NFS Shift was my first love as far as gaming on SGS goes.
Asphalt 6 is bigger though, IMO. More to do.
Spider-Man: Total Mayhem HD - Have heard good things about it.
Haven't played many...

Angry Birds (no surprises)
Fruit Ninja

That says nothing about it being the best for gaming. Just because you have more titles doesn't mean your better. I rate things on quality not quantity. You could have 100 ****ty games and 1 good one. Does that make you better just because you have more even though the majority of them are complete ****. No it doesn't, point proven.
P.S. I'm not saying most of the games for the vibrant suck, I'm just making a point that's all.

How are our phones the best for gaming on the android platform in the us ? What about the tablets and all the phones with dual core and the tegra2. I'm sorry but I completely disagree with our phone being the best for gaming on the android platform in the US. I will say however that I have never owned a better phone and with the release of the official CM7 I fell in love with my phone all over again.

hey hey slow down speed racer! You really don't have to start that, even if the vibrant is only a single core, it's still one of the best for gaming.

Modern Combat 2 and Starfront collision are the only games i play on my vibrant. Good graphics and awesome multiplayer. Runs smooth on the vibrant with cm7.

The OP is about sharing games that people love on Vibrant or love to play. If you have a problem with gaming on Vibrant, you can start another thread complaining about it.
Back to the OP, Robotek is pretty cool. I've heard that there will be a point in game when I need to spend money to charge it up. But I've yet to reach that point and it's been really fun so far.
Blockfall
is crazy addictive to me... created by another XDA user. Kinda like Angry Birds, but more physics based and simple graphics... nothing to show off, just fun.
Bocce
Another simple game, really good/fun though, graphics look good to me.
Chalk Ball
My fav game. I play it all the time.
Cordy
love the graphics, dont play it much though
Plants vs. Zombies
This game owes me a lot of my life back. Crazy addictive. Stops playing at 5% battery.
Doodle Bowling
Used to play it all the time... still get caught up in it. Really fun, best bowling game I've tried.
Anymore? And s15 you must love physic games.

Who stole my Tegra?

So I read that Demolition Inc is on sale for. 99cents:
Demolition Inc. THD is on sale for 75% off http://www.tegrazone.com/news/demoincsale
I go to buy it, and Google Play says my RAZR isn't compatible... I go to Tegra Zone, and it says it can't find a Tegra chip... WTH?!
I'm on the OG ICS leak (not 84 or 85) and I've purchased other Tegra specific games before... I don't get it... I wanna blow some s#!t up, but apparently my processor was swapped out for a lesser chip while I was sleeping?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
It has a TI OMAP. No Tegra.
So if the game really needs either the processor specifically or the GPU in a Tegra, no dice. Chances are it need the GPU which is not in the OMAP.
If it were just the processor, it would work.
I Googled 'DROID razr graphics processor' and came up with this:
"The Droid Razr runs the TI OMAP 4430 chipset coupled with a PowerVR SGX540 graphics processing unit (GPU)"
No mention of tegra.

SECOND LIFE & OPEN SIM IN FULL 3D (android only)

Lumiya app is a new Second Life app on Google play. The difference between this app and previous SL clients is that it provides complete 3d graphical immersion. I was skeptical since SL is a NOTORIOUS GRAPHICS HOG. But the app was only about $3.00, the reviews were impressive, and I wanted to stress test this big ole gnotes cpus and ginormous screen. The short - it works. The gnote chewed up the graphics without so much as a sputter. I'm not saying that you should run out and buy the app. It still has bugs, for example, I was unable to move my avatar through the scene during my initial test. That said, the developer seems to be very active and given the software miracle accomplished so far I consider the $3.00 well spent... So if you feel like puttering around SL on your gnote or you just want to feed your Iphone friends growing since of inferiority (I guess the ios platform isn't yet "fragmented" enough for non apple innovation ) then check it out.
*Hey I'm just joking about the ios thing, I mean it is true; thats what makes it funny, but that doesn't mean it's okay to kick an iphanatic when he's down; it's just not cool.

