FYI: Here is an email I sent to gameloft and the reply. Hope this helps some people, sure made me happy!
Hello Aaron,
Games will be available for your Evo shortly through and Gameloft.com, the Sprint Zone icon that appears on the home screen of your device.
We hope to have them live in the next two weeks.
Thank you for your continued support

Hello,
I recently bought a Sprint HTC Evo and I want to buy some gameloft games for it because I LOVE gameloft games I have a bunch on my Palm Pre. Anyways, when I go to the website the only option is for Verizon droid, Do I just select that even though Im on Sprint? If not how do I buy and download some gameloft games?
Sounds pretty good

just a random q... How good is the gpu on the evo? Will we just get the standard gameloft ports or actual games made specifically for it like the iphone?

the iPhone is a different beast...limited hardware specs to design for allows games to be designed for just it. Android is such a diverse market, I would doubt games would be designed "just for the evo". The Evo's market share isn't THAT big.
However, a number of newer android devices *are* getting good graphics chips in them (including the evo) and there are already games out there that have stated they will not work well on older hardware (Pre-N1 basically).
Thanks for the info...;
Just wondering since I had not heard to much discussion about it.. Personally I think those gameloft games are usually junk.. lets see though

Some of them are really good, Westside (It's like Grand Theft Auto) And Hero of Sparta are pretty awesome, Gameloft actually has some of the best games out there for phones. I just don't understand why they wont put them on the marketplace instead of only selling them through thier website they would sell tons more if more people knew about them and they could easily get them from the marketplace.
I've been playing dungeon hunter all day... Works great.

gameloft games r not gonna b as good as the iphone's gameloft games for the evo.iphone has its own seperate GPU for 3d games thats y gameloft games on iphone r pretty heavy IPA files from 50mb to 200 mega bytes and very quality 3d graphics, i just WISH that HTC one day puts its own GPU as well, for the heavy 3d games.
hey i just hit gameloft.com from my evo and there are a bunch of games now available for purchase, 5 bucks each. it's not all of the android games though, missing dungeon hunter for example. but looks like u can get nova and gangstar

While companies like Samsung, Apple, HTC and LG are making lots of money, SE, with the ultimate XPlay still loses money and can't make it on top.
Why? This phone should've been selled like hot bread, it should've been as popular as the PSP or iPhone, it had and has so much advertisements, it's now on Minecraft site's front page, page visited by thousands of people.
With this sad news, they could leave the mobile industry in a few years...
I really don't understand.
As long as the community is alive, it's not took bad... (for us)
It sux that SONU ERIcson can't make money.. Not sure what they can do..

From the Article:
"This means that everything should be fine in Q3 and Sony Ericsson should be back in the black when the next report comes out."
As it also says, the earthquake had a huge impact on them, and this is after 5 consecutive quarters of profit. Wouldn't worry too much.
Earthquake in Q1 delaying the delivery of phones to all regions till start of Q3... No big surprise there.
However they should be fine soon.

I think they should have pushed the play more in the united states. I only saw 2 commercials and that was after the phone was already out in the market for a couple of months.
Sent from my R800x using Tapatalk
Yeah, maybe in Q3 they would have more profit, but just enough to cover that -50 mil.
The advertising campaigns in south america have been a real success. Most tweets in Spanish about the play are comments about them...
Also releasing it at the same time that they announced the Vita may be part of it. I know people who didn’t get one because the Vita is coming and this thing only plays PSX (And not many if you done use and emulator) and phone games. I was hoping for games designed with the play in mind and not just phone updated for the plays controls. This doesn’t work if not done right. A lot (not all) of people don’t like how they made the controls for all the good Gameloft and EA games.
It is not what I expected for sure. (But I still love it)

I have seen many in Canada. I watch a lot of Game related channels like G4TV.
I also agree with the other guys that say it will turn around soon.
Lack of mainstream games is the reason SEXPlay isnt doing as well as it should be.
I only bought the phone for emulation so I am happy whatever games do or do not get released for it.
However, I've read that 75% of Xperia Play owners have bought compatible paid games. That means that a niche is there.
Cant argue with that. I myself have bought most Gameloft games. Currently bought and loving Reckless Racing too
New Jrioni update has made Mame totally awesome aswell.

I bought the gameloft's all or almost all but mostly because they wete on offers like a pound each and some at three pounds but buy one get one free.

I have bought HEAPS of games and i don't usually do that for a phone.
I am pretty sure SE was losing this amount every year without having any of these droid phones but sales have picked up remarkably since they bought into android.
Sony has always threatened closing down their mobile arm but these figures aren't really anything alarming seeing that some regions are just getting the phone now and with the price drop more units are flying off the shelf.
I got all my gameloft games for free from underground community here, b'coz in our poor country, gameloft games are priced too high.. One gameloft game egual to a cost of my lunch + dinner here, sometimes even equal to breakfast + lunch + dinner

I have purchased a few.
I have also spent $Hundreds in iOS Games. The only thing keeping me from spending more on the Play is lack of memory. I don’t want to spend $70+ on a bigger SD card. The 16GB one cost me over $30.

