[Q] Multiplayer games over 3g - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im finally starting to see some decent real time multiplayer games such as Guerrilla Bob and Last Stand, but they are both only playable on the same wifi network...
Is this an Android limitation, cell phone limitation, etc....
Is there any reason these games arent playable over 3G/4G?
thanx
Danny
and let me know if there are some good multiplayer shooter games that are playable over 3G

Star Legends. There's another great multiplayer game (although it's not a shooter game i'll still say it) which is Pocket Legends. Both of these are playable over 3g/4g/wifi. For you question - no, its not an android/cellular limitation (or else the 2 games i stated wouldn't be playable over 3g/4g either). Games which are generally not playable over 3g/4g were just not made to be able to. The developer maybe wants you to save your money (so you don't have a huge bill each month), or they just didn't want to allow it for some reason.

Monkey Poop Fling is multiplayer and can be played over WiFi or 3g.

Speaking of iPhones, what games can you play on the Android and iPhone cooperatively, such as Nova?

Sadly you can't play Nova in co-op. It's just a quake style you vs. them kinda deal. It's still pretty fun tho!

http://www.gameloft.com/android-games/top/ GameLoft is a significant developer for iDevice's games. They started porting some of them over but not offered on the Android market. Offered on their own "market."
Also you should either alphabetically list them or somewhere in the thread mention that: the listings of these games does not stand for ANY ranking of any sort. Otherwise some people might mistake that the #1 suggested game is on the very top.
alchemy is a pretty cool game
but.... HANDS DOWN--- Kwaak 3 Arena is the best thing to show off our phones.. Map props to Andershizzle for his hard work on this... its in the development section...
Thanks for the suggestions guys, keep em coming.
EDIT: Nevermind, already in the list, i missed it.
Let's Golf is one of the best games I've played on any handheld, ever.

I like Crystallight Defense. It's a tower defense game. I think it looks a lot better than Robo Defense and I'm surprised it's not on the top free list.
I also want to submit a preemptive nomination for Angry Birds. I can't wait for that to be released.

Crystallight Defense is a hybrid has a "trial" and paid version so its not 100.00% "free" game. Looks good though, will definitely give this a try.

Yeah Hungry Shark is good. The controls should be better though.

Were you able to get Need for speed full game, I do think it is really good, but want the full game, and when i try to get the full version it tells me i must be on the Verizon network to get it, well it being a vibrant im on tmobile, so does anyone have a fix for this? or a link to a fix?
How did you get Gangstar working?

GameLoft Games
The mobile GameLoft games are really all ive tried yet. They have quite a few games in 3D. Perhaps more than what is officaly supported for your phone, but i did a little trick to get the ones that work but arnt 100% stable i guess.
Logging ito the mobile store with your 3G or 4G network, it recognises your device, and will list im assuming whats considered stable games you can download. For me that was a bunch of 3D games, but there was a few 3D missing that i read online others could get. Switching from my 4G network to wifi, and closing out the mobile Gameloft store and re opening it in my browser, would remove my device from the web address and now its listed around 3-5 more games, 2 being 3D. trying to pay for them over wifi worked, had to use a alt methoed instead of my phone bill, i used paypal, but they wouldnt install for some reason. So i paid for the games, turned wifi back off, logged back into the mobile Gameloft with my 4G, clciked on purchase history and there were the new games, which now downloaded no problem. They work, but i have seen one crash on the logo screen once, so maybe not 100% stable yet. I have a rogers evo 3d gsm btw.
Parallel kingdom is an awesome game,
Go download it and enter rpuvv as a referral code and we both get some stuff.

[Q] Gameloft Games on Rezound

Hi, long time reader, first time poster.. Had a question for fellow Rezound owners...
Is anyone having issues with gameloft games, even the hd ones? They load and videos are full screen but when goes into actual game its about a third of the screen and all the buttons dont match where you have to touch the screen for them to respond. I also had this issue attempting to play the Quake 3 Arena port.Am I wrong in guessing we are just gonna have to wait for devs to patch games for the newer hi-res phones? Thanks in advance.
not sure on those, but I have Samurai II: Vengeance and ShadowGun which are also HD games and they play fine. although they do manage to make the phone run hot and slowly drain the battery while its charging... õ_Ô
Thanks for the quick reply. Went and tried both those games, they look fantastic! But I see what you mean, the phone warms up considerably, I am hesitant to keep playing those games, how much heat can it withstand I wonder.
As long as the phone is only hot when playing games, it is fine. If the phone's heat isn't hurting your hands, then it is fine.
Yeah i noticed that some games won't download the extra content and some like Splinter Cell don't have any buttons at all.
hmmm... if we could somehow keep dry ice close to the back of the phone. ó_ó
If it is a game that says optimized for tablets, I would assume it should work with our phone. If tablets are not supported, you are probably going to have scaling issues. I could be wrong.
It seems Gameloft games are out until they optimize them for the the higher resolution then, too bad, they are putting out some great looking games. Do any of you Rezound owners have any other game recommendations. Samurai II and Shadowrun are amazing, does anyone know any other compatible great games? Thanks in advance.
I don't play games, but I did play the NFS demo which was pretty cool.
Scrabble on Rezound
The Scrabble that EA makes for Android sure gets screwed up on the Rezound. It can't handle the 1280x720 it would seem, so you get a tiny little game in the upper left of the screen and a bunch of crap everywhere else. It's just barely playable in the tiny upper-left corner.

Emulated games that you actually DO play

Hi everyone,
As most of you know there are emulators for most of the older gaming platforms out there for Android, for example NES, SNES, N64, Amiga etc. Alot of games on these platforms work really good on Android, but the controllers are often so bad that you cant be arsed to play it anyways.
Are there any emulated games that you actually DO play, and if so, which ones? I am eager to play some old console games on my phone but I have a hard time finding games that are actually playable and enjoyable with a touch screen controller.
(I got a Galaxy Nexus. Can't wait for a working version of GTA3!)
N64 is good. Goldeneye and Mario Kart work well on my Rezound. I also play backyard baseball sometimes with SCUMM VM
Castlevania symphony of the night with FPSE runs nice on my thunderbolt with onscreen controls but its perfect with a ps3 controller.
Anyone have Tyson Punchout?
Castlevania Aria of Shadows
Pokemon Emerald
On my poor little Wildfire they run well
Thanks for the tips. I am currently playing full throttle in ScummVM and can recommend it strongly. Also games like Broken Sword 1&2, Monkey Island 1-3 and Day of the tentacle seems very entertaining and easy to control due to the point-and-click system.
Any SNES turn based rpg. No need for more than 2 inputs at a time.

Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre, Vandal Hearts 2. All are PSX games and all play very well on my LG Thrill.
