XPERIA Z Playstation certified multiplay + HDTV gaming! - Xperia Z General

Just came across this video on youtube!
You may or may not know but the Xperia Z is playstation certified, but being my first Xperia device after the X10, i was totally taken aback seeing the XZ allows you to play multiplayer games with other devices
but most surprising of all as shown halfway through the VIDEO, you can actually mirror the game onto your TV like a console and play on your TV, sorry if i'm acting like a noob, but i did not know that was even possible and SUPERCOOL!
Definitely going to get a MHL cable now, i can see many features and benefits of the mirror TV function
IT is in French so if anyone comes across an english version please post.
Also what are your thoughts on Mirror TV Feature on the XZ and what would be the reason you want to mirror your XZ to your TV if you did?

One-touch mirroring is designed to work together with an NFC-enabled BRAVIA® TV

Mobile gamers, warm up your thumbs because PlayStation Mobile has arrived on Android. In fact Sony’s new PlayStation Mobile store is now available for all manner of PlayStation certified devices, including Sony Mobile’s own handsets, a number of the latest HTC Android devices and further afield

Does that mean there is / will be native TEKKEN on Android? 'Native' meaning 'not emulated' here.

wow
that's great!

would be nice if you could use a ps3 controller via Bluetooth, technically this should be possible.

Apparently this playstation thingy with sony is old news. Already existed since 2011. But I just wished we could take advantage of at least PSP games in it. I mean come on PSX is way too old for the likes of Xperia Z. The graphics doesn't even match up now.
PSX is so like GTA san andreas when it comes to graphics. Pixels!!!

i agree, STILL A COOL FEATURE for the Z

Well.. couple of points.. (one's a bit picky!)..
it's DLNA (not DNLA!)
and
I believe that you can download mediasharing apps from the market which enable DLNA.. I haven't tried any of them, cos I don't have any DLNA kit.. but they are there..
Lol. That's what I get for posting from my phone.
I know there are apps in the market, that's not the point. Sony has been telling us for almost a year that we would have native support and now are dropping the update even though the phone supports it. Its like the dual touch they were to lazy to enable until we complained about it

One of the apps that I like is the 2Player music app. DLNA categorizes all the media automatically and since I have 8K songs on the network, I don't have to try to cram them onto the phone (though I do have a 32G card with 5K music files). Allows playlists, and all the auto categories. Free too.
Apparently the DLNA app from the arc dump works on the X10. I don't get why SE couldn't just port it themselves.. It would take all of 1 day to test it out

There's no business case for DLNA guys! In Arc they put HDMI becuase they realized that there are not so many devices on the market that supports DLNA!

download tigermame from the market which plays all cps2 roms!
or get FPSE (ps1) and rip the game to your phone
I'm a bit giddy to see that my video found it's way here that damn fast
Anyway, it's actually pretty simple and easy stuff... TigerArcade from the Android Market.
I searched on the market but can't find any of the apps listed..anyone have a link to it for the market?

I know that a lot of the emulators disappeared a bit ago.. however asking people to do a search for "Where are Tigers" would likely give off articles on Southeast Asia or India. ^_^ (real tigers, instead of Tiger emulators)

i highly recommend rom fetcher for people who dont no how to get roms the traditional way or cant be bothered

Is Tiger Arcade being pulled from the market? Daaang....
EDIT* looks like all the Tiger apps are gone....
All Tiger Apps here:
http://apps.tigerplay.net/
They are free, there is no need to hide.
Be warned though, latest version of TigerArcade (which runs Marvel vs. Capcom perfectly) does not have save states, and the old version with save states does not work.

Absolutely doubtful. Sega, who allegedly had yongzh's emulators pulled, has not announced any plans to release anything for Android. I'd point at Gameloft who has certain interest in the XPlay but just don't want competition for the new games from the emulated ones.

If Gameloft wants to push out something original to compete with what we'd be emulating, they're more than welcome to.
Based on their other near-IP-theft jobs, I think they'd be the best candidate to try re-creating MvC... or some 2D fighter that brings mobile phone gaming out of the touch-screen-limited ghetto.

