If I'm not mistaken gta 3 for android comes out today. Has anyone tried this as although our touchpad isn't supported its perfectly capable of running it

It works, but FPS is low and graphics are bad (lower than 1024/768 resolution, no lights).
The screen size would be so awesome to play the game on, but as for now I'll just stick with a 4.3 inch screen :/.... also controller+touchpad+gta III= winning.

Yeah, i've tried GTA on 3.5. I'm not saying that it lags so much that it becames unplayable, you can play it, but in comparision to buttery-smooth, nice-looking (unlike ipad 2, all androids run this game in lower-than-native resolution) iPad 2 version, it just sucks big time. Maybe, some day Rockstar will optimise it properly...
while we are talking about this game has anyone tried a wiimote with it?

I downloaded gta 3'off the market as soon as I could find it. The game runs great for me on alpha 3 but when I updated to 3.5 it would display anything then force close. Needless to say I went back to alpha 3 and it still works great. Side note, my photon 4g running cm7 wont play the game. Thought it was odd that the photon was one of the official devices to get it...

Must be CM7, it runs fine on my stock rooted Photon.
Just got it. Its OK slight stuttering which you can feel when you drive mainly. Not sure if this is android or our alpha android. Can anyone else confirm that alpha 3.5 isn't working?

Runs fine on 3.5 for me too, XRON B2. In fact it may seem to work better than before, though I haven't had much time to test. I just wish there was a way to get the wii classic controller working, right now the best I can do is move around with the d-pad.
Plays well on my sgsii but not on my tp

Graphics in GTA3:
iPad 2 + (not sure) 4S = rendering in native resolution + lights > Tegra 2 - rendering in lower res + lights > iPhone 4, iPad 1 and all other androids - lower res + no nights.
Actually, i've just found out that there is a way to enable iPad 2 graphics on TP by using different config file. Gonna try it out.
Yeah! Nice iPad 2 graphics works just fine (lags more though) - instruction:
1. download this file: http://www.multiupload.com/92CD99LFSP
2. copy (with overwriting) archive contents to sdcard/android/data/com.rockstar.gta3/files/gta3/ on touchpad.
3. Clear data of the game through app settings (maybe, not necessary, but i did it)
4. Launch GTA3, start new game (maybe, not necessary, but i did it)
5. Enjoy nice graphics rendered in native for TP 1024/768 resolution
Running 3.5 and using CPU master to 1.6mhz and its running just fine. Been playing all night without a glitch.
No sound and only way to shut off game is to turn off touchpad
I am gonna have to buy gta 3 now I got my touch pad yesterday!
Now time to try to root/hack my first device!
I don't drink pee....
working great for me cm7 xron-ified b2. smooth... sound... lights. gonna try that cfg ipad2 file when I get home.

For those of you who have it working I have a question.. Is it REALLY worth the $4.99!? Ive been spoiled by .99c games. Honestly I doubt I purchase it just because of that. But if Im missing out and NEED to play this game could any body offer a brief explanation why? I have read about the game already but would like to hear from someone who is playing on an Atrix. Thanks ahead of time.

i bought it yesterday, but didn't play it for very long. it's a pretty fun game, and the controls were really intuitive. it's exactly how you would want to control a fps on a touch screen, left side of the screen for moving and right for camera.
the graphics were pretty amazing for a smartphone, i was impressed. and i didn't experience any sort of lag, which was even better (using the 1.0ghz enhanced kernel CM7)
i'd say it's worth the 5 dollars, i only got about half an hour into it so far and was already satisfied with my purchase. the animations are all voice acted so far, gameplay is fun, and controls are great for a touch screen.
I highly recommend this game. Well worth the $5. The controls are much better than the gameloft FPS's that I've played and the graphics are amazing. When you compare the price to a console game it's a no brainer purchase.
On the gameloft shooters they kinda auto aim for you (sorta like goldeneye on n64) but on this game once you press the fire button you can move your finger and move your aim, like having dual joysticks. Also the left joystick appears wherever you put your thumb (on the left half of the screen) eliminating the problem of your finger missing the joystick.
The cover system is easy to use and works well. It's nice to have that instead of just having to run around shooting. The enemy AI isn't as good as many console games but miles ahead of other mobile shooters. Enemies will move from cover to cover, one will stick back while the other tries to flank you, etc.
There are a few very minor glitches here and there, but it runs very well on the atrix.
Well worth it...just be ready to kiss your battery byebye

Haven't checked, but i haven't modified it, it's the one from aura 1.2.2.1 deblur aura. Might be the 3.2.0 market messes things up.
Definitely worth it,especially considering it'll get an update for multiplayer in the near future apparently (forgot where i read it but it was a legit source). And the game is great to play, it has great graphics and is very smooth and fast.

