Game compatability for Dell Venue 8?? - Dell Venue

Really looking forward to getting one of these. Will take me back to my first tablet, the Dell Streak 7. One thing that concerns me is being an Intel processor game compatibility might be quite bad. Although I might be wrong of course.
I pretty much mostly use tablets for gaming and browsing so I am hoping to check for some opinions. Does it seem to be compatible with most games? Any games noticeably missing from Play store?
Games I play are Order and Chaos Duels, Modern Combat 4, Gameloft Live! and Lets Golf 3.
If there are no big problems with game compatibility im definately going to get one but if quite alot of games are missing from the play store I might look elsewhere.

Well I am guessing your using the android version. The only app that seem was a problem was the PayPal app :/

Of those, all are venue 8 compatible (according to google play; I didn't actually install them on my venue 8) except for Gameloft Live. It seems Gameloft Live isn't compatible with my 2012 nexus 7 or my nexus 5 either, for whatever reason.

How about games like candy crush, clash of clans, wheres my water, or those running games?

I was not concerned about the performance, but the compatibility, as in, will those games run at all or not? my nexus 7 is incompatible with some games and they can't be downloaded from Play Store because of this.

Big fish casino fails to open on the venue 8. Just sits at a blank screen. I am assuming it is a compatibility issue with the intel processor. I have emailed the developer on it, but have not received any fix as of yet.

In the comments several people have mentioned the S II, and one mentioned they could run THD games with no visual drawbacks.

You do know this game is going to be developed for the Tegra 2 successor, the quad core game.

Does that run on SGS2?.

good gaming

I am starting to think that thia phone not so awesome for gaming with titles like order and chaos and nova not being available. am I right? Should I return my phone for an IPhone4? Or should I wait abit for software compatibility?
Android is still developing in terms of the game department. iphone has slightly better apps and better gaming offerings because it has a bigger userbase, but android has better hardware, it just needs some polishing. if you want an iphone then get one. no sense in being unhappy. The 4S is a nice device but too much of an incremental upgrade. I got an ipad 2 and quickly grew weary of ios. so I got an android phone after the disappointing announcement of the 4S. for me it just wasn't what I needed at the moment, but that's not to say its a 'bad' device. if you want better games get an iphone. If you want to be able to tweak your device like crazy and have a fast and responsive phone with a big screen and 4G then keep this phone.
I just recently downloaded Nova 2 HD & its awesome!! Just sayin..

How do you get nova on sghi777? Rooted? Mind giving me an outline?
The gaming will be fine on this phone. The big thing is Gameloft has yet to make their games on the Market listed as compatible with the i777. I can't imagine that will last too much longer.
I downloaded a whole package of gameloft games from another site( Google it) and have nova2 , assassins creed and quite a few more. All look and play top notch on this phone.

Gameloft is protesting the android market. Go to gameloft.com to get their titles, including nova, etc. This phone plays them beautifully, sure the iphone has a wide variety, but quality beats quantity eh?

Yes get an iPhone 4. That's the perfect solution to not being able to figure something out that really only takes 3 minutes. I've been playing Nove2, Gangstar Miami HD, and a few others for a week now. Get stuck on an OS that decides what you will and should use. Don't keep the ability to make the phone EXACTLY how you want it.

Has something to do with the fact that google gets a certain % off of each sale same with apple. Only difference is since apple gives the developers no choice on how to sell the app on their platform gameloft has to deal with it, since google does give the developers a choice gameloft chooses to backout to get more money. Kind of a shame since if you really look at it gameloft would make more money if they would sell it on the google market place since users would be able to easily see it and not know that these games were even available outside of the market.

Thanks for this man, I was able to get a couple Tegra games to work. Though the Backbreaker, Riptide, and Bang Bang Racing don't work.

All Gameloft games now compatible :)

Gonna pick up Asphalt, Dark Knight, and spiderman. Hope they run alright.
Edit:
Okay, maybe not all the gameloft library is compatible. But most of it is now. Backstab, Dungeon Hunter, Gangstar, are all good to go. Few older titles like Nova 2 still not getting TF300 love.
Thanks, asphalt 7 is still ugly though

Not sure about those games. I just bought Spiderman and it's working alright.
And my playstore in Korea says that 9mm is still not compatible. But Backstab is listed as compatible.
Might be because of my specific playstore market that 9mm is not listed as compatible. The only one they have listed for me here is a Korean listing. They do the same for Backstab, but they have 2 listings, one in English one in Korean. The Korean one isn't listed as compatible for the TF300 but the English listing says it is.
Edit: LoL, just found a Korean app company that looks like they are stealing everyone's apps. Found a few gameloft and EA titles. They got Deadspace on there. Pretty sure EA isn't trying to sell that one for free on the appstore.
has anyone bought asphalt 7? does it work alright?

I played it for about an hour today. It's alright. Frame rate seemed fine, but there's a fair amount of pop-in and some low res textures.
the OP statement is totally wrong, not all gameloft titles are compatible, i had to install asphalt 6 and dungeon hunter 3 thru a trick, but they work allright now ..

Asphalt 6 and Dungeon Hunter 3 are both listed as compatible in the market for the TF300. Perhaps there are some differences in the markets in our regions.
And I did correct the OP and noted that a few titles were still not listed as compatible.

