[Q] Games for 2.3 - HTC Aria Themes and Apps

So, now that gingerbread has been released and the fact that it was "geared towards gaming", have we even seen ANY games released specifically for it? I've tried googling, looking in market, etc, etc, etc. but anything I search on google returns nothing but news about the release of gingerbread and anything i search on market returns...nothing.
I'm deployed overseas right now and some new games would be pretty awesome to tinker around with.

I haven't noticed any new for gb games, but I have noticed that a few games that I couldn't play on my aria/froyo due to fc issues now run flawlessly on cm7.

are you able to play "gun bros" i cant firgure out why its not playin ..i think its time for a new phone

.
Aria is not the best gaming platform as many of the good games uses ARMv7 instructions while our beloved Aria has just a ARMv6 cpu :/

One thing I have noticed is that I cannot run Need For Speed Shift on CM7. I could run it with no problems on CM6 but it shows the splash screen and then shuts down. I tried reinstalling it several time, and nothing. Has anyone else tried any graphics intensive games on CM7? NFS is the only one I have.
Every other game runs just fine. Robo Defense Full ran just fine on CM6 and just as good on CM7 for me.

how do I use SNESoid

When I click on my freshly downloaded SNESoid apparently it ask me to which ROM I want to download the games(I guess?) To? What do I do? I'm a decently experienced android user(1yr) but never used a game emulater. Please enlighten me and help.

Game Emulators require ROMs - digital images of the original game cartridge - in order to play the game. When the emulator asks you to pick a ROM, it's the same as inserting the game cartridge into the system!
If you're down with the whole "torrent" scene, just type "SNES ROMs" into your favorite torrent search engine; you'll find gigabytes worth of SNES games. Keep in mind that, legally, you are supposed to *own* the original game to legally play the ROM on an emulator. I doubt many people pay that any heed, however.
Once you've downloaded all the ROMs you desire, just copy them into a folder on your SDCard, and navigate there from the SNESoid menu.
Ah, OK that explains it. Well I was just curious how to get that up and running. Thanks a lot.

Hey ksizzle9,
I read something about using a WiiMote and bluetooth to play games on android phones.
I can't embed a url here so just search "wiimote android" on google.
I haven't tried it myself since I lack a Wii but it just might be really cool if you're playing emulated games. . .hard to play Mario with a touchscreen!
Peace.

Need help from a real NC user! I need to know if it can...

1) play accelerometer 3d games
2) play video including YouTube
3) flash 10.1 video on browser
4) wifi capable if tethered off my mytouch 4g.
I know it would need root and custom rom.
Is it easy as rooting a mt4g. Thanks in advance
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
1) Yes
2,3) With Froyo, yes you can play flash video (AKA, youtube).
4) I tether my nook to my Incredible all the time, no problems.
Your best bet is to try out one of the current Froyo builds on an SD cards, so you don't have to mess with changing the stock OS at all..
Thanks...hooked on mipeliculagratis dot com. Requires flash 10.1 and free movies on demand. Might pick up NC on payday.
Thanks again.... have u played need for speed shift on it?

Heads up on the games...the accelerometer works, but it's less sensitive than most phones, and that can affect gameplay. I've noticed some games can be trickier due to it's responsiveness. But on the whole, yes, it works fine for motion-based gaming.
i have asphalt 5 on my nook, it runs great, and so do the accelerometer controls. the best example i can think of is HAWX, which is also a great motion controlled game that runs with no problems on my nook

Psx emulation

I am having trouble getting psx4droid working, I have the right settings,bios, and the.bin file is valid, but ia attempt to load it and it restarts back to the file tree....
So I downloaded, FPse, and to my surprise, it works! So I guess my question is, which one is better? Is psx4d worth trying to fix?
Thanks for any advice!
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

How did you get fpse to work without lag?
Cm7+overclock+(no game sound )= no lag...
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Where do you get your roms from?
Not here cause piracy is bad.
I have an assload of PlayStation games, I just want to know where he got them from. Roms are legal if you actually own the game, which I do.
If you have them you can rip them using programmes like ISO buster.
You'll get an iso file and that's the rom you need.

Thank you
FPse seems better to me. I tried PSX4Droid and it was much slower than FPse. FPse rocks!!
Yeah, psx4droid used to be terrible...but: now its available for free on the developers website
The version isn't the same as on the market: its version 3.
Surprisingly it performs about as good as fpse and graphics are better (even with anti aliasing off). But: You only can enable auto frameskip and not manually choose the amount of skipped frames. Furthermore the menu is a bit buggy.
But since it's free why not give it a try?

I tested this app out last night. What do you guys think of it so far and it's future potential?

i thinks its awesome playing super mario 64 runs great
all my roms skip so maybe a update will fix the hiccups.
I can't even download this from the store with my Nexus S.... apparently my device doesn't support it.
I even tried reverting back to a stock ROM and trying but no dice
It works good on mine as well Mario 64 is perfect and looks great.

Im only able to play a max of 5 or so minutes and then itll crash. Any1 else experience this?
ive used romgripper++ and another i cant remember.
ive played both zeldas, super smash bros, and super mario. All with the same problem.
Where do you guys get yours from.
Thnx
I use emulator plus and rom gripper+++

I have also found that the more system intensive games tent to crash after extended play.
If you turn the max skip rate up from 2 to 10 the sound plays smooth but the game jumps more.
I presume with more optimization it will become faster and more stable.
What is the control system like. I usually find emulated console games a little bit hard to play with a touchscreen due to a lack of proper haptic feedback and the fact your fingers get in the way of the screen a bit.

FLASH PLAYER on the MYTOUCH 3G (its true)

I have downloaded and have been successful in getting 1 movie to play on our device.
It is a little bit laggy, but it is a start.

Newgrounds.com loads on my phone. Random video on newgrounds played slow but worked. Crashed once in a while. Progress. (I'm on CM7 RC1)
saw the cracked flash 10.1 apk on phandroid. was really hoping it would work for hulu since i havent done enough research on getting the hulu apk running on this device. no such luck though :/
YouTube works so well I deleted the app, flash heavy sites struggle though with overclock it isn't so bad

Use Dolphin HD Browser for this to work well. Stock browser will continuously crash.

Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
This is great. I know I'm a few months behind, but still. I downloaded it, and would agree that youtube is super smooth. I was not able to get Hulu to work, but I'm not worried about it (just thought I'd try since I saw it mentioned above).
However -
in a Quadrant Standard test, before installing Flash, I ranked consistently above 1100. Install flash, and my score drops to between 950 and 970. Uninstalled flash, and my score was 1131.
EDIT: I'm running the XM-8 VR 1.3 rom with some overclocking...