You can buy a $500+ phone but can’t spend $5-$10 for a game?

poor country lol. That is no excuse.
In NZ and AU we pay 6 - 8 dollars per game and I also can get a cheap breakfast/lunch for that price.
Also rather annoying because the AUD is as strong as the USD yet we pay more.
Either way that is no excuse for pirating... You are essentially saying "I should get things free because I can't afford it" and you may as well walk into a Games store, take a game off the shelf and put it in your pocket and walk out, if you have that logic.

It seems to be a nice roster, filled with good old RPG's to the brim (Arc the Lad, Alundra, Popolocrois, Wild Arms...) Just what we were asking for.
I wonder if they're still going to use the native 1.0.1 emulator. Or an improved one.

This is huge
We bought this device because it was a great android smatphone that provided us with the best gaming experience due to it's physical buttons, and now look what we've got!!
I mean this totally changes everything. People always dreamed of a real psp phone! And it's finally happening
Actually it isn't, I got mislead by Popolocrois. It's orignally a PSX game, but since it only got released outside of Japan in its PSP version, I thought it was a PSP title.
Sounds like a step in the right direction
This news is great, funny though, I couldn't tell if your wan was saying PS 3 SDK or PS Suite SDK, lololol!
I think they will release PSP Ports to us in the future.
Hmmm, definitely a step in the right direction, although a few of those games are already available on the Android store, and I haven't even heard of a handful of them (I'd have trouble even pronouncing the titles ), and some are obviously original titles. The linked article also suggests that these titles are for the Japanese market so the list may change when it's released everywhere else...we could get different games or we might just get a truncated list.
But I mean Magical Dice Kids? Really?
I think in the next round of updates it's time they brought some more well-known PSX titles to the market...stuff like ridge racer or gran turismo, some final fantasy titles, twisted metal, tekken, metal gear, god of war...they need to bring out some more Playstation recognisable titles for these Playstation certified devices. I'm not convinced people are buying these devices to play games like I.Q Intelligent Qube. They sound like games you'd buy for a DS, not a PS device.
This is a good start but the next step in what titles are released will be crucial. New games also need to be coming in regularly.

Dude you have some strong points here, however, what's making me really positive about this whole thing is that the xperia play and the PS Vita will have access to the same store! Which means the future of the play is bright because we know as a fact that Sony will keep pushing great games for the Vita and since that's the case this means that both Sony and Sony Ericsson will keep optimising this device. While SE will keep updating the regular android software, hopefully till icecream. Sony on the other hand will keep working on bringing new games to the market + the fact that a lot of android games are being optimised for the play lately.
This device has huge potential and a brighter future. I seriously consider it one of the best android devices you could get today, it's a great package of both multimedia and gaming.
I don't regret for one second choosing the play over all these dual core phones which will be missing all the fun we play owners will have just to brag about a processor that's still not using it's full potentiol due to the lack of software support.
Cheers

Thing is due to hardware differences between the Play and the Vita we'll no doubt see games come out for the Vita that don't make it to the Play. That's what I'm a bit worried about. My point still stands that they need to get their arses into gear and release more recognisable Playstation games, and on a regular basis, for this service to have any hope of being remotely successful.
Still, a good point.

Only time will tell how great the PS store for the xperia play store will really be! What makes me optimistic though is that since Sony included the play with their collection ( tablets + Vita) this for me is a very good sign that they will take care of it.
Fingers crossed
So I finished watching the PS4 press conference,and its all great,but I saw the Xperia Z mentioned trought and they said something about streaming ps1,2,3 games across the vita,tablets and phones. Now,I remember when I got my Xperia Play,Playstation certified was this big thing they overhyped where you were supposed to get playstation games and now its just a half-baked store nobody uses. Now,the technology exists,I've played pc games over OnLive with no lag on my 2 year old phone. I persionally think sony is gonna push playstation games to be streamed and downloaded on certified devices(legit store with lots of games),but they make a lot of promises they cant fulfil.
Anyways let me know what you think...I need a break from these trolls and 10 posts a day about HTC
Sv: Opinion on the playstation certified ecosystem
Never used the option on my 1 year old Xperia S. Saw a few games in a app hopeless in age but the price was in the very high end so no reason to start that adventure.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
it will be more meaningful once the trophies and leader board system is in place.
Never really used it since FPSE is doing wonders... It's nice to have it, but I have to try it out more - hopefully they'll integrate it with PS3's Playstation Network, add trophies and more games. Maybe PSP games, but I wouldn't count on it.
Playstation cert is just markrting.
I have few games which is awesome on grpahics side, but gameplay is like kid 5 years old made it.
I will never buy any game from PSM store.
Also they said that playstation phones will come somehow hybrid android, which could reboot or switch to playstation VITA rom, (like psvita, and that could make games compatibile to any ps phone) but no, sony didnt do anything.
Ps phone is just markrting and is a bull s, you know what i mean

