Anyone know of any quality RPG games on the Market that run well on our beloved EVO?
Check out Zenonia. It's a pretty awesome RPG. I believe there is a trial version in the market too
Calico chaser is alright. It kind rpgish.

I tried it out but truthfully, it felt a little corny to me. I did like the fact that they cursed a bit but the game took too long to start up imo. I'm extremely impatient with tactical rpgs lol.
Crusade of Destiny, I still have that on my EVO, usually about 13+ hours of gameplay.. lots of time spent leveling up.. try it out.
Man I wish there were refunds, I pretty much buy every decent Xbox live games that comes out and this has all the potential in the world but the controls made me want to shoot myself in the face... It's just bad. Save yourself some heartache and use the 5 dollar bill as toilet paper. That would be money better spent... I can't even use this crap.
That's why there is an option to test all the XBox live games for free before buying

I'm aware, it offers up the easiest levels that don't show you the games real mechanics at all... No thanks... I always get the full games of any decent looking games.
Actually there are really few decent games on WP7.... Except maybe Ilomilo or Harvest...
They are all very boring, with a very basic gameplay.
The best exemples are certainly Fable Golf or The Blob. Graphics are nice, but how boring these games are.... No variations or challenge at all.
I you buy a game without trying it and it's rubbish, you deserve what happens to you, no sympathy there.
As for the game itself, I agree that it's not good and Who wants to be a Millionaire is just as bad.
We were originally supposed to get Angry Birds today and instead we got two piles of crap.
I just tried the demo of Super Monkey and indeed... It's crap.
How poor the graphics are...! How they dare propose this for the WP7 platform?
Regarding the controls, they are just so bad that they make the whole game unusable.
Where are the good/sophisticated games on WP7 ???
most have to be made, not ported
PES is actually a good game, I love corona
and I absolutely love the harvest
but many games are rubbish
I am holding out on sonic 4 being good because I like the game on the wii, but I'd love a metal gear on this thing
Toss us a bone konami

There just aren't enough users to warrant putting the resources into a massive, complex, graphics-intensive game. Plus people aren't willing to pay - the amount of reviews saying that PES2011 is too expensive at £3.99. This, the most fun, addictive and probably longest replay-value game on the market. Should be 12p apparently.
Well I bought it, and I really like it. I find the controls fine, took a bit of playing to get used to it, but it is good fun. I do think a joystick control might make it a bit easier, but its a good game, the graphics arent that bad either... looks like SMB 1 did to me, other than the 2d monkey.

agreed, the mechanics were not smooth at all.
On a side note, I thought I had wasted money on deer hunter, but it works much better after the nodo update.

