Nova 3 - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Anyone know when nova 3 comes out for android already out on os

may 17

Just an educated guess, but I seriously doubt you would be able to run it smoothly on the galaxy player, as mc3 pushes it, and Nova 3 looks alot more demanding than even that. It doesn't really run on the iPod touch 4g, though, so it would be nice to rub it in their faces
I am personally wanting to get asphalt 7. Can't wait for either!

It will probably arrive roughly at the end of the month

Mc3 runs perfect on mine and never knew there was an asphalt 7.
It should run good with a bit lags though

Asphalt 7: heat is supposedly coming out this month. Mc3 runs pretty smooth on mine, but I am used to ps3 gaming, so even slight drops in framerate annoy me! I am what they call a "frameratephile" (actually just coined that word)!

So what your saying is it "does" matter to you? lol

I highly doubt that it will run smoothly on the player, the newer are probably optimized for Tegra 3, Adreo 22x, and Mali 400. I was playing Zenonia 4 and that lags on Gingerbread, so I would assume that Nova 3 would be even more laggier than that.

Agreed.
I'm currently experimenting with overclocking the gpu in the kernel. The powervr sgx540 is clocked at 200mhz, but the same chip is clocked at a higher speed in the galaxy nexus. (I think 400mhz?)

Google clocked it to 307MHz in the GN(according to posters over there), I would love to have 307MHz or 384MHz if possible...I know ICS will really benefit since they made everything HW accelerated. And I suspect that over players will need newer drivers, because I doubt the Nexus S & i9k use the same drivers currently.

How are you going to overclock the GPU? Manually? Or is there an app for that?

I think the lag is from the bloom, and DOF(depth of field) effects, I would recommend a game like that be played on an iPad3 or Tegra 3.

I Came from the i9000, the only thing better about that was the screen.
There is no lag like the Samsung it juts works in fact it all just works strictly speaking we dont need a custom rom on this as it's pretty good as stock (not that we arnt trying of course)
So if you love games buy it, if you like games buy it, if your not bothered about games dont buy it.

If you won't miss the much better screen of the Fascinate, the Play is a very good choice. It has a very solid Interface without much fluff, is developer-friendly, has awesome gaming controls, solid (not great) cameras and good GPS. The screen however isn't all that great. It has good colors, but the maximum brightness is pretty crappy, it's not very visible in sunlight and the picture sometimes 'drags' a little. Nothing that would ruin the run, but it's noticeable.

I agree, the play is great for gaming but it is lacking in power compared to some of the latest phones.
My buddy got a free play and let me play with it 4 a night. If your a gamer, the controller is a serious selling point. On my desire hd, gaming is fun but touch screen sucks. On the play, I was loving gaming. Played ocarina of time. Set the controls to hardware and left the c buttons on screen. Ran smooth too. Same with final fantasy 9 on fpse. No lag at all. I get lag on my desire hd which is overall a better phone spec wise
Maybe it has a better video card? Or its optimized 4 gaming so specs mean nothing.

i have a desire HD too and agree GPU performance is better on the play, quallcomm said it developed more mature adreno drivers for the play, maybe once the play is hacked, a dev like snq could port the play drivers to the DHD
Adding in another yes, mine just came in the mail today. After spending the night with it I am absolutely pleased with my purchase. Finally, I can game properly on my phone. It's a really responsive phone, too. Gingerbread is snappy on this thing.
Yes!
Play is a really good phone, I love it`s controls and on stock firmware it really is good unlike with some other phones I have had where I just wanted to change to a custom rom because of them being boring or buggy.
Play may not have as powerful a processor as some other smart phones, but it`s gpu makes up for it and gives the power it needs for great gaming.
Sony do need to get their asses in gear for the Playstation releases though, right now their line up is crap and not getting much update.

apart from the Dual core tegra 2, the quallcomm scorpion is the most powerful CPU on the market, infact it's its GPU adreno 205 witch lacks in power

Is the Razr a decent gaming device?

