I tried Quake and Toonwarz, but couldn't get them to work correctly (control error in Quake, nothing happening in Toonwarz). Are there any FPS games that work? My son's birthday is Saturday and I would like to give him his gift with at least one FPS game in addition to the other cool stuff that's there...
The PSX emu works and I've played a few games on there.
Other than that, I haven't tried any FPS games.
Does NOVA work?

Most of the Gameloft games work, but only via black market outlets, and/or from various devices Moto Sholes, Tab. Ive tested Nova, Brothers in Arms 2, Modern Combat, Asphalt, Need For Speed (wow!), Hawx, Dungeon Hunter...
All work for the most part with minimal cut screen glitches where scale issues show.
Did you do anything special to get dungeon hunter to work?
Mine just keeps fc'ing on me. I transferred and installed the apk from my copy on Droid 2 (which I got during the free day). What else do I need to do?

I couldn't get Let's Golf to open for me.
Most Droid or Tab versions of games seem to be working mostly for the NC.. Just played Madden 11 demo (off Droid X game dl). Not too shabby of a game.
Thanks, guys! I'll get cracking, then.
Dark area works
Is it possible to download apk's directly to the NC sd card or internal memory from the browser? I don't see any settings that allow you to choose a download destination.
Also how do you clear browser history? No options for this in default browser.
I use Firefox for Android, and I think it's possible there.
I took the ones from data\app on my phone and placed them in system\app on my Nook Color and changed the permissions. After a reboot, I can find them in the launcher, but when I press on them they close instantly.
Has anyone gotten any of these games to work?
I've gotten Dungeon Hunter to work really well just by installing it normally...
Of course I'm fully rooted with market and everything.

Yes, I've had some success with gameloft, I posted in another thread, "apps that work....I think" But it has grown to twenty something pages, and games are not addressed specifically.
Loaded and working on my NC, (these came from my SCaptivate froyo 2.2)
Working
*Gangster
*Hawx
*NOVA
*Sandstorm (need to stop game and then resume to clear up horizontal black bar)
Not working (for me) Assassin's Creed/Uno/Let's Golf
It is an aspect ratio issue, the controls are offset and don't work correctly.
*Assassin's Creed, is the only one I've tested that responds the same way as yours (paul22000), loads then closes.
I've seen, in another thread (not the one referenced above) that Asphalt 5 works, if I remember correctly they used a tablet version. They explained how to get the correct download and it seemed well thought out, but I have not tried it myself.
Asphalt 5 (tab version) and UNO (tab version) work without a hitch.
Nova, Hero of Sparta, & Dungeon Hunter all work for me.
"HD" versions of spider man and dungeon hunter works great.
I have the following working:
NOVA
Dungeon Hunter
Asphalt 5
Dungeon Hunter works perfectly. Hero of Sparta works but the controls are offset, as someone else reported. Basically the hand controls appear where they would if the screen were WVGA instead of WSVGA. I was able to install both normally on my rooted NC.
How are you guys downloading these games?
I only have the two free games they gave out for the month of December.

NOVA 3.1.3 (galaxy tab version) crashes as soon as I open it. Any solutions?
I installed Dungeon Hunter HD and Asphalt 5 3.1.3.0 and it tells me i need more space on my sd card.
My sd card is formatted for the NC root. Obviously, my NC has been rooted already, can i re-format my sd card for more space? or do i need to leave the sd image alone? I don't know if the nook boots from the sd or what.
Can I re-format my SD without encountering problems on the NC?

Yes, you can reformat. And just so you know, this question has been asked like a billion times.
The Galaxy Tab versions Dungeon Hunter and Asphalt 5 DO work here (I haven't purchased any others to test). The only obvious issue I've had with them is that the MP4s for the Intros and Cutscenes don't play, so be aware of this. Didn't see this mentioned already, so I thought I'd put it out there.
The reason for this is the 1024x600 resolution (not baseline profile) of these video files. I ran the LOGO.mp4 of Asphalt 5 through handbrake and after that the NC's built in video app was able to play it. However, Asphalt doesn't like the replacement file and asks to re-download the original.
While the intro isn't all that important, it was just a test to see if it could be replaced. Perhaps it can't because of some checksum, etc? Hopefully not too much (of import) is missed by the games just skipping over these files that the NC can't play.
I remember being able to play Asphalt HD on my NC on 1/13/10. Asphalt would simply skip over the (unplayable 1024x600) cutscene video and continue to the game itself. But since I installed that the latest update the game displays a dialog message saying "sorry could not play this file" before shutting it's self down.
So I tried resizing the cutscene video with Dvdcatalyst to 854x480 and uploading the cropped file to the nook color. But when I launched Asphalt I got the same message that epakrat75 got asking me to download 22 megabytes. Which ultimately replace the cropped cutscene with the original but unplayable cutscene.
Sad thing is I know that the game plays well on the nook color because I was able to do so only a few days ago. If only I could find a way to get the game to skip the cutscene without crashing.
Sent from my Rooted Nook Color
So far I've played every gameloft game on the nook color (galaxy tab versions) only asphalt, modern combat, Spiderman, uno, ad modern combat work. Every other game (gangstar, Nova, etc.) Cranes out on the video or gets really fidgety with the popular notification so you can't get past it. But Ive Berenice having lots of fun with modern combat and Spiderman recently.

