Good list, I also recommend Quake 3 (Kwaak) and NOVA.

Please add Dungeon Hunter under RPG, it rocks

WTF?!!! No Real Football 2010 HD!!! That's an awesome game by Gameloft!
In casual gaming, Falling Ball and Tap Falling Ball is good.
In Strategy Robo Defense is cool.

You froget Cestos from multiplayer! Best ever.

I was under the impression that it wasn't running too well on the i9000?

Thanks for the suggestions, keep em coming.

You're missing the Gameloft games, but they are unfortunately only available through Gameloft's site instead of the Android Market.
There's no denying they have the highest production values and are the best visually however. For reference, Asphalt 5 on Samsung's app store for the Galaxy S is by Gameloft.
I'd suggest:
- NOVA (action, first-person shooter) which looks incredible and runs flawlessly on the Galaxy S
- Let's Golf 2 (sports) which looks equally stunning and runs perfectly.
I've had problems with the follow Gameloft ones however:
- Tom Clancy HAWX (action, shoot-em-up) installs, opens and the intro logos appear but crashes when it gets to the menu
- Dungeon Hunter (action, rpg) installs but does not run

Somebody help me!

Generally that means you need some free space on your memory card, as it says.
I think Gameloft games install their data on the internal memory, so check you have enough. Otherwise it may be due to whichever lagfix or firmware you're using (ext3, etc) locking write capabilities to your card.

Yeah you need available space for those GameLoft games.

Have you tried quake 3? (kwaak3) Amazing speed, its just desktop-experience (except for the controls) But the latest version acually works. Can yuo do this with Desire?

Hero of sparta is great game too and also quake 3 by kwaak3.

How about a MMORPG category
try Pocket Empires

However on this occasion I think it's more to do with the fact that jp2 and jp3 firmwares have inherent issues with writing to the sd card.
At the moment this is only a temporary fix and nothing permanent...I cant run Asphalt5 for this very reason.

Dungeon Defenders: First Wave HD

I downloaded this game a couple day ago and cant stop playing it! It just went free in the market recently and it's playable without multitouch. The graphics and gameplay are unmatched by any other game on android due to Unreal Engine.
The only downfall (I'm not really complaining) is that after the game is installed it downloads 600 megabyes of data to the internal memory for tutorials, levels, etc
Trendy Entertainment has announced a PvP expansion as well.
Now I'm sad that I have to lose my game data to install the latest firmware and market mod

Downloading now.
Looking at the graphics from the screen shots in Market, you should get Pocket Legends. It has similar graphics, its free and it was the first MMO for Android. Cross platform play with iPhone/iTouch also.

Thanks, I'll have to look into that. I noticed an issue with Dungeon Defenders today. I was playing the second level and my attack button stopped working. I don't know if the touchscreen got too warm after two and a half hours of straight gameplay or it it was just locking up on me. It cost me the level

I just downloaded pocket legends but it stays at the connecting to server screen forever. Im on the latest firmware with the market mod

Getting tired of seeing "this app isn't compatible with your device."

If I search demolition inc or dark meadow directly on my phone on the play store, the game will not show up. If I click on the game on the web store, it'll open up the game and say "this app is not compatible with your device."
The games are both tegra 3 games, yet I can't use them on my tegra 3 device. What in the hell?

Got annoyed when i couldn't install it from the phone but it works through the pc

There was a small problem when the game whas submitted, should work now through phone and pc. The dev told me this on twitter:thumbup:
I have to agree most apps & games still aren't optimised/compatible for our powerfull device wich is a big bummer
Sent from my Quad Core Monster the HTC One X using Tapatalk v 2

Not sure if related but some of the apps in the store were down for a while and you couldn't find them and couldn't install them even though they were compatible, but it seems the Admins at Google Play fixed the problem now.

some of these apps are not sold in all countries. I keep getting that on so many, it's a pain in the arse. market enabler should help there though, i suppose..

Guys u Wanna be the first with this powerfull device.
We`ll just have to wait for them to catch up to us...xD

hm...so the apps are free...and you can't find them on the legal way...
well...think there for a second...get the apk somehow...installing locally works fine...well...was that really that hard of a thought?

Demolition Inc is still not supported for one x. Read the description on Google play.

Do you use any apps like Android tuner or Root Control?, (chainfire 3d?)

Not enough RAM, you should try to restart your phone and kill unwanted apps before play.
