Anyone have one? Does it work with the nexus 4?
Im also interested in this. Anyone care to chime in if you have one? Hows the joysticks/controls when playing some of the top end games? i.e. GTA,Shadowgun etc... Thanks!
Works, it's just bluetooth. I personally didn't like the feeling of the buttons/joystick but I'm used to playing with xbox controllers so that's probably why.
I can confirm it works. I haven't played any of those games yet. But a buddy of mine is always showing it off with this Droid DNA. He has no complaints.
I got it for Xmas and it works 100% with GTA vice city, sonic cd, battle bears,

Awesome! Emulators here I come!
Yes I do own one, works perfectly but I do have to say that you do have to get used to the joysticks and buttons are really really loud, but it works perfect with emulators with an app.

I recently got an Ipega gamepad. Some buttons didn't work natively at first but after remapping them with Game Keyboard they work great. I'm currently playing Shadowgun, Dead Trigger and GTA VC with it. It's much cheaper than the Moga too, at least here in the UK http://dx.com/p/ipega-pg-9017-wirel...-ipad-iphone-smartphone-android-ios-pc-172963
I have the MOGA Controller, it works with most games. I just really use it with emulators though. I actually got it for free back in December, all I had to do was pay for shipping.
I like the idea of the mount mainly. The ps3 controller is convenient but I don't own a PS 3 and buying the controller would eliminate the all in one portable emulator.

I've got a steel series free and I can honestly say that it's awesome and works with the Nexus 4.
It's tiny, I have medium-big hands and I can play on it comfortably, I honestly don't know how they did it, but I'm calling witchcraft lol. The battery lasts a good while as well. I've used it with numerous ps1 games on FPSe and haven't had any problems. It is a little expensive, but I think this is one of those cases where you get what you pay for.
A couple months back (I think around Thanksgiving), just before the Moga came out, they were giving them out for free! It came with Sonic, Pacman and Modern Combat 4. Runs great on Modern Combat. Seems like it only works with certain games though.
I've got one, it works. I paid $5 for it and that is right about what it is worth.
I'll add that if somebody could get the moga to work as a standard BT controller (so it could be used with emulators) it would be FAR cooler but AFAIK it is semi-proprietary and only works with "moga" games.

There's also a new Moga Pro coming out sometime this year. They updated the controller itself and it looks like an x-box controlled. I'm gonna be waiting on that one to come out instead.

Works well with the universal driver app, but I really had the joysticks. Honestly they're not really joysticks, more like sliders. And I think is too strong a word. I just don't like using it for FPS games. It works better for emulators, but in the end I could get a cheaper controller for emulators.

Thank you, again.
I got the Moga for Jet Grind Radio and it worked well enough. Very responsive, but I didn't like the feel of the joysticks. All the Moga ended up doing was making me get a ps3 controller and a Gameklip, which I fell in love with. Then this led to me getting the SlimPort adapter. So now i just play all my emulators on my TV, which is all kinds of nostalgic goodness. The only advantage I give the Moga over dual shock + GameKlip is that the Moga is more travel-friendly (not as bulky).

That's beautiful, there's no way I could justify paying £65 for it though
The more I think about it i might buy the ps3 controller and rig a mount to the back of the controller to hold the phone.

FFVII... hands down my all time favorite game... its in a league of its own and now it will soon be in my pocket!
Now that we have Playstation 1 emulation, maybe we can have N64 emulation as well. I want to play Donkey Kong 64, Super Mario 64, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time sooo bad too. Oh and Pokemon Stadium/Snap as well. Those were classic games.
call me a skeptic, but i dont see how this can work out so well for the n1. Yes it had plenty of processing power, but with our touch screen I think the controls will be an issue.

I really do not see why people are so excited to use a Wii remote with the N1.
That means you have to set the n1 up to act like a TV and stand back from it. The screen is way to small in my opinion for that kind of use. Plus you have to carry around a wii remote also... Portability is completely out the window.
When there is that much trouble you got to ask yourself, is this useful? Yes it can be done, but why?
The last "great" emulation experience I've had on a smart phone was with my old Tilt. The specs on it were just powerful enough to run SNES emulators without any problems, it had a great d-pad for games, and you could map the keyboard's keys to act as button. Without all 3 of these things I have found emulators to be completely pointless.
If I was travelling on the bus/train/whatever, I might not be too keen on using the wii controller.
Since I only get the odd time now and again to play at home or work, I'd much rather use the controller than mess around with on-screen controls and dodgy multitouch. It's no hassle at all to set up.

