What attracts you to the games for smartphones - Off-topic

Every developer wants to create the best game.
What is the secret to implement this? What causes you to immediately download and install on your smartphone a new game?

A good in-game story. Most games are repetative, hollow and have a story that can be told in less than three sentences. Very, very dull.

A good story-line, epic(hard to define it), innovative, NO "PAID TO UNLOCK MORE LEVEL", Single player + Multi-player
The main point is innovative, creative and new.
There are so many "same game" with different names.
OR
Some memories from our childhood!

Simple stuff that has a resolution...
You know something that you can actually beat and win then move to a different game.

Multiplayer modes!

Depends on what I feel like playing at that time.
A good survival horror sounds good right now.
Or something along the lines of the legacy of kain games, mainly soul reaver.
But the controls have to be rock solid, but for me I mostly hate touch screen controlls... thats why I always pair my dualshock 3

I like something that stands out as different and having a style all of its own. Two games that immediately spring to mind are Machinarium and Limbo.
Most games can be categorised too easily so for me they need something individual about them or they're just too generic.

Yeah, that's lovely. Very similar to Flow on the PS3, and I was addicted to that when it first came out. Flower was also very addictive, but neither of them are available on any mobile platform.

Do crosswords and sudoku count as games? Because I don't really like to play smartphone games in general.

Varied, simple and nice graphics. Nice graphics doesn't mean high quality but rather smooth objects and backgrounds etc. I hate those games that look like a nes game...
Also good music is something that a good game must have. That's a part of the addiction.

Thread cleaned and bicker-free. Can we keep it that way?

It should be a FPS game like Modern combat

istana and
clever simple games that are addictive and fun to play. If they make use of touchscreen phone capabilities in new ways, even better!

I like games that branch from games I used to play back in the day before I got older and fps controlled the gaming land.
But the basically any real zombie game is a must for me. Real not like cartoon plant vs zombie.

Where do you guys get yours from.
Thnx
I use emulator plus and rom gripper+++

I have also found that the more system intensive games tent to crash after extended play.
If you turn the max skip rate up from 2 to 10 the sound plays smooth but the game jumps more.
I presume with more optimization it will become faster and more stable.
What is the control system like. I usually find emulated console games a little bit hard to play with a touchscreen due to a lack of proper haptic feedback and the fact your fingers get in the way of the screen a bit.

Good multiplayer android games.

Finally I have friends who I converted to android. He is pretty excited and wants to play alot of games with me. What can we play?
Well... What device you and your friend have?
How about Dungeon Defenders: First Wave, its REALLY REALLY good.
EA, Need for speed shift is great...
Live Holdem Poker, If you like free on line gambling
words with friends... except its not too hot on androids lol
Dungeon Hunters 2, up to 4 player.
Some fun inclusive ;P
gameloft games like modern combat black pegasus, Nova. Also Guerrilla bob, glow hockey. will look into some more for ya
Without a doubt Dungeon Defenders IF both of you have phones that are good enough.
just looked into a few. raging thunder 2 good arcade online multiplayer game. asphalt 5 and Home run battle 3d hope this helped.
Crysis
Seriously though, wordfeud is the only one i know
EDIT: Somewhere in the Android apps section, one of our very own devs has made a wordfeud style game based on Anagrams that you play against other people. Looks good!
crusade of destiny is a fun one.

PS2.
We'll see where the PS3 finishes (which I love) but as it stands, the PS2 was the most amazing console. EVAR. The original PS is a short way behind, also, due to the amazing games. I have no doubt that, at the end of its times, the PS3 can reign supreme ... but as a whole, it is not there yet.
We need more MGS games!!!!
If we're including past hardware as well as the current generation, my vote would have to go to the Dreamcast. Great hardware, fantastic software. Died an untimely death.
After the Dreamcast, comes the PC, followed by the 360. The PS3 has had some pretty cool titles, but nothing has interested me enough to go out and buy a PS3 - especially after they removed the PS2 compatibility!

Mini Motor ??
hi, i tried installing Mini Motor racing but all i get is a white screen but with the game sound playing in the background. Am i supposed to tweak some settings for this game? I'm on Jellytime ROM.. .
back to topic, i like Subway surfer. graphics and color looks amazing! :good:
Easily Inotia 4!
batman, asphalt 7, temple run..
Shadowgun runs quite well. Then there is mine craft pocket ed. (Honestly I failed to see the fascination with this game until I played it on my phone) every mmo I have tried runs flawlessly. In fact I am yet to find a game that the dhd has issues with. But I guess its all about what ROM you use and how clean you keep your resources etc. Many years of getting my old PC's to run new 3d engines has taught me that tweaks and keeping your software as lite as possible is almost more important than the hardware itself.
