My long-time favorite Android games are Wixel and Word Mix; both have free versions. But in terms of games that can take advantage of the Epic's power, well... I haven't gotten any really demanding Android games yet. Air Control works a lot better than it did on my Moment though.
I think emulation is really the way to go. Especially now that you have a keyboard!
Nova, quake 3, asphalt 5 and crusade of destiny all work and look great.
Yes, Crusade of Destiny.. The game I love to hate playing. so much leveling it's crazy.
Best game would have to be caligo chaser. check it out if your into side scrolling RPG's.
I like air control, drop, and paper toss.. just some simple games I can play to pass time and boredom when at work or out n about.

Angry Birds and Robo Defense
Angry Birds
Chess Free
Flight Director
Guns 'n' Glory
Move it!
OpenTyrian
Super K.O Boxing 2
and The Inferno!
I've only tried a few, but my favorite so far, by a fair margin, is Homerun Battle 3D.

I actually cant get this to work on my Epic. Always says I dont have enough space. How much do you need....???
I'm loving my HD7 and the few game titles I have on it, but I want more. I've dug into the marketplace many times but, I was hoping you would recommend the gems you've found.
My Collection so far
Xbox Live
Flight Control
Flowerz
Hexic Rush
ilomilo
Revolution
Tiki Towers
Regular Titles
BowlingXX
Bubble Birds
Bubble Jump
ChicknVixens
Color Flow
Electric Beans
Fast Food
Impossible Game
Impossilbe Shooter
Putt In Golf
Quadra
SkyDiver Classic
Unite
Word Chief
Great game for me:
Pixodus.
Add Meteor Mania or Meteor Storm to it. And Scetch Defense.
The Harvest is fun to me, the graphics are amazing
I like Flowers, Hexic Rush, and Ilomilo too. Chicks'n'Vixens is OK, Color Flow gets old fast, and ElectricBeans was too easy. But they're still on my phone, so I value them to some degree
I've gotten a bit of play time from the following (free) games:
MoveIt
Scrambled Free (I play this a LOT)
Sudoku
Word Tangle Free
Yahpips (Yahtzee game)
The one paid game you don't have listed that I like to play is:
Need for Speed: Undercover
My 3 year old likes the following (free) games:
Dibidogs Chase
Final Approach Lite
Fireworks
Fishing Girl
Ice Ball
Memory Match
Paint Me
Ultra Air Hockey 2

+1. That game is pretty cool. Kinda like a mobile MechWarriors.
If you like puzzle games, Jigsaw Guru and Word Tangle are pretty good fun.
Alphajax is great if you like Scrabble. I especially love the personal statistics; I've never seen that in a mobile Scrabble game.
iBlast Moki... best port out there. Only game better is ilomilo
Been playing a lot of twin blades, I dig it and bubble birds here lately, just downloaded the new mmo game listed on wpcentral, but haven't tried it yet.
Sent from my HTC HD7 using Board Express
Max and the Magic Marker is a MUST have! It's $6.99 but worth every penny.
Impossible Shoota is also really fun, free of charge, and extremely addicting, too.
Check out Bye Bye Brain, a great zombie tower defense game.
Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
I'd ditch Bye Bye Brain... you can play on Normal mode up to horde 50 and then it will finish
Or you can try the Endless mode and it will CRASH at horde 50.
It looks really good but the gameplay is not that varied... only one map, 5 different character units each with 3 upgrades and that's it.
Good for showing off to people but you will get bored of it crashing all the time at level 50
My fav's are TouchMeQuick (free), The Harvest (6.99), Fruit Ninja (2.99), and Solitaire Game Chest (2.99).
Try Impossible Shoota. Mindless but it is fun.