Are you serious? You do realize people aren't swinging their Wii-motes at their phones right? We're just using bluetooth to use the Wii-mote as a hand held D-pad......I'm doing it right now with my phone sitting not more than 4 inches in front of me....I don't get your complaint?

Totally agree that it's awesome. I travel a lot and I like to play the occasional game in my hotel. I would prefer to play on a big screen but I'll take what I can get.
Any using one with gameloft Games like nova or 9mm?

Those games don't support controller functions. (I tried)
You need the sixaxis app from the market. it takes a lot of work with the screen tap emulation to get it just right, but it is well worth it. I play modern combat 3 with my ps3 controller, so it should work on anything.
Ya I have been screwing with sixaxis and a Sony branded ps3 bt controller. Finally got my own used one. Paired it up and with some touch mapping I can play gta very well. And about 9mm and Nova I'm still testing profiles for each but was able to play both with my controller. Just tested a few basic functions like anolog stick left and right and some other controls. Hows MC3 I'd like to try it. So far I'm fully set for gta and am working on 9mm and nova2 mappings, and I'm going to map air attack HD, madden 12 (if do able), NFS shift, and NFS hotpursuit, would like to do mc3 as well. Waiting to find the perfect settings for the buttons...

Not really hard at all. I did airattack HD last night and the tricky part was setting it to relative touch and getting the anolog button sensetivity right. For gta I noticed it worked without touch profile but it wasn't controlling right so I did one anyway. I have started on 9mm and Nova. Should be done with those Tonight after work.

Ok, I don't own a PS3 gaming console, so I have a stupid question.
Do I just need to go to the store and buy a bluetooth PS3 controler, or is there a off brand one that works well also?
Thanks!
EDIT: something like this I suppose... http://www.google.com/products/cata...a=X&ei=IpcUT5zUM8HgsQKFs4DsAw&ved=0CHgQ8wIwBA
Pretty sure off brand ones will work but I know from experience the Sony sixaxis works great. Used ones can be bought on ebay for around 25 bucks... or go New.
Sent from my A500 flexstriker using XDA Premium
Will do. Thanks.
Off brand ones don't always work with sixaxis, might not work with gta. I bought and returned one before getting the official ps3 one. The legit ps3 controller works great wired without sixaxis, or wireless with sixaxis. Also, the ps3 keyboard works greas as a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Looks like the only "for sure" is to get the controller with the Sony name on it. Quick question for those that run this setup. The Dual Shock controller has the "rumble" does that work with the tablet setup? If not, I would hope to find one without the dual shock to save a little cash. Seems like writing the program to use the rumble would be a lot of unnecessary work.
My experience is that the on screen controls are abysmal. Its hard to do 360s for starters. Navigation controls are pretty straight forward but can be rather non-responsive, particularly when you get into a hairy situation with trying to deal with multiple zombies. I dunno, I don't think there's anything wrong with my touch screen display but I've found the game to be mostly frustrating.
I really like it. controls not hard. 7in. Screen is perfect for these type of games. what I'm really luvin is Nova3. Especially on myltiplayer/deathmatch mode. Sonic 2 thd rocks. Mass effect great also. Wish storage size was larger so I could load all my games like I have on my prime. Only the best ones & emulators go on my nexus 7
Only thing I hate is the random 360 turns it does on me and I don't know where the hell I am.
From the Note to Nexus 7
Yeah, I thought it was just me.... The zoom is 0 or 100%, no way to go in and out, it either fires one bullet or a dozen it seems like, and movement is really goofy. Maybe that's why it's free now...
A lot of people are playing with a ps3 controller and its pretty awesome with a profile map.

Yeah I get the same thing once in awhile as well.
As far as games go, it's o.k. - I enjoy it from time to time, especially due to the graphics. To be honest, my Nexus 7 game of the moment is Major Mayhem.
I use an OnLive Universal Controller, myself. On screen controls have always been a waste of time, so be glad that Madfinger was nice enough to integrate controller support, unlike most Gameloft titles. Keyboard/mouse support would have been ideal, but the difficulty level is fine for controllers.
Does it compare to popular console franchises like Halo? Of course not. But it's decent enough for a tablet game, and until bigger developers start producing AAA titles for Android, this is the best we've got.
Anyone have zero issues with this game? I was thinking the bugs initially were due to a defective digitzer on my n7, but having downloaded and played max Payne without any issues, I'm lead to believe that the game is at fault.

Since they ripped off my dollar and threw Android under the bus, I can't say Madfinger holds much of my respect anymore.
But... This game is meant to be played with a controller. It was even demoed using the nyko android controllers, so that is by far the best way to play.

