The Adreno GPU on the evo does not suck. Games just need to be adapted to it. Here's a video I just made showing a game made specifically for the Snapdragon GPU. Now if all companies did this...
Update: New video ,video and sound quality are slightly less crappy and image is not mirrored (Recorded using my iSight cam since I dont have my flip ATM). Notice how I pan around a lot to show how smooth it runs.
And yes, the version up on gameloft's mobile site is the updated version for Snapdragon. I paid $4.99 for it. The game itself is quite fun ;D
------
The quality of the video is not the best, but you can tell the game runs VERY smooth and the graphics are the best i've seen on any cell phone, bar none. The game looks better than it did on my iPhone 3GS. Textures are crisp and the game has an HD feel to it. Also controls are very good, the huge screen on the evo really helps.

1. Please tell me this game is in the Market (or soon will be)!
2. Why the mirror image?
I'm very impressed. I hope to see much more like it.

I agree. I had an IPhone 3g that I sold to buy my first Android ( Samsung moment) and was very satisfied, except for the games! They just didn't compare. I realized they're only like 8 know' s at the most compared to iphones, which I seen easily be 200 MB each. Definitely cumming up!

Nova.......its one of those gamesloft games. its only 4.99 too
The game looks good, but it wasn't made with Snapdragon nor the Adreno GPU initially, it's a port of an iPhone game originally created with the PowerVR GPU found on that processor.
It's a good port, yes, but I think your point is a bit lost.
I would love to see a game built for the Snapdragon and Adreno in mind, if a port can work this well, I can only imagine a game being built-from the ground up with the Adreno in mind would look and run even better.
All of the hd games from gameloft are amazing i currently own nova... gangstar which is similar to grand thieft auto.. and asphalt which is the best racing game for android there is most of thier games arent in the market you have to go to thier mobile site however you can try the asphalt hd demo that is in the market if you go to thier site you can get thier lets golf game for free. It is a golf game with amazing graphics dont really play it alot but its free so i have it.
Yes any game that's optomized for a perticular GPU will excell, but here's the problem the world doesn't revolve around the Snapdragon. So the better fix would be for the GPU to adapt to the game and not the other way around, the GPU isn't complete garbage but it could be a hell of alot better with proper coding and better drivers.

+1 gameloft is making some great games
I have:
Nova
Gangstar
Lets Golf
Asphalt5
H.A.W.X
They all runn really well. I have had some trouble with touch points freezing if for example I'm steering in Gangstar and pressing the gas and let up on the gas the steering gets stuck until I hit the gas again or let go and retouch the steering wheel.
All in all though I'm thoroughly impressed with the games
Yea i have that problem with gangstar to also with asphalt it glitches during the end of races or high speeds nova online multiplayer is the sh**
Does NOVA let you play mutiplayer cross system, evo <> iphone?
Im not sure but there is alway alot of people playing online unlike toonwars or any other multiplayer ive came across
Man, looking at the gameloft catalog, they definitely need to port driver over from the palm pre. That would make me a very, very, happy person

Actually, I can tell you with 100% confidence that the version I'm running was coded SPECIFICALLY for Qualcomm-Based snapdragon chips. Trust me, it would not be running as smooth if I was running the PowerVR version that is available for the Motorola Droid.
haha im going to try and find my post from the hero forums when i told everyone the adreno is secretly BA

Well, while that is true, there are literally millions of Snapdragon phones being released and sold as we speak. Yet I had to jump through hoops to get this game, as it's not available through Android Market. Then you wonder why Gameloft goes on record to complain that their Android games don't sell as well as they do on the iPhone. It's like they want to have their cake and eat it, too....Ridiculous. Also, it's NOT hard to adapt games to the Adreno GPU from PowerVR(Hint: Fill Rate.)....Especially when there's a huge market, with huge demand, with millions of people just waiting to buy games that perform well on their phones.
It's Nova, and it was made for the iPhone... and it lags on the HTC EVO, 20-30fps...
Games that do run well are something like Raging Thunder 2.
Also fix the audio, ear rape.
Anyone tryied Gameloft Games on Folio 100, did they work fine?
Thanks,
bastospn
tested ashalt,letsgolf old editions, asphalt 50/50 letsgolf messed up gfx..
all new HD editions not compatible..(at least the 4 i tried)
The main reason for that is probably texture compression.
We have two mayjor GPU brands on Android these days Qualcomm (Adreno) and PowerVR, both use proprietary texture compression algorithms, which are not supported on Nvidia chipsets.
Simply compare the OpenGL extensions for HTC Desire HD (Adreno), Samsung Galaxy S (PowerVR) with the Folio.
However as many Tegra tablets are anounced (and at leaste the Xoom will get some attention I think) this should change in the future.
Today I did a test with avatar. Result blank screen and back to the desk .jj
I download Earthworm Jim and is working fine!
I have graphic's problems with Gangstar West Coast.
Any solution?
I'm playing Dungeon Hunter with no problems.
Great game
Dungeon hunter on folio? Are you sure?The last time i tried it doesnt work

