Games compatibility - HTC Desire X

Hi, how is it with compatibility of hd games? I tried modern combat 3 and 4, star warfare hd and normal version and all these types of games has same problem... I start it and I can see the initial screen, I touch it to go to main menu, then I see loading screen and in time when the game should jump into main menu, the screen just blinks and I'm back in app drawer... Is this common problem or compatibility issue? Thnx

I tried dragon slayer and its laggy too... Well this phone is just not gaming device... I'm glad that I don't play a lot

I think it is a common problem because of the new Snapdragon S4 processor. It also happens to me sometines on Dead Space and Most Wanted but try to reboot the device. About the compatibility: every single gameloft game that I'd tried (NOVA 1/2/3, MC 3/2, Asphalt 6/7, etc) jumped to the home screen after about 30 secs-1 minute of gameplay. I think I should root and use Chainfire 3D with qualcomm plug-in but it seems pretty hard right now and I am not sure if it will really work.

I've just tried NFS Most Wanted and it runs smoothly, no hick-ups, sometimes it freezes while loading of track, but while driving never.

Feel free to list any games at all, as I am looking for suggestions to explore the gpu possibilities with this phone... Plus for some weird reason it seems like market doesn't have many 3D intense games to take advantage of.... I'm running all stock no playststion emukators or any other stuff.
Thanks in advance!

You gotta go to gameloft's website to get some 3d games. They aren't on the market.

Quake 3 is the only thing that manages to use the GPU. Everything else is a iPhone ported eyesore.
Can't wait for higher end Android phones to get some marketshare so developers actually make games that use the hardware.
(I'd put PSX4Droid at 2nd, but it's a bit sluggish even on the Vibrant)
fav 3D games
two that I fin addictive:
Speedx 3D (blazingly fast) a reflex sharpener!
Prism 3D (from same Co.) nice challenging!
asphalt 5 lol
but not really addicted to it, just for a quick race every now and then, but the best has got to be final fantasy 7 through psx4droid or any ps1 game really.
quake3droid on the market plays really well now, just like Nova. Works great with the volume rocker
N.O.V.A "IMO best"
NFS Shift
Quake3droid
Lets Golf
Asphalt 5
Homerun battle
HyperSpace ;D

Games

I didn't saw nobody talking about games and I know is only 2 points of multitouch on the screen but there is a lot of games that may work fine on the NT for example guerilla bob is working perfect and samuray 2 from the market , is any other games compatible with this device?
Shadow Gun runs great on my nook
I mostly play Pocket Legends and that runs beautifully. I tried a few other games and the only one the NT struggled with was CK Zombies.

Shadow gun? that's a good game I will have to try that thanks for the info.
I am not a fan of pocket legends but I am sure a lot of people is thanks
Tried Fruit Ninja and it works ... unfortunately most part of the games has small resolutions for the screen

download spareparts from the market and uncheck "compatability mode" and reboot. It should be full screen now
most games run great. if you have the market installed i recommend shadowgun like others have said but cordy and sleepy jack look AMAZING on the tablet and both run great. fruit ninja is full screen for me so no issues there. i also have windup knight, deathworm, cyberlords, x-men, defender and star blitz. all of them run well and most look fantastic (x-men is stretched but still plays fine)
So far my biggest disappointment was that I couldn't get Asphalt 6 HD to run. I also had no luck with Raging Thunder I or II.
Other than that I've been running: Shadowgun, SimCity Deluxe, Reckless Getaway, Reckless Racing Play (works but no sound), Fieldrunners HD, Backstab HD, Grave Defense HD, Air Attack HD, Zuma's Revenge HD, Iron Rusher, Iron Wars, Wind Up Knight, Defender, Sprinkle, Lane Splitter, all the Angry Birds games.
i got spareparts, didn't have to reboot, just unchecked compatibility, then booted up the game, worked fine
Just tried NOVA 2 and no dice. I get a prompt telling me its not compatible and to request a refund.
I'm still surprised though that it struggles with CK Zombies. There's a lag/stall at just about every gunshot. My phone, however, plays it with no problems at all and has lesser specs.

tried the first zenonia but i cannot find how to save.... so.... useless atm....
defender works very good (but i'm quite n00b so @level 27 start have some problems but this not belongs to Nook Tablet )
also majiong is ok
Shadow gun looks and plays amazing...

thanks guys NFS hot pursuit is working perfect at first the game got stuck on the loading window but after clearing data it works fine
Several games that didn't work before I got to work by copying over the versions from my Galaxy Tab. For example, Asphalt Adrenaline HD 6 works beautifully. Ditto Nova 2.
So just a heads up.. the Galaxy Tab version of certain games seem to work fine on the NT.
Also Riptide GP at the highest quality graphic settings looks simply stunning on the NT. The water FX look incredible and smooth as silk. Definitely a game to show off the NT's abilities.

Just finished installing Minecraft and Great Little War Game, both run without any issues. (10 cents each on android market special offer)
Not really a gamer; but GLWG (Great Little War Game) works fine too...

