http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyI1QV8hJ6E
sound, music, display, it all works. its really fun. now only if warcraft 3 or starcraft worked...

Starcraft would be awesome! Nice, is there hang ups?

so far no, it runs really nice. i havnt got the keyboard to work tho, but it doesnt really matter. all i need is the touchscreen, and 1 button to hold down for the right mouse click button.

That's awesome! Cant wait for a starcraft port.

Works!
Some tips and info: The game takes a few seconds to startup, so don't click the executable twice. It WILL run twice... at the same time (duh). lol
For me, the mail key is the one you hold down for right click.
Runs great. no lag so far.
Thanks for this find Mikeeey!

yea i edited the shortcut in my start menu so it says "Warcraft II (Wait for load)" incase anyone else is ever playing on my phone and wants to play warcraft.

wow great find! gonna try it out now! if it runs like you guys say it does and as it does on the video, than thats amazing! all that w/o video drivers! hahaha

Hi,
Thanks for posting, this is GREAT news.... Warcraft II was in time my favourite game ever...
I'll try...
Cheers

yupp...
I've been playing this game from time to time since my first wm device (hermes) and I can confirm, that this port is tha bomb.
...but one thing have crossed my mind. did anyone consider at some stage to port Diablo? Diablo II would need to much resources, but 1 should run just fine. that would be something...
btw: I was trying to play diablo on psx emu, but... You know. it's not working well on kaiser. about 14 fps at most
anyway
mikeeey - keep 'em comming
cheers
bro

It is awesome..
Is it runing on top of emulator ? or is a original PPC version of Warcraft 2 ?

as I stated above this is port, which means it is written for ppc.
br
bro

Warcraft 2 does indeed very smooth, have it running on my kaiser for some months aswell and I have no complaints.
For those interested in this type of game, I also suggest Age of Empire port for PPC, which manages to be even better then Warcraft, specially graphics wise (at least it's my opinion).
cheers, Esko

where can i find the AoE port??

do i need QVGA and Xscale? or ARM?

Yeah. What Kind of processor version i should use when i have HTC Kaiser?

The "Full Release" version works.

Yes but there are many other ports of games so i need to know which version i should download for my kaiser...

Under QVGA (which is the kaiser's res), there is Xscale, arm, and Full Release. Download the Full Release.

i downloaded age of empires of ppc warez, but cant seem to get it to work. anyone have any luck?

Quake

Is anyone running quake on G1?

Is it available for g1? I would love to get it on here along with doom and some better games. All the market games are crap right now!!!

I have seen the First Android Emulator and Device on Google Presentation and they have Presented Quake also into that.
Why these so many Application is missing i dont know ?

Becasue of money...money....mooney.................MONEY

If they came out with it I would pay for it in a heartbeat!

I think you will not need to. QUAKE Source code is available free!!
Now its upto Google if they might have removed any Compatibility feature in libc

I have a sinking feeling that most developers are holding out until next year when they can charge for applications in the marketplace. That's fine with me (sort of) except that many apps will be for fixing many mistakes that Google so kindly left to 3rd party developers to fix or add... I would love to see what this baby can handle as far as Quake goes. I bet it could run Quake II pretty well! I know I could only run Quake I on my Wizard, this will be good. Also an NES and SNES emulator will be nice!

Yeah nes emulator is the one thing i cant wait for, if done properly. Using the trackball on alot of the old nes games would make them alot easier to play.

they want to wait till 2009 so they can charge in android market! NO

Quake for Android, it's possible?
Hey Guys,
I'm a new forum user... i would ask: exist quake for Android?
I saw quake 3 on nokia n95 8gb, the real game for pc on phone.. it's or will possible on g1?

There was a tech demo of Quake1 pre-G1 launch and we do have OpenGL so I would assume its possible. It would just require porting from C code to Java unless its made for root users only and re-compile existing code to a native ARM binary. As far as I know though, the tech demo was showing off mobile GPU tech by a company other then HTC and the HTC Dream doesn't have this GPU so it may have to be all done on the CPU making a Quake3 port unlikely. Quake1 definitely because its older, but I can't see Quake3.