I read somewhere that Nvidia has been talking to Gameloft so they will support Tegra 2. So perhaps we will see more Gameloft games supporting the platform in the near future.

they just need to make it official, so expect something around 24th feb. when XOOM gets out in US, then gameloft probably will follow quickly and we get our tegra2 games, and the tegra online games app from nvidia to help us locate them.
I saw a demo of dungeon hunter on a phone and a tablet (tegra 2 platform) and it look very nice. I only hope it have android froyo 2.2 support.
I own an ipod touch (last generation, the one with camera) and the game is awesome, imagine that with tegra .
Nvidia Tegra 2 sure need some games...
Yes I'm sure. It says "Dungeon Hunter". And it's about a guy that returns from dead and fight monsters in dungeons ...
Sure it is You are a lucky guy... do you mind to share how do you get it?
hey i wanna know how did u get it, too
actually, i tried the Dungeon Hunter 2 as well as the Sacred Odyssey, both of them cannot run...just closed after a blan screen.....

Update on list
hey guys, theres no video here but i contacted the guy who has the retail model of the galaxy s ii and i asked him to try out dungeon defenders.
he tried it and this what happenend:
"Currently all the startup pre-video things work fine, but the main menu-part is absent, only some green text near the top right hand corner saying "How to play". You hit that and it takes you to the tutorial, but nothing else seems to be there. Not sure what's going on "
any ideas whats going on here guys?
im thinking its got to do with graphics problems on gingerbread, but I might be wrong.
From his twitter:
dom_armstrong Dom Armstrong
http://youtu.be/0xbzyrVNiVA some 3d gaming on the #Samsung #Galaxys2 with "Reckless Racing". Trying to get Dungeon Defender...
Its because it wasn't built on/for the Mali 400 MP. Every hardcore game has different versions of it so as to accommodate the different GPU's. E.g. asphalt 6 has a version for powerVR sgx540 phones, whilst it has a different version for Adreno 205 and so on and so forth. So most hardcore games will have to be ported for the Mali 400MP, just like how it is being done for tegra devices now. Eg. Gameloft is making ports of every android game they have released for the tegra devices like the Atrix and Xoom.
look what i found
"the Galaxy S 2 is never anything less than blazingly, disgustingly fast. Dungeon Defenders, which uses the Unreal mobile engine, looks gorgeous and plays smoothly"
thats from this new review of the galaxy s ii from electric pig
http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2011/04/22/samsung-galaxy-s-2-review/
Yeah I think that the version that he tested (on the OP post) was not compatible with the MALI400 GPU that's why it struggles like he said. That reminds me the exact same situation for the original Galaxy S when it was out there was one of the best game (if not the best game formerly) that had all the textures white and therefore was unplayable : Gangstar west coast hustle. That took about a month and a version made for the galaxy S was out with even better graphics than other version, and nowadays every game has a "galaxy S" version so don't worry too much bro
They don't necessarily need to make separate versions for different GPUs as the APIs are the same, but as with desktop cards you need to do compatibility testing. There's also a question of optional features which might be present on some GPUs but not all.
I hope and believe Galaxy S II will be very successful, at which point everyone will have to make sure their game works on Mali 400 as well as SGX, Tegra 2 and Adreno.
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
Hello everyone! I used to play in my old LG 2 Mini games like Tomb Raider 1 and Tomb Raider 2. The game in some places, more open areas had a few frames drops. That was only with full details settings. In the middle details this no longer happened, run at full speed. I bought the Moto G4 Plus, thought it would have a better performance, but it turned out to be worse than a 2014 device (in my country) with 1GB of Ram and a Quad-Core processor. I really can not understand ... It is only my device or does anyone else have this problem?

Have a look at here for benchmarks https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/rom-benchmarks-t3575807 You can play heavy games for sure, some people do it,but you can compare the specs of your phone with others and see that the cpu isn't that suitable then others. It's not a high end device. Keep this in mind!
Yes, I know it's not a hi-end device and is not the best for gaming, but ... a 2014 device with a lower hardware could do better ... anyway I did a benchmark on AnTuTu v6. 2.7 and my score was 43620 running on LineageOS 14.1-20170918, stock kernel. I really do not take seriously benchmark results, I'd rather use it to prove it. This one goes to my mother, I'm going to change my smartphone, going back to LG .... Thanks!