Hey all over in the photon forums I have figured out the mapping to be able to use a PS3 controller with the game. I would post a link but I am on mobile. Look in the photon themes and apps. The title is easy to see. Says Shadowgun available for tegra 2 devices. I have only tested the ps3 controller with the photon so hopefully it works for you guys too.

I'm using Aura 1.2.2.0 (just haven't made the upgrade to 1.2.2.2 yet) and had the "download is incompatible with your device" from the market, however, I was able to install via market.android.com
Also... Yesterday(?), there was an update available for the game. After installing it, the character was holding an invisible gun that shelled out little pink blocks. Apparently this was a pretty common problem. This was fixed by reinstalling the game after deleting /sdcard/Android/data/com.madfingergames.shadowgun

Sadly there is no way to make hdmi mirroring with the Atrix... Widescreen that is.
This game is great on both my Atrix and eee pad transformers. For anybody having glitches, just uninstall the game and reinstall. I had to do that on both devices afterthe update. Also for those who have an eee pad with dock, you can plug up an Xbox 360 controller and play the game like it is an Xbox 360 game, just loads faster.

I suck as FPS and I'm a sucker for eye candy, but I definitely think this is a 10/10. Very well polished game. Some FPS pros might get bored of it but I'm not good enough at the genre to make an informed decision lol
Definitely with $5 or whatever it was.
Was on engadget today and saw that rockstar is going to release GTA 3 for the following devices.
Apple iOS Devices: iPad 1 & 2, iPhone 4 & 4S, iPod touch 4th Generation
Android Phones: HTC Rezound, LG Optimus 2x, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy R, T-Mobile G2x
Android Tablets: Acer Iconia, Asus Eee Pad Transformer, Dell Streak 7, LG Optimus Pad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and 10.1, Sony Tablet S, Toshiba Thrive
Think we have a shot or not enough power?
We definitely don't have enough power because we can barely run any of the higher end games (shadowgun) I'm sure that well be able to get it running, but probably terribly. Also this game doesn't even have that great of graphics... just bad optimization

GT racing, Asphalt 6, Modern Combat 2, Sacred Odyssey all run great for me. That being said with Gameloft already having Gangstar (which runs great BTW) there isn't much need for an actual GTA. GTA3 might be worth it if there was a way to put the Real GTA mod on it.
fine, fine maybe shadowgun was a bad example but what about 9mm, riptide, fast five, dungeon defenders, etc. those don't even force you to have a dual core device... remember we're pushing 1024x600(thats 614,400) pixels of 3D on old hardware... also I'm not so sure about the definition of "it runs fine" these days. Some people seem to convince themselves that things run great when they're not (myself included)

How did you get the crosshair in the middle, the damage indication, and the dragable looking area to fill the whole screen??? I've tried tons of different versions to no avail I've even looked at your thread and used the version listed to no avail. thanks in advance
yea gangstar makes gta3 look kind of dated.
I did notice a bunch of slowdowns trying high quality games on my Nook however a second later I noticed I was running on the conservative governor and facepalmed myself.
Switched to performance governor and everything was a breeze...
One way or another, we won't know until it's released, right?
I wouldn't be surprised if it runs. The NC is a little gem. That said, how is it going to playable on a touchscreen? And... an honest question... is GTA III really that fun? I just picked it up in a steam pack and it didn't take too long for me to move onto Vice City (and then stop playing that a little while later). It'll probably be more impressive to run on a phone/tablet but it felt like an early tech demo compared to a lot of "modern" games.

The entire screen is bound to controls, take a look at the picture of it on engadget... its a little overwhelming
Touchscreen controls urgh...
I still pair a PS3 Controller via Bluetooth every time I play PS1 / N64 games on my Nook... I really hope they add Bluetooth Controller support to the game.
Yeah, having real controller support would be nice. I did see the screenshots, and it's just really hard to play games with a virtual d-pad and even just *two* buttons (to me), let alone 6 or 8, especially when it includes what are supposed to be shoulder buttons.
On a side note, I mucked around a little with the onlive app, and that suffers from the same thing (the virtual controls). That said, OnLive does have newer, more compelling games, although it requires a constant, good data connection.
Nook Color seems to me to be able to push Dreamcast level graphics at 1024x600. Most games with that level of graphics seem to run at around 20-30fps at best.
The main reason GTA3 is so much more demanding than seems reasonable is that it's a sandbox game with a large, open world. It's not all that much different than say Elder Scrolls.
Game is out now and market says it should work on the NC. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rockstar.gta3 Anyone got it to work?
It hangs Nook dead rght after intro movies. CM 7.1.0 Stable.
With chainfire nvidia plugin,screen stays black upon launching the app
soooo I take it as a no go. Darn. Well it works on my electrify but as stated earlier the controls take up way to much room. I'll try a wiimote I guess.
Anyone have any luck getting this to run? Would think it would be possible to and to control it with a PS3 controller connected via bluetooth.
Got it to work! Download GTA 3 version 1.1, use chainfire 3D and set default plugin to POWERVR, awful cellphone video below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKN9QRGq09E
EDIT: Will test more in the morning, jump to 1:00 to see 30 seconds of "gameplay" before I flip the car
why do we have to use the powervr plugin? nook color actually has a powervr gpu
I didnt need any plug in. I installed CM7 last night and gta was in "my apps" and it runs better than on my shift. Lol