huh rocket riot, max and the magic marker, fruit ninja, tiki towers, iblast moki are also gr8 games. for a brand new platform WP7 has a decent amount of good games.
the only thing missing are some gr8 exclusives like the Harvest.
I find a lot of the games great but I came from Android not an iPhone. Earthworm Jim, Fruit Ninja, Hexic Rush, iBlast Moki, Ilomilo, Max and the Magic Marker and Tiki Towers are some of my favourites.
I can see the frustration some people might have with things like Fable Coin Golf but these are really designed to be pick up and play games you can play when you're on the go quickly and easily.
Game plays smoothly on my HTC Arrive.
Two reasons why I didn't buy the game:
1. 2D Monkey Balls - I'm sure they could have done 3D without dropping below 30 fps. Simply lazy programming.
2. No mini games. Monkey Flight is the sole reason why I bought the original games.
In case your looking for an excellent game to play on our phones. Battleheart is by far probably best game Ive ever played on a mobile device, (thats my opinion of course) It runs great on our g2's and has beautiful graphics to boot
check it out on the market! its 3 bucks and worth every penny!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.KelliNoda.Battleheart&feature=search_result
thans for advising. indeed im looking for a good game to test my g2 since i just bought it.
Yup, definitely worth it. Been addicted to this game on my ipod touch for a while a now might pick it up for my Desire Z as well
I got an upgrade available to get a play for $50, and I'm wondering how great they are. I've been getting annoyed at the touch screen controls for gaming, and want a controller finally.
However, I'm worried as to how smooth, responsive, and great the graphics are with psx emulators or games like GTA3.
My Atrix is unlocked, rooted, and running CM7.
I saw quadrant scores at ~1700 with xperia play and got worried seeing as I score ~3500 no problem, and with Antutu the Atrix gets much much higher scores than the play especially in 3D and CPU.
Does anyone have experience with both phones and can give me some ideas as to how they perform against eachother?
with the exception of the screen, the play is going to be slightly slower/worse in most respects, mine generally doesnt lag, but it happens on occasion, the tegra2 gpu is not much better than whats in the play, so gaming wise its not far behind the atrix. the browser is ok, but im expecting a big boost to usability on that front when we get ics with hw acceleration. As a phone, the play is pretty good, not amazing, but it gets the job done.
It really comes down to the hw controller, yes, theres plenty of phones out that are better than the play, but if u want to play a game, i would take the play, every time. playing things like sonic cd, or super metroid, mario 64, crash bandicoot, etc etc etc(i have about 6k+ games on my phone, ranging from nes through to n64 and everything in between almost) the play dominates the competition, 99% of those games play and feel as good or better than they originally did to play....and that in itself is amazing, and its not just emulators the games on the market are very often xplay optimized as well, its kinda suprising given the plays relatively small market share just how many are actually optimized for this little unit.
i bought mine for $450 outright with the option of an sgs2 at about $550, maybe 6 months ago, and do not regret the purchase, ive used a few sgs2's and whilst nice, good luck playing a game an enjoying it, im not sure what im gonna do if they dont end up releasing a play 2....

Couldn't have said it better myself
Although I can say that GTA runs fine for me. I'm not sure how it runs on the Atrix, but on the Play it runs pretty much the same as the PS2 version
Upgraded from an unlocked 1.3 OCed Atrix I like my play much better. Most apps are written to work on 600—800 MHZ single cores so basically the second core doesn't do much. And most "tegra exclusive" games have ported to other phones and run 100% smooth (beat GOF2 two months ago)

How did GOF2 perform with the graphics and framerate? Did it look the same?
Also, how good is the responsiveness on websites, flash, streaming YouTube, Netflix, and texting in general?
Also, are you able to use the SD to install apps? That's one big thing I don't like is storage space.
My xperia play is extremely responsive in the internet browser and pretty much any other app that I use. I upgraded from an OG droid like a year ago and the xperia play felt incredibly fast. I just overclocked my xperia play to 1.6ghz now and it's even more fast. PSX emulation's performance is to the point where it feels as if it were made for the xperia play; the games just work flawlessly with the game pad. I have grand theft auto 3 also and it plays really smooth.

Very nice hearing that.
I still need to figure out if there's a way to use my 16gb as card for app storage because I have roughly 10gbs of apps/games on my phone.
I'd use up that 400mb in a second.
Also, can I adjust the PPI or resolution to match that of the Atrix since the screens are the same size?
Is there any video out for gaming on a TV?
Overall, I'm probably going to get it and sell my Atrix, I'm just trying to plan for it since my biggest problem is that memory issue. Going from 16gb internal to 400mb is a rough one for me.

I have like 76 apps and the majority give you the option to put most of the app data on your sd card. i have 182mb internal free space with all these apps, but I did remove all of the stock verizon apps too
I used titanium backup to force move a majority of my apps to the sdcard. Have over 300 apps and still have around 180mb of free space. Have my phone overclocked to 1.2 and it just flies. I am running the Verizon stock Tom minus all the crapware they put on. Great phone, love it. Games like shadowgun, modern combat 3 are all smooth and awesome to play.

