The Entertainment Pack seems to have come pre-loaded on my Australian Tablet S, some of it asked to be updated the first time I connected to the Market.

this is very good for these program 100 from the ipad 2 had them and if they are very good

Sorry for the delay guys! Here is the email I recieved from the sony store... heres the link also.

What do you guys think? Did anyone get the 5 free psstore games?

I went to the sony store in NYC where I got my tablet and returned it for the 32 gig. Got my free cradle. They had no way of giving me 5 free games. They called customer service and no one had a clue.

I think it's when you order the tablet online.

So basically if you were an early adopter, you got burned. It's only been out for 2 months.

Im still not clear, on the sony store site on the 16gb tab pag, in the footnotes it says (along with about 12 others)
" 13. Download the PlayStation Store App, register and enjoy classic PlayStation® titles loaded automatically in your account. Tiles will appear in automatically in two phases into the registered playstation account, 3 game tiles will appear 11-21-11 to 12-19-11 additional 2 game titles available after 12-19-11. Offer valid until 1-31-12."
but im not sure if thats only if you purchase it from that page, or if you purchase the tablet period. I am going to wait about a week and then try to email someone at sony if I havent gotten an email or the games in my account. I am sure if asked they would say if purchzsed at that page.
On the circuitcity page wher I ordered mine, the closest thing to that was
Sony Entertainment Pack
Pre-loaded Crash Bandicoot & Pinball Heroes games
Free 6 month basic membership to Music Unlimited
Free movie download from Video Unlimited
Free eBook download from Reader™ Store
Only Android Tablet with free full-length Movies and TV Shows from Crackle
Only Android Tablet with foursquare Android™ App
The 2 games were Installed and work fine, mine also came with a 25$ gift card to the ereader store. I did register so maybe I will get an email about the other offers on their site.

Onlive Gaming (Free- Not the Viewer)

Sup ppls,
Remember when the Flyer/View was supposed to have a cool online gaming service, and all we got was an app to view it... Well till 2days ago that's all we had a boring app to view a gaming site,now we have been blessed with the actual gaming app from Onlive... about time. Several smartphones including the EVO3D have been blessed with the ability to play online.
If your looking for more gaming then this is the app to peep out, with more than hundreds of known game titles from Xbox, PS, and Nintendo games plus more for than a hand full to endulge in. The app is free, several free games, free trials (30mins) and purchasing games from 1$ up 59$.. when you purchase a game you'll be able to play it on compatible smartphones, your pc/mac, and tablets via WiFi or internet access.
I played a game or 2, great graphics clear and functionality was smooth.. it does stream nicely over WiFi and not bad over 3G (Sprint View). So go get the app for free in the market, link below with screenshots. You can also invite friends to have multiplayer abilities, so sign up and feel free to add me.. my username? Godzson of course "Game On"
(Screenshots from EvoView)
Sign up or login

Tried to do some game screenshots but did not work, if u so post em and share games worth playing, purchasing and please keep it clean..
Well what are you waiting for... Game On!

Apk File Thanks to mcord11758
http://mediafire.com/file/lno5vblivyho5ro/com.onlive.client-1.apk
Thanks for the heads up... very cool
FYI not all of the games are touch enabled. Be careful if you are touch (mobile) gaming only. They do have a universal wireless controller but that kind of defeats the point of mobile gaming to me.

[Q] Playstation Store Update?

Recently, I decided to go on the Playstation Store, through my Tablet S. Turns out, there was an update. Simple enough to install... However, there weren't any noticeable changes to the store itself. I downloaded the games MediEvil and Jet Moto again, seeing how I used to love those games, and I did download them whilist they were free. I had to get rid of them, cause there wasn't enough storage space on my 16GB Tablet. After reinstalling them and everything, the UI was noticeably... Smaller. The buttons in the menus no longer took up the entire screen, and although I may be wrong, I think the Graphics are slightly improved. Text in games seemed less pixelated....
These changes haven't done anything to Pinball Heroes, or Crash Bandicoot.
Anyone here know if there are going to be more games added, or improvements to the emulator?
i guess Sony is the only one who can give u the answer pal. i do not think the Playstation Store app will improve the games or emulator.
It would be so nice if I could comment but as the flaming sony store app for the tablet doesn't work in Ireland I can't
psssst.....

