Pretty sure everyone knows this but some decent games available for free on Samsung apps.
Tetris and samurai 2 caught my eye.
GALAXY NOTE
What country is your market in? I'm in the US and have the market changer (to fake the phone into thinking I'm somewhere else) but cannot locate all of the free apps.
I'm particularly interested in S-Pen apps...
Thanks.
im in the usa
I did not see Asphalt 6 listed in my Note.

None of these are available in the USA. What country did you spoof your market so that you could download them free?

Nevermind. They are in the USA. My bad.
Got these as free on Swedish Note.

2. Trial Xtreme
3. Samurai 2

You have to check the Samsung app that camera with the phone: has white searchlight falling on a few colored circular disks...
Read about the free apps for some Samsung phones here:
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sams...om-its-store-to-selected-GALAXY-users_id24933
Oh btw, when you launch the app, it will ask if you want Samsung Update. It's an app that pushes updated apps from the Samsung appstore to your phone. I've read that it keeps the phone awake or runs in the background, so you should ignore that, or you can uninstall it from settings>applications.
Using the Polish Note here in the USA, no problem
In Russia we have
Riptide GP HD
Samurai 2
Paladog
Air Attack HD
Asphalt 6
Medieval castle defense
and some more for free
use the samsung apps program, i am in the usa and have the games downloaded already
nothing in Egypt :S
Working fine here in Oman.
All the above game are also listed in France.
I add Castle Of Shadows that's Free too !
I have downloaded some of those games and I think I enjoy Riptide the most. It looks gorgeous on the Note and I have to say one of the pleasures of using the Note in the last few weeks has been discovering how amazing it is as a gaming device. I have been quite skeptical about phone gaming till now but the Note has changed my mind. 5 inches is a great size for mobile gaming and I don't think it's a coincidence that the Vita has the same screen size.

Thanks

OMG Those are some of the best looking games I've seen for mobile!!
Those games don't look far behind the PSP.
I'll be trying out HAWX tonight
And I'll give Let's Golf a try too, I'll let you know if it works for me.

This is by far the BEST online multilayer game for the android. (or so it looks)
I'm a FPS guy. And this looks very smooth for a phone. (heck! for a psp too)

Like I said above I'll be trying at least one or two of them tonight but the more I look at their site the more doubt I have these games will run well on the hero, they seem to be pretty... graphically intensive. And they are presented as running on a motodroid
We'll see. I will definitely be reading their refund policy first
I have all the gameloft games on my pre and I can say that they look good, but they are really hard to play on touchscreen controls. I do agree that they are pretty much psp quality. Especially let's golf and asphalt 5.
People have complained that it is choppy on the Nexus One. I wonder how they will be on the Evo.
I don't see these games on the market.. Where can I get them?
Thanks

I know but you don't get updates that way..
There is no way to buy it where you get updates too??
I was curious so I checked their site:
"Gameloft products can be selected as downloadable software from our online store. We accept absolutely no returns on game downloads. Should you be unable to download the game, select a game that is incompatible with your phone, lack sufficient credit to download it, or have a problem with your internet service, you will not be refunded. If you complete payment more than once, you will not be refunded. We reserve the right to replace your purchase with another game in exchange. If for any reason you do not receive the game or find yourself unable to install it because of a technical problem, we will gladly resend it and work with you to resolve the problem. However, once the game is successfully installed, we cannot resend it for any reason, unless you buy it again. One purchase entitles you to one download of the game to one phone number and on one phone model only. If you delete or otherwise remove the game from your phone, you will have to buy it again."
I will keep an eye on this thread to see if we get any confirmations. the games look great!

I have a Sprint Hero with DC 2.08.1
I do see some on the Market Place!!!
do a search on
gameloft
assassin's creed
asphalt
Prince of Persia
also.. i found on there another interesting game:
Crusade of destiny
I am like you guys.. I would prefer to try games in the Market so I can get updates and the 24hr return policy.
I wouldn't buy if I couldn't get a refund if it doesn't work on my phone. 7 bucks is a lot of money to gamble with for a game that I wouldn't use that often.
Anyone buy any of gamelofts games from there site to sere if they work on our heros okay yet?
No

Hmm Well I decided to DL it from a warez site just now to make sure it worked before I bought it and it only shows 1/4 of the screen.
BUT
That could be because I didn't get it from there site idk.
I don't want to be out of 7 bucks so i will just stick to thinking it will only show 1/4 of the screen.