I'm interested in getting a Razr and I would appreciate some experience with playing games on it as I'm a big gamer. I have an iPod Touch, but I only play like three games on it because the screen is so small. Is the Razr capable of keeping up with intense games?

I recently acquired the craze for this amazing games available, and I can say they run awesomely great!
See, I used to have an Xperia, and the games were either too big (in MB) or too demanding (processing power) so I never really played, since the phone slowed down considerably.
Now with my RAZR, I tried a bunch of games that ran as smooth as butter, with very detalied graphics on the, oh so great screen, it's overall a much, much better experience. I tried GTA 3, Battle Bears, Spiderman HD, Real Racing 2 and Shine Runner. All took up 400-700 MB but they run with no hiccups.
Real Racing 2 works on the RAZR?

Yeah, just tried it this morning. Seems to work so far.
We've got a PowerVR GPU. It's enough.
Somehow, my riptide GP and sprinkle ( YES SPRINKLE) lag when i play them.
Also, the water effects in sprinkle is not real..it looks like round dots..which are really ugly. Already using chainfire3D but still there. dont really know why
It's not about capability, it's all about compatibility.

Agreed on GTA. Please also consider that unlike a few other recent devices, the Razr has a qHD, rather than 720p, so less pixels to push. Especially if you play game emulators, the Gnex and Rezound do not play very well with virtual pads, plus PSX and N64 play slower.
Pixels are a factor for game emulators and is why they play faster when in a smaller native window (less pixels to push). Not sure why there is not better scaling for Android, but all current chipsets have the issue.

I wouldn't give any money to gameloft. They have absolutely no support. They have been absolutely horrible to deal with across multiple devices for me. Some of their games don't even work on devices they say they support. Good luck trying to get a refund from them. I bought nova hd three devices back on a device they supported for that game. So far hasn't worked on any of my devices.

In fact, GTA was the only game that I experienced stuttering. Don't know if there is any version optimized for Adreno. Still graphics were subpar compared to other games which run smoothly.

Wild Blood released today

EDIT:
Gameloft released an update today that fixed most of the Tegra lag that most of us were running into. I'm glad to see the company responding to criticism.
OP:
Gameloft's much-anticipated foray into the world of Unreal graphics was released today... and it absolutely sucks on the TF201 with JB. It is so laggy that it is almost unplayable.
If you've got $7 bucks to spend on an action/adventure game, go with Horn.
Runs very smooth with ics oced to 1.7ghz. Some textures could be better upclose but is looking good overall and no lag.

I've got to say that it's a good thing that they had this updated for Tegra, but I've noticed that they've disabled all the shader graphics and sword swinging effects for the Tegra version, take a look at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q051U1nzjM&feature=youtube_gdata_player and notice the effects when the player swings the sword
Edit;
As from the Note 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avQPCv9ki8k&feature=youtube_gdata_player full graphics are enabled as well, so it's just for the Tegra 3 that gameloft has disabled special effects
like it
make fun
See, this is the issue with the Tegra3 SoC. On one hand you have some great games developed for it (mainly by Madfinger) but on the other hand, other developers are taking effects out of their games in order to get their content to play smoothly on Tegra3 devices.

Really, one core? Which CPU monitor are you using? That seems really kind of ridiculous since all Android phones made in the last 2 years have 2 cores. The only devices that I know of that's come out in the last year that has a single core is the Intel based ones.
Anyone know if Wild Blood supports sixaxxis/ps3 controller natively? I recently downloaded Dungeon Hunter 3 and it works flawlessly with a PS3 Controller (i'm not rooted!). Thanks in advance for anyone who answers!

I play from time to time havent played in a while though.
Yep, but not too much. It's lagging sometimes like hell... I have graphics set to Medium, and even on this it lags sometimes. But overall it's great game. I wonder, if it's worth rooting and overcloking my tab to have better performance... Do you play on stock 1.3 GHz?

Then it might be likely another issue, like server for Europe etc. Because I'm connected by fiber-optics with 40 Mbps. Tablet is connected to the network by WiFi N router. So, that should not be the reason.
