Hi,
I have a very silly problem,
I downloaded Fifa 2012 from the Xperia game launcher and Bought it and Found that the Game-pad is not working.
I looked at the settings and there is nothing to change to enable it.
any help would be appreciated
Reboot.

If you mean the d-pad isn't working but other buttons are, then that's how the game is - no d-pad control, only analogue touch-pad works.
Really lazy of the developers not to offer configurable controls.

Or is it possible to use games with the physical keyboard?
Only one that I know of is the quake 3 port for android.
Here http://code.google.com/p/kwaak3/
The dev would have to include that functionality in their game unfortunately, nothing we can do on this end. But, you can play Playstation Games using the FPse emulator on the market, and that lets you map buttons to the physical keyboard.
There's an app coming out (out already maybe?) for jailbroken iOS that maps bluetooth controller input to touch regions on the screen.
Basically it takes input from the controller and passes it as if someone had touched the appropriate control area.
Not sure if something similar is doable within the Android system.
Trying to find where I saw this recently, will provide a link to clarify as soon as I do.
E: BAM!

Something like that would solve the issue in question.
This would be cool for emulators. Sometimes its hard to play games with onscreen buttons on emulators for me at least.

Personally, I've found that the Desire Z keyboard isn't ideal for playing emulated games. Better than touch screen for sure, but not ideal.
Bluez-ime + a wiimote is my preferred choice.
Replica island supports keyboard too, can be found on market.
Ozzy's Odessey is controllable with the hardware keyboard. I found the game very enjoyable

Thought of developing something similar hundred times, but there were problems (can't remember which exactly.. Nice to know that if it has been done, it's possible to do it!
INC by OrangePixel is also playable using the keyboard
Turbofly 3D is great to play with the keyboard!
Greetings ivifly
You can use your physical keyboard with emulators. I use it for my snes.

So far I've found:
Cordy,
Spectral Souls (configurable layout, I assume Generation of Chaos does that too),
Zenonia 4 (weird layout but playable).
other games too
Games like gta 3 can also be controlled through an external keyboard.
Sonic the Hedgehog 1 uses WASD and some odd key for jump (I forget which) on my Desire Z. Not really tried many other as I'm not really a gamer.
I just wondering in forum and found that topic.
Very nice physical keyboard working on all rogue like games , angband etc.
The best experiance with physical keyboard.
I find that the Desire Z keyboard is rather nice for gaming. It's just that the keyboard layout isn't parallel like normal keyboards so using WASD is pretty difficult.

What does that have to do with the statement "It's just that the keyboard layout isn't parallel like normal keyboards"?
I received my Nexus about a week ago, but just yesterday I bought a bunch of those 99 cent Gameloft games, which play nice on the tablet, but if I'm going to be sitting at home playing these, I was wondering how possible it is getting KB/M to work with the touch controls?
I don't have a KB/M for it yet, will probably get the Logitech set at some point, but I was just wondering.
I don't know if you can use a kb and mouse, but you can play games using a ps3 gamepad

I believe the app usb/BT joycenter allows this, I tried to set it up but had difficulty remapping the keyboard buttons. The forums on the developer's site has tutorial I think. Here's the link

Is there an app that can convert the Xperia PLAY into a Bluetooth game pad? I have tried tablet remote and this doesn't quite work. I am looking for something that will make my Xperia's controls mappable on another device in games like dead trigger. This maybe a bit far fetched but I think this would be a cool app to have.

You could always just, well, play Dead Trigger on your Play. It's a bit far-fetched but it just might work
Joking aside, I don't think so :S

I heard BTController can do it, but I don't know if it transfer the hardware buttons as well.
Use BT Controller. The developer created a fix for our circle button too. I use my Play as a controller for emulators being run on my Asus Slider.
Hello everybody! In my first thread I already would like to ask if anyone have experienced similar things on Xperia Play. I have SonyCM 10 Final installed, as well as LuPuS_zeus_jBv13-full and after that I found out that some games that should work properly with my touchpad... well, they don't. I got Metal Slug X and 3 installed, Pocket RPG, N64 and SNES emulator, and they work flawlessly with my touchpad. But I installed games like Chaos Rings and Eternal Legacy and they do not recognize the touchpad. Well, those are Xperia Play optimized games, but I read that they had already problems when playing on android 2.3.3+. So is there anybody that experienced same problems? Or is there a fix of some kind?
Also I applied the O button fix, but the 'keypad-zeus.kl' reverse itself to default values (back instead of button B)... WTH?
And btw - is there any update for the things I have 'onboard'? I included screenshot (it's in Polish, but it's pretty clear) of the things I have.
Ask - if I missed something, I'll gladly answer! ^^

I recently got a play.... I couldn't get the touch pad to work at all in cm7 (shame coz im a fan of cm7)
Im now using gin2jellybean ROM and the touch pads work fine on all the games iv tried
I haven't tried Chaos Rings or Eternal Legacy tho
Still nothing... It's kind of sad that there's no workaround or solution for this problem... I can't play many games because when I press Square or Triangle, the X button is virtually pressed as well...

Have you tried using this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893343
Yeah, and it was a no-go... I'm even thinking of reversing to original android 2.3.4... but is it worth it even? I'd love to have 4.1.2 and play game normally, without lag or multipress issues...
Hi there.
I would like to know if there's any way to use our Xperia Play and its game controls to play on Windows (7 or 8) via Bluetooth (not wifi).
I know this has been asked some time, but I haven't found any good solution.
Nobody knows anything about this? O__o
For Bluetooth, i think you can use DroidMote. Droidmote allows you to connect to a PC through Bluetooth i believe and use it as a mouse, keyboard, or Gamepad. It wasn't very good as a gamepad to me because you cannot press more than one button at a time. If you can settle for a WiFi Gamepad, i really recommend nJoy. nJoy allows you to connect through WiFi if the PC is on the same network and use it as a mouse, keyboard, and Gamepad. This is the best to me because you can press more buttons like a real controller and it is remappable straight away. The only downside to nJoy is that it's not free, but it isn't too expensive and i would definitely say they deserve the money for such a great app.
Ok I finally did it.
It's easy, just get an app that lets you use your mobile as a gamepad via bluetooth using its onscreen controls, then you get Game Keyboard to play on those onscreen controls with the controls of the Xperia Play. And voilá, you will use the Xperia Play as a bluetooth gamepad on Windows.
So I used Ultimate Gamepad + Game Keyboard. Sad that there's no app that supports the Xperia Play touchpad, that + Game Keyboard would be perfect... Isn't there any gamepad app that has obviously the normal game controls (d-pad, action buttons...) but has analog sticks on the onscreen controls?
