Best games you have played and would recommend

Exactly as the title says.
Also post games you hate so we dont fall for them:
Games i've tried and recommend:
Age of empires gold (Name says it all)
Sim City 2000 (dito)
Dopewars (Addicting)
Teeter (Comes with the phone)
MC Poker (play online with other people Texas Hold 'em)
SkyForce Reloaded (Really fun; just try it)
Snood (aim and shoot "snoods" and match them up to destroy them)
Midnight Pool 3d ( Im a pool fanatic *demo comes with phone)
Games not to get:
Arvale II (just too simple / redundant. Its rpg style but it sucks (in my opinion))
Feel free to add on

Couple of old games I had that work well on my Sprint TP:
Acky's XP Breakout - VGA breakout-style game works nicely with the stylus
Atomic Cannon - Nice graphics on a Scorched Earth-type game. This one occasionally has a sound glitch where the sound stops, going into sound settings and disable/enable cycle fixes.
Bejeweled 2 - Of course. How can you go wrong?

Not all test on the TP but I was just looking on other forums about best games. And here is a list I made of games I wanna try
Call of Duty 2
Warfare Inc
Arvale and Arvale 2
Krally
minijetfight
UNDERCROFT
soldier ants.
SkyForce Reloaded
Lemonade inc
tots n togs
The Quest
Quake Mobile
Rayman Ultimate
pocket heroes

I would highly recommend Orions: Legend of Wizards and its expansions.

could you provide links as to where you get the games from...

yeah sure when i get to a computer. i gotta say some of those suggestions look really good. i warn you though if you get the arvale series only get the demos because you will be dissapointed
p.s. has anyone here actually played the quest? it looks interesting, but is it worth it?

I'd love to see some links also. Does Sim City 2000 work well with the Fuze controls? Do you play with keyboard out, or no? Does it display full screen landscape?

lemings
syberia
warcraft2
ufo
and if one goes into the whole
amiga, c64, snes and MAME emulator
scene then it's a different question i guess
diff people diff tastes i like fps games as much as
the next guy but dont really feel it works on pda's using
the touch screen
tombraider worked ok but required many many hardbuttons to
work so dont believe any htc devices ever had the option to stop
the game without softreset

thanks for the recommendations. what am i not seeing with dopewars? i tried it for two seconds and was already bored (and a bit confused).
by the way, please indicate if your recommendations require extensive use of the d-pad (touchpad). we all know it's not the best to use and i've had to stop playing one of my favorites (ms. pac-man) because it's clumsy to navigate in fast-paced games without hitting the back or home buttons.

I have always been addicted to Quartz 2 and am glad to see that they have released a VGA version.

I never softreset when I want to stop playing TombRaider. Press Home button, click right corner (HTC Task Manager), hold your finger/stylus and drag until you'll see Tomb Raider, move to X (you need to hold your finger cos' the screen flickers).
Have you found a method to map the keys? The arrow keys are kinda reversed.
Some of the games I've tested:
- Rayman, bad control, poor framerate
- Prince of Persia HD, moves heavily
- Assassins Creed, again moves heavly, the game is not fluid
- Zuma Deluxe, nice one
- DragonBall, zuma deluxe style game, kinda slow
- Warfare Inc, nice strategy game
- I244 Machines at War, again nice strategy game
- Spore, kinda slow
- Lemmings
- NFS, jerky game
- Cokoto CartRacer, jerky game, poor graphics
- Rats, nice platform game but it's so slowly on TP
- Age of Empires
- Warcraft 2, i cannot select items properly.. it's like the screen is not calibrated
- TombRaider, this one runs really good. If I can remap the keys as I want..
- Bejeweled 2, nice logic game
- Pac-Man
- Quake III Arena
- Call of Duty II
I recommend (you don't need to rely on D-PAD for these games):
- Bejeweled 2
- Zuma Deluxe
- DragonBall (even if it's a bit slow)
- Warfare Inc
- I244 Machines at War
- Age of Empires
And for show-off:
- COD 2
- Quake III Arena

Has anyone installed Hasbro Scrabble on a VGA device? I hope it doesn't go bonkers.

You have to be careful which one you get.
Handmark Scrabble works perfectly with pixel doubling. Highly recommended.
EA Mobile Scrabble is gorgeous, but unbelievably bad. The control was designed for mobile phones and it lacks enormously important features. Just... don't.

I have Handmark Scrabble and am very glad to know that when my device arrives on Friday that my favorite game will work. Curious about pixel doubling though, wouldn't there actually need to be pixel quadrupling in order to go from qvga to vga?

none of the games i recomended need the dpad... simcity2000 works well just run the tut. it can be a bit of a strain on the eyes sometimes.

