[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.

App Review: GENSOID

I just thought I would post a review of my recently favorite app: GENSOID.
Gensoid is an Sega Genesis console emulator for Android.
I use the free version, but with the paid version you can do things like save the game state, etc. (the free version saves wherever the ROM game can save, but the paid version lets you save anywhere/anytime, which can be useful for some, but I prefer the original gameplay)
Features:
on-screen, fully-customizable controller
fast-forward option (for those slow-scrolling games)
auto-rotate capable
decent battery utilization (played 4 hours straight once on a plane, still had some battery left)
Full Sound/Mute options
Fast responding emulator
I must say I really miss playing on the Genesis, and when I saw this in the market I had to get it. So far I have played:
Phantasy Star
Phantasy Star II
Phantasy Star III
Phantasy Star IV
Sonic the Hedgehog
Master of Monsters
Herzog Zwei
ToeJam and Earl
My list to try next are:
Shadowrun
Beyond Oasis
Shining Force
Shining Force 2
Land Stalker
I have not experienced any problems with it, other than the fact that the control takes a little getting used to.
ROMs are readily available on the net. Even though all Genesis games are out of production downloading them without owning the original cart may be of questionable legality, so I won't recommend any particular method of acquiring ROMs.
Overall I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Try FPse... its a playstation emulator... currently playing chrono cross and its working flawlessly. I really like the controls too.

I will have to give that a try.
Thanks.

It runs great...Tekken 3 at 60fps on my phone...quite a sight!

Where do you get the games at?

Wrong question mate...that goes into piracy if you do not own the games to rip them so we do not talk about that stuff here.

You can see my disclaimer at the bottom:
"ROMs are readily available on the net. Even though all Genesis games are out of production downloading them without owning the original cart may be of questionable legality, so I won't recommend any particular method of acquiring ROMs"
The last thing we need is this site shut down over legal issues... no need to point to or recommend a source of ROMs, you can find them on your own (and it is pretty easy).

lol ok, talking about emulators should be piracy also, because it's the same thing. even if you own the game for a different system and make it work on a emulator is against the EULA anyways.

Not really...depends on the case and game plus that goes into a whole new territory.
Much different from just downloading a game I never paid for.

An emulator is a program. It is not written with its main purpose to be piracy. However the writer cannot be held responsible for what users do with the app.

I would think Android and AT&T would disagree, given the fact that they both give it the OK by letting it be in the market...

PSP On The Xoom - Will It Be A Part Of The PlayStation Suite?

About the PSP emulation on the Xoom... we already know it should be able to be done without a problem considering the fact that Sony announced that they are officially bringing the PS1 and PS2 library of games to our Android Tegra 2 devices via the PlayStation Suite by the end of this year. Where does that leave our PSP games? Will it be joining the crew in the Suite? I would love to know. I am currently playing the new Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy on my PSP 3000 and it rules, I love it!! Would be kinda neat to run it on the Xoom for future use. Thoughts?

I think this is an appropriate place to post. I'm not sure but I think I've seen one on the market.... anyways good idea +1

I think the best people to ask would be the developers of emulators like Snesoid, gensoid, N64oid, Fpse.
If there's anyone who can make emulators, these are the guys.

Very good point. I do have every single one of their emulators and I have quite a few of the premium paid ones too. They are a very awesome dev team and produce some top quality work. Maybe we should ask them if Sony has no plans to add in the PSP games to the Suite.

Don't know if you've seen this - http://pinoytutorial.com/techtorial...ase-for-playstation-games-on-tegra-2-devices/

I have seen it yes, but good info though. I'm really excited for the PlayStation Suite on Android! That includes the PS1 and PS2 games for sure as a fact. This I already knew. I wanna know if the PSP games will also be included in the PlayStation Suite line up. That would be pretty sweet to have all 3.. PS1, PS2, and PSP. Think about how many hardcore games Android will be gaining over iOS because of this. I'm thinking Final Fantasy. Mmmm!

