ive just read on engadget about lg optimus 3d
wondering what os will be running on this beast i thought if wp7 may be the one.
i bet with some quick improovements wp7 os will look awesome in real 3d
what do you think?
does wp7 have a 3D future ?
No, and do we need it on any phone? No. Its a gimmick that wont catch on.
The new DS has it, and apparently no one cares.
Unless i'm mistaken the Optimus line is Android. But you are right WP7 would be the best looking 3d os ever as icons on a grid is all very 2d and i think the display would be wasted.

I would care unless it looked wish washy like some 3d movies do and just strain the eyes. This is why WP7 would be great in 3d, its simple bold design and transitions would look great.

That still hasn't answered the fundamental question: Who actually thinks 3D is anything other than a gimmick on phones?
In fact, things tend to look less real in 3D don't you think? And on a 4inch screen, you'll simply be wondering what the hell is going on down there.
3D is an abomination that needs to go.

Isnt almost everything a gimmick on a phone these days ie album art on music, bounce back effects on menus, nice transitions between screen etc but without this stuff what are you left with? Something that works but will bore you to death. Yes 3d is not needed its over the top slightly stupid and a waste of anyones time, but, wouldn't it be pretty kewl lol.
yea its not like this 3D is like hologram ala star trek which comes out of the screen, but its a start.
since i never had a nintendo 3ds in my hands i cant judge it. but ive followed it since it became first announced, glass free 3D was the next step and im very curious how good it works.
shutter glass 3D is pretty awesome with animated movies.
gimick only!?, well ... they will be plenty of games using 3D
not sure if ull watch lots of 3D movies.
and im not sure how good taken 3D pictures look, but i imagen it kinda nice.
and also talking about gimicks, is the rentina display is not nearly as awesome as a glass free 3D screen!?
next step after 3D will be "beamer" "hologramm" like displays, heh maybe stuff like you see in the game dead space....
dreams come true if you just work hard enough....
you do know prolonged viewing of 3D is not great for your eyes even nintendo has a warning that you shouldnt be playing it for long terms.

Let's think about Star Trek later. WP7 is a long way back in the past and has to catch up with the present first.
Even when it comes to gaming, there is no standard controller for WP7. Navigate a 3D area by smudging your hands over the screen? First things first.
Mmm is that not an issue faced across all platforms? lol

i see your point, but always remember wp7 is new.
true its lacking some features, but its mostly its only software.
it just hasnt been programmed yet.
i think the first iphone was much worse then the wp7 fundament.
we got most of the basic stuff covered..
now its slowly about getting it better and better.
as long as the hardware can keep up, i think we will be fine.
i just hope they wont stop support it in later revisions
like apple does with their phones.
and i dont see much of a problem with navigating 3D space
while its not the best idea to touch the phone to navigate on the 3d display i belive, there are plenty of control shemes in future:
mind controll - thought2text & thought2navigate
maybe a little far, but not as far as you might think.
kinect gesture based input - already used in many homes, why not on your phone. 2 front cameras and lets have fun.. maybe kinda weird but hey, sign language with your phone.
2nd touch screen - maybe on the back.
hardware buttons - meh, but should work (bluetooth controlled hardware buttons, more nice)
but maybe it wont be 3d screen.
i almost forgot about crystal clear flexible screen... damn i love the future..
lets see:
Nokia Morph - running WP7 in 3D with included kinect.
but hey, first things first, let me jump onto another cloud....
Oh, PLEASE give me a phone that can make me sick and give me a headache! That would be awesome!

lol how do they cause headaches and illness
just a little kiddin, but to tell the truth, nobody really knows what all these frequences do to humans. cancer and ****, headaches only the smallest problems.
but i can imagen 3D will hurt eyes after some time and because of that you might get headaches...
guess I have to be the one to say what everyone's thinking, the only reason you want 3D is for pron, erm I mean "internet research"

Actually, lots of people care. I played it at E3 last year and it had the biggest line going--even bigger than the Kinect. The screen is gorgeous and the 3D works strikingly well. Anticipation for the device is already pretty huge.
That said, I agree with you that 3D, generally, is just a gimmick that's failing. I have no doubt that's the reason why 3DS has a slider with the ability to completely disable the 3D feature--just in case . 3DTV's--even glasses free models--are failing as fast as the industry can make them. It's pretty clear by now that audiences just plain don't give a **** about 3D.
Hey guys I've searched with no luck, but I'm looking for a game that is 2 player but not on same device. For instance both my wife and I have android phones I was looking for something that could react if both phones are connected to it to play. Like maybe ping pong or puzzle game? Sorry if its not clear can't figure out how to explain it any better.

