Which Roms allows the gamepad to be used

I have an R800i and R800a, R800i as of now is somewhat of a testing unit for the R800a for custom roms and such.
One question I have is which roms out there allows you to use the gamepad on the game?
I know for a fact that on CM7 u can't use the gamepad with games like dead space/BF2.... any EA games.
Can anyone suggest any other custom roms that allow the use of the gamepad on EA games??
Thanks

Anyone know if doom rom allows the game padto work?

Cm7 and gamepad

Hi im running cm7 on my play and when i try to play most games on it the game pad doesn't work but if i download the xperia play test app everything is working.
It works with emulators and minecraft.
I've tried uninstalling the apps and reinstalling without any luck. Still no touch pads response. Some games it happens with are fifa, lets golf 3 and modern combat 3

Search before posting. Known issue. Use stock or lose touchpads

well it works with PES and minecraft and emulators so not exactly lose touchpads.
i seen a thread to put the games that work in cm in green and red for ones that dont. seems all EA games and Gameloft dont work with cm7.
there was solution there so thought id create another to see if anyone knew that didnt see the other post

Quick games

Which games do you play (Xperia play optimized) when you just want a quick play around and not get into a game like backstab. I'm thinking of sonic to fill the gap but are there any alternatives?

I usually fire up one of the OrangePixel platform games for a quick fix / Meganoid, Stardash or Jumpy

I never really liked those games tbh. Wasn't too fond of them and don't even like sonic that much really. Sonic 4 just looks good

Fifa 12, mostly
I usually do Fifa 12 or asphault 6 for quick play. Just a quick match or single race and done.
With a little more time I am actually enjoying Anomaly Warzone more than I believe I should
PvZ was a great time killer as well.

I don't like fifa that much. Pes seems to have much sharper and better graphics but saying that I haven't played fifa in quite a while

I usually just go for a retro game emulated. My particular game of choice is Super Mario Bros. 3

For me its Fifa 12 or emulators.

DeadSpace
Asphalt 6
Modern Combat 3
ShadowGun
Or GigaWing on the Tiger Arcade

For a quick game? I wouldn't get into modern combat probably if I was short on time

Emulator wish list

Aside from modern consoles (ps2 onwards) what emulators would you love to see on the Xperia Play?
I'd love to see an N-Gage emulator (laugh away) as it had some decent games. I recall a WW2 strategy type game but can't remember what it was called, Tomb Raider and an Elder Scrolls game.
I'd love to see some PC conversions as well. There's a Metroid clone that looks like Canabalt called Minitroid that would be brilliant with the gamepad

I actually had the original N-Gage (still do actually) and a couple uears ago had the N-Gage 2.0 phone Nokia N-95 8gb. N-Gage 2.0 was terrible. Now the games I would love to see from the original N-Gage. Ashen, Elder Scrolls Travels: ShadowKey, Glimmerati, and my favorite - Requiem of Hell.

A Nintendo DS emulator would be awesome. Especially if you could play in landscape (with the gamepad) and see the DS's screens side by side

DS emulators for Android do exist, but last time I tried, they were too slow and had no sound, making them unplayable. I don't believe any updates have been made since.

Yeah I tried 2 of them but they were just to prove that it could be done. Unplayable

PSP. or at least them to add some psp games to the market.

[Q] [q] Best gameloft games now?

Here's the old threads, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1607643 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778316
What's the answer today? I heard they took Xperia Play controls OUT of Nova 3, is that true?
I'm looking at MC4 and Asphalt 7, I need a third game

ZombieWood is a good option. Others: Wild Blood, The dark knight and the best of all, Modern Combat 4.
Other new great game; but not made by Gameloft, is Bladeslinger.

I'm pleased to report that if asked nicely, Gameloft will provide a direct download of version 1.0.2 of NOVA 3.
I anticipate also getting MC4 for sure.

Got MC4 and Asphalt 7. Got to disable AdrenoBooster for Asphalt, still have some FCs. MC4 works great.

MW - Better graphics, most realistic, licensed cars, great carrer mode. Bad soundtrack
Asphalt 7 - The visual is not so realistic, gameplay like arcade. Great soundtrack. Multiplayer mode
My favorite is MW, but asphalt is an great game too.

Nice i love the fifa games i had fifa 12 but uninstalled it because of low memory. What size sd card do you use to fit everything? And what rom do you use that runs high end games the smoothest?
Sent from my r800x using xda developers app

I have a SD Card with 32GB Class 10 - Samsung. The rom is AuroraPlay V8.1 GB 2.3.7 Based. The best for me at this time. All games running smooth. Follow the link if you want download: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124442

I haven't played NFS:MW yet. Asphalt 7 looks bad in screenshots but actually looks and feels really good while playing. I would compare it to NFS:U on the PC, except instead of drifting mode it has a big powerslide feature they call drifting But it's actually really enjoyable. I didn't enjoy the analog control much, but using the gamepad on the Play is great. If I really want to play a simulation, I can play Gran Turismo 2!
I've only played a little MW4 and Nova 3 so far. I think Nova 3 is actually the better of the two games from a technical perspective. It feels much more responsive and the graphics come across better. It's also better from the perspective of playability on small screens. In MW4 you're expected to shoot stuff that's just a couple pixels across. It has autoaim, but it can be pretty hard to even see what you need to shoot on a 4" screen. But this is just a first reaction to the game engine, really, not the game overall.

I havent tried nova 3 yet. But i heard they removed xperia play controls. Is that true?
Sent from my r800x using xda developers app

Nova 3 1.0.2 available from gameloft
I don't even know if it's true, but if you see above in this thread, I emailed them and asked them for version 1.0.2 which I understood to have Xperia Play controls (from another forum thread, if I find it again I will link it) and they sent me a direct download link to the right version. I can confirm that version 1.0.2 works on my Xperia Play with full gamepad support including analog controls.

Im already have nova 3 1.0.2 version, but the touch analog got problem when on vehicles. Really annoying to control it but already finish the game.