That video of quake was on a G1 from what I could tell. Go back and watch it.

Thanks..
Because i already saw back, but I not found topic of Quake(I or II or II) on Android.. You have some link about this?

Yeah... Qualcom isn't HTC and that's not a G1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fH1Rd-T1rYM
As for this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FJHYqE0RDg there is no indication that's a G1 either as you can't prove its the Dream because of black plastic.
Either way both are showing off proto-types that have yet to see the light of day and if the last one was a G1 there's no telling what was stripped out before mass production. Considering HTC hasn't listed any GPU specific hardware with the Dream nor Magic I think its safe to assume any 3D content is software rendered.

I have no idea what you're talking about.
The MSM7201A is an ARM-based, dual-core CPU/GPU from Qualcomm and contains many built in features including 3G and a GPU capable of up to 4 million triangles/sec.

The phone playing Quake here is clearly a Dream:
http://www.markpascua.com/2008/02/28/googles-android-os-demo-plays-quake/
And if you still doubt it, download Neocore from the market. It's a pretty impressive 3D benchmark by Qualcomm.

I have already viewed this videos.. but exist an apk or some lines that explain how put Quake on Android?

I just want to say: if it using motion detector in the FPS game, then it's rocks

They would do anything to impress people to support the sales of a product.
They show us Quake... but where is it?
They show us biowallet/dyno... where are they?
They show us Flash... let's not get started...
Cupcake... ummm.... yeah...
It's all a tease.

I smell vaporware...

But can it run Crysis?

GTA 2?!

Hi there ,
ive got a simple question for you
Is it possible that Gta 2 will come out on the G1?!
It would be so great to play my favorite oldschool game on the G1
Thanks and Bye

With some Luck you will be able to play the GTA2 Playstation version in near future with MESS

you can ALREADY play the GAMEBOY version using Kidd gbc...

thats a joke
kiddgbc sucks
10fps
lol.

ive hit around 12, maybe 13, havnt hit 15 yet, even though, its still to laggy for me

i've been waiting for an update since the beginning of kiddGBC the dev claims there's a reason we can't faster, i'll see if i can find the email and put up his reason. if i remember correctly it was that java stuff was missing something

The KiddGBC developer is to silly to run native code on the G1 so his emulator uses only dalvik and so it sucks big time!
It is indeed possible to run native code on the G1 ... the ScummVM emulator and the arcade one does it!

Quake 2 for android

http://quake2-android.sourceforge.net/
looks promising and dev is offering beta testing for those who donate over $3. I dont have a paypal account, anyone test this yet?
thanks

WOW!
from what i saw that looked great!
i love first person shooters and will sooooo drain a battery if they get games like this on our android os!

Just donated five dollars, I'll post up a quick run down once I get my grubby paws on an apk

I won't risk donating for this one
The guy is the infamous Valdimir Silva - with the worst and sloppiest ports of games like Doom and Quake. I seriously doubt this one will be an exception, but we'll see. Please give us feedback if you get the app. I hope he actually sends you an apk and doesn't take donations for some vaporware or a doom WAD for Quake 2, which I remember exists. I bet his next "port" will be CS 1.6 - there's a doom WAD for De dust too

let us know how it is

i want quake3 arena so i can play some instaunlagged on my phone

Force closing after one one run, however, during that one run, it's pretty smooth.

where do i get the pak0.pak? i'm having trouble downloaing in my area and it tells me to get the pak0.pak and move it over using cpu?

Unreal Tournament being ported to Linux is almost impossible because it uses the Unreal Game Engine, which is created by Epic Games and is NOT open source... I mean, you could get the code off some shady torrent site, but there's no possible legal way of porting Unreal Engine to anything other than Windows, Mac OS X, PSP, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, Gamecube, Wii, etc...
The Quake engine's source code was released, so it is possible to run Quake now on a PSP, iPhone, ANDROID, etc.
P.S.
If there was an HTC Android phone with a full keyboard, a VERY FAST CPU, a high-res display, 512 MB RAM and some really good GPU, we'd be running Quake 3 and going to WLAN parties by now

Back to evaluating the game.