try looking up Gameloft games.. I just downloaded Modern Combat 2.. and it has multiplayer option that you can open a free account for and play diffrent games online or thru wifi.. and they have a bunch of games to pick from as well..
Word fuedand connect 4 are both multiplayer.
Wordfued man, great game, similar to scrabble. There are several cestos is another good one.
What the Doodle is an amazingly addicting game, and you can play with two players if you both join the same game.

like others said, pick up WordFued. There's a free version that is ad supported and a pay for version that's ad free and like $3.50 (I got a few days ago for $1.50 on the market).
It's scrabble but the board is a little different in the standard game. Also an option to randomize the board but from experience I high suggest against it. Making 300+ point words is overkill and can ruin the game in a turn.
There are other multiplayer games out there as well such as connect4. I've seen a battleship remake that was multiplayer with friends.
all great ideas, not sure though of what im looking for , lets say your playing ping pong and not really through multiplayer like you would on normal games, but between 2 phones , one person has a paddle and the other person the other paddle you swing your paddle and hit the ball and it leaves yoru screen and goes to the other phone.
Does that make sense if not then i have no other way of figuring out how to say it lol
I know what your saying, I've never seen anything similar.
try android.market.com its easier to search through than it is on the phone. Google it as well.
I hear that Words with Friends and Tap Tap Revenge are coming to android sometime in the spring. Those I am positive will have 2 player.

Hey! Im new to posting on a forum, usually I can find what im looking for. I guess for this one I will have to ask. I have my Xbox Live profile saved on my micro SD card and it works great when i plug the micro SD in to a card reader and then in to the Xbox. But when i plug the sd into my phone and connect the phone to the xbox with a micro USB cable it doesnt show up at all. Any Ideas??? it would be convienent to be able to use my phone for the profile as i have a 32gb micro sd and i always have my phone!
Just download the app Xbox live statistics. You won't need your SD card for it.
I took a look at the app you suggested and correct me if I am wrong, but it looked like it was just to read up on your profile. I want to be able to take my gaming profile with me so I can sign in to my xbox live in more than one place ( obviously not simultaniously) without having to recover my gamertag to each xbox I go to... People do it with flash drives or hard drives.

This may be a silly question, but when you plugged the phone into the Xbox via USB, did you remember to put the phone in "disk drive" mode?
A lot of times it is the silly things I forget
Ya i am mounting it in disk drive mode. its just really weird because it allows me to do it with a usb sd card reader with the same card. and the cable works with my phone on my computer....

Make sure you have your profile on the root of your SD card. If not that is why it is not reading it
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
ya it was on the root of the card. Xbox makes a sort of partition on the card, and android can see it but i dont know if that is the problem...
Sorry but this can't be done (after the last update). Ill tell you why; Xbox allows flash drive support and it has to wipe the drive and make it to a format that's only readable by xboxes (or computer software). I've tried this multiple times, plus you'd have to wipe your phone every single time. Also Xbox sees our phones as media devices and not for storage. If you can trick your Xbox to think your phone is a flash drive only and not be able to store stuff on your sdcard have fun. Best thing to do is buy a cheap thumb drive; Walmart sells a 2gb for 8 bucks. Android won't read the Xbox format which makes this kind of impossible lol

2gb flash drive for $8. PS3's online community is horrible. Not to mention those hackers backing geohotz have been launching ddos attacks on PS3 servers to get back at Sony. Good luck with that.

Launching DDOS attacks Google it and see if you feel safe . There's tons of stories about this accros the web. These guys are really mad at Sony for suing Geohotz(iPhone, PS3 jailbreaker) so they are constantly hacking Sony's online network.

I feel fine. So a group of Geo fans wanna shut down the PSN sporadically.. nothing really for me to "not feel safe".
I recently had surgery so I have been playing Black Ops virtually non-stop without any issues.
Sony is far from perfect, but I think they'll survive these "attacks".
I can google xbox hackers and find many scary articles as well. It's out there, regardless of the console.