Dudes!! With SixAxis, you can make Android see it as a gamepad, so when you go to Dead Trigger, it sees that you have a gamepad connected and automatically makes your analog sticks analog. You just have to set the buttons to what you want.
No need for any special profile inputs. It's so insane. LoL!!
I will admit that all 1st person shooters on phones are a little hard and impossible to play. I actually wouldn't them if they didn't have that GamePad support.
How are people physically playing the game? It's looks like many of you are using gamepads.
I've tried playing it just using the touchscreen but it's very unnatural and awkward. Anyone out there using the touchscreen primarily and if so, any tips?
This game does lagg on my nexus 7....I can't actually play it properly so I uninstalled it.
other madfinger games play fine but this game i'm having issues with

Same here. Only see the 180-degree character flip in Madfinger games like Dead Trigger and Shadowgun. Games from Rockstar such as Max Payne and GTA III doesn't have that issue. Definitely controller bug in Madfinger code. Being that Madfinger made Dead Trigger difficult without better weapons and has in-app purchase nag to upgrade weapons I'm not surprised they intentionally introduce the bug to frustrate people into paying money for weapons.

Try going into Settings>Apps>Dead Trigger and clear cache, clear data, force stop and uninstall.
Go into Settings>Wi-Fi, click on three vertical squares, select Advanced, and set Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep to Always.
Set the Display sleep to 30 minutes.
Redownload game. A lot of crash and no sound issues with new game downloads are due to incomplete downloads.
The random 180 bug is a known problem with the unity game engine itself which madfinger happens to like to use. Its up to unity to fix it, and madfinger said on their Facebook that they were working with the unity team on it.

Come back to this discussion after you've tried out at least an xbox 360 controller.
On screen controls are lacking.. when you use real tactile controls that don't force you to cover up some of the screen, it makes it a different feeling device all together.
Any controller like the xbox 360 controller, Sony Playstation SIXASIS bluetooth, or any other wonderful controller compatible with our devices stock or rooted.
Hey Everyone, I wanted to take the time to let everyone know one game/app that works really well on the maxx that I've had compatibility issues on every other droid unit I've owned which is like 12 different droids. The FPSE app allows you to play Playstation game roms on your phone and on this baby it works great without much set up at least for one of the most problematic games FF IX. I've put about 7 hrs on the game now and even the music sounds normal and no glitching. If you have the time I believe it would be worth taking the time to check it out. Also Six Axis controller aloows you to pair a PS3 controller through bluetooth to get the full console experience.

I'm ordering the PTV3000 so I'll update and let people know how the wireless HD works with gaming using the PS emulator.
I also want to see how Mario Kart works.
So I've never been much of a tablet or phone gamer, but it'd be a waste with so much processor and gpu at my disposal. I just got Drastic and GBA emulators so I'm having a ball playing DS and GBA games. I do wish that I had a controller though. So I'm looking to buy one. Right now, I'm thinking about getting a Moga portable or iMpulse. I could just hook up my PS3 controller but I want a controller I can throw in my bag cause I do a lot flying and playing some emulator action would kill some airplane time. What kind of controller set ups do you guys have?
I have a Bluetooth controller called phonejoy, which is also the name of the website I got it from. Used in conjunction with an app called bluezIME, free on the market, it works perfectly with all my emulators. I have emus for DS, GBA, GBC, Game Gear, Genesis, NES, SNES, and PSX. it will also work with some android native games, but it was pretty flawed back when it was still new to the scene with the native games. It may work better with them now, but I never bother with them.

I was looking at that one! I have some questions if you don't mind answering. Can it hold the tablet in landscape mode? If not, is it uncomfortable using the controller while it's closed? How are the buttons? (too sticky?, cheap feeling?, too much resistance?, etc) That one looks really portable and I actually like the idea of being able to place a phone in the center, but unfortunately I use my tegra note more for gaming than my nexus 4 so I was unsure whether or not to research further.
PS: Whoa. Not to be weird but your post has your location and it says Macon, GA. I'm a Mercer student. Small world!
I actually have the model that looks like an old ps2 controller. Nowhere to place a phone in the middle. I always invest in a stand of some form or fashion for my devices.
At the time I bought this one, it was only one of two models they had, and the other one was the same, just without the thumb sticks.
I never really liked hand held games, so that one was a better fit for me.
And I live in Dublin now, 45 minutes east of Macon. Had to get out of there. Macon has gone so far down hill since we first moved there in 97. You picked one of the best schools around to go to tho, just sucks that its in Macon.
Hope this info helps.
