Currently Playing-Onlive - Xperia Play General

Just wanting to see what other people are playing Onlive. I'm currently playing darksiders.

I tried playing some games onlive but I guess my internet was to slow because it lagged to a point where it was unplayable

Yeah that can be annoying. But if you come across some fast wifi you should give it another try.

I play Saint's Row The Third...
It runs very well on 3G as well - Only downside is the battery life when your phone is doing something such as rendering, processing, downloading and everything else all at the same time... ><

Yes!!!!! FF8 works on our phone

The cutscenes lag a little but, I just wanted to let you guys know. That means good things, because it was miles ahead of other PS1 games.

Is nine a little choppy too?
Very much so. It won't even play the audio on fmv's. But audio in game play is pretty solid considering how most games are choppy. Same for tactics.

Is the sound problem the emulators fault or our phones?
Like how much better can the emulator get.
All my questions ultimately lead to wanting to know how possible a PSP and Sega Dream cast / SegaSaturn/Sega Genesis emulator are.
Well the n64 emulater is on the way. When I had my g1 snes games had the sound issue. Then an update fixed it. Due to the fact that are phones are the most powerful android devices for gaming. I'm less inclined to believe its our galaxies. With this kick ass gpu and all.

How to make dungeon defenders run smooth?

Ok so i recently stimbled upon a game called dungeon defenders and its pretty graphics heavy. Problem is when you go into a multiplayer game it lags like crazy unless you turn the graphics to minimum in which case the game looks like ****.
Im running the bionix newgen rom not overclocked or.anything, but what could i do to help speed the game up without sacraficing graphics
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Try the stock rom, or try not to put the graphics resolution to full. the game still looks good if it's halfway.

You need a phone with Tegra 2 processor to run smooth. Dungeon Defenders is optimized for Tegra 2. Unreal Engine is optimized for Tegra 2 also.

yup, but the tegra 2 phones that are out now isn't really that smooth with this game. Maybe the SGS2 can handle this game very well.

In single player my game is smooth. But in multiplayer it is not. This is an issue with a lot of games out there, and it happens do to the network coding in the game and it being crappy and sucking up a ton of CPU time. A PC game from 7 years ago could play upto 150 people in a single map, but once 60 people got on everyone complained that the game played horribly and the frame rate sucked, but play with 20 people and it was nice and smooth. This has been an issue for lots of games for a long time, and was one of the primary reasons LAN parties came about, better and smoother graphics from a local 1gig lan compared to the internet and lagginess because the CPU didn't have to work as hard with the network code.
Try playing a multiplayer VIA WIFI with both people on the same WIFI and see if that makes a difference.
I'm curious if anyone ever found out if there are any ports that I could open on my router to get better connections.

I uninstalled the game because it kept freezing my phone and was laggy. Too bad too cause it seems like a fun game.

FPse on Galaxy S II

So, installed FPse and downloaded crash team racing .bin file but it does not run! it open and freezes but sound still goes on.
at the same time, this is FPse on gs2 topic. post your FPse experiences with gs2 here. driver 2 is coming at 40kb/s, hope it'll run better
EDIT: Driver 2 runs perfect 60fps
I play Final Fantasy 9.
Runs really well except that there is no sound in the cut scenes.
Gran Turismo 2 runs at 60 fps. Haven't tried anything else yet.

I've tried FF9 as well but all saves I make (in game, not save states) are corrupt.
I'm new to FPse, any idea what I could be doing wrong? Other than that it's working great.
Only suggestion I have for the OP is to try a different bios...maybe thats a fix for me too, but I've already tried two.

I've been playing crash bandicoot 2 and it runs pretty smooth with good sound. I dont get on with the touch screen pad though id prefer it if it gave some feed back or something idk I just prefer the n64oid pad.

everything I have tried runs perfect at 60fps (ocasional slowdown to ~40 on loading etc
Make sure you have a bios selected. Also there seems to be a bug where you need to select the bios twice (you will know when it has worked as it will say please restart - at this point go to close/resart)
And remember you need to select the bios for each game
Re my post above:
It looks like I didn't load the bios twice as someone mentioned. Just did that and now my saves work.
Thanks, now we just need a wiimote compatible bluetooth stack or other controller option

Has anyone managed to get Tomb Raider II to work? Mine gets to the menu and then freezes when going to play the game

fpse is very finicky, however that being said it also runs very well. It doesn't like to save settings, and will usually force close if you try to save them ( at least for me), but once i get in game (i play ffvii alot) it plays wonderful.
also Gran Turismo 2 runs perfect 60fps still didn't figure out why CTR does not work for me since it works usually everywhere.
If anyone wants to try CTR on their own devices and report me if they work or not i would be grateful.
CTR? What's that?