Whats the main limitation(s) for the S3s gaming capability?

Good evening ladies and gents.
I'm about to jump off the fence and buy a new phone (and since I'm posting here I guess you've figured that I'm seriously considering the S3). But before I choose I want to know which games I can expect to be able to play. I stumbled onto the Tegra Zone a few months after I bought my Desire HD and was quite disappointed that it didn't support the content. I know the S3 doesn't have Tegra but stil a lot of the games are still supported/available.
I've now read through dozens of threads but I'm unable to find out how one figures out which games the S3 can run. In some cases I see thats it's just the "ultra high" setting that isn't supported (1. is this correct?). 2. Is there a different version of most games that are meant for non-Tegra devices or is it the exact game but some of which lack the highest graphics settings? Lastly: 3. Are there any games that S3 owners won't be able to play in the foreseeable future?
I would really appreciate input to any of my questions. Have a good day/night
It runs Mali-400 games and if you decide to Root just install Chainfire 3D and you can run most Tegra and any other games.
Gaming is very good. Thats all i have to say
Sorry i couldnt be of more help.
Have u tried looking on the playstore? With a friends phone or on the web page. Google searched? There is a thread about good ganes in the s3

S3 can play anything but Tegra3 Specific games, there is an app made by Chainfire it's called "Chainfire3D" where it emulates all different graphic chips in the market, so basically you can play all non-tegra and tegra games that aren't Tegra3 specifc as mentioned above. The app needs root in order to work. Dead trigger is the latest game to come out and it plays VERY nice and smooth. Shadowgun tegra2 version works, Pinball THD, Fruit Ninja THD, NBA Jam works nice PES2011, Blood and Glory work pretty well... I'm not much into gaming, those are the games I own, and I can say they are the ones that will hammer the CPU and GPU pretty good. I'm not sure what you mean with "ultra high settings" everything works. remember that the screen size is 1280x800 so some games that are made for smaller screen will have black bars or some cropping or some weird behavior, but I've only seen that on "time killer" games, can't recall which game was that showed this behavior, but still playable.
Hope that straight things out a bit for you.
Chain fire helps with some tegra games but it's not perfect eg sonic 4 ep 2 lags like treacle and some tegra games don't work at all. However the graphics hardware in the gs3 is the fastest in the world for a smartphone so there's a lot of potential. But tbh gaming without hardware buttons is pretty crap anyway.

Thank you all for your replies.
I had already read through the post you mentioned slking1989 but even though it assured me that a lot of quality games are supported it didn't give me a definite answer regarding how to determine beforehand if a game will run or not (like "system requirements" or similar). I'm guessing the reason HQ games doesn't show up in the Play store on my current phone is that it doesn't support themn thus it's no points showing them but since I don't have the phone yet I wanted to do some research.
My choice is between the S3 and the HOX but after your replies the S3 was pushed further ahead in the race (only kept back by the insecurity around Tegra games really). Now I just have to decide which color to get.
This may help u decide

I doubt this has something to do with this. If this was case of 2-3 not running apps, then maybe, but problem is somewhere else.

that is exactly why you are facing problems, because you have downloaded those warez games, they are most likely chienese copies or maybe for other ARM structure & won't work on your device..

Please stop talking about warez on xda as it's not allowed here.
*Google knows answer for that, what can't be answered on XDA.*
Since there is already a question for this kind of problem, I would like to ask something about another game.
Subway Surfers works kind of bad on my phone, and I don't know why because it worked perfectly by now. Could it be because of it's last updates? The last timed it worked bad I factory reseted my phone, and then the game worked great, now I did this again, and nothing happened.

Maybe you have too many processes that eat your RAM and then other apps may not work properly. Get an app like Clean Master and boost your memory. If it doesn't work try factory resetting your phone. If you don't have a rooted phone your backups won't have the game data so you will lose all your progress.

you won't find them for free (google has implemented license checks and a diversity of anti-piracy things like xapk)...and it is against xda's rule to post links to any site that contains warez/pirated games/apps

[Q] Which games are nexus 9 compatible?

Hi all,
I am a happy owner of a nexus 9.
Apart from the bleeding at the edges and the fact that the back can be pressed in the middle, I am very satisfied with it. The downside will be that I will crave for a faster laptop, since it feels so slow compared to the Nexus.
Now I wanted to play some games to fully use the Tegra K1, however I do not know which are compatible with the Tegra K1/Lollipop/Nexus9. I tried Dungeon Hunter 4 as I like rpg's, but that onendidnnot work. I am willing to buy games if they are good enough but would prefer to know if they work on the nexus before buying.
If you have any suggestions let them know below.
Cheers Remco
Update:
Meanwhile Dungeon hunter 4 got an update. Now it works flawlessly.
Soulcraft also works great
Asphalt 8 too
Kritika (RPG) did not work
As I play other games I will mention them here.
I tried gta sa... it lags! Xcom too!

According to google play "Trine 2" does not work on the Nexus 9. At €15 for the game is it worth it on the shield?
