I noticed earlier this week that none of Gameloft's HD games were available on their website for the Captivate, so I e-mailed them today asking when they (specifically NOVA and Modern Combat) would be made available for our phone and here is the response I received:
"Hi!
Thank you for your interest in Gameloft games. Unfortunately, we currently do not have any plans to add those game to support your device. This may change in the future so please visit our Website periodically for the latest information at gameloft.com"
Does anyone know if I can just select that I am with Sprint on an EVO during the purchase and receive and run the games just fine? I am guessing yes but I wanted to double check before I spent the money to buy the games.
(My phone is rooted and I have enabled non-market apps.)
Try it. You won't.

what a dumb a customer service. all the new HD or 3D games from companies work on the Vibrant. I have tested each of these games mentioned below. Not only do they run, they run smoooooooooooooth.
Sandstorm
Nova
3D Heavy Gunner
Skies of Glory
Real Football 2010
Hocky 2010
Homerun 3D
Asphalt 5
Raging Thunder 2
I have asphalt runs great
I won't say how I got it but you can imagine
I figured since I have the same game for iphone that it was ok just this once

yep just select different phone that is supported, thats what I did. n.o.v.a runs great on my captivate. They need to get it together.saying a phone isn't supported when it runs the game better than the phones that are supported.lol
hmm gona have to try this out!
Asphalt and Nova work well
I have been playing Dungeon Hunter HD and it works great. Very smooth playback so far.
If you got to the website on your phone, atleast for me on the vibrant it will let you get some of the games. DO NOT get Hero of Sparta though because it causes Touchwiz to loop forever when you start up your phone.
Nova
Gangster
Assassins Creed
dungeon hunter
all worked fine for me though
Does it matter what phone you put in? I mean are they really different versions of the game? I'm assuming there's no variation, but...
For those of you getting these games on your Captivate, which phone are you putting in as the device when it asks you?
one warning here....Asphalt 5 is AWESOME but ONLY up to version 3.1.3. I am not sure what they did after that but they broke hardware acceleration.

I'm using 3.1.8 and it seems fine. Did it used to be even smoother? 3.1.8 seems smooth to me and it doesn't stutter or anything. Maybe they put a 30 fps cap or something?
It is a LOT smoother. Try finding 3.1.3 and then let me know. Yes 3.1.8 looks fine unless you have seen how much better it is with hardware acceleration.
I was hoping to make a video during the weekend and post it on youtube or something.
I have all these games and they run better on the galaxy S than the iPhone 4 or any other phone they're available for. This phone is so much more powerful and the absolutely stunning screen contrast knocks even the iPhone 4's screen when playing games.
do you have to be rooted? can i just buy it dl it from comp and sideload it using the wonder machine?
you should be able to do it without root. Btw it does matter which phone you pick, games are crippled for certain devices, forgot which ones. And uh, 3.1.8 asphalt is smooth as silk, give it a shot.
p.s. hows dungeon hunter hd? i looked at it but didnt know if it was worth the buy or not.

Um... I had 3.1.8 from the market. You may think it's smooth, as did I, but you won't truly see the light until you switch to 3.1.3.

Yeah mate, try 3.1.3 and then let us know if it really looks that smooth anymore? You will be VERY surprised at how smooth it can really be.
Unfortunately there is little hope gameloft will fix it but I contacted them anyway.

I have Asphalt 3.1.3. I can't get Nitrous to work most of the time. The button lights when I hit it, but Nitrous doesn't fire. On a random occasion, it does fire. Anyone else having this issue? I do have a screen protector on.

You're welcome. Feeling bad for the developer because everybody is taking it for granted by rating it low simply because it takes a long time to download / lag (because they're using a older device) / purchased it at full price / etc.
I mean come on, it's a good game and a lot of effort was put into it.
Nice. Thanks.
Does the game run smooth on your Nexus S? It's not smooth on mine. The graphics are all laggy like less than 20 fps.
WOW, very nice!
it's been several hours, and i've had it with it...
the download breaks down every other file -_-
and then you have to start it all over again, more or less
that's odd. mine downloaded fine in about 15 seconds...

It seems the game doesn't work on my i9023(unrooted).
I don't understand why.
Is it a bug or something?
I almost turned off every other app to make room for enough ram.
Need second confirmation.
if you still have problem downloading grab the full package from the developers http://dungeondefenders.com/androidmobile

you have to restart your phone after installing the game

I downloaded it on friday from market. Its works fine on my i9023.
Only it was a lot of download of files before the first run.
The whole download took about 30 minutes.
This actually pisses me off.the people(including me) dont get any bonus,extra or what ever for buying the app.this is a big slap in the face for early adopters

Dl and works fine, lvl 10 so far. Kinda laggy at times with alot of monsters come out, but still very playable. I try and do online play but always get kicked out...i guess they dont like lvl10 ppl
This is laggy as hell for me, and im clocked at 1.3ghz, uninstalled.
Is it actualyl smooth for anyone? Or are ya just putting up with the frames?
Nintendo DS Emulator got released for droid:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.chaos.nds4droid&feature=search_result
I don't think it takes advantage of dual-core processors yet though, nor does it seem to be tablet optimized. Since it just got released its probably not very optimized at all, but hey it works!
I tried playing Pokemon Platinum and i found it too slow to play. Has anyone else had better luck with other games?

