Gameloft Games

I've seen a few videos of gameloft games like Brothers in Arms and nova running on the Galaxy S2, so I figured they should run on here our device no problem. But I tried to go onto the website and am not able to get the games. Does anyone know why or how I can purchase them?
I bought nova 2 on my inspire and when i got my gs2 I couldn't download them again and contacted their customer service and they emailed me the apk for nova 2 but Backstab def doesn't have a apk yet.

All the Gameloft games are compatible with our i777 phones.
I have em all.
You can have them all too by learning about torrrents
and how to use them.
(but this public forum is not the right place to learn about it.)

What games came preloaded on your Transformer Prime?

I'm very happy with my new TP, but don't have several of the game that the reviewers mentioned, including Davinci THD, Bladeslinger, and Shadowgun. Wondering if this was just the demo units for reviewers? Anyone else have theirs? What games came with it? What are your favorite games to play on it?
Merry Christmas!
davinci and bladeslinger were both very alpha games that were only on review units to show tegras 3 power but I do have shadowgun tegra 3 edition and a couple other games as I have to gamestop version
In Germany i got Riptide GP Demo and Glow only
The games you mentioned are not included in the gamestop version. IMO out of the five: shadowgun, Riptide, sonic, monster madness and cordy, only shadowgun n Riptide are the most fun. However I've already played them on my Acer a100. So besides the added graphics there is nothing that special with the prime version if you've played it already on other tegra 2 devices. I'm more disappointed that all the gameloft games I purchased in the market is not compatible.

Bladeslinger seems pretty good. Anyone know when it is expected to come out?

Changing the build.prop on my HP Touchpad to:
ro.product.model=GT-i9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
Allowed it to see all gameloft games in the market place and download the data. I tried this on my Prime but it doesnt seem to work...
Anyone know of a method?
I did the same thing when the apps went on sale. The crappy thing is I bought most of their games on my phone thinking I would be able to just get them in the market when I get my prime but no.
I read somewhere that you could email them and they would give you the apk's for the games you bought if you let them know your email address and your phone number. I emailed them and I'm waiting on their reply. Granted I didn't tell them its for my prime so I'll see what they say.

be careful when editing build prop. there's a guy now who his prime is in some sort of boot loop from doing the same and hasn't been able to fix it yet.
Order and Chaos wont work, the latest update broke it when i was running it on the TF101.
Previously we had to run the Xoom version of the game to get it working, but whatever they did in the update broke it
Its seriously ****e for gameloft not to support the TF. When i did some digging about on their forums, it seemed to be due to a licence problem, IE someone wanted to charge them too much to support the TF/ TFP officially.
Stupid really as im sure TF and the TFP will have a massive share in the tablet market now.

the problem is even with the APK the game does a check when it loads to see if it's compatible, i've gotten MC3 to work but other games will just tell you they aren't compatible when you load them.
it's ****ing lame of them, and i won't support them until they change their policy. ALL tegra2 compat games will work with the prime technically.
Most companies will write games to work with OpenGL ES which means they work automatically for pretty much every phone that has the hardware to support them.
Unfortunately Gameloft had it in their heads for a while that it is a good idea to write directly for each individual phone's processor instead of just creating one copy for OpenGL and being done with it. Thus massive fragmentation ensued.
Things are a little better now, they are releasing newer games directly to the market and those are generally compatible with all devices. When I got my VZW Galaxy Nexus I was very surprised to see that all my Gameloft Games installed right away without issue. (The one exception was Modern Combat 3 which was updated a week later).
I am pretty sure that the only thing keeping these games off the transformer prime is an arbitrary compatibility check. If they work on the old transformer directly from the market they should work on the prime.
Hopefully they give me the apk's, and hope they get updated to work on the prime. Seeing as this a very popular device, hopefully it won't take long. Its the only reason I bought them

maybe we should do the same like people did with Asus and bootloader. start writing them and complaining to them. that by not making their games compatible for TF/TFP devices they are missing out on a huge market share. our devices are more than capable of running their games. I have all the great gameloft games on my Ipad like Modern Combat3, Nova2, Splinter Cell conviction, and lots more. I really wish I could get them for my Prime. I think if enough TF/TFP owners complained to them then we might see the results we want pretty quickly.
Uno HD showed up on my Prime
MW3 and Asphalt 6 HD do NOT show up. which is sad. those are my fav.

Please sign the petition I started.
It's time for Gameloft to get flooded with emails and I decided on starting a petition so it's really easy for everyone to show support. Please pass this along to every forum, twitter and facebook friend you have.
change.org/petitions/gameloft-support-asus-prime-tablet[/url]
I have Dungeon Hunter 2 working on my Prime, will upload pics ASAP.
And post a tut if enough people want to know how.
i wish people that had some gameloft games working would at least explain how... telling us that you have such and such game working doesnt help anyone.
please let us know if you have gameloft games working, and if so explain how.

