[Q]Games

What are some good games Aria ppl are trying? I know its small screen will deter some from playing games but it can handle alot.
I've been playing the Sims 3 for a while but I think there are some better graphic ones that it could do as well. The emulators are retro but has anyone tried psx4droid? Id like some feedback on that. MT3GS ppl say some psx games are laggy!

Well I know the screen is small so I found that you can use a wii controller.

You can do one of these with the WiiMote too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rxJq6tQVw8&feature=related
As far as games go, I haven't downloaded many. I like Traffic Jam tho. I probably won't install any emulators for a while. I'm having too much fun with customizations to have anytime for games haha.

Guitar Hero is great

have you guys actually tried this on your aria? Or are you saying it is possible. Because from what i've been reading/tried, it isn't.

Nah, I haven't tried it. I just thought it was pretty crazy and wanted to share the video.

yea, unfortunately... the bluetooth stack used in our phones are not compatible with the wiimote. So unless that changes, you're not going to have any luck using that particular remote.

Not true. I have hooked up my wiimote to play game boy advance games.
Things you will need:
1. Rooted phone.
2. CyanogenMod rom. Nothing with HTC Sense. Again if you are using Stock, Stock w/Root, or Liberated Stock it will not work.
3. Goto market, download "Wiimote Controller" by C.C.P. [email protected]
4. Follow Setup on the app. It will set up as another keyboard. Only useful for a handful of other apps, but like I said I use it for GBA

thanks for replying, i've been trying to find out if the cyanogen rom made changes to the bluetooth stack. Asked it twice and no resonce in that thread. Figures that I'd get an answer here lol.
This is good to know that it works when i make the switch from liberated to cyanogen

Thanks. It is awesome. I'm gonna try Gameboid later and see if I can get Advance Wars for it.

Guns 'n' Glory FREE is a great tower defense like game with a Western cowboys and indians twist. even the free version is hard enough to keep anyone entertained for a good while.

I like the games My Paper Plane 2, and Home run Battle 3D... The touch screen controls on the aria such too much for proper emulator gaming

Since not many people talked about the emulators, I guess I shall write a bit.
So I've been playing around with the emulators for the past week or so. I have the SNESoid, Gameboid, and PSX4droid emulators. Anyway first the SNES emulator. For the most part, games play pretty well. There is some occasional slowdown but not much. There is a bit lag though on games that use the SA-I processor (mario rpg and kirby super star). Sound on a few games are a little choppy but for the most part, it's decent. Just have to tinker with the settings. Games like super mario world (i have all stars) plays very well. Chrono trigger plays nicely too. I have close to 20 roms right now.
Next is the Gameboid emulator. I have a few roms for the gba emulator (FFI and FFII, and a gundam game, have tried a few others but decided to delete them lol..). I must say, the gba emulator runs the best. It's seems like the Aria hardware was made to play gba games lol. There's no lag whatsoever and the sound is great! I find it ironic because the gba had better hardware than the snes so you would think the snes roms would play better. I think later I'll try more roms like advanced wars or something.
Last is the PSX4droid emulator. Well let's just say it can play the games. First game I tried was chocobo racing. It was a little slow and the sound was bad. Then I tried digimon world 3. The game played well but a little slow and the sound was also bad lol. I'm going to try brave fencer musashi and warcraft II next. Both are currently being downloaded.
Oh btw...I suppose it would make a difference but during my gaming, I only had around 30-40mb of ram. Maybe I should've killed the other apps to gain more memory. I suppose it would run a bit better?

Angry birds beta is the funnest game i've played on the aria yet!

Good review, I've only tried snesoid thus far. Super mario rpg did see a bit of a speed up for me when I switched to cyanogen. I think I still had to set it to skip a 4 frame max though. The audio was fairly bearable then.

Play Call of Duty? Check this out

http://www.callofdutymappacks.com/ A website here which has a list of all the map packs currently and soon to be available to the COD series. Since there are so many out there at the moment it's a nice way to view them all and what they offer

Which system you play on?
I play on the 360, Memphis Vito.
I love Nuke Town.

So easy to dominate on Nuke Town it's actually kind of insane.
I bought Black OPs and I think I had close to 16 hours played, prestiged and grew incredibly tired and I ended up returning it about 3 days after the purchase.
Extremly excited for MW3.

Yeah MW3 should be awesome XD any one considering battlefield 3 though?

Not really a fan of stadium. But nuketown is addicting. There is just something so homely about slaughtering people in a nice house
Sent from my SilverBullet 'HTCDesireZ running CM7'

Stadium is ok if you have some nice spots.
I have never played single player mode, **** looks boring.
I play Zombies a lot. So this new pack is a must for me.

Are ya'll gonna miss the zombies though in MW2? Cause if they have another spec ops type thing then i'll be very happy

I hope so, too

I got burnt on Nuketown - but it is fun getting First Blood medals on there.
Mostly playing Dom or Ground War with some HQ thrown in to get my Prestige.
I love Stadium for rushing.... too much fun.
I like the new maps as they seem to be pretty balanced. The only one I can't run very well is Hazard - too much sniping for my tastes.
I'm looking forward to BF:3 when it comes out - but will be playing it on CPU instead of Console.
If anyone wants to... I play on PS3 - gamer tag is avgjoegeek (go figure?)

Blood and Glory

I'm hoping I don't get **** for this, but since it's about an app it should be fine.
Anyways, I tried out Blood and Glory today and it's pretty damn awesome. For those who haven't heard of it, it's pretty much like Infinity Blade on iOS. Graphics aren't as good, but they're still pretty impressive.
For those who HAVE heard of it, what are your thoughts on it?