Agreed, assuming the "?" was short for "people still play Second Life?"
That's probably a reasonable assumption, with regards to the "?"
But, I can say, it makes a great talking point when discussing phone capabilities with either blackberry or ios users. You see, they don't know they don't want SL, all they know is that they can't have it.
All joking aside, what I find impressive is that I can run "gaming" software on my...android phone, that will choke and kill an old Laptop from just a few years back.
I enjoy synthetic benchmarks as much as anyone. But this is a (however limited) real world application that tells the tale of how far this tech has come.

Apps like CS Portable?

I freaking love this game!!! But I was wondering if there were any games like this available for our Android phones. And if possible, any that don't require as much hardware as my phone has so that my co-worker can play on his Motorola Cliq? lol
For a cliq? No. See my sig, I've owned a cliq, but fps games like that need multitouch, and without it he's going to have to stop whenever he wants to shoot.
I also have to give praise to studio onmars for making such a great game that requires little hardware. There are no games like this that can be limited to a adreno 130 gpu and still run fine.
Sorry

Oh no no no, I would also like to find games that will work for my Samsung Galaxy SIII. I was just saying that I'd also like some that would work for the Cliq, but since you said that it doesn't support multi-touch...I doubt we'll find anything else similar to CS.

Ahhh. In that case, you definitely want to try out NOVA 3 for a sci-fi type shooter (much like halo) and Modern Combat 3 for a call of duty modern warfare 3 clone. Both require over 1 GB of storage though and cost $7 each. Amazing games though. (Worth every penny but $7 is high for an app. Your choice)

That's so funny because I was just about to mention Modern Combat 3. I've played N.O.V.A. before and have it for my Vita. Thank you! Those are great games to add to anyone's list.

Xperia Sola for Gaming

I'm planning to buy a new device this holiday. My first pick is the iPod Touch 5th gen with A5 chip (SGX543 MP2). Same with the current iPhone 4S but without the phone function. Then I search for an android phone under $350 and I saw this. I search all available benchmarks and it says that the iPhone 4S SGX543 MP2 is better than the Galaxy S2 Mali-400MP and Xperia Sola with Mali-400 is almost half slower than GS2
so iP4s > GS2 > XPSola.
The new iPod touch is scheduled for release this week so I'll more reviews.
Go for Ipod bro. iOS games are released way before Android. The PowerVR smokes Mali too!

+1. IOS is too proprietary.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
I'd say go for the SGS2 if you're looking for a choice that's been proven by many, and go for the sola if you're looking for a nicer one to fit on your hands (plus you can use it with a glove)
i won't recommend the iOS if you're looking for something that you can modify freely
Come on people, he wants to play games. The best choice for gaming is iPod

Ipod touch without a doubt.
And get a Nokia 1100 for Phone purpose for 10$ lol.
Well, I suggest you buy a PS3/PSvita/XBOX instead for gaming, not many good games are released frequently for Mobile platforms..only a limited choice...while as complete opposite for Consoles
I'm suffering now because I bought Galaxy S2 instead of Xbox Elite months back only for gaming and there ain't many :banghead:

Wow thank you for all the replies! I didn't expect to have this many replies :victory:
SGS2 is great but its around $450 here in our country. I want to try the Android platform because it is open for tweaks and customization but with my money I can't buy a powerful phone with it (e.g GNexus / GS2).
And one more thing. Is there a way to download paid apps for FREE? Because I have an iPT4 jailbroken last year and I can download all apps for free via Installous app. Is it similar to Android? Do I have to root it to be able to install the cracked games?

I'm looking for an all in one portable device, PSVita is great but I don't like its features and ecosystem. I also don't need consoles because I have my laptop for games
Go for ipod touch..
cz i've try when i want to play a game in my droid, it's not smooth like ipod touch 3rd did.
it's 3rd bro.
i don't know what happen in that game if we use ipod 5th.
If you want a device strictly for gaming then I'd suggest you to wait until iPad Mini.