I tried to buy Gangstar Miami for samsung to install on my Nook, but I get this:
Sorry, Gangstar: Miami Vindication HD is not available for your phone at the moment. from the Gameloft website.
How the hell do you get without paying. I've try a few from google but once installed I get this is not an orignal copy of the Gangstar Miami, then Sandstorm, and dungeon hunter displays the same message.
Can someone PM a good like for gangstar? Thanks.
I've had similar luck as the others above with the galaxy tab versions. I was able to get spiderman, dungeon hunter and uno working, but after the sdcard data downloads everything works, until i quit the game and try again, then it won't work...
Anyone have any successes with gameloft games?
does somebody know when or how we can play gameloft HD games on our O2X?
i bought 2 games Dugeon Hunter 2 and Star Batallion the games seems to start up but then the games crashes or sometime's the game start but the then i'm missing parts of the screen or i can't use on screen navigation.
Did you restore your apps/data with TB by any chance? I've found a bunch of games will FC after doing that for some reason. Uninstall, re-install and see if they'll load then.
Just tried a fresh install of Let's Golf and it loads fine.
yes i did. did a fresh install and it works again :d thnx
So as the title states, I'm trying to take advantage of some of the killer deals being offered in the "new" Google Play Store. I downloaded Dead Space, Shadowgun, NOVA 2 and a few others.
The issue I seem to be having are with the more "graphically" intensive games, like the ones I previously mentioned, fully installing and or running on the device.
I suspect that the apps believe I'm using an iPad but I know others have been able to run these games from their Androidified Touchpad.
Was just curious if anyone knows a workaround or a solution on getting these games to install and/or run properly?
Thank You

No, the apps in the app store will never think your device is an iPad. Apps might look at the device's build.prop to determined compatibility. There is a modded build.prop you can download that changes the device to trick the market and apps that you're running a compatible device.
Samsung Captivate CM9 - Glitch Kernel | HP TouchPad CM9 - Bricked Kernel
Yeah, it's definitely not thinking you're on an iPad. However, it may be kind of similar since there is no official Android Touchpad, we have to mimic other devices. You may want to try the "rohan" update in the Dev section as it modifies parts of your build.prop. I was able to Shadowgun to download and start up. I still had problems with Dead Space, and havent' tried the Gameloft games yet.
I can confirm Dead space does NOT work with Rohan build prop on cm9 alpha 2. ShadowGun works great, its the best mobile game I've played, looks like gears of war on xbox360!!
I haven't been able to get any of the EA games to install (download additional files after market install). Tried with and without rohan mod. Nova 2 and Shadowgun work fine. Nova 2 was a kinda buggy
I also downloaded SHADOWGUN, NOVA 2, and DEAD SPACE. Shadowgun works fine on stock CM9 with no mods to build.prop...I tried to edit my build.prop and ended up having to restore a backup. if it does not work on CM9 i am thinking of loading my CM7 backup and editing the build.prop in there then update to CM9 with the games installed....dunno if it will work but might be worth a shot.
went off this link:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7709-gameloft-compatibility-thread-with-working-version-s/
Edit:
CM7 with build.prop set to HTC Desire S allowed all GAMELOFT games to install and function (backstab, nova 2, and 9mm all work fine) DEADSPACE requires a 3g connection so i dont know how to get that going at all....
did HTC Desire S from info off this site:
http://www.everythingabouttablets.net/2012/01/02/get-asphalt-6-hd-running-on-your-cm7-touchpad/
I too can't get Dead Space to download the game data. I changed my build prop to 3 different devices, and nothing works. Bummer, I really wanted to play this game.
Funny that dead space works perfectly for me on cm9 a2. Guess I might have been lucky..

Dead space works fine on my stock tp running cm9 nightly 3/3 or 3/4
I finally got Dead Space working on mine. No matter what build.prop I would change it to, it would not download the game data. So I downloaded the data with my evo3d and then transferred it over. Working perfectly now.
Hi everybody,
are you able to play any gameloft games on your ms2 with cm10?
EA games like Dead Space and NFS Most Wanted are working finde, also GTAIII is working(damn laggy but working).
But i'm not able to run gangstar or nova for example.
Just list here which games you are running, and which you'd recommend.
It would also be nice if you add which version of cm10 AND much more important which version of the game you are using.
I would add the first post with a list of working/recommended games if you like.
Thx guys!
Modern Combat 3 seems to be working fine with the latest 10/11 build. Never got it to work before, I'm guessing due to a lack of free RAM.
Yes, it seems that pretty most of Gameloft games have troubles with CM10 compatibility. Some of them are not compatible with ICS as they are not running on CM9 as well. And some seem to have troubles with our hardware, or drivers, as they run on Rondoval's CM9 and fail on Tezet's CM9/10. Here is my practice:
NOVA: running, but has white screen. Seems to be a display driver problem (worked fine on CM9).
NOVA 2 HD: not running at all.
Gangstar Miami Vindication HD: not working (worked on CM9).
Gangstar Rio: seems to be working well.
Splinter Cell Conviction HD - partially works, but has multitouch bug. That is when you actively use 2 fingers simultaneously (i.e. running and aiming), the game crashes with some kind of overflow in logcat. Seems to be the grafics driver error, because the same error reproduced in all Gameloft games on the Tezet's CM9, but on the Rondoval's one worked well. However, the game is playable when you try not to use 2-fingers touch - but not recommended, of course.
Asphalt 5 HD, 6 HD - no problems at all, recommended.
BackStab HD: seems to be working.
bad
yeah yeah...
these games are cool.
i'm running even chaos ring on my MS2.
my whole problem is with Rage of Bahamut. besides it's laggy, i'm having trouble with the screen and it crashes all system also.

And maybe those one whould help you to make GTA less laggy ?
(Had those lign into system/build.prop with a system explorer : mount R/W, open in text editor)
