Has anyone tried the new PS1 emu yet? The word generally is that it is miles ahead of psx4droid, however i dont have a G2/desire z yet. Im looking at getting this phone as my next purchase.
Yes, ofcourse. It is way much better than psx4droid! There is a thread on xda discussing FPse!
trust me its a hell lot better than psx, fpse is so much cooler and it runs a lot smoother than psx

The word would be correct. Just don't confuse savestates with loadstates. That made me lose about 4 hours of FFVII when I was drunk. Its badass though. I went online and found a FFVII savegame and put it on my SD, fpse read it just fine and I was back in business.

Was using it back in my WinMo days, now I'm using it on the DZ and I love it, the hardware keyboard makes all the difference.
Runs nice and smooth (I play without sound, though, personal preference).
FPSE is ok. a lot of the games that work on psx4droid, dont on FPSE, which can get quite annoying.
But the frame rate and the over all smoothness is better on FPSE.
AND if you get sixaxis pair tool from the market, you can play the games with a ps3 controller (FPSE)! The controller doesnt work however on psx4droid.
(Just a little input)

Just a question that came up in rom threads. To get more insight into things. How many of use really use the xperia play for its gaming ability. Meaning, you REALLY want the gamepad used correctly. Some people use just the touch screen more and dont care about the gamepad as much. So just thought I would make a poll for devs to use later to get insight on how people use their xperia.
The gamepad is the only reason I chose this phone over the other Android phones offered by Verizon. And so far, it hasn't let me down. Of course, I'm a retro gamer, I couldn't really care less about the touchpads.
I use it often. At the mo playing Zelda on the Gameboy Advance emulator and loving it
brought to you by the XDA app on my badass Android toy
I use it for every emulator , every game. The gamepad is the sole purpose of buying this phone.
Yea I am all about the emulators myself. However I think the issue comes up on non stock roms with android based games that "optimize for xperia play" and how some roms may not work right on a gamepad. I just know I love the gamepad. Too bad GTA3 isnt working right.
YES... i had been hunting down this phone since i heard rumors of it, 2 years before its release, so i started to save up cash, i waited a while for it to drop price, when i finally had enough money , i got the white one, because everyone here would have the black one, anyways as soon as i got the phone the works, Boot loader on locking, Rooting, Custom Rom, Emulators/ROMS, im an old school gamer, so all the Pokemons, all the Marios, etc etc.
What i loved about the phone is that my younger brother got a Iphone 3gs and he did not wanted to buy the Xperia Play because " it looks so cheap" and to be honest it does, it took him 30 seconds of playing my Play to Regret getting the Iphone 3gs, as like me he is also a hardcore gamer.
So Gaming pad.. hell Freaking yeah... its the only thing i can bark at work,"hey my phone has this much processor","mine has this much screen", etc then i go "well how many of you have gaming buttons?" and i just laugh.
My last two phones I had purchased the GameGripper for both. Bit when I saw the xplay I jumped for it and haven't looked back. Now version where the hell is the info on the ics update?

The gamepad is great for playing fighting games
The gamepad is one mayor thing that brought me to buy the phone.
As I consider myself a hardcore and casually retro gamer.
Many other reasons:
Decent screen size
Incredibly loud stereo speakers
Supports epileptic led mode (32hz/2000bpm)
Autofocus camera
Awesome processor and GPU (overclockeable to 2GHz!!!1!11one)
512 MBs of RAM
Easy rooting and bootloader unlocking
Comes with the best OS in the world
Built-in integration with Facebook
Some drawbacks:
SEMC skin kinda sucks compared to cooler ones
Comes with lots of bloatware
Brightness is NULL in the outsides of a sunny day
Battery does not last more than three days under default settings
SEMC launcher only has 5 homescreen slots
Built-in theme chooser doesn't do much
Front camera only works in outsides and is a 1.3 MP one
But overall, much better phone than any of those I have found people using on the streets (at least in my country).
I mainly use the phone with Onlive. Ever since it got support I've been wasting my money on games my computer can handle, but it's on my phone <3.
Emulators work rather well, it's just say I'm playing Majora's Mask I have to keep the virtual keys on screen for the c-buttons due to lack of mapping.
I just don't use the touchpads

ICS is good but miui is better in my opinion.. I still use the gamepad just don't play any games that use touch pads

I use my Xperia Play only as a gaming device. I don't use it as a phone (no sim card). I got it used super cheap. Onlive, FPse, etc.
Sent from my R800at using XDA App
of course...bought it because of the game pad..i have a lot of time to play games...even at work...
i don't use the touchpad because i haven't game where i need it (only in mupen64 i need them, but i'm not an hardcore player)
Do some of you still use a BT Gamepad on your XP? Was thinking of getting the onlive universal gamepad. Still having a full set of trigger buttons would be nice.
I thougt the game pad was cool but i actully don't use it so much and actully have another android phone.
That's the main reason I got it and it's great for my retro gaming needs. I use emulators mainly and only use the pads when I need to, like with Mupen64.
I can say I'm a little disappointed in the r800x model (stupid Verizon). My parents still pay my phone bill so I can't complain too much.
I'm moving to Canada this summer and I plan on getting one from whatever carrier I end up with (not CDMA though, I'm done with that mess). They are free with most contracts which makes it even tastier.
BTW any recommendations for cell carriers in Canada? PM me
I'm mobile.. and I'm a gamer.. so, I bought Xplay because it's a Gaming Mobile Phone which had "gamepad" on it..
If I don't use the gamepad, I would prefer Arc S or Ray than this..
Hi there.