Concerning d-pad troubles. Could there be a way to disable the phone and windows/back buttons prior to starting a game and automatically re-enable them when you quit? This way games would be much more playable...

Technically, yes. But since most of the math involved is just multiplying by two on each axis, "doubling" does make some sense. And it's shorter and easier to say.

OK, that's good enough for me.

Resco Bubbles is nice, if you like Tweeter.

Good Games For Kaiser?

Im looking for some good games. Just recommend anything besides sports games.

duke nukem 3d
duke nukem 3d is an excellent game for the kaiser its an exact copy of the game for the pc but takes up about 80 meg the best one i have seen for graphics is quake which too is an exact copy of the pc game but takes long to load (about 3 mins) hate sports games myself they are just too boring lol

Emulators?
I enjoy strategy/action/rpg games. I play zelda snes and final fantasy 2 & 3 on my snes emulator. I also play pocket uno and my girlfriend loves drug wars. All my suggestions are freeware by the way. There's some REALLY good games out there like command and conquer ppc edition if you want to spend some money.

The old Amiga game, Anotehr World is a classic that translates well to the phone
Azgard Defence is a great tower defence game.
Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia are good platform/fighting games with lovely 3d graphics
Explode Arena is a good update of Bomberman
Exit Nights and Orions are good Magic the Gathering-esque card based strategy games.
Dynomite is a cracking Puzzle Bobble/Bust a Move type game
Brain My Day is the best brain training type game I've managed to find
Zuma's good.
Mazera's a good arcade/adventure game
Worms World Party is fantastic and Snails looks like a decent alternative too.
Good puzzle games are:
BoxUp
Chuzzle
Cubis
Jelly Blocks
Link Letters
Mars Needs Cows
Mummy Maze
Text Twist
Traffic Jam

3 mins to load quake 2?! yikes!
mine takes around 20 secs. (running the TF2D).
also try doing a search for morphgear which will play almost any old nintendo rom you can find nicely, sega/atari/coleco roms are around too, but might require a bit more searching to get the right emulator for them.
I used to login to yahoo games from the road and play cards against the wifey when i was on the road too, so there are a million possibilites.
goodluck!

post some good games up 2 guys

Thanks for the replies guys! I downloaded a nice little pack that has Age of Empires and a few more good lucking games. I love tankzors its like the most addicting game ever. It runs in fullscreen on the kaiser and its runs perfect. I recommend it.

What's a good site to find good free games for Kaiser?
There's so many sites out there that I'd like help weeding out the sites to avoid by sticking with only the ones recommended.
Thanks!

I enjoy playing:
Azguard Defence
Brain my Day
Kevtris (GF's favorite)
Spore (for ppc)
NanoBotz (very fun worms clone!)

Question...the games posted here works good on kaiser?
cuz i hear thoes video driver problems...

monopoly world edition!
http://www.eamobile.com/Web/mobile-game/monopoly-world
runs great on the kaiser, but shaking the die is a bit skiddish (touch screen)

So, it is posted on this forum but I wan't to repost it here...
It is port of old classical and legendary game Duke Nukem 3D
Becouse PC version was playable without mouse it is no problem to play it on Kaiser.
Before you start the game, pull keyboard and switch to landscape....

I found that "Here and Now" edition to be quite flaky, but the old Handmark Monopoly plays great!

High Quality Games for Andriod

Hi, we all know that there is a huge lack of good, high quality games for android. So i would like to start a thread that picks the best out of the pool.
Here is my best-of:
- Jewellust (far better than Bejeweled)
- Devilry Huntress (like Jewellust)
- Christallight Defense
- Bonsai Blast
- Gameboid (Gameboy Advance Emulator, works great!)
- Buka
- Totemo (when its out!)
What are your favourite HIGH Quality Games?

retro defence
snesoid - works fine
scummvm - I've run monkey island and day of the tentacle so far
xgalaga
and light racer is pretty good fun also (although maybe not HQ)

+Recommended
Robo Defense
Orbs knock off
Labyrinth (the 3d tilt effect works brilliant ingame)
+Pretty
Super-G stunt (or anything by that company)
The doom emulator / port
Streets of rage 3 on gensoid
super mario world on snesoid
armadillo roll
buka
3d cube demo

+1 for Robo Defense
I also like these games:
Cestos - draw the directions you want the balls to go to try to push opponent's balls into a hole... play against people online makes it even more fun
Trap! - divide box into smaller boxes without getting hit by bouncing balls
Baseball Superstars 2009 is quite fun too even though I don't know much about baseball

All I know, that pretty much on my first Android boot and Market visit, I downloaded Doom from the Market, turned on my Wifi, and in the Doom application clicked on 'download shareware .WAD' and 'download sounds'. And it works fine.
So either something is wrong with your Doom installation or Hero, or (more likely) your WAD still isn't entirely compatible with _this_ port.