Not with that attitude. You're acting as if people HAVE to tell you how to do something. Not gonna butter it up bud, that's a really whiny attitude.
I have successfully gotten Dungeon Hunter 2 working, but it crashes more than it should be and I'm trying a few things.
me soo sorry, just thought it would help more if those that have gameloft games working could explain how too others.
I use this build.prop mod by crossix on my acer a100 so the market thinks I have an a500. Can someone take a look at the lines if it looks like it will work on the Prime?

With this mod I'm able to see, mc3, Asphalt 6, Nova 2, backstab, Order and Chaos with my acer a100.
I purchased most of the Gameloft games during their sale (Knowing that they don't support the prime).
So far I have working :
Modern Combat 3
Spiderman HD
Hero of Spart HD
N.O.V.A 2 HD.
Not working :
Order & chaos (Downloaded data but won't update to latest version)
Asphalt 6 (Errors out whilst downloading data)
Backstab HD (Semi works - Initial download ok, game runs flawlessly though without sound (music plays, but no sound effects). After exiting and re-running the game, you have to download 2-300mb.
Dungeon Hunter - Downloaded data and installed, FC's after intro movie.
For the working games, I simply used APK's which I believe were modified for the original Transformer (Don't think I can post links, google is your friend however)
APK's will not work, unlike dead space which I can just email my samsung epic apk to the prime, install, and download sd files to play. When the gamelot apks are sent they will install and open then check the device with the gameloft servers. They then show incompatible. You can actually see the splash screen for the game in the background but gameloft is not allowing the game to go further
anyone successfully edit build.prop yet so these games will work?

Actually there's a simple work around for getting gameloft games working on Prime without editing build.prop or adding anything. As I have the new Modern Combat3 on it and it plays very well. can even play online against others. This game looks sick on Prime display.
The work around is you have to find the matching game apk. for Acer500 or Xoom device. As those have the same screen resolution. Once you get a hold of those, install, then download extra data from online. then you good to go. that simple and plays fine. Google can be your best friend

[Q] Plants Vs Zombies Freezing after ICS update

Ok I did a search and didn't see anything on this topic.
I was wondering if anyone else is having Plants Vs Zombies freezing after the update to ICS? I bought the app from Amazon and I checked and there is no update.
Does anyone know how to fix this??
Thank you guys in advance!
I have the Amazon version of Plants vs. Zombies and i just installed it and tried playing. It seemed to lock up at 'Tap on a seed packet to pick it up!' in the starting tutorial, then I got by there and it killed it and restarted. This time it locked up a little later in the first stage, but basically the same thing. Freezes and I have to force kill.
I just did a factory reset last night and it seemed to clear up alot of my issues I'd been having since ICS, but I guess Plants vs Zombies isn't compatible (at least not the Amazon version).

Is there another version?? I didn't see anything on the Android Market?

Interestingly, it lists my Prime as incompatible... My phone is compatible though.... Amazon lets you buy things that your device is not compatible with. I got the Kindle Fire version of Asphault 6 by mistake, but luckily it was only .10 :/
I've been using a version of Plants Vs. Zombies that I found online. It's an HD version that's been working great, and it looks really good. Just try searching Google for Plants Vs. Zombies HD APK. Thats what I did, and I love it.

Thank you I will try this since the version I paid for doesn't work.
There are a bunch of games I've gotten as amazon free app of the day that break in ICS... PvZ, Peggle, and Kona's Crate to name a few. I also have issues with Zen Pinball unfortunately. They are all games that worked on my Prime and my Gingerbread phones, but don't on ICS. I'm assuming they need an ICS compatibility update, but haven't researched it much yet.
UPDATE: I was just reading through the user reviews for the app in the amazon store and I saw a suggestion that worked for me... clear the games data in Settings > Apps, and the game should load right up.
Thanks. This also applies for the non-Prime TF101 (for Zen Pinball, although I had to run the game 2x after clearing data to get it working). I emailed the developers about the issue yesterday and have now pointed them to this thread.

[Q] Dungeon Hunter 2 HD on TouchPad ICS?

I'd really like to have Dungeon Hunter 2 running on my TouchPad but hesitate to grab it before knowing whether someone else has already confirmed that it works and which device to claim to be when purchasing it. In particular I'm talking about a TouchPad running CM9/ICS. Any thoughts?
I just ran into the same thing. I'd like to purchase it legally, but it can only be purchased from Game Loft's website, not from the marketplace, and they require you to choose manufacturer and model from dropdown menus before proceeding. Needless to say, CM9 Touchpad isn't on the list.
I tried grabbing some torrents of the game just to see if it would work, which was hit or miss. Many would not install. The one that did, a 1.0.6 version, failed on the huge download upon first running the game.