Pretty choppy on my phone. Not surprised, though.

what ROM are you on? and what phone? i'm on the HTC dream xROM 1.5r4 with about 40 apps (apps2sd of course) and my sdcard specs are in my sig. things runs smooth as hell with NO sound. WITH sound it runs a bit choppy.

G1 with the latest CM rom. I'll try it with no sound and see if that helps.
Thanks.

How do you enable sound
How do you huys enable sound. I saw there was a setting toggle while you are in game and use the menu of the application - toggle sound and toggle onscreen controls and I toggle the sound but nothing happens. Do you have to restart the game to get sound to work? A pretty damn good port btw - I regret saying bad things about the dev...

I am trying to run this, keeps F/C on start though. It ran after I first installed it but seems to hate me now.

UT is probably not the best example for a difficult linux port. "Porting" Unreal Tournament to Linux consists of installing it with the Linux installer provided by Epic themselves.

Seems only to be F/Cing for CM Donut users. I've been using XRom for a while, works perfectly (excellent port, no lag with sound disabled)

Assassins Creed Xbox live game on WP7 is AMAZING

Guyz... if you have not tried this game, you should. I highly recommend this. After playing this game on my HD7, it made me realize how amazing this WP7 OS is.
It actually gave me jitters. The Soft D-Pad and action controls that comes up on the screen are so sensitive and intuitive, you would not even feel the lack of hardware controls.
And the Graphics rendering with 3D is just MIND BLOWING.
Folks who do not own a WP7 device don't even have a clue what they are missing.
MS took their OS to the NEXT LEVEL. I'm a very happy camper.

yeah me too.. considering hd7 doesnt have dedicated gpu right? but the game graphics is quite good.

1000% agree with you on this one this game is simply WOW .

only issue, it bloody takes ages downloading this game, with many others...

Cut'em some skack. You are actually downloading an Xbox game on your phone. Its not like an App or something.
Try with the WiFi or from PC.

How bout a video?

^ Exactly. Big AC fan over here but as I remember the game was also released in 2008 on iPhone and it wasn't that mindblowing. Maybe this is a completely new version

No, you are right, this is the rather old AC game from long ago, just for Windows Phone is all. Nothing very impressive here. Its just nice to have it on a different platform.

You mean they didn't build Kinect into this thing?? Maybe that's coming in the refresh !

I'm sure the 'liking' part is subjective. Though I cannot comment on the game on the iPhone, since I never had the device, I was very impressed with the game on my HD7. I did play the game on Xbox and it had all the aspects of the game on the console.

Sorry for the language but at least we've got the video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMZ44xE66yc

Hmm it does seem it would be much more enjoyable on the HD7's rather large screen.

Its kind a port over from the iphone... i had it on my ipod touch so its kinda similliar..
but still a good game although I thought the apple one was slightly better than this one.
But then kudos for MS they are getting there atlast

Wow. What an experience. I just DL Assasins Creed, and I was blown away. This is not your normal smartphone, this device hands down is next generation. Be patient people- you are holding a Gem.

I love how you guys are flipping out over a game from 2008 with Nintendo DS graphics. Shows how out of touch some of you are with how mobile gaming has evolved over the last few years.
You guys should check out Rage HD on the iPhone or Epic Citadel. Prepare to be amazed.

I hope you're not implying that games of that quality won't come to WP7 soon. That's pretty idiotic, given how developers already do love XNA and Microsoft's development environment in general. It's been two weeks since the US launch. Give it some time. 3000~ apps in the Marketplace, obviously some crap (Just like in EVERY other marketplace) but browse around and there are some true gems. Trust this, mad games are coming.

Not at all. I'm sure there's awesome games coming to WP7, especially once we get past the first stage hardware and we get better GPUs on our phones.
I was just saying there are already mobile games that are light years ahead of Assassin's Creed.