Its not a just "group" its well known activst group dude not fans who are notorious for hacking hardcore **** and stealing personal info etc.Its funny you say you think they'll be fine when a 18 year old kid hacked and bypassed their entire security to allow jailbreaking and read/write access (now suing him lol) Anyways, black ops has gotten very boring lately. Maybe its cause I've hit the final presige maxed out; call of duty games get old so fast.

You say an 18 year old kid like that matters.. Geo is very good at what he does. There is a reason why people have tried and tried to hack the ps3 and failed until he done it.
That "activist group" has done nothing to the PSN aside from interrupting it momentarily. Sony has since hired some more serious people to defend against it, and it is obviously working. You can google that too =p
The xbox can be hacked as well, google it~
And yes Black Ops is getting kinda boring.. but new maps coming in May for you guys, June for us >=(. That is a feather in the hat of the xbox tho~
I use both, I notice little difference in them honestly.

Glad you went online and did some reading; but yeah new maps only extend play about another month. Cod just needs to quit being lazy and stop recycling the same engine over and over. Hey here's an idea lets use the same engine(for past 4 games) and give these idiots new maps and guns and milk it for what its worth. I'm not investing anymore money into that company screw maps. I'm ready for battlefield 3 and gears of war 3(something that always make Xbox better than ps3).

I do agree to a point. I like the COD playstyle, but, I do want something fresh.

This is just my opinion, some may not agree, but.. CoD may not be the best possible, but it's the best we got. Hopefully they can get creative by the time MW3 hits in November. Not gonna hold my breath tho hah

Definitely agree, cod has set the bar and all these cod killers just leave us to go back to cod. I'm a die hard cod fan but they have to get creative man. Every year a new game comes out it gets very old fast like Madden. I think this year battlefield 3 is honestly going to shut cod down. Im a huge gears fan so of course ill have that as well but that's 3rd person. If cod doesn't get its act together I feel like the name will vanish.

Possibly. Madden hasn't vanished tho.. which is sad. Although, one reason why Madden hasn't vanished is because it bought the NFL exclusive which is a crock of *bleep*. I was actually enjoying (NFL 2K5 I think?) before that happened.
So, it's possible that CoD could die off because they have no exclusive. They are still selling like crazy tho which really doesn't motivate them to change anything, and honestly.. it doesn't need a full makeover, just freshened up.
I think once they get to a point, there just really isn't much they can do. Like in Madden, what can they really do to make it different from what it is?
I kinda think these other companies need to really step it up and create some good FPS games so I can rotate them. That way when I want something different, I can just slap in another game that's equally as good but with a totally different playstyle.
Hopefully you're right about BF3, but I was seriously disappointed in Bad Company 2 so I may be scorned.

Drift Mania Championship
LINK:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004VMKFMG?ie=UTF8&ref=mas_faad
If you've ever experienced that moment when your tires lose their grip and you begin to spin out, you know just how terrifying that can be. In Drift Mania Championship, that's actually the object of the game. Your head and your tires will both be spinning when you take on this exciting game for Android.
Drift Away:
The key to Drift Mania Championship is a combination of pushing the limits while maintaining control. Drifting is the act of maneuvering a vehicle around corners at speeds and angles that exceed the vehicle's grip--a kind of controlled slide. But go too fast and your slide becomes Wipeout City.
Stay on Track
Five twisting and turning tracks included
Drive one of seven different stylin' cars and select from five challenging tracks. Start out in Practice mode until you get the hang of it, then switch to Drift mode for the serious action.
Points are awarded based on four main criteria: Line, Angle, Speed, and Impact. Line involves drifting within pre-designated zones. The line is marked by several clipping zones, where the closer you get, the more points you score. With Angle, the goal is to get your car as sideways as possible without crashing.
Of course, you will always have a need for Speed. Try to drift as fast as possible, but be careful--hit a wall or fly off the track and you'll lose your current combo score. If you complete the race within a set amount of time, the game awards extra points. You'll also get bonuses based on your overall Impact: entertaining the crowd and delivering an exciting performance. Make the fans cheer and treat them to the sweet smell of burning rubber.
Race in 3D:
Drift Mania Championship features stunning 3D graphics for a realistic racing experience. The app takes advantage of the multi-touch capabilities of your Android device, which means you'll have to rack up the miles while getting a feel for the controls and interface. You can adjust your steering sensitivity, use three different camera configurations, and even replay your best combos.
Challenge friends to match your performance by submitting your best scores to the global leaderboards for each track. The top 100 positions are displayed on the official Drift Mania website.
Note: This game is not compatible with Samsung devices using Android 2.1. Upgrade to 2.2 or try the Lite version of the app.
I got it today... shows it's $14.99.
Polaris works great too and it comes with the phone.

