jumped the gun and got it to early. I can still return it so thats not a problem.
Thanks

Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing.. Why the heck did I got a Tegra 2 chip on my phone if no one supports it?

the bird flew out faster on angry birds

If you get Dungeon Defenders on a Tegra 2 phone, it automatically upgrades to Deluxe edition which are extra bosses, dungeons, etc. made only for Tegra 2. You can also do a market search for "THD" and that'll bring up tegra/tegra 2 optimized games. The only i see are Samurai II, Backbreaker, and Fruit Ninja. I'm just waiting for tegra zone to come out. Going to be alot better searching for high-end games with no clutter.

I'm holding out for Galaxy on Fire 2. That'll be what I really use to test the Tegra 2.

You were expecting the Market to be flooded with games for a phone and chipset that JUST GOT RELEASED?
Please do go back to iPhone and have fun with what Mr. Jobs tells you that you can do.

is this for tABLET ONLY

iTS FOR tegra 2 only, and for tablets
but since we have a tegra 2...maybe we can tweak it and play

However what really made me mad with PES 2011 was having Mersey Red (Liverpool) have a blue kit!!!!!

Mate, PES2 or even PES...or even PES2: Evolution are considered amongst the greatest football games ever. They are sublime.
Would love to know how you have PES2 working on FPSE though...I have gone through the entire PES catalog on FPSE, and all crash randomly when in a match (except ISS PRO 98). It's a pity because I would just bum the Master League on my PLAY...even more upsetting due to the game running completely and utterly brilliantly otherwise.

Dungeon Defenders is Updated for SGS II

I'm a frequenter on the dungeon defender IRC and one of the Devs pointed out that the update for SGS II support should be on the market. So those gamers who want to play DD should check out the Market.! And let me know if it works so I can tell them. I don't have an SGS II, so I thought I'd relay the info to people who have it.

I'm at the download screen so I'll have to wait to let you know how it runs, but DD:SW still doesn't show in the market and say its incompatible from the Web Market.

Second Wave is an Xperia Play exclusive.. so the rest of us can't play it yet. Hopefully within the next two months we will have it though =D. They're pretty caught up with trying to release the PC/PS3/360 version.

It should be. We were talking about SW, not FW if that's what you wondering.

I first played DD on my Samsung Vibrant when it first came out, so I had one of the better experiences with the game as far as graphics/smoothness is concerned. With that said, the first level looks bigger than what I remember and the graphics look noticeable better as well.
You'll have to wait for me to get later into the game to let your know if it runs better with more (hundreds) of enemies on screen, but the game itself is running smoothly right now.

Cool. But the PS3, PC and Mobile versions will have crossplay. 360 is left by itself due to MS policies.

Well unfortunately, 360 is what's taking the game so long to launch. It's in microsoft's certificaton process and that process takes 6-8 weeks. This week marks the 8th week. So hopefully we'll get some more info then. Btw, you got a username reminiscent of a duo of Trendy's interns known as the "Killer Beez" lol.

Why don't they just release what they can (PC, PS3) and delay the 360 version? You must spend a lot of time in Trendy's IRC to know their interns nickname.

Not exactly.. I understand that they lose valuable marketing from Microsoft if they don't rrelease at the same time. Also, PS3 and 360 HAVE to be released at the same time or microsoft ain't going to release it on the arcade.

[Q] Where to find decent games for the play.

I've had a look in market and the xperia play launcher, the games there are pretty basic and I don't like them that much, they cost too much. i was just wondering if their is a site out there that will allow me to download the best xperia play games for free.

I'm sure there is, but asking about warez here is only going to get you banned and have you ever though that the games might be basic because of people like you? what developer would want to make a game, if people are just going to steal it.

There are no decent games and even if there were good ones the controls will suck balls, the touch pads are a joke and who in their right mind would pay 1-10 bucks for a game that can be beat in an hour? I would just stick with fpse

Mass piracy has not stopped successful games from selling in any platform. The truth is that games are basic because we're not paying premium prices. A price range from 0 to 5 euro a pop won't buy you inventive stories, memorable voice acting and intricate, long gameplay. It will buy you Cut the Rope, Battle Bears or Eternal Legacy.

Too expensive? These games are about £3 at most, with a lot coming under that. The games are good, but the uptake of the play has been a bit slow so devs wont bother optimizing for it! Its down to Sony to get them to port their games across.
IMO the best games you can get are the ones that are pre installed on the play and Dungeon Defenders, other than that FPSE and the ~oid range are your best bets

I agree. The majority of people who pirate would likely not buy the movies/games/software anyway. I'm sure some would but most wouldn't. And the games’ being basic is because the devs are developing for the lowest common denominator which is the crapy touch screens. If we do get good Play Only games they will likely come from anyone with a steak in the Xperia Play.

QFT.
The touchpad/analog controls in some of the games are implimented in different ways. Some are true analog, and others are swipe. Some people like it one way, others like it another. I honestly wish they would allow an option to switch. However, there are plenty of decent games available for this phone, that although they may cost about US$5, that isn't terribly much. A coffee, or a game. even if the game is short, you would probably reach the same amount of enjoyment time from it.
If all else fails, there are some decent to good emulators out there and you can play all the old games you have from back in the day. NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System, NeoGeo, PSX/PS1, N64, etc. I think there is even some MAME goodness floating around for arcade carts/ROMs.
If you can't find a good game that works decently with the controller in that whole huge mess, then I suggest that maybe your criteria is set too high, and you would have problems finding suitable items on any platform at that high of quality requirement at that low of a price.

I'm sorry if I "attaked you" in any way. But you're very negative 90% of the time. And I'm not the only one who thinks that. You don't have to say that the phone is crap, useless, the controls sucks and so on, because they don't. It's enough to say "I don't like it, it doesn't fits my needs". Just saying.

"You don't have to say that the phone is crap, useless, the controls sucks and so on, because they don't. "
Show me where I ever said that? Quit making **** up. I love the phone. The controls are great if the game is developed properly for them. I have stated many times that the battle bears game has them done right. I have said Gameloft games need better controls. Since I have 6 of them I have a right to state my opinion on them. Most of my posts are questions or helping others.
BTW "You're just a cranky little kid who can't figure out how to play with your controls" Is an attack.

They aren't free but they are cheaper direct from gameloft than through the V-Cast store. Just pick your game, pick R800x and scan the barcode