I used to play a lot games on arcade machines, so first emu i got was mame for android and Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.
Here is a short video of game running. Smooth and so good enjoyable title.
Lately i play GTA III, which is lag free for me on stock rom and Doomlords kernel without overclocking my Experia.
I also have nearly every game for Atari65Xe and just play them occasionally.
Bruce Lee is my fav one.
Ps. I have tried to post links, for a quick overview, but failed due to low post count
Sigh.. ever since yongzh got pulled off the market. More people release theirs. Now I know .emu series was good. However seems more and more are coming up. So really what emulators are you all using? Personally I have not seen a need to replace any of yongzh's work. Then the latest one that works better then fpse, is the epsxe now for playstation.
So anyone here tried multiple ones? Which ones should we stay with? Kinda sucks paying 4$ per emulator and you dont even know how it compares to what was already out there for us.
So do you feel yongzh still has the ideal emulators or do you think anyone replaced him yet. Thanks. =)
I've used yongzh em's since they came out. The only 64 em I use is mupens64plus. They run great on my play. I haven't had the time to compare other ems because im testing aokp atm.

Cept I am reading that on ICS, seems Yongzh lags now? So confusing lately.. stupid google.. remove one dev but let all the others stay.
I use Mupen64plus for N64 and Gameboid for the GBA
When i'll upgrade to ICS i will use N64oid cause of the Touchpad Support
Gesendet von meinem R800i
N64oid work well on ICS?
I don't have a Play yet. (Planning on getting one for emulators) but I have been using the emulators by Robert Broglia on my Nexus 7 and Evo Lte. They aren't free (maybe he has free versions but I'm not sure)but work really well. I liked that he had iControlpad support built in so i no longer needed to use a second app with my icontrolpad and it appears he has Xperia Play support as well. The GBA bios is also built into the GBA emulator which isn't a huge deal but a nice little bonus.
I also have a full set of the oid emulators and a full set of yongzh tiger emulators if I need them as well. I prefer the emulators that Robert Broglia puts out due to them being actively supported.
SNES
NEO.emu
MD.emu
NES.emu
Scummvm
N64oid
FPSE
GemRB
MAME4droid reloaded
cpse
and now , nds4doid and Dsoid
they are AMAZING , #1

Haven't tested it yet. But the Performance should be better than mupen64plus.

Mehdi are you running ICS? Cause that seems to be a well thought out list you just gave us.
Also epsxe has been running so much better then fpse on ICS. I mean like wow solid. =)
Hi there, for a while now I thought the 'oid' series had the best emulators, like N64oid, GBCoid, Genesoid, etc...
I guess I thought they were the best because they were the first I've come across. But after recently browsing the market I've discovered that their are other variations of these already existing emulators, maupen64 & NES.EMU being 2 examples. Through little research I found that the 'oid' series usually have the best game compatibility, but yet while comparing them to similar apps in the store I discovered other emulators include interesting features such as new play, multi touch, and minor things of that nature...Especially PS1 emulators, there's like 3 of them! FPSE, EPSXE, I think PSX4DROID is still around? IDK.
My question (s) to you all is what game emulator do you like the best, and why.
Like maybe list the pros & cons and give your final decision on which you like the best?

hello,
i have been using xperia play for over an year now....i have tried almost all emulator related stuff that is available on market....i used psxperia(and fpse for some games). epsxe: well good graphics OpenGL support but too laggy on GB....psx4droid : too laggy and unplayble, So fpse is best as its new version supports touchpad on GB so u dont really need Psxperia conversion...and if u have ICS and overclocking enabled...it is best option for me..... and for nitendo 64......i have tried mupen64, n64droid and emu.n64....mupen64 supports touchpad that is good for some games but the performance is far behind n64oid....emu.n64 is average, a little lag but less supportability .....So if u have n64oid and you are using ICS 4.0.4 stock by markphyton with custom kernal .....it supports touch pad and is fastest available on market yet........so n64oid is best choice with ICS -nothing better......and talking about other emulators....u can use any since they work almost same ....no big issue!
thankyou and sorry for my bad english
Thanks for the input.
I'm on GB so I guess I'll stick with N64OID & FPSE. I am a little disappointed that N64oid does not support touch pads tho...

For GBA emulation, I was using Gameboid and it was fine, but now I tried MyBoy and I prefer it because it doesn't need a bios file and you can disable linear filtering (so the image is pixelated instead of blurry, which I like better)

Best emulators are Tigers. Especially the tiger mame/arcade.

I even bought neo.emu from the market and its good but tiger plays what neo.emu won't. And all tigers emus are free.

Any news on the Yabause Sega Saturn emulator being ported by the Mupen64 guy?
My XPlay broke in March and its taken me until today to get a new one so Im pretty far behind on whats been happening
I haven't seen an update for that recently... if ever...
