[Q] Games for 2.3

So, now that gingerbread has been released and the fact that it was "geared towards gaming", have we even seen ANY games released specifically for it? I've tried googling, looking in market, etc, etc, etc. but anything I search on google returns nothing but news about the release of gingerbread and anything i search on market returns...nothing.
I'm deployed overseas right now and some new games would be pretty awesome to tinker around with.

I haven't noticed any new for gb games, but I have noticed that a few games that I couldn't play on my aria/froyo due to fc issues now run flawlessly on cm7.

are you able to play "gun bros" i cant firgure out why its not playin ..i think its time for a new phone

.
Aria is not the best gaming platform as many of the good games uses ARMv7 instructions while our beloved Aria has just a ARMv6 cpu :/

One thing I have noticed is that I cannot run Need For Speed Shift on CM7. I could run it with no problems on CM6 but it shows the splash screen and then shuts down. I tried reinstalling it several time, and nothing. Has anyone else tried any graphics intensive games on CM7? NFS is the only one I have.
Every other game runs just fine. Robo Defense Full ran just fine on CM6 and just as good on CM7 for me.

Psx emulation

I am having trouble getting psx4droid working, I have the right settings,bios, and the.bin file is valid, but ia attempt to load it and it restarts back to the file tree....
So I downloaded, FPse, and to my surprise, it works! So I guess my question is, which one is better? Is psx4d worth trying to fix?
Thanks for any advice!

if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

How did you get fpse to work without lag?

Cm7+overclock+(no game sound )= no lag...

Where do you get your roms from?

Not here cause piracy is bad.

I have an assload of PlayStation games, I just want to know where he got them from. Roms are legal if you actually own the game, which I do.

If you have them you can rip them using programmes like ISO buster.
You'll get an iso file and that's the rom you need.

Thank you

FPse seems better to me. I tried PSX4Droid and it was much slower than FPse. FPse rocks!!

Yeah, psx4droid used to be terrible...but: now its available for free on the developers website
The version isn't the same as on the market: its version 3.
Surprisingly it performs about as good as fpse and graphics are better (even with anti aliasing off). But: You only can enable auto frameskip and not manually choose the amount of skipped frames. Furthermore the menu is a bit buggy.
But since it's free why not give it a try?

Best App For Video Chatting

Whats the best video messaging app. Right now Im using Tango to video chat off a Galaxy Tab and Thunderbolt. But its got some bugs.. Its really staticy. Does anyone recommend another video app. I got the tab last week and gave it to my girlfriend so we can chat while shes away on business, she's in new york while im in chicago but we can only see eachother for about 15 mins then we gotta talk off the phone cuz there is so much static, and delay.
Im hoping someone has an ace up their sleeve because that would be awesome

I used Tango last night, but the guy I was testing wiyh said my image was maginified way too much. All he could see was my eye and nose.

Try oovoo. It's working good for me over wifi.

Ive heard that from a few people. I use the thunderbolt and i haven't had that issue, luckily.

I'm using vtok as well it works over google talk an works from tab to pc/mac

I'd tested tango and oovoo.
Both dont work fully with Gingerbread 2.3.3.
The video of the frontcam is 90 degrees turned.
The video and audio quality is better with oovoo.
The audio quality with tango is terrible.

The only one working with froyo is skype together with qik which is from skype.
Together working without problems and with good video

alot of people like to knock it but I've tried many different video messaging apps, but I still find the Qik video app the better of all the ones ive tried. Also tried yahoo messenger video chat, works ok but I dont use yahoo enough to use it.

Im gonna give a shot to vtok, are there any other solutions for tab to pc/mac? I really need this to talk to my family in mexico, none of my family relatives has data plan in their phones is just way too expensive and slow unlike the U.S.

other solution to call pc from tab is oovoo and is working great

i m having trouble after i upgraded my froyo to gingerbread, the front video is inverted, the program i am using is QIK. any one else had the same problem ?

I like oovoo. It works well for me.

IMHO Skype dropped the ball big-time by not including video (& sms) for android. I'm using ooVoo. I'm pretty sure it's the only app that allows video calling from android to PC. When it works, it works great - even on 3G. But it has been giving problems these last few days. However, the support that I've received from them has been good. They haven't figured out what the problem is yet, they're looking into out & their responses have been quick.

Tried Dice, they only had the free version available on the market. Anyways, video quality is horible and hardware acceleration isnt working... I have my note on tablet mode (lower density) so it could be a reason.
thanks though

If u want to download video from torrent directly to ur sdcard u have to install some kind of torrent downloader.
I think it's more comfortable to download film on ur pc/laptop and then copy it to sdcard.

Yes, videos are working just fine with or w/o hardware acceleration. When playing music on the other hand, it close down after 1-2 minutes. Music work fine when disabling hardware acceleration tho.