Just tried prince of persia and it works really smooth
I nova and hawx and they don't work well hawx said some nonsense about this copy is not an original actual quote from prince of persia " This creature doesn't seem like it wants a cup of sugar" no when they come at you with swords they usually don't
so i have an apk for nova and i installed it on my evo, when i try to run it it says it needs to download some files and then after it does that and i click to start it exits and the phone goes to the home screen, any idea whats going on. i tried to download nova from gamelofts website but it just says motorola droid and verizon as the carrier, thanks!
havent tried nova yet.. but i'll check it out
homerun battle, heavy gunner, xezusus arcade, asphalt 5

Asphalt 5 lags like hell on phone too!! Maybe it was cuz I was using a warez version just cuz I wanted to check it out but I'm not sure. Does anyone know how to download games from gameloft? Cuz like the op says for carrier it only has Verizon. I was wondering if I should just put Verizon and then Droid with MY phone number and see if I get the text with the link. Has anyone from Sprint bought any Apps from gameloft?
they just updated asphalt it runs smooth on mine
bobdude, how did u download it? Did u get it from the gameloft site? If so how when it only says Verizon? Thx
Yeah just so ya'll know it's not just the phone that matters. it's the game itself and how it's developed. GameLoft is notorious for making poorly optimized games. Asphalt is one. The newest release though is much smoother so check that one out. And if anyone downloads warez don't post about it on these forums. We don't deal with warez. But just to answer the OPs question, yes, it's cause it's a warez version. Gangstar and Modern Sandstorm Combat had the same issues. If you like the game, buy it. They're only five bucks.
Hello there!
I just sold my SGS1 and bought an SGS2. but well, something is giving me... headaches...
Well, first thing I thought: This phone is so new that applications don't support it yet! (*EDIT* The first thing was right. It's all application support issues..)
My guess is... I need to upgrade my ROM. (*EDIT* Wrong. We need to wait, or get a plugin for Chainfire3D.)
*******************************
*EDIT* I wrote a lot of Crap that i've now deleted. The true answer is below *EDIT*
The truth is that most HD games available right now weren't designed for the MALI-400 GPU chipset of Galaxy S 2, but instead for NVIDIA's Tegra devices.
These devices use a hardware-accelerated texture-compression algorithm (S3TC\DXTn, n € 1,2,3,5) that IS NOT SUPPORTED IN MALI-400
So the most simple solution is hoping that SGS2 hits BIG on the sales market, so that Devs start to make HD Games for SGS2. IMHO, it will happen soon.
Another solution is to use Chainfire 3D tool and Plugin API to make a conversion plugin.
The plugins are illegal to distribute, but a simple Googling will give some results
Right now, I was unable to produce my own plugin (too much coding involved) and the plugins we've found online crash on most games.
So current step is: Code better plugins, OR, Wait for a better Chainfire3D version (driver)
Links:
Chainfire 3D tool and API
Chainfire 3D Plugins compiling tips
NVIDIA DOC on how to implement the Texture Compression conversion
Now, to anyone who has built the nvidia plugin:
- first step: Send it to me. LOL
- second step: Test it with Dungeon Defenders or Lets Golf 2 HD. This IS important.
to Chainfire:
First of all THANK YOU SIR.
Second, could you please tell us if you can make Dungeon Defenders work? Its a good test.
*******************************
Thank you all and XDA.
Cheers,
Phk
Updates doesn't help until the games developers realease the working version on SGS II.
The games u see on youtube may be downloaded from games hub...
Somes games on SGS 1 still work on SGS II, u may try the games listed in app and theme section.
Not sure about most of these but I know that Dungeon Defenders doesn't work because it's for Tegra processors only.

- SpeedX is from SGS 1. It DOESNT work.
- Reckless Racing is not on Gameshub.....
There must be some system corruption! SpeedX looks EXACTLY like running it on HTC Magic. Believe me, no textures.
Reckless Racing from the Market works fine on my SGS2. Is this RR Lite, or the full version, and did you install it through the Market?

Now about my lill S2:
- Reckless from Market works OK
- SpeedX from Market works OK
- My phone IS OK, the problem was, afterall, Application Compatibility. Not the ROM.
Now about the REALLY important stuff.
CHAINFIRE 3D
What the hell, i was totally unaware! I'm going to Update Rom, Root, And try it.
But as EleCtrOx666 said, where are the plugins needed?
Are you saying that, for example, Dungeon Defenders is PLAYABLE with Chainfire 3d?!?!
that is just too outstanding to be true. awesome.

Lol, whats happened my phone is doing the same thing a hour ago i had 3 apps now down to 1 its probaly scrolling through apps.
I guess its time that app can go away. I never really used it for anything other than just seeing what games were available, but i already have like 3 apps that do that!.... lol
How did you guys install it in the first place? I got to it on the Android Market in my PC browser from the Xperia PLAY page on Qualcomm's Snapdragon showcase site but it only lets me send it to my HP TouchPad! R800at is grayed out in the list.
Just a quick post guys for the other karting fans out there.
Had my eye on this game for some time but its been for tegra 3 up until now.

Id try side loading it.. It may just be that its not "officially" compatible buy works fine.
There's always a good argument for backing up you packages, using titanium or similar, just for situations like these.