[Q] Any chance to raise a project Xperia Play - PS3 pairing?

I've been searching the net for a solution for pairing our xperia play to ps3 so we can use our xperia play as a ps3 controller.
I'm sure there're lots of people here who can donate to this project.
I'll donate my lifetime filesonic.com premium account and money too.
PSP, PS Vita, Sony Vaio and Bravia screens can be paired to ps3 so why our xperia play not?
Is it maybe the bluetooth stack. That's where I would start.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
I'm not a developer nor programmer so I'm looking for a recognize developer who be able to develop such feature.
I'm pretty sure it's impossible unless you have the pairing keys from the ps3 and even with that someone needs to completely reverse engineer the protocol. So I don't think anyone would put that much work into something with little gain.
i didn't thought it's such a really hard project to do.
i think it's a app that SE ought to develop.

Oh, sorry, I thought you wanted somebody from the community to do it. You should email Sony directly and ask them, I don't think any SE developers read this forum.
I don't know how you'd be able to use R2 and L2, but I'm all in for the idea.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
You lose R2, L2, R3, and L3, so I don't see the point of this.
Is the request for remote play pairing? I would love that. Or is it for pairing xplay as controller for ps3?
xperia play is still more compatible than the old PSP in the above two cases - at least it has the right (not just left) analog stick and maybe under some scenarios tapping on the touch pad right and left centres could emulate R3 and L3 buttons (or R2 and L2 as an option) so I say it would be great to use for PS3 remote play.
Regarding yet another case: PS3 controller connecting to xplay - I know there is an app for this but because i don't have the cable to connect the two I have not tried it yet but planning to do it with my sony tablet s first as it sucks for gaming without the hardware controls.
I hope the above helps.
hi ps3taker,
i mean to use xperia play as a ps3 controller but i'll be glad if we can use our xperia play as a remote play.
that's the whole point in playstation phone, isn't it?
and i saw the video pairing ps3 controller to xperia play, i need to root my device for it i think.

Have you played a PS3 game lately? While this may be fine for some games, many games use the L2 and R2 triggers heavily, and having to press them with your thumbs instead of your forefinger can make a game quite tough to say the least.
Sounds like a good tech demo but I just don't see the need to put extreme effort into it.

I think I read somewhere that it isn't possible due to differences in the bluetooth stack implementation in Android and the PS3...

Mad Catz Mojo PC Streaming

I can't seem to find any information on the required hardware, or the quality of the stream etc. Anybody know anything about this?

Hello JJ, at the moment we at Mad Catz didn't state that, we will try to clarify that as soon as possible. Our device can be expanded and that's a really interesting feature, however we can't say anything by now. It's true that NVIDIA's GameStream functionality will come shortly, will see what we can do

I'll open mine on Christmas morning and do an unboxing/mini-review. We need to get this forum jumping. Honestly, though, with the specs, the MOJO beats everything. I can't wait to open it, but I technically bought it for "The Family" so I can't do anything! The waiting is killing me.
It's not looking like the community, nor Mad Catz actually care about this product. I think if Mad Catz invested in a solid launcher for this, something for the 10ft experience, they could push it as a feature and really get some hype around this.

To paraphrase dheku-00: You need a bit of Android nerdery. If you're familiar with sideloading and backups and flashing then this is a good device for you. I'm starting to be really quite happy with it. I can't wait for more games to become natively compatible, but in the meantime I'm pretty comfortable ripping games from my tablet and loading them to the MOJO.
This isn't a machine for the mainstream gamer. Certainly isn't friendly as a child's game system.

So far, I've only ripped two: SuperGNES and Team Awesome. Both worked, and both are paid versions (SuperGNES from Google, Team Awesome from Amazon). I have ripped Horn, but haven't had a chance to load it on.
I use AppMonster to rip. I heard that Titanium uses its own format when backing up thus the other machine needs Titanium also (not sure if that is true or not)...AppMonster rips the APK file and I just search through and find the OBB/Data if necessary.