Sony S1 App Essentials

Alright, so I took the plunge and have this bad boy arriving to my doorstep tomorrow. I certainly plan to spend some time playing with this all night and downloading anything and everything. I just wanted to see what people found as really helpful apps that show off their tablet, and/or really helped boost the utility of the tablet.
I don't care whether the apps are games, tools, widgets, etc.
What are you addicted to on your tablet the most?
I know with my hobbled Evo 4G I'm excited to give Draw Something and TempleRun a go without it resetting my old Sense launcher every 10 minutes. But beyond that, I haven't really looked into any tablet specific apps.
And besides Play apps, are there any built in Sony specific add-ons that really surprised you more than you expected (IR, Qriocity, etc.)?
Favorites are;
Game- Reckless Racing 2
Widget- PWS( Wunderground Personal Weather Station)
App- Torque
I mainly use my tablet for reading, so my favorite apps are:
- Amazon Kindle, absolutely love it, its better than apple's iBook in every way
- Perfect Viewer, I think its one of the best manga viewers on Android

Sony Reader vs Kindle vs Nook vs Google Play Books
How do they shake out in your mind?
Didn't quite know how to best approach each one. Just read through The Hunger Games on the stock Sony Reader app. Was about to download the other apps for comparison.
PS I love reading on this baby though. Just feels good.
I haven't tried the Sony Reader app yet, I mainly use Nook and the Kindle app. I think the Kindle app is better designed and works better but it is easier to sideload epub books into the Nook app.
Nook: sideloaded epub files, free book giveaway every friday
Amazon: use it mostly to read ebooks checked out from libraries. Works great.

I haven't actually tried the Sony Reader, I have most of my library on Kindle already so I just went with Kindle.
Media:
-Sony's pre-loaded Remote Control app is great. I use it in the living room all the time and hardly touch my remotes anymore.
-Plasma Sound HD (Free) is a very fun music app that makes good use of the tablet screen size
-Adobe Photoshop Touch ($10) is a great portable substitute for the real Photoshop application. $10 seems a bit steep for an app, but you'll never need any other photo editing apps.
-Gmote 2.0 (Free) is a great app that allows you to browse for files on your computer and open them on your computer or on the tablet. It also has a touchpad mouse built in. Very handy if you have a PC hooked up in a living room.
-Amazon Kindle (Free) has been the smoothest e-reading experience for me, by miles. I'll second that Perfect Viewer (Free) is great for comics and manga.
Utility:
-If rooted, AdFree Android is a great adblocker that vastly improves browsing speed on the stock browser.
-ADWLauncher EX ($3.32) is the best alternative launcher I've found so far, though the recently released GO Launcher HD could give it a run for its money if they add more customization options.
-HD Widgets ($1.99) is my personal favorite for adding a digital clock, switches and weather status to your home screen.
-If you have a Wii, Wiimote Controller (Free) is a nice little app that allows you to sync your bluetooth Wii remote to your device. It's great for using with emulators.
Games:
-ChuChu Rocket
-Dead Space
-Draw Something
-Grand Theft Auto III
-Scramble with Friends (obscenely addictive)
-Shadowgun

Thanks for you
Apps:
>Documents to go -loading up a full word document with pictures is pretty snazzy
>File Manager HD - nice file browser for tablets
>MX video player, or double twist. Both good but I go MX.
>Winamp for music
>Volume+ FREE is nifty as - compresses all outputs so that they all stay in the upper range of loudness, and as such gives the effect of turn up the volume.
>My bank has an awesome net banking app for tablets also that is very intuitive, maybe yours might too
Games:
>(whoops just saw hogaburger posted this one allready) ShadowGun - a pretty impressive gears of war clone that looks and plays great on the sony tablet s. Also supports mapping controls to a ps3 controller/gamepad
GTA3> Plays and looks great, also natively supports the ps3 controller but I'm sure you could reconfigure the controls if needed.
>ZEN Pinball THD. It's simply amazing, if you like pinball I don't think you'll find a better app on the play store.
I also recommend getting Slide me marketplace installed (3rd party market). Then you can get some amazing emulators that used to be at premium price on the android market (and were/are the finest emulators around) for free . ie snesoid, nesoid, gbcoid, etc etc. The only one he seems to be charging for is N64oid. Pity cause I bought that back inthe day and now it's gone .
And the fun really starts if you decide to go ahead and root the tablet. Then all the games from gameloft become available to you if you edit your build.prop
Stock sony apps you say? Crash bandicoot is definately the best one . The rest suck in my opinion. Some would argue that the IR remotes awesome, I just find it tedious. Or that the sony music player sounds great, but I think the tablet itself sounds bad anyway so whats the difference really. Plus you gotta jump through hoops to get your SD card music to show up in it. (need root).
Oh. I do like the stock launcher and keyboard. If you don't mess with them too much, they work pretty good.

It's really cool that GTA 3 supports a controller input! I'll have to check that out now.
And that the Slide me marketplace sounds really nifty. I guess I'll have to get that micro to mini USB dongle thing to plug in a gamepad and really unlock the emulator abilities of the tablet!
I HATE how little Sony's PSN games offer. With everything they've collected from me, I refuse to buy MediEvil and such twice. My account info should all be able to transfer over and unlock that.
Thank you all for this great list. My Tablet S should be here tomorrow, I hate that I will be at various appointments all day before I could get my hands on it.
I'm a little disappointed it does not interact more with the PS3, but I have my fingers cross that with the ICS update this matter will be address.
I'm still on the fence on if I should root or not.
Got my Sony tablet S, and after playing with it for about 5 hours last night, this thing is great! This is my first tablet so really nothing to compare it to.
My wife which has a Kindle keyboard is loving this tablet, she loves the bigger screen, the fact that she can read in the dark without a desk lamp, and most of all the shape.
So now i'm in the market for a second tablet as soon as may 1st, I will wait and see if Google comes with something like the rumors says, or maybe one of the new samsung, or the prime.
Thanks again for the list.