I dont think Nova 3 compatability is the best. I downloaded and uninstalled nova 3 , 3 times and it force closes after downloading the 1.8gb game data. ive even tried coldbooting and it dosent work. I made sure my tablet was up to date as well.

Dunno why but all gameloft games are set on medium by default, and only after editing the config fils in the obb (If I manage to find out what does what and which one is the config file in the first place) can look like on the ios counterpats...dunno why stupid gameloft puts our device in the medium cathegory, im playing doom 3 for ****s sake on it, not some retarded ganstar rio with medium graphics
i can run most of the gameloft's games,
but they all seem to be laggy on my tf300,
especially NOVA3, its almost unplayable, does anyone know a way to fix this???
I think theres no way to fix it. Gameloft sucks because they never optimize their games for Android
Tried asphalt 7: great graphics, no lag BUT: the main menu, speedometer, nitro, brake, etc look like sh*t

Watch Nexus 10 running Need For Speed Most Wanted and Asphalt 7

I have search the Nexus 10 forum and I have not found anybody else posting these videos here. Last night I came accross these video so I thought I should share with you guys:
Nexus 10 running Need for Speed Most Wanted:
http://youtu.be/y8SeoVHXyeM
Nexus 10 running Need for Speed Hot Pursuit and Asphalt 7

This is to show you some real world gaming performance. I have heard that Nova 3 works pretty well on this tablet. Some textures on the Asphalt 7 are still like whats on Nexus 7 so it probably needs to be updated. However both EA and GL working hard to update their games before 13th November.
Lol, who is this guy and why does he have a nexus 10?
I've always said screw the useless benchmarks. Nexus 10 running real games this smooth looks very promising.
EPIC LAGS on the most wanted video, 3:29 and 3:31 (and minor lags the 10 seconds before and after that), wtf?

Lolz yes and the guy was shaking his tablet hoping that the game would start working this way
Beside these lags the game was working fine. There was some weird green holo in Asphalt 7 when you collect money. I think asphalt 7 still needs more work although game was updated on 2 Nov. Gameloft is updating it games and so does EA

No idea. He is indian but I think currently he is living in USA. I saw one guy posted a comment on his video that nexus 10 is available from ebay for 699. I check on ebay and there were preorders only. I think some reviewer sold his tablet to him like people right away sold their nexus 7 as soon as they came out of Google I/O.

Yes CNET is always praise for this tablet as well and normally they are apple guys so this means tablet is indeed good. I have seen Asphalt 7 running great in another review video some days ago so I knew that games are not an issue on this tablet.

Getting the 32GB version, you can't add extra storage later and a bit more cash gets you double the space. Getting rid of my iPad 3 64G LTE, putting it up on eBay. So long Apple.

Likely a system background app doing that yea, thus "Android" lagging the game per se, like on any other phone/tablet.

Yeah think if the tablet couldn't run the game it would lag all the time, a couple of blips points to another app causing it.
One app I could telling was open in the background was poweramp when he started the music from the drop down menu. Overall I would have to say that video is encouraging. With a developer streamlined kernel overclocking the gpu a little the N10 is going to beast.
Watched the asphalt 7 vid and I see the graphics are set on low with the tiny opening gameloft logo. Would really like to see a7 with the graphics on high which can be enabled by editing the config file found in the obb. The N7 has to be overclocked to the max to make that game smooth and playable when all graphical options are enabled.

I think its also worth saying that all these reviews and demo's have been on the review version of the OS, you can expect more "tinkering" with it before the release, and you can almost guaranty there's gunna be an update avilable as soon as you connect it to the web.

realy bad gaming compatibility -real racing 3-

Hey guys, Ive got my Nexus 10 since the first realease batch and I love it soooo much!
Only thing which realy dissapoints me is that there are a lot of aps out there (especially games)
which are not compatible with it.
Top titles like the just released Real Racing 3
I DONT GET IT.... its MADE for a device like the nexus 10....
why they are doing this to me (((
anyone knows a way to download the .apk even its not compatible?
Tegra/THD stuff won't be downloadable from Market (even though Tegra effects shouldn't be an issue on something more powerful than a Tegra 3... but w/e).
As for other games, the developer might just choose to restrict it to the most "popular" devices, and to not risk having negative reviews, mark it as incompatible with everything else. Pretty sure a Nexus 10 isn't as popular as, say, a Nexus 7, GS3, GNote, etc.
Only way to get the apk "legitimately" is to install it to a compatible device, then pull the apk off the device and then sideload it to the N10.
Real Racing 3 isn't released until the 28th?

It's the 28th in Australia. I downloaded RR3 from the play store just then on my Nexus10 and I'm currently download the extra files. Maybe it's a regional restriction?
Maybe he meant real racing 2? That ones not compatible. Not sure. Glad you're able to download it

Tried RR3. It downloaded 4.1 Gb cache but the graphics...black/white/pink textures, no reflections and shadows. Ugly, but runs fine. Better than NFS:MW on 4.2.1 and worse than on 4.2.2 with custom kernel
Im at work currently but assigned the game to my N10 via playstore. Will report in a couple of hours who it works on mine.
It really would be a shame to have such a great game not propperly working on our 'flagship' tablet. Do you maybe have this 4x anti alising thing active?

Runs great. FPS drops to just below 30 on a few occasions but not really noticable. Most of the time it is 30-50 FPS. TBH there is some lag in the intro videos and the menus but who cares about that.