According to Gizmodo in their HTC One X review, the phone had issues playing 3D games. They specifically mentioned Temple Run, and the phone not picking up certain inputs due to the CPU being overloaded or something. Sounds iffy to me, so I'm seeing if anyone is able to replicate this kind of thing with the LTEVO, thanks!

When playing Temple Run, I notice an occasional blip where it hesitates for just a moment. Enough to make you smash into a tree though if you're not careful. Doesn't happen often thought, and I can't find a pattern of when it happens.

Def not bc of lack of power I'm sure they just need to be optimized for the EVO..
If you think about it, there are only three Android phones with HD screens on the market right now. Most games are probably not yet optimized for that resolution as well. Even Apple doesn't have HD screens in their phones yet. Handset HD rendering is a rather novel feature.

I remember when I bought the OG Evo, it seemed to everyone like it was underperforming in the game department. People said it would be fixed with updates and it didn't work because of this or that, but eventually we just realized the hardware wasn't up to snuff. I don't want to make the same mistake with my next purchase, so how bad is it really? Are there any high-end games that run perfectly? How does shadowgun play?
I've played all those games on my 3d ..and they played great..so with a greatly improved CPU and a oc-d gpu its def not hardware ...the s4 is top notch..and ur not go.na have too choice since almost all high end phones coming to the US will utilize the s4

I agree but something is wrong I am having small issues with many games that ran fine on the 3d and OG. For instance just downloaded Nba Jam tonight and it studders and lags the whole time un playable. This game was running pretty good on my EVO last week.
So I agree it is not the hardware but something needs fixed. Sounds like the HD screen issue may be to blame

I will go check it out. I am not saying that it is the issue but someone mentioned it and it sounds possible that these may not be optimized for our screen yet I know when qhd was first hitting the market some apps had trouble with it. It has to be something though because there is no way this hardware cannot run apps that ran fine on my OG it just doesn't add up.
Any one get Demolition Inc working on this thing yet?
Shadowrun plays nice and smooth no issues with that game.

Possible Fix
I don't have the 4g LTE yet I am a current 3D owner. Am trying to decide between GNex and LTEvo but that's another topic...
From what I've read somewhere else (can't quote where from) the fix was to bump your minimum cpu speeds up a notch and will probably fix most/all your lag. Use Antutu or other choice program (rooted only of course) and bump your min clock speed up one or two spots and I bet you don't run into issues.
If this doesn't work then ignore...thanks!
Shadowrun plays really smooth, and I'm amazed with the graphics. Looks sweet!
I was hoping this phone would game better than my gnex but so far it's not doing what I had hoped for. GTA3 has awful audio quality and I have to turn the settings down to low and lower res and other settings to get it to play lag free. I don't think it's any better than my gnex was. I am hoping the game needs an update.
Well I'm disappointed that a lot of the best looking 3D games do not work.
Not Working:
All Gameloft games EXCEPT Order & Chaos (but it still crashes some)
Even the brand new N.O.V.A. 3 doesn't work
Mass Effect Infiltrator
Dead Space
Field Runners
Working:
GTA III
Shadowgun
Minecraft
Deer Hunter Reloaded
Galaxy on Fire 2
Gentlemen, the phone has not even officially been launched yet.
Once game devs figure it out the games will run fine on our hardware. It is fact that our phones are more powerful than the 3D or the Gnex so it just needs to be optimized. On top of that, imagine how our phones will fly on a nice aosp Rom...

With USB controller, everything else works other than shooting. Makes the game a bit hard. Is there any way to fix this? Maybe map the controls other way? The USB/BT joystick app doesn't see my controller, but it works fine in the other games.

One app, but the resolution can be turned up to 100%, other features like sorta like the GTA 3 options.
I really like it so far, brings back good memories playing this game for the PS1 back in the day! Controls work well, I didnt have to make any adjustments to them, I had to turn the brightness up a bit though in the settings. Overall, well worth the $3.00 asking price.
yeah, happy memories runs well and has built in ps3 gamepad support (bluetooth)... no sixaxis app required.