When is the n64 emulator gonna be back in the market?
I tried ripping my CTR disc but that wasn't working for me but I found a ROM that did work. For some reason the audio tracks are different in this rom which kind of sucks, anyone got a original CTR rom working?
psx4droid runs it but its slow..
I pay tekken 3 on mine, works absolutely great, even managed to find savegames with unlocks which work as memory cards.. on a sidenote PSX4Droid wouldn't play the game at all
Tried few PSX games (NFS HP, Pepsi-Man, Bloody Roar, MDK) and all are looking so pixelated (as it is using software rendering and not OpenGL). Same to you guys?
Tried with Screen filtering, it smooth the lines a bit.. but still pixelated + it slowdowns a lot the emulation.
Tried with HLE off, no effect..
Using "scph1001.bin" bios.
Gte acceleration checked
Mdec acceleration checked

Some questions before I buy...

1. Whats it like as a wireless hotspot, my Galaxy S2 is flaky at best with lots of dropouts?
2. Can it play avi files out of the box, and if not, whats playback like in Moboplayer, any sync issues?
3. What sort of games are currently available in the PS store?
4. Hows the camera?
5. Has anyone loaded Google Music and streamed their music?
Thanks all!!

This is just personal experience, but YMMV.
1. Wireless hotspot has worked great for me. I hook my iPad up to it when I'm at my grandparent's house and there's never any loss of connection. That's even on the awful Kentucky EDGE network, too.
2. I can't really help there because I never play those types of videos.
3. The PS store? If you mean the Playstation Pocket app, if you're in America (and possibly Canada), nothing. All you gots is Crash Bandicoot. FPSE is better for PS1 emulation, anyway, if that's what you're looking for. A lot of people get their games from Gameloft.
4. The camera is pretty decent. It's better than the camera on my old Desire HD that I sold. It would be better with different software (it's the AOSP app), so download Vignette or Camera 360 if you want better pictures. On this subject, the FFC looks black and white unless you're in good light.
5. I have and it worked fine on said slow network. The speaker is really loud, too.

2. The Stock Media Play can not play .avi straight out the box.....BUT......all you need to do is download a better media player and it will work straight out the box.
MoboPlayer is my recomendation to you. It plays everything i have thrown at it so far.
3. The actual Playstation games are not worth buying at all imo. Just download FPSE and get all your PS games on the emulator. (leglally you need to own the games before you download them, blah blah technical blah blah).
The Xperia Play games from Gameloft and a few other devs are quite decent quality. I love Gameloft games. Some people do not though. Remember this is a phone first and foremost. Not a dedicated games console.
4. Camera is OK. 5MP is decent. Not amazing, but clear enough to have them pictures full blown on your PC monitor without seeing many pixels.
The video recording is ok too. Not 720p, but not far off, it takes a keen eye to tell the difference.

2. Yes, Moboplayer works great. You'll have no issues playing standard def content, and in some cases 720p works too.
3. Very few, Crash bandicoot, midevil, and jet moto or something along those lines, haven't used it in a while. I used fpse and play the games I want to play (Final Fantasy VII in my case) I also use it for Super nintendo, nintendo, gameboy, and N64.
4. Fine for a cell camera. Not as good as the more camera oriented cyber-shot phones, but it holds it's own. Also the shoulder buttons make it easy to tak pictures compared to touch screen shutter.
As stated this phone has the loudest speakers out of any phones I've seen. It has two very nice cell phone speakers rather than the standard one, so everything from ring tones to games are plenty loud. They also have extremely good frequency response for cell phone speakers. Music, games, videos, everything sounds "fuller" on the Play compared to other phones.
Thanks all for the great answers.
Overall I just want to make sure I can load Google Music app despite being in the UK and that there aren't audio sync issues with avi files like some phones i've tried.

Well on android market Google Music apps says
This app is incompatible with your Sony Ericsson R800i.

im from the uk. Also ive played h264 videos with mobo player which are more taxing on the phone and they play fine so avi should be fine, i guess...?
Also found this on web
Reports are flooding in that Google has extended invites to its cloud-based music streaming service for residents of the UK. The buzz over Google Music has been building since it launched in the US following Google I/O.
In order to enjoy the music-streaming goodness that is Google Music Beta , you’ll need a Nexus S running Android 2.3.4. Users who fit the bill will be greeted with a self-install notification following the completion of the sign up on Google’s website.

So im guessing its coming to the rest of us at some point?
Yeah i've installed the US version of music before in the UK by grabbing the apk from Modaco or using Market Access (through root).

If you're addicted to flashing ROM's, don't get it. I only got one because I traded my Inspire for it.
The game buttons are the selling point. I personally missed development going on...so my mom needed a phone with a SAMOLED so I got a Nexus S for her. :-D

'Free'. It makes you pay to get your stuff right away, or you can wait anywhere from 4 minutes to over 1 day. And many of the better upgrades require the same premium currency as skipping wait times. And some of the cars, too. I love it, though, and there are ways to enjoy it.
I saw a hack so you don't have to wait which is what assume you mean by other ways to enjoy it lol.

Asphalt 7 used to work amazingly well with this tablet. The last update ruined it. Instead of enhancing the graphics, the developers have really screwed them up. Plus there are frequent lags while racing.
You can get N.O.V.A 3 or Dead Trigger if you like FPS. Both work well with the six-axis controller app.

BEat Hazard is a blast on the touch screen. Also great is Super Hexagon.
I really liked Plants vs Zombies, Ninja Village and Magicka. Raiden Legacy is also a game you can pick up anytime to play.