I can't even get it to open, just fc's everytime I try to launch it.

To get it to launch you have to put the xoom in portrait mode, then launch the app. It wont launch in landscape mode...lol
I'd be tempted to buy and backup just in case it gets removed from the market or something, and to support the dev's work on getting it optimized. But $6 is way too steep for a app before anyone's reporting it being playable yet.
Version 1.1.4, the latest at the moment I believe, launches on mine in portrait only also, but games are so slow.
In pokemon soulsilver, it took 5 minutes to get the character to take 3 steps left to walk downstairs from his room.
Also not keen about switching between buttons and touch screen all the time, but this is minor compared to the games running at a glacial pace.
But, ya, it is new and I'm sure the dev can squeeze a lot more out of it.
I cant seem to use the touchscreen when playing this...are you guys having issues with the touchscreen as well?
-.- tap the button on the top left and the touchscreen will be available to be used.
been out for ages. not news.

It could use some help when loading screens. Kinda slow, but hey, other than that it is great. Fun, straightforward, smooth gameplay. How about an online leaderboard?

Lags quite a bit on my galaxy s captivate running 2.2.
After a couple of restarts it began to run a bit better but there's still quite a bit of lag, for example when dashing through a star.
Overall, doesn't seem nearly as polished as the iOS version. My old second gen iPod touch would run this game perfectly.
I hope the developers actually support the app and iron out all the bugs, not just forget about it after the initial release.

Runs well on my Galaxy S (Android 2.3.3).
It also runs quite slow and FC's every now and then on my Galaxy S 2.2.1 at 1.5Ghz... I was a little disappointed. My friend with a G2 with CM7 at 1.57Ghz could barely run it as well. The funny thing is that it ran smooth as could be on my girlfriend's Aria running 2.2 @806Mhz when her phone barely runs Angry Birds... When it runs it is fun though.
runs a little laggy on galaxy s 4g but great game i hope they come out with more I went and bought it after I saw this post.

only lcd density 240 is working with the game, as soon as you have something else the unicorn dies instantly at the start ;( you cant do anything ;(
Yeah I've heard as much. Unfortunate, to say the least. Haven't messed with my DPI in a while, in part because a few apps just didn't play well. I wish i could still do it, and hopefully in time I won't have reasons to not do so on my end. This was even before RUA so I never noticed it. Hoping for an update .. for more than a few issues.

So the recent update removed open faint and that seems to have done nothing to improve performance this game i think has shown me how bad adobe air really is... There is no other reason why a game this simple lags so bad that it's unplayable.... I got my. 99 cents worth out of it but if every adult swim game ideas going to be as quick and dirty as this then I don't see paying for them at all

Yea, I found it a bit funny bc the description says its not compatible with tablets, yet Amazon website has a green compatible check mark next to the Xoom. Sow sadly it does start on a black screen on the xoom like its not going to work but if u keep taping the screen and tring to move stuff to the screen it will work.
I just loaded the app and it started. What kernel are you using? Are you on OC GPU? I don't like that OC stuff so I'm stock. I'm up to level 40 and it hasn't sputtered or crashed (knock on morning wood).

I actually am using stock and am not rooted. I was thinking about flashing for sdcard support but I think Im gonna wait and see what 3.2 brings.
The game is awesome I used to play it back in my iOS days.

It seems to work for me.. the 'not for tablets' is probably because it isn't optimized as well as you have to scroll the screen a little bit up/down to see the top are of the screen for putting towers etc and down to put them on the lowest part of the playing field. Otherwise.. seems to work great for me.
I get an Unauthorized Request error when I start it up. I click OK and it closes .

Anyone have a work around? It begins to play the game fine. I select the level and difficulty, it shows me where all of the buttons are, and then the map turns black. The game continues on, and I can use the in-game controls, but can't see anything. Guess I'm just beat

I'm using a custom kernel. Try going to the dev section and looking in the Notubuntu thread. Flash that kernel and try it. Maybe its kernel related. Mines works fine everytime. I'm on wave 70 and no hiccups.
By the way I'm not overclocked or anything. I'm using the stock honeycomb also. If you guys are using a different ROM it could be an issue.

For me the trick is to do a two finger re-size on the black background, this causes the play field to be redrawn and works great.
Anyone have this issue? See the small text?
Man this game is harder than it looks. How the hell do I stop the helicopters from getting past? I feel like I'm upgrading the early buildings and its killing me!
I noticed that when my game ended and my name was on my high score list. I could not read the list. Either the text was microscopic or was not working correctly.

Early on drop a middle launcher along the aircraft flight path, then lightning generators later in the round.
I have the same "small text" issue with the high scores screen - this is probably the reason this game isn't "approved" for tablets.