+1 for that
Sony isn't really doing his best I mean which PSone games do you have other then the silly ones available right now
These games I would like to see in the PS store:
1. Command and Conquer
2. C&C Red Alert 1
3. A Bugs Life
4. Ape Escape
5. Tomb Raider
6. Rayman
These games are already much more "Liked" then the simple games on ps store and still, Nothing more then just a couple of dumb old games..
And they need a controller or it is not playable except rayman.
Example: Fpse doesn't support ps3 Controller
Fancy widgets for a very nice HTC style clock and weather
for me,
Best Apps:
iTap Mobile RDP - a fantastic remote desktop app which uses requires no 3rd Party App to be installed on the pc. I use it at home and at work, and has gesture recognition.
Price: About $12
Mindjet - formally 'Thinking Space Pro', a paid for app, this is now owned by MindJet (who I think make enterprise level versions of the software) as a free app. Makes a great tool for at work.
Price: free
Best Games:
Sim City - Surprisingly good graphics and gameplay, though takes a little getting used to the controls.
Price: Can't remember, but about $4 iirc
Train Crisis HD - just a fun puzzle type game
Price: Approx $1
(sorry, wouldn't let me post links)

You could find it on Windows Store under name Plane Courier. Couldn't post images or direct link to game because of forum restrictions.
I really would like to hear any feedback from you :good:
I'm still working on it Update for the game already on Windows Store, and there's a lot of changes and improvements. Feel free to give it try ! If you like it, then rate game and leave some comment on Store

Old Android Games Preservation Help?

Hi Forum,
I found my ancient Sony Ericsson Xperia Play and decided to fire it up. I'd totally forgotten that during the prime of this device I was a little obsessed with acquiring all sorts of obscure ports and games from several niche markets (mostly in Japan) and wouldn't you know it - I still had them on the device and had backups from Titanium Backup still stored on the SD. Sadly, most, if not all of these games do not run on modern Android and I'm hoping maybe some astute folks out there can decompile these things, work some magic, and repack them?
Many of these games include support for the Xperia Play controls which predates the modern usage of gamepads under Android. Alas, if this aspect could be tweaked to run on generic controls, that would up the radness!
Anyway, here's the list of booty I had on the device. I paid for each and every one of these back in the day. Some of them so rare, you might not believe it to be real! All of these have been long since abandoned by the publishers and don't exist on any storefronts anymore.
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Devil May Cry 4 - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Ghost n' Goblins: Gold Knights - Acquired from the Play Store, Android Market at the time, from Japan.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light - Acquired from the Play Store. I think a more modern updated one exists on the Play Store anyway.
N.O.V.A 2 HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Silent Hill: The Escape - Touchscreen game. Pretty sure I got this from Android Market (Play Store) from the Korea storefront.
SimCity Deluxe HD - Purchased this from EA direct. Touchscreen only.
Spider-Man: Total Mayhem HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Starfront Collision - Some shameless StarCraft rip-off I purchased from GameLoft. Touchscreen only.
Worms - Purchased direct from EA as Play Store version didn't have Xperia Play controls.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Star Battalion HD - Some game I got from GameLoft. Can't recall much about it.
Biohazard 4 / Resident Evil 4 - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
Monster Hunter - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
FIFA 10 and Madden 10 - Acquired direct from EA as their store had the Xperia Play control version.
And finally... probably the coolest one of the lot due to rarity alone (IMHO).
Ridge Racer Accelerated - This is the same game as the PSP / iOS port. I remember acquiring this was like pulling teeth at the time as only Namco's shortlived Banadroid Market in Japan had it. It was never sold on any regional front of the Play Store. The only port that existed on the Japanese Play Store was for a specific device the SH-009 or something... some stereoscopic 3D phone that had a Nintendo DS effect and that port was exclusive to the hardware. This port, however, was Android device generic. I even recall on the Xperia Play forum here on XDA years ago some members didn't think this existed and would attempt to "correct" me that the ONLY version was this SH-009 exclusive and it won't run. How wrong they always were...
The game did have two oddities. First, it would only run on Gingerbread. When I used CyanogenMod back then to jump to ICS and JB the game would boot but at the load screen it would draw some message about wrong android version (in Japanese), so this wasn't an Android OS error but some strange check by the game itself. Second, it would ask for a username and password which was used to quickly check-in with the Banadroid market. Obviously, my legit credentials don't work anymore as that market is long since dead.
Anyways, long winded crap over. Please let me know any thoughts that industrious souls amongst you might have.
PS: I'll have to dig around more but I also recall having Civilization Revolution 1 and a few other games which were acquired from the Korean storefront.
would you upload the backup files? someone can make work on newest devices