RockStar hit a home run with this game. I am very impressed with the graphics(with everything in video cut on or to the Max). Really good graphics. Looks way better than what I remember playing it back in the day. Love the story line. I forgot all about they killed his wife n child. I made it to the subway, first part then saved. Will get more into the game later tonight.
Also this game played fine, so far, on this new build I'm testing. No issues at all. Games like this, ShadowGun, & sonic 2 are the reason of love the tegra3 chipset so much. Nvidia is really smart giving us these exclusive optimized versions. It makes people want a tegra3 tablet. Tegra3 tablets are the best. Can't wait to see what tegra4 with likely keplar based gpu will bring. With games like these,I don't need a console system. Plus the games are alot cheaper
I'm now ready for Bladeslinger, that zombie fps, and any other tegra3 optimized game. I gotta have em all..lol. make sure to play this game, or any other game, with superips+ on. I have it at lowest setting usually. It makes the games, colors, details, display pop more. Its so much better with this mode on.
I've purchased all the high end games that has come out thus far but somehow I'm holding back on this one. Probably because I've already played it so many times back in the days. Everything's identical to the pc version even his face lol. Intro is exactly the same. I'm really glad though that game developers are recognizing android now and putting out high end games close to or at the same time as the ipad versions.
I don't know if you've heard but GTA San Andreas is out for Android next week (It is out for iOS now). I think I will be buying it straight away if its around ₤5 because it is my favourite GTA of all time.
How do you think it will run on our Nexus 10's? I am currently playing GTA3 on the Nexus 10 and it runs OK everything maxed. Having seen some footage from the iOS version of the game, San Andreas is heavily upgraded graphically from the PS2 days.
Any way I am so looking forward to this release. I hope it doesn't cripple the Mali t 604.
Cheers.
ok?
think you should wait for a youtube video and some reviews.
but you seem generally excited. Go for it.
Careful mate....according the XDA "mods" you are not allowed to ask a question or phrase a question of any kind in the "general" section. Better \ rephrase that title quick before they come crying.
Vice city played great on my nexus 10 so I'm going San Andreas will too. I use a ps3 controller with six axis and it works real nice since the touch screen is a bit awkward

Just says 'next week'. At least it isn't too far away
I have seen some footage from the iPad Air on You Tube and it looks laggy as hell. Not sure what is up there? Not sure if that is good or bad for us Nexus 10 er's.
Waiting with baited breath for the Android version regardless!

Well it's the first release. There should be updates making it smoother. Maybe it'll be good on the nexus 10 if they fix whatever's wrong with the iPad version so the android version won't have the same bugs. But for some reason I don't it

I have just had another scoot on You Tube for some more videos and actually it runs good on the Air. Maybe the other video I saw were the performance was so so may have been on a ipad 3 or the 2. On the iPhone 5s it looks amazing. Conversely the iPhone 4 with a single core runs garbage.
Come on Rockstar don't let me down!
On another note has anyone played 'The Room'? Downloaded it today but haven't played it much yet. It was game of the year 2012 on iOS. Looks sweet on the N10.
Anyone got it to work on the N10? Mine keeps crashing right after the loading screen...
There is a new update now. It is 1.03. What version are you running?
I think I will wait until all this madness passes. What a balls up by Rockstar releasing a GTA game that crashes on 100% of Android devices.
I will download it tomorrow.
Hopefully it runs good because I saw a video of it running on a Note 2 (Mali 400) and its was running smooth.
Cheers.

The latest update solved the issue. San Andreas is running smooth on the N10...:good:
Battery is draining really fast so I am considering buying the pogo cable now. Can I recharge the N10 via pogo pins while using a usb gamepad?
No idea sorry.

you should be able to. The charge rate will be a little slower but itll keep you playing. thats how I do it.
Hell yeah, I'm gonna ride the crap out of some mountain bikes.
Is anyone playing on omnirom? it's not working on there for me. It just brings up a blank screen. I might have to try reinstalling

I have the 1.02 version and runs smoothly. I'm playing with a thrustmaster controller and there is no major problem. The only thing I don't like is that I can't change the buttons, I wanted to set them like on Xbox.
I downloaded the game and I must say I am disappointed. If you look at the iPad Air version there is anti aliasing just like there is AA in GTA3 Android version. But SA is full of jaggies. Totally spoils the game for me. Why can't it be an option in the settings to enable this or not? I'm sure I read that the Mali t-604 does 'free' AA in its hardware. The release was a **** up as well. It is now 2.3 GB with the added on file that was needed to fix the game.
Bottom line is the game just feels rushed for Android. I feel a little ripped off after spending ₤5 on it. I should have just reinstalled it for my PC and downloaded a hi res texture pack and saved ₤5.
Please up your game Rockstar!
Using the usb xbox360 gamepad I am enjoying the game so far but I wonder how to access the map via the pad? Always having to tap the display is quite annoying... Also it seems, that it's not possible to just aim at people (not shoot them) via gamepad as well...
I'm a fan of GTA but also learned the hard way to play big_boy games on a big_boy pc
