I think it's weird how this phone comes preloaded with a demo of Nova 2 hd. Which I didn't try and uninstalled, but the game on the market doesn't support our device.
Anyone have any luck getting it to work? Was wantin some cool games.

Yea, played it this morning. Kinda cool. But before you can play, the game had to update or something, like 300 mbs of something.
Nova2 for the i9100 works fine as does gtracing
Nova 2 is preloaded on yours?
Wait, it is only a demo?

Yep, just a demo. Visiting their site through the phone only gives Spiderman and UNO as options. There's a handful of other titles on the Market but none of their really big titles.
Being as the international GSII and the E4GT are basically identical I assumed Gameloft would have more titles listed as compatible at launch (especially Order & Chaos and Black Pegasus). Given their track record that was a bit presumptuous of me.

Normally i use quake3droid at max settings (2048x1024 (i probably got the res wrong) etc) or i use a 3d game such as Guerrilla bob. What do you normally use? What game really shows the power of this phone?
Modern combat is a good one. Lags a bit in the menus but the graphics are absolutely stunning

modern combat or modern combat 2?
modern combat didnt work for me, HD versions anyway
Modern combat 2 I paid for it in the premium game hub...... awesome fps also Nova is another good one
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
any more? maybe graphics apps?
I presume the true power of the gpu will never be had, as from what I read drivers are poxy and have to use chainfire to sit in the middle to run stuff.
Do you think it will ever run true???
I dunno about using "the power of the phone" but Samurai Vengance II looks nice on the SGS2. Dungeon Defenders would be another good choice if it actually worked.
Angry Bots!!!
Try Angry Bots!!
its only a tech demo right now but it looooks super sweet
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.iUnity.angryBots&feature=search_result
Samurai II : Vengeance
N.O.V.A. II
Dungeon Hunter 2
Basically any/most Gameloft games look great!
Zorro: Shadow of Vengeance looks good too.
How are you guys buying nova 2? I have tried the market, Chainfire 3d, and the Gameloft site. None show it available for sale. Am I using Chainfire wrong or something? Not really looking to pirate anything.

Riptide.

Online one correct answer here and phunkycow got it:
Riptide GP
As already stated Gameloft make some nice looking games. My personal faves are:
Galaxy on Fire 2 - Tegra 2 version using Chainfire (sad we need to use Chainfire)
Order & Chaos
Dungeon Defenders
A little off topic - It's pretty sad we so much fragmentation in the Android gaming space with developers signing deals with phone makers/chipsets. Thankfully, we have guys like Chainfire but I can see why Apple mobile gaming may be the future.

Gameloft released a version of Nova 2 which doesn't need Chainfire 3D.
Go to the gameloft site from your mobile - it should be there.

It's not showing on my market, is it region specific or something?
Also can I use it on my phone, not sure if I have tegra or not.
Thanks
edit: Well I don't have tegra in my phone, so can't play riptide, this is a joke. As if Android needs any more fragmentation.....
Managed to do some reading and installed chainfire 3d and the nvidia plugin.
Played riptide and samurai 2, while they are both very different graphical styles I'd have to say samurai looks better in my opinion.
Both lovely looking games though.
my small test is the best graphically looking on android: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1164111

Well I'd say either riptide gp or dungeon defenders.
Nova 2 looks great as well.
Dead Space!!! Chainfire3D/Qualcomm plugin look awesome!!!

Nice piece, although I would consider the Madfinger games in the list, specifically Dead Trigger. Aside from having outstanding graphics and being free, if you have an OTG adapter and plug in a PS3 gamepad, it feels like a transformed game.
In my opinion, this game is the closest to offering a console-style experience so far with a gamepad, as the controls are incredibly tight. Try it with a controller if you are able!

Madfinger game are awesome and will make my follow up. Here's why I didn't add dead trigger. It is fun but pretty mindless game play and we despise games leveraged by in app purchases. The game has no story and the games here I selected for overall depth not necessarily game play alone. I'll add it as a players choice though in my follow up and thanks very much for the feedback

I concur dead trigger is a great game but I compare it to rinse repeat of angry birds. Same stages reprised with no substance and in app purchases. Two no no's when I decided what my 5 favorite were.

Dead trigger gets old real fast, most of the weapons are a waste of time and so are the items and as you say, it's the same stages over and over.

Sadly, I don't like ANY of your choices of games.
You should re-title this to top 5 action/arcade games or something.
I prefer strategy/war games and my current fav is:
Great Big War Game, esp with the multiplayer capability.

You asked for an opinion and I gave one. It wasn't rude yet you replied with a implied insult.
Here is another opinion since you want something different.
James Holmes & Jared Loughner likely played games like that. Look where it got them and all of us.
You should read what action/arcade games are as a genre, the majority of his games are adventure/RPG..
Anyway good thread dude.

The android market desperately needs an adventure / RPG genre. So I think he's right in that for market categories it'd fall under action.
I like glwg too although the latest update made it unplayable on the n7. I might try gbwg. For arcade, I do like spirit xhd.
Plus, in all honesty, I think there needs to be a rating system other than opinions.
Order and chaos, while a fun game, is very slow at the point I'm at and is a little choppy for 1.5ghz and 484 GPU on a 15+ Mbit connection.
It should probably be rated based on gameplay, replay ability, game performance / app design, graphics, etc.

is galaxy on fire a realtime multiplayer? im looking for a game i can play online with other people and continue to play when ever i have free time, like a 3rd person quest sorter game but im not really into elves n wizards n stuff lmao :silly:
Well, it's not exactly an adventure game, but it's 3rd person and it's online, you cab try Shadowgun: Deadzone- it's a shooter game.

Galaxy On Fire is a single player space sim that's only free for a bit. The full game is £7.95. Its well worth it though.

Order and Chaos is fun. Recommended. Very popular.
There are several online multiplayer games where everyone runs around. Deadtrigger is what kids here these days are playing. Better buy a controller though.
There was a real time bowling game posted here somewhere. That was pretty sweet.
Most are shooting games.

Monkey Poop Fling has real time multiplayer, vs your phone, and single player modes. And you get to fling monkey poop!
Crash Drive 2 is real time with other players. Super Stickman (2?) might be too, seems I saw it in there once.

Bowling is cool
But real boxing you have to pay to have skill and it costs 20$and everyone I ever played online has 100% skill. ....what a lame ****ing game. ..