Kyhassen I would like to thank you for bringing this information to the sg2 forum. I have only used amazon app store to download better keyboard so I never go on it so I wouldn't have seen the free paid apps! I tried out the office app today and am blown away! When I first started using android on my erris I thought it was just a fun toy. Then I got a evo on sprint and found it a usefull daily tool using the calander and note pad ect. But always used my computer alot. Now with this app and and others growing so fast and being so compatible with windows OS my phones become a must in day to day living. I gave up my lap top now because this phone pretty much does it all from a word/power point/spread sheet/music/video edit/calander and much more. I use my $2,000 once in a blue moon. Mainly to incert pics on xda since my phone can't. God Bless Google! Fyi I hit my thanks button on your profile till it ran out just now kyhassen. Mahalo!

You can purchase the apps for free but choose not to install them. You will still have the option of installing them later but will still get them free. There's not much reason to use titanium backup for this purpose, your Amazon account remembers that you own the app(s) and you can install/reinstall them at will.

Pig Blaster somewhat reminds me of Zuma. i wasnt too fond of the game, so im gonna pass on this one.
I got the amazon appstore the day it came out. And have EVERY SINGLE free app of the day, so 150+ apps for free (that are originally paid for). Most apps are alright, but i love it when they have some really good apps for free, those come in handy. I dont like that they have games as app of the day 95% of the time. Overall, its an app to have, i have it on my home screen so i never forget to take 10 seconds and grab the free app of the day. (No, i dont have all the apps of the day installed, as posted above, once you get the app once, u can login to ur amazon account on the appstore FROM ANY PHONE and install w.e. app u like).

The line is marked by several clipping zones, where the closer you get, the more points you score. With Angle, the goal is to get your car as sideways as possible without crashing.
Of course, you will always have a need for Speed. Try to drift as fast as possible, but be careful--hit a wall or fly off the track and you'll lose your current combo score. If you complete the race within a set amount of time, the game awards extra points. You'll also get bonuses based on your overall Impact: entertaining the crowd and delivering an exciting performance. Make the fans cheer and treat them to the sweet smell of burning rubber.
Race in 3D:
Drift Mania Championship features stunning 3D graphics for a realistic racing experience. The app takes advantage of the multi-touch capabilities of your Android device, which means you'll have to rack up the miles while getting a feel for the controls and interface. You can adjust your steering sensitivity, use three different camera configurations, and even replay your best combos.
Challenge friends to match your performance by submitting your best scores to the global leaderboards for each track. The top 100 positions are displayed on the official Drift Mania website.
Note: This game is not compatible with Samsung devices using Android 2.1. Upgrade to 2.2 or try the Lite version of the app.

Great game, hard to turn as it turns very sharp. havnt play it much but a decent racing drift game.
I've been playing GBA RPGs for a while on this phone and am looking for some good Android-native RPGs. I was looking at the Final Fantasy ones but I am not paying $7-16 for games I already have on my DS. Any suggestions? Free preferable. I already have Battleheart.
The Zenioa series might be a good one for you

Lol, I know how to search RPG on Google Play. I obviously want people's opinions on what they like to play. Why does EVERYTHING on this forum have to be Google it or search the play store.

