Hi,
I'm new to Android and am absolutely loving my San Francisco. I've been playing Angry Brids, Tank Hero and Slice it which I think are all great. Any suggestions on any other good games?

free runner is kinda fun
Deer Hunter 3D, HeavyHunner, Hungry Shark, NFS Shift, Sniper vs Sniper =)
Dunno if they all work in 2.1 but in 2.2 it works great.
Recently ripped from the leaked Chinese Froyo ROM released on MoDaCo, Raging Thunder 2 was getting some happy responses.
The advantage is that it was designed for the Blade so should run well.
Have not tried it myself as I'm not a great fan of games but as a freebie it may be worth a go?

does gameloft hd games work on this phone ?
Yes, Gameloft games work mostly. The Blade has the Adreno GPU, which is exactly the same as the one used in the Snapdragon chipset. The difference is in the inferior CPU only. So graphics intensive games are not really a problem.
hi there, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy 3 as most of you too.
here's the thing, i've rooted my phone, installed 3d chainfire and updated all of my drivers (of chainfire that is) installed setcpu and set it on perfromance base on 1300MHz. after that i thought to myself well a everything is done i can start downloading games now, i first downloaded PES 2011 and felt really excited when it booted and expected some good gaming and fun when traveling but when i started the game it was just horrid...the game is running approximately at 20% of it's usual game speed which kills it off entirely it feels like i'm playing the game with VSync enabled all the time.
So i was hoping if i could get some feedback from you guys to inform me what i did/am doing wrong or to give your impressions on the way things are shaping up for you.
thx in advance.
Hi
Did you tried different configurations specific to the game?
Did you installed plugins?
well, different games needs different configurations and each of them works good with a specific plugin.
Here is some examples:
For Nfs Shift you only need to select "Reduce texture quality and Qualcomm plugin.
For Modern Combat: Sandstorm you have to select both "Reduce texture quality" and "Reduce texture size" and choose Qualcomm plugin.
So the best way to play a lag free game is to try different settings.
Good Luck
trust me i've installed the plugins and have all 3 updated to the newest version i have tested all possible configurations and plugins even reducing texture and size settings still i can't get the game to run at more then 20-30% of it's potential...it's kinda sad as i saw that many of you are playing games smoothly on the SG3
Try using on of g3mod OC bus kernels.

em, could you please provide a link (with possible explanations) as i'm kinda new to this stuff, i got my SG3 a few months back and never had an android before.
this topic Must be very useful to you:
[How to]Play "HD" games on SG3 (NOVA, Shift, Asphalt5, AC, PES11 and more!)
PES 2011 working slow on every G3. You can't do anything with that but games like Nova, Nfs Shift and many others working great. You can try Psx emulator also, Fpse is the best I think and then you can play with psx games like Tekken 3, Gran Turismo, Civilization or Mortal Kombat.

So, overclocked processor even to 1300 Mhz doesn't provide performance in 3D games. (Neocore benchmark @ 667 Mhz - 13 FPS, Neocore benchmark @ 1200 Mhz - 14 FPS). Practically zero growth in performance of 3D.
Fpse emulator? The same situation. gran Turismo (time trial, only Your car on the track - 30-42 FPS - playable) Gran turismo (race, 6 cars - slow, not playable)
I5800 is not for games and emulation.
well, G3 is not good for 3D games, that's just how it is. There are awesome 2d games for android though. Refraction, rope cut, mx mayhem-a bit slow but fun and playable, angry birds all run fine. believe me if you had high end 3d games on g3 they would become boring in a week. better to just stick to your pc or console for real games
I am thinking about buying a 7 inch tab, so i have to decide which one. For me is gaming really important(ill buy a tab to play games everywhere) so i have a few questions:
How many fps do you get when you play a n64 game with mupen64?with texture pack?
Do the new games like horn, dark meadow, dark knight and gangstar rio play lagfree?
How fast is chrooted ubuntu?
Sry for posting a question for a device i dont own, but
Thanks, transformador

I just played around with Mario 64 running off a cheap usb stick using n64oid and it worked very well. There was some stutter, but I'm sure that is due to the crappy usb stick.
How Nova 3 and MC4 works?Still laggy?Or better?
N.O.V.A 3 and MC 4(if I'm not wrong) is a ported game from IOs. And every ported game will lag a bit or more if it still not optimized well. Even on such a powerfull tablet like N7. I recommend you to OC the CPU and GPU. It will reduce the lag.
Cheers
Many already know that this device will be very good to run different emulators with.
Everything from Dolphin to Drastic DS, Reicast, Mupen64 and many more. I'll focus a lot on Dolphin as thats the emulator that will get the best boost compared to the Tegra K1 32-bit.

Look forward to seeing them, since I won't be getting my own N9 at release. I don't really care about seeing anything but PPSSPP and Dolphin though, since the others are already fine on older hardware.
I hope that PPSSPP and Dolphin will work good
I think PPSSPP will run almost all games at full speed. But running dolphin at full speed will be much, much harder to achieve. Hopefully we will see at least 50% gain in fps compared to the shield tablet.
Not really interested in emus since I have a Wii U for that but I expect the N9 to run anything you throw at it

I have PPSSPP running Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together and Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions running fine on a FireTV and Galaxy Tab 2 tablet fine. I'm also playing around with a few Japanese visual novel imports. PPSSPP should not have any issues on the N9.
You need to remember that this tablet is rocking a QXGA (2048x1536) screen so it will be more heavy to play on it

That won't tax it harder on Dolphin per se, since it won't be rendering at that, i wouldn't expect it to run well except on 1xIR (the Dolphin native resolution).
The Nexus 9 certainly won't be able to manage "anything you can throw at it" though, since even the most high spec PC can't do that right now and maintain full speed on certain games in Dolphin. My i7 4790K with water cooking and overclock and GTX 980 SC ACX 2.0 can't, and that's much more powerful than the K1.

That's the question we're all waiting to have answered!
So far the Nvidia Shield Tablet, by far, runs it the best and the expectation is that the K1 Denver should be a good step up from there as it nearly doubles CPU performance, which the emulator is more dependant on. I would expect many games to still run slow, but a good deal more titles should be playable (more easily emualted games like Timesplitters 2, which runs at about 40-45fps on my Shield tablet and might be fully playable on the Nexus 9).

OOOOoooooohhhhh sorry, my bad, I'm used to people on here knowing everything hahaha sorry
Dolphin only uses 2 cores, that means that dolphin is not taking advantage of the full power the shield tablet has. Nexus 9 is running a dual core k1, and the single core performance is up to 100% faster than the quad core k1. This should give us a big speed improvment in dolphin
I'm currently running DraStic on my Samsung Tab S 8.4, and it works PERFECTLY. Soooo smooth, best DS/3DS emulator out there. Looking forward to using it on the Nexus 9, with what the wider screen.
(PS. Got the emulator for Pokemon . you're never too old for that game )

You're right mate. Most of the games I play are older Pokemon games, from when I was a child or hacks based on those games.
Not sure if I find the huge screen preferable for GBC and GBA emulating, but I'm really looking forward to pushing that soc to the max
