Hay all,
I'm quite new too the Touch HD but I had a go at making some front screen wallpapers. One is Gears of War the other is Afro Samurai.
I know the blood splats the same on each one but it worked best for both. Not the best done but Im learning.
I've aligned these so the main imaegs dont affect the clock an texted under it.
Enjoy & comments welcome.
Thank you.
The Afro Samurai wallpaper is EXTREMELY stylish and fits the Touch HD perfectly.
Only way I think it could be improved is if we could fix the hi-res background picture problems once and for all.
Cheers bud - yeah I know what you mean such a shame
I only ask because of the I/O conference boasting of it, and the fact that the iPad 2 just got an app for it. If they had it running on a Xoom, can't we do it with the EVO? Here's the article prompting my question.

So no dice then? I know this has to be interesting enough to entice some Dev out there. Teamwin? Cm? God?

Probably not
I wouldn't think so just because the 3d screen is higher resolution than the evolution...

FYI it's not actually 3D in the same way that the evo 3D's or the 3DS's screen is. It's a 2D screen, it just uses the front camera to track your face and renders the image on the display accordingly. Basically a glorified wiimote, it is not a stereoscopic display.
That said, it could definitely be done on the evo, the only issues I could see would be ones of having enough horsepower to do that sort of image processing and analysis and then rendering graphics at a decent framerate.
Right, but the only difference is that the processor on the EVO 4G is single core as opposed to dual. Both are 1GHZ. The only application that I would really want it for are movies anyways. What else would you guys use it for?

I played with a 3DS at Best Buy and was very unimpressed with the 3D. It looked 3D INSIDE the screen but nothing appeared to project out in 3D. If that's how it's supposed to be I'm unimpressed. Maybe the "3D" wasn't turned on, but it did have a 3D effect like those cards you rotate to make a moving 3D-like image.
The 3DS is not actually 3D. It uses the camera to produce augmented reality(AR), basically objects pasted over the live camera image. There are AR apps available for most phones now.
It would be possible to produce the same effect as the idevice app on the EVO, but it will not be like the EVO 3D. Give devs some time!
I wasn't expecting it to be like the evo 3D. I, like most of you just would like to see where the capabilities end with the EVO.

That's not actually true, the 3DS is an actual autostereoscopic display, see here for information on how that works: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereoscopy
For it to work though, you need a special type of screen with a parallax barrier in it.
The app demonstrated in the OP's article would do literally nothing for movies.
Why wouldn't it do anything for movies?

Because it's no different from watching a movie on your computer screen. It's not a 3D display.
The "3D" is created by a 3D engine, like the one that video games use. It's 3D, but it's not stereoscopic 3D. Let's say that you were playing Call of Duty, or any other FPS shooter. It's playing in a 3D engine, but it's not actually stereoscopic 3D when you play it on your normal computer monitor or your normal TV.
In order to have stereoscopic 3D, you need to either have special glasses or a special screen. The ipad and 90% of most portable devices don't have screens that are stereoscopic-capable.
lol, most posters in this thread know jack **** about 3D.
What jesus dude said.
You could create apps that "produce" 3D graphics, but it takes a lot of computing horsepower to make something appear 3D on a 2D screen. I took a class on 3D graphics on computers back in the day. Trust me, it's not worth the dev time for a phone that's going to begin it's golden years in the very near future.
Hey that was the whole reason for this thread: to ask the question.

Which is better
Pb and j rocks, much better than baloney.
All kidding aside post some links or maybe tell us what YOU think of these games.
I'd call Crusade of Destiny a poor man's Baldur's Gate... but a poor man could've just got Planescape:Torment for $5 and been much better off.
...by all means, Crusade of Destiny is a very ghetto and poorly put together form of being an open-world adventure. However, it's raw simplicity made it somehow fun... but unless you're extremely masochistic, that fun will die out when you get punched in the jaw (five times) by forced grind-festing.
Earth and Legend *looks* better... but it's pretty much the same case. Except now you have this mega memory hog that thinks it's worth hogging 48-60MB of your phone storage for itself... and it doesn't even work with the Xperia PLAY touchpads like Dvide said they would.
hey guys..just wanted to share a guy that really has got me hooked and i must say it is worth every penny of it's price. i am one who really does not play games on my phone but this has me how can i say i just can not get enough of it..anyways..Link below

Well worth the money for the playability alone. The graphics and gameplay have an intentional retro feel and is reminiscent of classic Football Manager games on the Amiga or even as far back as the ZX Spectrum.
