Dude you know XDA'ers don't follow instructions. I downloaded it anyway to secure the download and it works! Looks great and no lag.

Yea, I found it a bit funny bc the description says its not compatible with tablets, yet Amazon website has a green compatible check mark next to the Xoom. Sow sadly it does start on a black screen on the xoom like its not going to work but if u keep taping the screen and tring to move stuff to the screen it will work.
I just loaded the app and it started. What kernel are you using? Are you on OC GPU? I don't like that OC stuff so I'm stock. I'm up to level 40 and it hasn't sputtered or crashed (knock on morning wood).

I actually am using stock and am not rooted. I was thinking about flashing for sdcard support but I think Im gonna wait and see what 3.2 brings.
The game is awesome I used to play it back in my iOS days.

It seems to work for me.. the 'not for tablets' is probably because it isn't optimized as well as you have to scroll the screen a little bit up/down to see the top are of the screen for putting towers etc and down to put them on the lowest part of the playing field. Otherwise.. seems to work great for me.
I get an Unauthorized Request error when I start it up. I click OK and it closes .

I'm in the same boat as you, and it sadly isn't working. I got SOO excited when it came out too!
Anyone have a work around? It begins to play the game fine. I select the level and difficulty, it shows me where all of the buttons are, and then the map turns black. The game continues on, and I can use the in-game controls, but can't see anything. Guess I'm just beat

I'm using a custom kernel. Try going to the dev section and looking in the Notubuntu thread. Flash that kernel and try it. Maybe its kernel related. Mines works fine everytime. I'm on wave 70 and no hiccups.
By the way I'm not overclocked or anything. I'm using the stock honeycomb also. If you guys are using a different ROM it could be an issue.

For me the trick is to do a two finger re-size on the black background, this causes the play field to be redrawn and works great.
Anyone have this issue? See the small text?
Man this game is harder than it looks. How the hell do I stop the helicopters from getting past? I feel like I'm upgrading the early buildings and its killing me!
I noticed that when my game ended and my name was on my high score list. I could not read the list. Either the text was microscopic or was not working correctly.

I have the issues too. I beat the game on easy and medium. Save up for lightning towers and upgrade them to the Max. Also place the goo towers spread apart to slow them down.

Early on drop a middle launcher along the aircraft flight path, then lightning generators later in the round.
I have the same "small text" issue with the high scores screen - this is probably the reason this game isn't "approved" for tablets.

You think its unplayable? Its perfectly playable when you have the phone running 1ghz or higher...the sound is just distorted sometimes. I think they have a pretty good beta. I want someone to finih it.
That being said, the n64 used too many buttons simultaneously to work good on a phone imo...

I think the older versions are playable actually i do play them some. For the current version in the market every game I have tried to play has had completely broken sound. The most typical problem is the it either slows waay down or hangs completely. With no sound the nostalgia feel is easily cut in half for me so i usually just sigh and say whats the point and do something else.

if so, try downloading it to your SD Card and install from there through your phone.
Thanks for your help! I got it to work after messing with it a bit (and uninstalling like all of the games I had on my phone...)
You're the man! Thanks for the linkage. Installed and I'm working through it again. They definitely did a ton of cleanup between final release and the beta version.
Now, does anybody have a link or apk for reckless racing ?

if you intend on playing it for long periods, go to settings and turn off your internet/data connection before.. it stops the ads from appearing and *almost completely* reduces the lag.

I don't think it takes advantage of dual-core processors yet though, nor does it seem to be tablet optimized. Since it just got released its probably not very optimized at all, but hey it works!

To get it to launch you have to put the xoom in portrait mode, then launch the app. It wont launch in landscape mode...lol
I'd be tempted to buy and backup just in case it gets removed from the market or something, and to support the dev's work on getting it optimized. But $6 is way too steep for a app before anyone's reporting it being playable yet.
Version 1.1.4, the latest at the moment I believe, launches on mine in portrait only also, but games are so slow.
In pokemon soulsilver, it took 5 minutes to get the character to take 3 steps left to walk downstairs from his room.
Also not keen about switching between buttons and touch screen all the time, but this is minor compared to the games running at a glacial pace.
But, ya, it is new and I'm sure the dev can squeeze a lot more out of it.
I cant seem to use the touchscreen when playing this...are you guys having issues with the touchscreen as well?
-.- tap the button on the top left and the touchscreen will be available to be used.

I'm aware that the game compatibility thread covers emulation.
But I thought I'd make a thread to specifically discuss playstation emulation.
I downloaded psx4droid 3.0.0 from the dev site, but it doesn't work on my Xoom, just closes when I open an iso, and says running in the task bar. But doesn't do anything. If you click on it, it closes.
A google search says that 3.0.1 is available, but their site seems to be down at the moment.
I tried FPse, with changing the settings. It worked. But the set to small screen doesn't stick. Have to reset it each time.
And I can't get the wii controller to work with it.
Anyone have any luck?
Found a download for psx4droid 3.0.1 from an alternate source, because zodttd still seems to be down. And the problem is the same. Assign a bios file, have 2 different ones, and then launch an iso or bin file and the app closes and a message comes up in the task bar at the bottom, if you click on it, it brings you back to iso selection.
Well im glad I'm not the only one.. thought maybe it was a bad game file
Yea, this is going to be hard for zodttd because he even stated himself on his site that he doesn't have the new latest android devices so he is doing the best he can with what he has...which to be honest I am amazed he is even still working on it after it got taken off the market.
Oh, and p.s. his site seems to be back up for now: http://www.zodttd.com/wp/
I use FPSE. In landscape, full screen with screen filtering and the enhanced sound emulation at 0 frameskip I play Mortal kombat mythologies, trilogy, and castlevania symphony of the night at full speed no problem. overclocked 1.5 ghz.
I've also got the same problem with psx4droid. I'm gonna try fpse right now.

All you have to do with FPSE and the screen size issue is tab out and tab right back in. It is a minor bug that the developer will hopefully address soon.
You will only have to do this once when loading the emulator.
Also make sure you have HLE mode disabled if you are intending to use the emulator with a proper BIOS.
FPSE isn't as polished overall as psx4droid, but I have found it to handle games a little better. I couldn't get past the first Quistis cutscene of FF8 with psx4droid but maybe this has been corrected now.
I have both psx4droid(only rom tested was metal gear solid) and fpse working on my xoom. I disabled compatibility in spare parts if that may affect it.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
FPse for Android is a really solid Playstation Emulator. Its a paint to get started since the Roms arn't 4MB like N64 and Snes . But once you get through that its very enjoyable.
I also use FPse with the wiimote controller.
Makesure you set the wiimote to the active input keyboard, or it wont work in fpse.
Just checked the site and they've released 3.0.5. It specifically states it's compatible with the Xoom. I installed it and i'm trying it out now.
Yeah...still doesn't work...
fpse doesn't work for me at all...any attempt to disable HLE mode just results in a force close for the next action I attempt, and games won't run with it on either, so I'm kinda stuck. Does this happen to anyone else? I'm running fpse v0.10.39.
Edit: Actually, nevermind. I updated to 10.41 and it's great now, but I can't get that custom overlay working. What am I doing wrong...
Looks like I'm grabbing a classic controller and loading up some metal gear solid for my lunch breaks ha

i'm not too sure about the resolution. You can turn on graphics filtering but tends to lag the crap out of some games. I think it mostly looks the way it should though. PS1 games were very jaggy, even the sprite based ones.
Maybe it's just a Rose tinted view of the past which is making me remember better graphics in wipeout? Man I must have spent a whole year of uni playing that damn game!!