Anything released by Sony for their own devices NGP/Xperia Play, that uses Android base (I don't actually know if NGP will run on Android, but it'd make sense for them to do so, since they'd get all the app support in addition to their own games), even if not released for other Androids, will likely be able to be hacked/modded to run on other devices, given the platform similarities.

PSP emulator would be awesome

I'll only care about the Playstation Suite if it carries our previous PSN purchases over.

I would hope they would. The PSN is Sony's thing. I'm almost sure that'll carry over. I highly doubt you will have to buy everything all over again considering the fact that your PSN account is linked to the PlayStation store. The store is essentially their version of the Android market in the sense that everything is linked to your email account. I wouldn't worry about that. But if for some reason they don't... that would suck.

I read somewhere that they would not carry over. It was on one of the articles last month. That and the 5 time download limit are the reasons I would never buy from the PSN.

Sony has stated that any game bought through the PSP would
not work on the android phones or service. You would need to repurchase any game you wished to play.

That's not cool man. Rebuy all games? I guess that makes sense I suppose.

N64 Emulator on Kindle

Anyone know how to fix the lag on an N64 emulator on this thing. I've read its suppose to run smooth on anything higher than a single core processor. Some forums said that you need to over clock but we don't have custom kernels yet. Maybe I downloaded the wrong emulator, can anybody help. I want to play jet force Gemini on this thing. Much appreciated.

Hello there! Despite what you may want to believe, you are still using an emulator! Emulators aren't perfect, and you may not be able to play all games properly! Hell, I myself had issues with Zelda when I tried it on my PC a few years back!
If you want the perfect emulator for N64 that can play all the games that you throw at it, then walk into a store and ask for an N64. That's your best bet.

[Q] Playstation 2 games on my Z1

Hello folks,
I've recently bought the Sony Xperia Z1 and I'm overloaded with questions, I'm trying to figure out a lot myself, but sometimes I need help A friend told me XDA was the place to be, so here I am.
As the title says, I'm wondering if there is some sort of a PS2 emulotar available, I've had the for gameboy advance etc, but now that I've gotten one of the better phones, I wondered if I could get better games aswell
I've seen people play FFX and GTA 3 and many other games. But couldn't figure out how they did it.
Any hints?
greetings

I'm not aware of any current PS2 emulator, i may be proved wrong. (google playstation emulators for android) you do have FPse for android though.
but for GTA and FFX, look in the play stores for games, you have GTA vice city and GTA.

I'm aware there are paid versions of GTA around, so maybe that was a bad example. But what about FFX? Or is that some kind of stream? I suppose it is..
ANyway, thanks for pointing it out it doesn't exist a shame though.
What are the perks of having your PS3 account sync'd with your Z1 then? I did this via sony entertainment network, but yet have to find the perks of this..
Thanks again,

do you have the playstation mobile app? if not maybe you can try this.

Syncing with Ps3 to Z1 is so that you can connect with your online Ps3 friends, or get updated with some of your online ps3 games (scores, level, etc)... there are a few apps that you can install to do that like MYNBA2k13... etc...

You can't emulate PS2 games in Z1. PS2 is a very complex console and even Snapdragon 800 can't handle it. You remember PCSX2 - A PS2 emulator for PC? It's in development stages for almost 10 years and haven't seen a final release until now. The development team behind PCSX2 claims that, PS2 is a vey complex console to emulate compared to that of PSOne as many have of the hardware features have to be emulated in real time which is currently not stable and that's why. Though being in development for 10 years, PCSX2 doesn't support ALL PS2 games (80% will work) either. From above you can guess for android. In order to emulate PS2 games in android, it needs a far more powerful processor than S800 and gigs of memory which might seem impossible as of now. Even if the hardware in our Smartphones matches PS2 in the near future, writing an emulator though is very much of a hassle and will be full of bugs rendering the emulator useless. Guess the emulator era are over for Android with PSOne, period.

Alright, thanks both for the clarifications. I'll try the app.
Cheers!