I'm pretty sure that was a fan made-up rumour...
Anyway, I agree, Playstation certificate is a wasted potential. PSX emulators can do MUCH more than Sony's official PS app. Ok, i understand, you need to have the original PSX and games to be able to legally use emulators - but hey, who doesn't keep his old PSX on a silk pillow right ? I certainly do!
So about the PSN app...they really need to put more work into it. Come on Sony, you have thousands of games ready to enchance your smartphones, use it! If third-party emulators can flawlessly run each PSX games, you certainly can as well.
No, that wasnt fan boy rumor.
Sony says that by them self on official blog.
But that will never come true imo.

Shame they didn't introduce it already if they said they would
While these i5 MUCH and JXD devices may be a great handheld consoles, they are in no way an Xperia Play replacement. What makes Xperia Play cool and unique is that it looks like a slick, profesional phone you can use in the adult world without no one guessing it's also a great handheld console. This is the defining point and "an Xperia Play alternative" MUST have this feature. To anyone past high school it would look extremely stupid trying to have a public conversation holding these things.
So far, the Bladepad is the only legit replacement i've seen so far. The downside is you need to own an iPhone and I refuse to buy one. There is the small posibility they would release Bladepads for the most famous Android phones, so in a perfect scenareo I could buy a Galaxy 3 or 4 (whichever has better battery durability) and a Bladepad. But i've been waiting for ages and no news, so I guess I will need to buy a Xperia Play since for some reason no one is capitalizing on the slide-gamepad+phone thing. I only want to play old dos classics like Duke, Doom, and snes/gb emulations and thats it. The most hardware demanding game I like is the Carmageddon one, so I dont really need much extra power than what the Xperia Play has. It also has good battery life which is very important when gaming.
Yes I would love an Xperia Play 2 but im tired of waiting and it's just not happening, and no one wants to release a slide-gamepad+phone so there's no other option so I need to buy one asap to satisfy my gaming needs.
You guys think this is a legit Xperia Play new in box?

You're stating your opinion as fact. I do not care if you or anyone else thinks I'd look "stupid" using a JXD or i5 Much in public. I do not own either of those phones, I use Nexus devices, but those who do own those devices surely enjoy their phones.
You say that you don't care to play new games that are coming out, and there's nothing wrong with that, but most people do care about playing the latest games. The Xperia Play doesn't have the specs needed to enjoy many of the latest titles, and people are moving on because they care about gaming.

I agree. I own the Much I5 and enjoy it very much. yes it would be nice to hide the controls for convenience, but not because i think people judge me. 75% of the people that see me using it think that its awesome and want to know more about it and the other 25% don't care and go on with their own business. The Xperia Play is a gaming phone with physical controls this means anything can be its alternative as long as it have has those things.
PS: I can't wait for the release of the next Xperia Play but till then these alternatives will have to do.

Even if Sony doesn't make it i'm just talking about in general a major flagship company. Such as samsung, LG, Moterola, .....etc.
I wouldn't trade my xperia play for any phone.
It seems you're like me, playing mostly old games with emulator (tbh I think most android games are total crap except oldies remake).
The xperia play is just perfect for that, it doesn't need an upgrade, yet.
Maybe for the smartphone part, but it's just fine with it for the gaming part.
The day they release a PS2 emulator for android with more hardware requirement that'll be a different story though.

isn't this a bit cheaper.. even this is high for this phone nw.. but still.

I have to agree that there is no real alternative yet to Xperia Play with regards to the hidden keypad. But as a gaming phone, I guess the JXD and iMuch are close enough... gameplay wise. So it really falls onto the user if he wants to buy a device that's obviously aimed at gaming. I'm honestly torn about it since the phones are made and designed in China and may have suspect quality in terms of hardware and software. So I don't know, I'll probably wait for good custom roms or better support from the companies before actually buying one. I still use my Xperia Play as an MP3 player and a gaming device on the go but my Galaxy Note 10.1 is my current cellphone. Now if Nintendo made a 3DS that's also a cellphone, then my life would be so complete.
Like I said, the iMuch and JXD devices are great devices, but they aren't Xperia Play alternatives because for this, at least IMO they lack the defining feature of a perfectly stealth console in a phone. If I was in a business reunion and I got I a call and went like "excuse me, I have a call" and popped out a PSP into my ear and started talking people would think I must be ****ing kidding.
So having said that, can anyone tell me if the link I posted is a legit new Xperia Play? I dont want to buy the wrong one. Also, should i be expecting that price? It seems ovepriced to me.
Can't believe they're still selling Xperia Play and new.
Haven't Sony stopped producing it ?