Ilomilo is awesome, haven't stopped playing it since I bought it, am on the secret eggs bit :O)
Need for Speed: Undercover is very good, as is Flowerz (Yay I'm top of the Leaderboard for that one). Chicks 'n' Vixens was enjoyable if a bit short.
Game Chest: Logic Games contains a version of Chess which you can play against your XBox Live friends online, and it is a lot of fun. I think it is the only online multiplayer games in the Marketplace at the moment but I'm sure others will follow soon.
I've been playing against people who don't even own a WP7 phone - they can play in a browser by visiting Xbox.com - the game requests show up there and an identical silverlight version of the game plays within the browser and best of all, it's free for them :O)
Final Approach... just downloaded it and its loads of fun.

er... I tried Fruit Ninja on my Focus and it was running pretty bad. It's around 15fps -ish when fruit appears.
Not sure if it's MS gamestudio ported it badly or just my individual problem

I use it on Omnia 7, and it is very fluent. It seems that it's your individual problem... Have you tried un- and reinstall?
Hi, could any gaming veteran advice some good positions for playing of various gender? I mean some good 4x strategy like Master of Orion, racing, shooter, survival horror, adventure and at the and some platform.
I am also interested in games like Roguelike RPG (ADOM), Heroes of Might and Magic and any other adjusted from PC to our pocket station .
Thanks

I'm guessing English isn't your first language. The line about "good positions for playing of various gender." Makes absolutely no sense, so it's hard to understand what you are asking. Do you want some good game recommendations?

Yes it is not my first language very good perception, however you guessed very well what I meant (and very good imagination), anyway I've a little complicated the grammar and sorry for that.
Exactly, the question is: what games can you recommend to me. I am interested in all the types.
Thanks a lot once again and forgive me next puzzles if any...

N64oid!! - I know you know what a N64 is And I know you love Super Mario 64
Something newer ?
OK, the games I have installed right now are asphalt 2, cubes free(kinda old school graphics, but lots of fun), gun bros (one of my favorites), heavy gunner, nfs shift, spectral souls (very expensive, but well put together turn based RPG), squible (it was the first game on the market that captured my attention), zenonia 1 and 2 (Zelda style RPG) and also live holdem pro(free live poker game, very addicting)

I think the word you are looking for is "genre", not gender. Genre is a group or category of something, and gender is sex (like male or female).
In any case, Pocket Legends is pretty cool, but the games I limit myself to these days are Angry Birds, Slice It and Wordfeud...all puzzle type games.
-- B
I'm a gamer myself and have literally tried every game available on android. Pocket legends is pretty fun to have for a portable mmorpg. It has some obvious tones similar to world of warcraft. Another fun rpg is crusade of destiny. Its got great graphics and fun gameplay and kept me busy for a couple of weeks. Spectral souls is a well made game for sure but its more one of those strategy rpgs that lacks the ability to fully control the player. It reminds me more of an amped up chess game so it wasn't my taste.
Also if you're running a high end device, which I can assume you are because you're in this forum, I can reccommend any of the gameloft games. They aren't available on the market so you'll need to visit their site. Just google gameloft. They are a little pricey and some of the games can be a little buggy at times but as far as graphis go and playability there is little comparison out there. Games like splinter cell, hawx, modern combat 2, and avatar come in high definition formats and stick pretty close to the full size counterparts.
Other than that you should bury your gaming urges in one of the several well made emulators on the market. A lot of good games from the days past and some fun memories too!
Happy gaming!

Ok guys thanks, so I am starting to test them all
Another game I would highly recommend is Project INF. It's a top down multiplayer shooter. Somewhat addictive once you get into it.
I think someone already mentioned it but GunBros is also a good shooter game.
EA also has a bunch of mainstream titles on Android like Sims 3 and FIFA 10.
I hate to support companies that refuse to support Android by refusing to put their apps on the market but Gameloft really has some of the best Android games. I currently have Modern Combat 2 and for an FPS with 3D graphics running on a phone, it's absolutely stellar! It even has multiplayer. Not sure about the price but I think I got it for $3.99 or $4.99. Just Google "gameloft".

Have you even looked into the reason WHY gameloft games are not on the market? It has nothing to do with them not supporting android.
It has to do with the fact that they have different .apk's for different gpus in different phones, the games are optimized for specific gpu's, that's why they look so good. The market doesn't allow multiple apk's or detect phone gpus so they can't put it up there properly.

When you buy a game from them they require your phone model to give you the right one.