Its a good game, but as you say, its an iphone port. and it seems its not ported very well. its slow, its not responsive, so its not big fun.
What about HeroCraft and PDAMill. Why dont they port their really good games like Snails, Gamebox Solitaire to Android?

Not that impressed with the games. Keeping fingers crossed. Like Light Racer though.

Abduction!
http://www.cyrket.com/package/au.com.phil
So simple yet very addictive. Been playing a fair bit and still not exhausted the free version to warrant buying the full one yet.

I like ProjectINF(actually this game is super fun some lag though in my area) umm Dojo Cubed is fun, Guitar Hero World Tour, AWplanet has potential if you can put up with the movement.

Some other games
The Sims 3
Sim City Metropolis

Need help, what is the best quality games for htc touch pro?

resco snake is a pretty good one, along with the teeter game that comes with the phone
http://www.resco.net/games/windows/Snake.aspx

Resco bubbles, tiki towers, xtrakt, dragonball, spb brain evolution 2 are amazing well done & "finished" games.

i found meon in the marketplace. its pretty fun.

I like the teeter game which came with the phone

Marble Worlds 2 is also need accelerometer to play it. Pls try.

pdaMill Gamebox Classics and Gamebox Solitaire are two I couldn't live without.
Handmark Yahtzee is another I've installed for years now.
Resco SuDoku is one I enjoy every night before going to sleep.

Slider and Meon from the Marketplace are both pretty good.

"Quality" is an entirely subjective word. Could mean anything. Could mean, "highest resolution images," or, "fastest animation." It could mean something I'm not even thinking about, to you.
The games mentioned here are all fun. None of them are "best quality." There's no definitive way to say one of them is, in my opinion...
For touchscreen games, I love ICBM (Missile Command via touchscreen). Also a big fan of Pocket Uno (huge time-waster).
There are some fun g-sensor toys, like the Lightsaber, the Magic 8 Ball, and the GClippers (my personal favorite prank of the moment). There's a Galaga-like game called GInvaders which is merely okay (again, my opinion only). YMMV.
FYI, here's a great collection of games in a gigantic single cab file. (19MB FTW)

Check HERE and HERE and you will find some really good ones. You can google and find a lot of free ones.

Are those games free? I didnt know there were more games for the phone other than the snes and sega roms. Im trying to find more proper games that are free. In aus you cant get these games since none of the networks have games that are compatiable for this phone.

All of the games I mentioned are free. None of them requires a network connection to play, and if you can't get to sites that offer these games as downloads, I'm surprised that you can get here, as well. Not sure what else you could be talking about, when you say "networks."

Found some free games here.

The best Gsensor game on the touch pro is need for speed undercover

Best game period. Great graphics, amazing 3d engine with no lag almost PSP quality 3d, very very responsive gsensor controls, more than just 1 or 2 levels.
I really enjoyed cops and robbers too but it was just too short, I was so disappointed when I realized after finding all the diamonds there wasn't another quest/level set.
But those two for games that a console person would like.
Other than that ya Resco bubbles, and Resco Brain Games are also on my Fuze.
But man get NFS Undercover, amazing. I had my iphone fanboy friends mouth watering playing that. Though I believe they have similar games the resolution on the fuze really makes it look amazing.

Paid games for htc magic

Hi,
I bought Real Football 2011 (not HD) and is not working on my Magic.
Instead, NFS Shift is working preety great, altought I can't drift.
So, if you know other games that can be bought and they work, write here.
The problem is that I saw that a lot of 2011 games are not working on Magic. If you played one that works let us know (do not link to any websites or warez).

Of course, Magic's GPU is bad ^^ . I think Magic cant play any 3d/HD game . Anyway, i played Zenonia 2 , Robo defense .

Yes, HD games arent for Magic. I bought FIFA 2010 and it works fine, only when are a lot of players in the box, it "slows down".

I assume you are using a mod, as otherwise I would say that anything that you can see on your phone in the market should certainly also be able to run on it.
But basically, anything that runs under OS 1.5 will work fine - Zenonia 2, Majesty, Hungry Shark, to name a few. I expect most 1.6 games would work well too - there's not much difference between the Hero and the Magic, hardware wise. Once you're into OS 2.0 games, though, you should be careful.

I use the official update, 2.2.1, and it works fine.
I want 3D games, like the ones I mentioned above, although it doesn't run very smooth.

Games like Speedx3d and Cut the rope runs good on the magic, try overlocking the cpu.