the xperia play is a great phone
but i see it as if you have to consider the benefits of a xperia play over another phone then the xperia probably isnt for you. most people will instantly see that the hardware controls are its selling point and buy it for that. to use for emulators mostly.
Just tried out a xperia play today, I'm going to buy one. They got a sale right now that its free with a 2 year contract. It was smooth online and the launcher was awesome. I tried asphalt 6 on it and compared it to my phone in HD, and I couldn't notice the HD difference, but it ran perfect.
Ill be buying it next week and selling my Atrix for $200 so basically I get 2.5 months free

You can use a stock Motorola 16 gb SD on this phone, it comes with an 8. I just swapped them between my Droid and this when I got it. However you're better off buying a Sandisk 32 GB class 4 card if you want the best performance.
There is no video out.
You also cannot adjust the screen resolution unless you root the device.
I find it amazing that a phone with a gamepad doesn't have a video out..

Galaxy on Fire plays pretty well... I'm midway through it, and I've had my share of action with lots of ships and all around shooting and what not, and the Play delivers flawlessly.
Just got my play, the thinner screen is taking some time to get used to.
Right now im bored because im not unlocked yet. Still gotta pay that guy $25 to get it done.

Downloading it now. Once it's installed I will let you guys know how it is.
It's pretty goods, I downloaded it this morning and played quite a lot today.

Yea, there's been talk about Asphalt 8 in the game thread in this subforum since before lunch time(on the east coast). I've been playing it since before 1 o'clock today. Awesome sequel in my opinion! I love it!!

Graphics compared to Real Racing 3?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 4
Don't have real racing, but thus far graphics are great. It plays much on this device than it does on my HTC One.
If I recall correctly, wasn't there some discussion about how this game would be optimized for the N7?
In the game thread, someone said it didn't look good. I was planning to just play it on my Note 2, but it looks great on my N7 FHD, so I haven't even played it in my Note 2 yet. I've installed it on it, I'll try it to compare, but it really does look AWESOME on my N7 FHD!! I actually played for hours earlier! ZERO complaints!!! Well worth more than the .99 price tag!!
SwiftKey'ed from my '13 Nexus 7 FHD using XDA Premium HD
Just downloaded it yesterday. Well worth the .99 price. It was smooth most of the time, although there are a few times when it's glitchy. Also I didn't think the graphics were as "good" as promised. Shadowgun/Dead Trigger on my old Nexus 7 had them much better.
Nice. Worth the 99 cents indeed!
I was looking forward to the release of Asphalt 8 so when I woke up yesterday morning, I checked the app store immediately to see if it was there; sure enough it was! I downloaded it and played it all throughout the day. Overall, it is a great improvement over Asphalt 7, but I am still just not fond of the menu system. I actually kind of prefer the simplicity of the menus from A7.
Graphically, a good amount of improvement and the nice thing is you can adjust the graphical settings. I like that games have been providing this option. As far as the graphics compared to Real Racing 3, I think they are on equal grounds. RR3 is a more realistic-looking game with overall bland racing environments and some really bad aliasing, but A8 uses real cars in a more arcade, vivid environment and it doesn't have nearly as bad of aliasing. One aspect that I am not quite as pleased on is the framerate. It's just not as fluid as Asphalt 7 on the N7 FHD. Of course, this is likely due to the increase in graphical improvements made and that I am playing on the high graphics setting, but that's partially why we got this game right? I think they'll further optimize the game so this will be less of an issue. I have run this both on my HTC One and my N7 FHD and it runs better on the N7.
Still, I am have a blast playing it and, despite the couple of quibbles I mentioned, the game is better the its predecessor.
This game is great, online is great too.
Bought the game today. It runs really smooth and it looks really great on the n7. Gameloft did really well on this game. I'm enjoying every second of it. And for only €0.89 it was well worth the price. Haven't tried online yet though.
I definitely recommend the game. You won't regret it!

Ive had fun playing games on devices such as riptide gp 2 but this is the first time ive played a game and was literally smiling, yelling at my screen the entire time. Gameplay is amazing, music works extremely well, graphics are impressive. Not a single complaint. Well worth the 99 cents i paid for it
