[Q] Games[Android] support confusion - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I own an Xperia sola ICS stock ROM [.54] not rooted and locked bootloader. It has 512 mb of ram and
380mb of RAM is available to me. It has a NovaThor 1 GHz Dual core processor and Mali 400MP
GPU. I've played several games on my android but cannot figure out why many games doesn't runs smooth on it.
And some gives bad graphics as it is a low end device for them.. But i cannot understand how??
I've Played NFS MOSTWANTED 2012 and Asphalt 7 on my phone but NFS MW has a better graphic display than Asphalt 7. I searched through
XDA i found that the originally made Hi end graphics are for devices like Xperia Z,ZL but when NFS is showing me the best Hi end graphics without a lag why can't Asphalt do the same.
I'd played DEAD TRIGGER on my phone which have highly Immersive graphics. Totally polished and somewhat they can be compared to PC games graphics. The game runs without any LAG on my
phone but MC3, MC4 lags like hell even when they shares a bit less immersive graphics than DEAD TRIGGER. And Brothers In Arms,It shows a white background and then force closes by it self on touching the screen.
I'd played Max Payne on my phone worked like heaven no lag no glitches but Battlefield Badcompany 2 lags on stge 3 and never works after stage 14.
I've played RPG games like Arlon, Ravensword both worked fluently but I m unable to play Miami Vindication it force closes on touching the screen
IRON MAN 3 worked for me with a bit and ignorable lag but Dark Knight Rises lagged like hell and THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN throws to home screen after loading the first stage.
Frontline Commando works great but D-DAY lags and takes 5-7 mins to load.
Conclusion is why the games that i've compared with have comparitively lower graphics than the games that run on my device lags and doesn't work or are incompatible.
You must have Observed that GAMELOFT games rarely seems to be working on Xperia sola. But why.
EA games are all working like heaven
Mostly all the other developers work great
But why GAMELOFT games do not work..
ROOTING my device is one solution but this gives a reason for that developer to ignore dealing with the game betterment.

[Testing] The SGP Can Play *Some* Tegra (THD) Games!

Well, after messing around with Chainfire3d a bit and downloading the NVIDIA plugin, I decided to give some Tegra-supported games a shot!
4 CONFIRMED WORKING SO FAR! Still testing games! If you want to help, feel free to test some as well and post your results!
Keep in mind that SOME (not all) of these games ARE HUGE, so make sure you have plenty of space on your internal/phone storage prior to downloading the data online! I think GOF2 THD was about 500+MB of additionally downloaded data.
Here is what works so far with my device at 1GHz + NVIDIA chainfire3d plugin + MSAA 4x enabled :
1.) GOF2 THD <-- Looks AMAZING (though is a rather simple game) , I didn't think the SGP could output such sharp graphics considering it's fairly weak GPU! And the framerate is more than playable!
~ WITHOUT THE PLUGIN IT WILL BE BLACK AND WHITE WITH "NO" 3D TEXTURES. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO APPLY THE "NVIDIA" PLUGIN FOR THIS GAME PRIOR TO PLAYING
~ NOTE THAT THIS GAME USES A "TON" OF RAM! AROUND 130MB, SO PLEASE CLOSE OTHER APPLICATIONS/GAMES PRIOR TO PLAYING!
2.) AirAttack HD Part 1 - Works just fine! The graphics look pretty darn good for a top down kind of arcade-ish game!
~ Uses around 61mb of RAM, so not really a hog.
~ Doesn't seem to slow down the CPU @ 1GHz
~ Works!
3.) Riptide GP
~ Looks AMAZING
~ Runs extremely smooth at max resolution
~ Make sure to set the NVIDIA plugin and enable 4x MSAA
~ RUNS PERFECT! =)
4.) Shine Runner (Tegra)
~ Looks amazing!
~ Runs very smoothly
~ High quality textures!
~ Make sure to use the NVIDIA plugin and enable 4x MSAA!
Games THAT DO NOT WORK (At least at the moment, messing with settings may allow them to work, or overclocking to higher frequencies over 1GHz)
2.) SoulCraft BETA <--- Uses 130MB~ RAM (which is doable) , but the CPU struggles with it @ 1GHz, may work better at higher clocks.
THIS GAME MAY REQUIRE OVERCLOCKING TO BE ABLE TO BE RUN --- Not interested in testing that atm, but if you do, let us know!
~ Update 11:42 EST - Crashed at around 91% loaded, going to try again.
~ Update 11:46 EST - Crashed again, trying with textures lowered/dropped to 16bit, still no luck. This game may work with overclocking.
3.) Not sure what to test next, have any games you'd like to test?
Let's see what else we can play! If you own any Tegra games (I don't have the money to toss around for random games atm, like Shadowgun) at the moment for other devices; Use the market fix to make THD games show up, download, set the plugin to NVIDIA and give it a shot!
Post your results here and i'll add them to the main post!
Happy gaming all!
New find! We can play some THD games in much higher resolution. It makes Fruit Ninja THD look a lot better. Almost double+ the resolution.
Download "Spare Parts Plus" from the market and disable the option about compatibility for older applications and reboot, then you'll see the stunning difference (at least in the Fruit Ninja THD app).
Modern HD gaming is becoming a little easier for SGP owners!
Now we just need a way to enable a little higher MSAA (Higher than 4x) to smooth out edges in 3D games and it'll be perfect considering it's lack of modern hardware!
Enjoy everyone!!!!
*reserved for more games*
*reserved*
I can play shadowgun, runs fine, still no slowdowns.

Most graphically intense games?

I wanna test out my note and push it to the max. What games do you guys suggest? I have tried shadowgun so far and zenonia 4. My phone doesnt even blink twice. Oh not to mention GTA3.
Order & Chaos don't think there is a more intense game.
sent from AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note Dual Core 1.83 GHz
Blood and Glory and Shadowgun seem more intense than this. Is it an MMORPG? I was looking for games to impress friends with this device really.

Subway Surfers

I got adicted to this game but it laggs so much on our X10 that it's not playable. It's not possible to do more than 200k because it starts lagging too much. I tried few ROMs and after reading I concluded that this game is for devices is 1GB+ of RAM so no chance that this can be played on our X10 without any lagg.
Now my question is; is there any modified version with worse graphic or anything to play it well on X10? Any script? I tried gamebooster, it doesn't help at all.
Is there somebody who plays this game without lagg?
man try this one:

Adreno 200 is too slow GPU to render Subway Surfers at good framerate..

I prefer mobile phone gaming than console.