LOL I know! Seems like its everyone deems someone that asks a noob or lazy...
I've been looking for this too! Tried Zenonia, its kool but the 3rd and 4th are pay to play, in game unlockable for cash :/ why is it becoming a tendency?
One thing I've been searching is for a good tactical RPG like Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy Tactics, the closest thing I've found is Spectral Souls and it's $14.99 Reason I haven't bought it yet, thanks to the new 15min limit rebate, I won't know if it's really that good to keep or if I don't run into problems during the download of the extra 1.5GB of data
A good hack/slash RPG is Caligo Chaser, it's $2.99 but worth it. Good controls and decent continuous story line, played it non stop for days.
Another one is Across Age DX, it's a free trial and unlock once you finish the intro phase. The developers compare it to Zelda, but for me it's more like Wild Arms 1 gameplay. They are very similar, tools and co-op with party members. The story seems good so far and the dialog is well put together too. Haven't unlocked it yet, but I will once I clear out some minor debt...
How's Battleheart working for you? Just saw the vid and it seems really good, somewhat a rip off the old FF jobs though :/ Noticed what seemed like Paladin, monk, white mage, dark mage, etc -___-
Edit - I haven't installed any EMUs yet due to onscreen controls being uncomfortable for me, huge hands... I'm considering getting the PS3 control adapter for the phone and use that. forgot what it was and didn't bookmark the site *facepalm*
Kemco makes several that are pretty cheap ($3~4 last I checked). Eve of Genesis and Symphony of Eternity just to name two of them. Gamevil makes one or two. I have Illusia from them. Also downloaded Inotia3 (which is free) a couple of days ago, but I really haven't touched any of them with the exception of Symphony of Eternity.
Like you I've eyed the Final Fantasy games, but I'm not paying that much. Spectral Souls has been on my list too, but again... Not paying $15 for it.
Problem with the free ones is that they're free to play, but to get anything worth getting you have to pay for it... as you know from Zenonia.

The problem with the 15 min is you can't really judge an RPG in 15 min!!! It takes way longer, especially if they have intros/tutorials.
I haven't played Battleheart in a while but I like it......didn't really have a story though. Maybe I did and missed it.
As far as EMUs I haven't been able to gague my phone's battery life at all because I spend almost an hour a day playing Pokemon LeafGreen lmao. My coworkers think I'm nuts now. I paid the $4.99 for VGBA and I have to say it was worth every dime. Especially since I figured out how to transfer my files to the PC and trade with other EMU saves......after I finish up with Pokemon I'm probably going to play Golden Sun which I never got around to but heard is great.

That's why I've stayed away from buying a few...
Never was into Pokemon... Now Golden Sun for GBA, that I played (during my breaks from my old job lol) and still have both cartridges Golden Sun and Golden Sun Lost Age. The game has an awesome storyline and plot, the battle system is good and the Dijnns (summons) are a nice.

I'm just going to get a flash cart for my DS. Is only $20. I was thinking about buying a PSP too but I'm stick with my DS. If you can pick up a DS Lite for cheap (40-60) and a flash cart for $20 that might be a good investment......
Also, I haven't checked out any of the games suggested but am going to do that this weekend.

I've been considering the DS and flash cart, it's dead cheap. But my better half is most likely going to get the 3DS and it can use the flash card too, but not for 3D games, yet that is.
Was goin for the psp cause of some of the RPGs and FF tactics, though there's the DS one... Idk, now you got me undecided lmao
Check out http://buy.thegameklip.com it an adapter that attaches your PS3 controler to the phone.

I'd get the SuperCard DSTWO for the 3DS. It's like $40 depending on where you get it from. There are cheaper ones but from what I know this is the only one that is constantly working as the 3DS firmware upgrades come in.
AND get the PSP lol. The PSP is worth it just for being able to play Final Fantasy 7-9 in my opinion.

Thanks, I'll have that in mind for when they get the 3DS.
As for me, spoke with a friend and he might be able to build a PSP from parts he has lying around, he repair them on the side. I settled on the psp

Lucky you. I had a PSP a while ago that I had modded but I wound up selling it because I didn't really use it at the time. I wish I had kept it. From looking on EBay/Craigslist I think people are wayyyy overpricing their 3000's.
you don't really need an adapter to use ps3 or wii controllers. They both use Bluetooth and their are neat apps for connecting them, remapping buttons ect....

Good one! Haven't played the wii version yet, need to finish a RPG first.
This kinda derailed a bit lol originally the op was looking for Android games...
@gpgorbosjr how has your search come along, were you able to try out the suggestions?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
ETERNITY WARRIORS 2!!! it's the best damn game. It's a little unstable and has some lag but it's awesome... multiplayer menu lag is horrible. It just me who has fps drop randomly for a sec and have unresponsive game buttons in menus?