One game that I can heartily recommend is Majesty. Plays pretty much like the PC version. I'm in the same boat as you otherwise, just got a g2, only had a g1 beforehand, in which I ran nesoid and gensoid, nes and genesis emulators.
I did run across some apps about emulating Heroes of Might and Magic 2 and the Baulders Gates/Planscape Torment games...but you need the data files from the games, so either have to own em or....
Search Pelya (the maker) for those. I havn't been able to test them out fully yet, looking for my old discs now >.<

Wow i have both of them original versions ,please tell me how they can be launched on the our little machines and if they are not too slow?
By the way i am still looking forward ADOM and Fallout distribution if it is possible.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yeah I would kill for Fallout, never really got into the BG series. As such I don't own the first one, and after reading more gemRB is only allows bg2 demo, so didn't bother.
Free Heroes 2 on the other hand, works pretty well. Was just playing some Heroes of Might and Magic 2.
Quick run down on what you have to do.
Download Free Heroes 2 on your g2/desire z
Install HoMM2 on your computer, go into the game files, copy the data folder, go into your sd card and put the data folder in "app-data/net.sourceforge.fheroes2"
You will most likely have to make the sourceforge folder.
Now start the game, make sure the "where to download application data" tab is pointed to your sd card, and then go to "downloads" tab, click game data I guess? Then dl midi music and essential map pack, get the additional and mega map pack if you wish, and any of the translations.
Now you should be able to run the game, but will run into the issue i had, crashing after the first turn I imagine
SO, remount your phone to the pc, open up your sourceforge.fheroes2 folder, and look for "fheroes2.cfg"
Open it with notepad, then look for "videomode = 640x480"
Change it to "videomode = 800x480" and save. Now should run with no issues...hopefully. I tested a few turns then attacked a graveyard....suffice to say I died
Took me a little bit of scouring to figure out exactly how to get it to run, and still havn't messed with any of the more indepth tweaks, so if you figure out some that work real well, be sure to pass them along
Well atleast I assume we all enjoy some level of gaming. I've been a huge fan of the developers GameLoft . Most of their Android games aren't on the market for some reason but I've purchased and played their games ( NOVA , Assassins Creed, and GT Racing ) and they are amazing. When ever I try to go searching for more quality games like the ones they make all I get tossed at me are things like Angry Birds and Air Traffic Control. They are fun little games and they are fine but I am searching for more higher quality 3D games.
So know of any?
http://gameloft.com = their site, check it out. Wait for a sale to go on before buying. I got all my games for $5 about a month ago.
NOVA : A SWEET 3D FPS. Straight up, it's like Halo on your Droid which is just pretty freaken awesome especially when you factor in that it has Multiplayer Deathmatch levels. If you kill all the background apps and services before playing your experience should be super smooth and fun.
Assassins Creed : An interesting remake of the game from the console versions. The graphics are of course pretty snazzy and the game play it's self is comfortable. Worth checking out if you like more "Adventure-ish" style games.
GT Racing : Oh... My gawd... Hands down my favorite racing game. Not for the phone but outright FAVORITE racing game. Detail is rediculous, graphics are insane, and the number of cars and races are just like ... daaamn... You gotta check it out.
Huh I thought there would be more interest in this area but I suppose I stand alone lol
Well I am not actually much for games. my game is flashing a new rom every once in a while ... well I did get Majesty from appstore for free the other day. I played only the tut and one adventure but it seems like a pretty good game. it is similar to AOE which I grew up playing alllll the time.
Thanks,
SoBBie
I downloaded that too! Pretty fun. Also not a huge mobile gamer but I might check out some of the games in the OP.

Hi i will have my SGS2 soon and i have brought the mrs a Galaxy ace as its her first smart phone and very cheap indeed.
I was woundering if there any 2 player games that we both can play against eachother from eachothers phones,
I no apples phones have games like this but i really havnt a clue with android as im slightly rusty with it tbh and never really had any freinds with an android device.
I've come across a few and they tend to be turn based games rather than real-time. There's a whole bunch of Scrabble derivatives (Words with friends, wordfeud, wordsmith), a few for chess (chess-presso is the only one I've tried but I know there are others) and one that I particularly like is Pool Break which lets you play pool, snooker, and a couple of other games.
For real-time gaming the only one I know of is Homerun Battle 3D which is quite good fun. I'm sure there are others but that should get you started.

Isn't mini squadron multiplayer? That's a fun little game.
so there is a few then, id concider playing any game against the mrs!
if you like starcraft, try starfront from gameloft, very nice detailed game, and very nice to play against friends (and your mrs if she likes that kind of games.)
Edit: they have multiplayer on most games, so check out their website. I believe they also have some nice racing games etc.
