[Q] Itunes apps for Archos?

Hi Everyone!
Any possibility of getting apps from the iTunes store onto the archos? Tried searching here, but didn't find any suggestions....
Thanks!

I doubt you'll get ios apps running in android anytime soon.

Nope, you cant fix that
You should download the Galaxy Tab Versions for these games, they'll work

ok thx

i´m sad now ^^

Yup I noticed the same thing when I moved my games from my Archos 70 to my archos 101, damn it!

No, you literally get the game working on only a quarter of the screen, the rest of the screen is black, and the controls are all out of whack!

I like how you want devs to work on things for this device, but you openly say that you STEAL apps. Why would anyone want to develop anything that you might use, they know they'll get it stolen.

In his defense, there is so much inconsistency in apps for android that sometimes you kinda do this in order not to spend money on a game and not have it work, I would gladly pay three times what they are charging if I was certain they would work. Ipad definitely has it beat in that department.

How the hell do you get these to work on the A101. I've tried the Galaxy Tab versions, the HD versions, etc. I can't get any to work.

Any good RPG's?

I've been playing GBA RPGs for a while on this phone and am looking for some good Android-native RPGs. I was looking at the Final Fantasy ones but I am not paying $7-16 for games I already have on my DS. Any suggestions? Free preferable. I already have Battleheart.

The Zenioa series might be a good one for you

LOL I know! Seems like its everyone deems someone that asks a noob or lazy...
I've been looking for this too! Tried Zenonia, its kool but the 3rd and 4th are pay to play, in game unlockable for cash :/ why is it becoming a tendency?
One thing I've been searching is for a good tactical RPG like Ogre Battle or Final Fantasy Tactics, the closest thing I've found is Spectral Souls and it's $14.99 Reason I haven't bought it yet, thanks to the new 15min limit rebate, I won't know if it's really that good to keep or if I don't run into problems during the download of the extra 1.5GB of data
A good hack/slash RPG is Caligo Chaser, it's $2.99 but worth it. Good controls and decent continuous story line, played it non stop for days.
Another one is Across Age DX, it's a free trial and unlock once you finish the intro phase. The developers compare it to Zelda, but for me it's more like Wild Arms 1 gameplay. They are very similar, tools and co-op with party members. The story seems good so far and the dialog is well put together too. Haven't unlocked it yet, but I will once I clear out some minor debt...
How's Battleheart working for you? Just saw the vid and it seems really good, somewhat a rip off the old FF jobs though :/ Noticed what seemed like Paladin, monk, white mage, dark mage, etc -___-
Edit - I haven't installed any EMUs yet due to onscreen controls being uncomfortable for me, huge hands... I'm considering getting the PS3 control adapter for the phone and use that. forgot what it was and didn't bookmark the site *facepalm*

Kemco makes several that are pretty cheap ($3~4 last I checked). Eve of Genesis and Symphony of Eternity just to name two of them. Gamevil makes one or two. I have Illusia from them. Also downloaded Inotia3 (which is free) a couple of days ago, but I really haven't touched any of them with the exception of Symphony of Eternity.
Like you I've eyed the Final Fantasy games, but I'm not paying that much. Spectral Souls has been on my list too, but again... Not paying $15 for it.
Problem with the free ones is that they're free to play, but to get anything worth getting you have to pay for it... as you know from Zenonia.

The problem with the 15 min is you can't really judge an RPG in 15 min!!! It takes way longer, especially if they have intros/tutorials.
I haven't played Battleheart in a while but I like it......didn't really have a story though. Maybe I did and missed it.
As far as EMUs I haven't been able to gague my phone's battery life at all because I spend almost an hour a day playing Pokemon LeafGreen lmao. My coworkers think I'm nuts now. I paid the $4.99 for VGBA and I have to say it was worth every dime. Especially since I figured out how to transfer my files to the PC and trade with other EMU saves......after I finish up with Pokemon I'm probably going to play Golden Sun which I never got around to but heard is great.