I've played it and many similar but I'd rather just play mw2 on my xbox or any other game on it. I don't game too much on my phone but racing games have entertained me most on it. I could see how people would like it though.

Yeah. I wish they had more racing games, Hot Pursuit is the only decent one aside from the messed up car sounds.
Real Racing 2 was good but buggy compared to the iOS version. I had my hopes up for it but oh well.

Just uninstalled it last nite.......got sick of the stupid ad notifications that show up in the status bar every morning or whenever u run the game! Too annoying.

It is good game, but I preffer to buy gam than to pay later for this in-app ****. You can play for free for a while but then I discovered I will have to spend lots of money to finish this game (20$ or more...)

i play till end..this is a good game
and all free

I will give a try
i play zenonia4 now and im very pleasure with this , but i will give a try

I like it. I play it every now and then.

You're a little late on the MGS4
If you enjoyed the stealth aspect of MGS4 you'll probably like Deus Ex Human Revolution.
If you like RPGs Fallout:New Vegas Game Of the Year came out recently and it includes all the DLC plus the base game for less than the cost of the DLC.

Completed it again on Extreme for kicks
I think I'll let the thread run for a while, see what I get! (Your suggestions were pretty cool, might check 'em out

Ninja Gaiden Sigma. It's a greatest hit now so it should only be $20 brand new.
God of War III. Definitely worth at least one playthrough.
One of the new versions of Street Fighter.
Dead Space 1&2

Uncharted, all of them. They're the only games that really push your console to its boundaries, and show what it can do. Of course they are good games otherwise too.
If you like racing games, then I recommend Gran Turismo 5, it's a great driving simulator with a LOT of stuff. Car info and prices are quite realistic, and so is the driving itself.
Also, if you care for arcade style race more, the check out Need for Speed Shift 1 and 2. They're also pretty good, just different.

Same here, Uncharted No question. I saw the preview for Uncharted 3, then looked up 2, then grabbed 2, After I read the reviews, I picked up the first one. Played all 3 in order. OMG I would of gotten a PS3 just for that series. There is nothing like it on the 360 (and I am a much bigger 360 fan than PS3)
Check out the preview for "The last of us", from the same makers as Uncharted, but, this is a game that I will have on release day, it looks that good...
If you like different cop type of games, Heavy Rain is a big one for the system and got great reviews.
You could always do the shooter games, Black Ops, MW3, great games, no question but, they are cross platform. I also enjoyed Max Payne 3 (good story if you like Max Payne, I did play the 360 version tho)

Two ther epic games are inFamous & inFamous 2. That is one of THE best games ever made for a console. ;-) Why have all the best characters gotta die? !

I'm a big fan of Battlefield 3(BF in general) too. PC players say it's not a game for consoles, but I disagree. Sure it's better on PC(64P and HC graphics), but you can't say it's not good for PS3. Love that game. Way better than CoD IMO. Don't like playing with 8yr old kids!

Why? They've only released two extensions and there are still three to come(total of 5). Next Battlefield will be released in min. year.

Both BioShock games are really good, the first one has an AMAZING story and the second one lets you dual wield so the gameplay is better. The Portal Games are really good too if you like puzzles, the first one is on The Orange Box which is a great value! It has the Half Life games on it, they are sweet games if you like oldschool style FPS. For upcoming games check out Watch Dogs, Dishonored, and BioShock Infinite.

Battlefield 3 was great until all the worthless updates. CQ is every COD lovers wet dream, people are whoring aim assist, and a number of tweaks have just made the game utterly ridiculous. I will not be buying anymore battle sims in the near future it seems. The game is not anywhere near as fun as it used to be.

I don't understand... The tweaking and updates are only released to balance the game. Practically, there are no over powered weapons due to the active updating. CoD is only updated when there is really really something wrong, a huge bug or something. DICE updates the game to make it fun for every one.

As this thread started out as a specific "advise me of new PS3 games", I didn't see the need to point people at the existing gaming thread. It's now become pretty much what that thread is so I suggest people go there to carry on discussing this.

Current addictions follow.
Titanfall - I don't even use the mechs. I prefer to rodeo them
APB - All Points Bulletin, free to play shooter. Pretty much GTA online. Extremely addicting.
And when I get bored with those two.
Terraria - Sprites>polygons
Tf2 - Team fortress two. Usually drunk as hell when I play this.

I'm on a Metroid and Oddworld frenzy right now so I've been using emulators. Also +1 on San Andreas. I play chess on Chess Time, its multiplayer cross platform and a really great chess app. Its free with ads but adfree handles that for me. My name on there is SpasticMonkey if anyone wants to get a game going.

It's been a while but I'm reviving this thread.
I've been looking for a fun rpg lately that doesn't require in app purchases to enjoy.
I've tried order and chaos and after getting to level 17 I'm now thinking it's getting a bit slow. It's hard to do anything without using actual money from there. I don't mind buying games but I hate iap because they're never enough you always need to spend more.
I saw other similar ones like avable online but I don't want to get into one and then end up deleting it,
So let me know, thanks
Sent from my VS980 4G

So anybody?
Not many gamers on g2?
Recently all I've played was clash of clans but I've gotten kinda bored with it and really want some good rpg.
Order and chaos is great but it's pretty much pay for anything good, avable online had really nice graphics but the interface was lacking and the menus are pretty bad and also things didn't show up until you came really close to them while in order and chaos you can see things from a farther distance.
Ive heard good things about arcane legends so it's the next in my list to try but it looks really cartoony. I'm still gonna try it considering all the positive reviews.
If anyone found a really good one please let me know because there's way too many to try each one at a time