Never was into Pokemon... Now Golden Sun for GBA, that I played (during my breaks from my old job lol) and still have both cartridges Golden Sun and Golden Sun Lost Age. The game has an awesome storyline and plot, the battle system is good and the Dijnns (summons) are a nice.

I'm just going to get a flash cart for my DS. Is only $20. I was thinking about buying a PSP too but I'm stick with my DS. If you can pick up a DS Lite for cheap (40-60) and a flash cart for $20 that might be a good investment......
Also, I haven't checked out any of the games suggested but am going to do that this weekend.

I've been considering the DS and flash cart, it's dead cheap. But my better half is most likely going to get the 3DS and it can use the flash card too, but not for 3D games, yet that is.
Was goin for the psp cause of some of the RPGs and FF tactics, though there's the DS one... Idk, now you got me undecided lmao

I'd get the SuperCard DSTWO for the 3DS. It's like $40 depending on where you get it from. There are cheaper ones but from what I know this is the only one that is constantly working as the 3DS firmware upgrades come in.
AND get the PSP lol. The PSP is worth it just for being able to play Final Fantasy 7-9 in my opinion.

Lucky you. I had a PSP a while ago that I had modded but I wound up selling it because I didn't really use it at the time. I wish I had kept it. From looking on EBay/Craigslist I think people are wayyyy overpricing their 3000's.

you don't really need an adapter to use ps3 or wii controllers. They both use Bluetooth and their are neat apps for connecting them, remapping buttons ect....

I don't think so... instruction set is different plus then you have the hardware that the game is expecting... maybe console games via emulator.

not possible. Different OSs, and thus different engines. If ported or some kind of streaming to the phone from the PC, maybe.
Of course he was trying to sell you a phone. Unfortunately, the sales person was just an idiot. I would assume that person falls for every chain letter, email, and post.
To be nice, the person may have met PC like games. Some games are getting towards the mark of console and PC games

I hate when salesman talk crap. They have no clue what they talking about.
about 2 years ago they said to me that symbian phones are not classified as smartphones.(in 2010 symbian was still big) So he tried to sell me samsung with BADA instead . lol.
back to the topic
DOSBOX Turbo, emulator . allows you to play pc games.

well long story short though.... I LOVE THIS PHONE!! . Yes the guy lied his @ss off but only having this phone for less than a day and i love it more than my LTE ive had for the last 3 months. Its also going to bring a lot of "opportunities" and "special" things for you all once I get everything setup!

Maybe he was talking about OnLive?

But this would work with most android phones.

you can also vnc to a windows machine. it would be terrible but it would work

Well, OnLive is more dependant on which Android version you have and the bandwidth you're getting. Android 2.2 or later for games that have touch inputs added. Android 3.1 or 4+ to use a controller for games that have gamepad support.
I've been using OnLive about a month after it went public. I have used it on Android with their universal controller. I tried it on the GN2. Worked good when I had the bandwidth, which was over my WiFI. The LFE around here has horrible upload speeds, and I think it caused it to crap out.
On a side note, the games on OnLive are the PC versions.

I was as upset as you. I found (and help build) a lit on Android Central's Note 7 forum, how to get the free items.
Here is the short run down... there is NO game pack. You need to download/install the games listed from the Play store. Then as you play them, you get the extras built into the game. A few of them immediately say "Welcome Samsung User, here is your gift" and some of them have a gift bundle in their market/store that you click on. One said "Exclusive Galaxy Savings" and it was a bunch of free items that would normally require an in app purchase to acquire. A few of the listed games don't seem to do anything for me at least.
Here is the link, it an active forum, and its on page 7 (at least at this second) http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-7/713198-where-free-vulkan-games.html

I thought it was Sim City, but the way it is written leads me to think it is the SIMS. There is not Sims City Free Play, it SIMS Free Play. I googled the offer, and it must be listed that way in the press release because everyone seems to have printed the same error. (BTW Non-stop Knight isn't the right title either)
