angry birds - Streak 5 Themes and Apps

angry birds beta version is on market..
I kept reading about how this is a superb game etc etc the best of the iphmone and will change android gaming etc etc..
tbh its a bit pants...
same as worms and every other gravity lobber with pretty(ish) graphics..
does sum up what I thought about most iphmoaners though, they have very limited expectations..

Force closes for me after the splash screen. Shame, would like to give it a try.

did that the first time for me, try a reboot.

Can't find it on the market... (Beta w/stock O/S). Anyone else having the same issue?

Same here, I read that this was the game that broke thru all sorts of records on the Apple App market (earning the developers over £250K). So its here on Android, and lo and behold, it's just an above average game.
Not to belittle it though, but it isn't really all that spectacular!
Now for anyone who has played any NFS (need for speed) game on PC, then played their android conversion; now that's excellence! although relatively short (in terms of Zones) it achieves all the right marks in terms of cars, upgrades, unlocks, and Gyro sensitivity control! (not wibble-wobbling all over the place, unlike other racers).

Just found out, you can pinch-to-zoom to see the whole play area for bird-launch!
Still tedious though!!

With the force close, you don't even need to reboot. As bizarre as this sounds, just keep your finger on the screen when it's on the splash screen.
Not a clue why this works, just seems the force close is a problem with the game losing input focus or something.

Agreed, it's not the best.
Howerver to be fair it's still one of the better ones out there.
My wife has got Asphalt5 (102mb!) and krazy kart racing from the 'Samsung Apps' application on her Galaxy S, full versions for free as well!
I've borrowed them to test them out on the Streak and they're pretty good in playability

The game is ok, but nobody ever said it was anything special just a funny time killer. I have seen the effect of it at work, quick to play with 0 skill and makes people laugh with the cutsey pig and bird gfx. Im sure it will sell on android too and Im glad iphone developers are finally taking an interest in Android and will port some of the better apps..

Exactly! The truth is there are many more iphone devs out there than Android for now, and if they were smarter they would learn how to port to Android if just for the money. The thing about Angry Birds is that is still one of the most downloaded games for the app market. I loved it myself, but I took it for what it was from the beginning...... a 99 cent distraction that was also challenging at times. Yes it fails after splash sometime, but it is BETA for FREE.

An update is available and since I updated I haven't had a single crash

i have this game on iphone and galaxy s, and when it comes to playing this game in dell streak, when u throw the bird its very very blurry and im guessing its because of the 30fps plague , im actually thinking about returning this back because even when u move icons across the screen to.fast its like your throwing the icon with a rope ,

I play it on my streak, and then on my gal's iphone 4 and while the 4 is more responsive, the graphics do not look any better........not sure what's running on your phone, but you are seeing something that others aren't. This sounds like the old dpi arguments and the fact that magazines can't even print as high as people's camera's can take photos...........

angrybirds on iphone 4 is not compatable with retna display yet so it looks like crap, you should be comparing 3gs angry birds, and its smooth as butter, if u hold the streak a arms.length away the birds looks good, but up close u can see a big diffrence on why people with a htc evo had a heart attack with a 30fps cap alooot more people own that phone, some cant notice and some people can, it depends on your eyes i guess, my friend has a streak to and its identical to mine aswell, he never noticed the 30fps.issue untill i showed him an iphone 4 and a samsung gs scrollinga compared to a dell streak home screen scrolling , and yes movies are nice on a dell streak due ti movies being a lil under 30 fps anyways, i also did a scrolling comparison with opera mini and the dell streak cant even handle smooth scrolling with that,

well the problem isnt when the screen is stagnant so if i took a screen shot it would look just fine , its when u fling the birds , ( fast movement) is not smooth at all almost blurry, for example, if u move an icon across the screen very slowly the icon will follow your finger just fine, however if u move the icon across the screen very fast, its impossible for the streak to keep up with your finger due to the 30fps plague ,
its like mozilla with out smooth scrolling , when u scroll the screen its choppy, but when u select smooth scroll , its smooth as butter,
here is a great example of the people having a hard time understanding the issue
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9EcehkZKv4
make sure u view the video in 720p
heres another video that has a side to side comparison
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xe-Lxr-8x7g
i will be making a video of the dell streak 30fps vs a 60fps side by side soon if the links on top are not good enough

Why do you want to prove a point to someone who says it's not blurry and they are happy with it? There's a thread or complaint about this issue in multiple places on the web and I feel like if someone is bothered with it, and there isn't a fix, then don't buy the Streak because it doesn't fit your needs...........if it doesn't bug you and you are happy then buy it?? It's like buying a 3.5" screen phone and complaining that it's not 5"..........

Wow no one is complaining, I'm trying to help u understand an issue that the dell steak has, if you like your device then my comments are not for you obviously, i even spoon feed you a video of proof that 60fps is far suppirior than 30 fps, if you like the 30fps cap then all power to you,

Games you got?

I am bit disappointed from dell streak on game side after searching for months still no good graphic games for this 5 inch baby.... come on guys discuss some games what you got?
i hate it when my friend got i phone and showes me off what games he got like need for speed, street fighter, and list go on
what i have got
asphalt hd ( which seems like fake need for speed),
ragging thunder(another fake copy of any car racing game)
KO Boxing ( you cant beat the guy after 4th stage lol atleast i cant)
Hit penguin (am i 10 year old?)
Doodle jump (am i 5 year old?)
Find difference ( pointless even to comment on it
sorry cant think of anymore right now
but please come on folks....streak deserve better!
i have read somewhere that dell have mislead customers about the right graphic quality
android as far as going goes really does have a long long way to go. i really dont think android gaming will really kick off because iphone takes up most of the market. android is seen as the geeky alternative to iphone and properly always will do. the games on android are no better than the java games from 10 years ago. if android gaming is to really kick off then google needs to do what apple and microsoft have/are doing and invest money to entice devs
I like playing HOME RUN BATTLE 3D its got good Graphics aswell
Have a look here apparently its the only site dedicated to Android games
http://www.droiddoesgames.com/
the reason the games are not very good yet is because there is not alot of space on most android phones.so the apps have got to be small in size but this will change now with android 2.2 as you can start saving games to the sdcard .meaning large and more enhanced games

The Dell Streak doesn't have the greatest of dedicated graphics does it?
So it would be hard for it to run games of high graphics like the droid for instance.
But i am waiting for a N64 app for android!!!
im pretty sure the streak could handle most high graphics game

For those of you who have it working I have a question.. Is it REALLY worth the $4.99!? Ive been spoiled by .99c games. Honestly I doubt I purchase it just because of that. But if Im missing out and NEED to play this game could any body offer a brief explanation why? I have read about the game already but would like to hear from someone who is playing on an Atrix. Thanks ahead of time.

i bought it yesterday, but didn't play it for very long. it's a pretty fun game, and the controls were really intuitive. it's exactly how you would want to control a fps on a touch screen, left side of the screen for moving and right for camera.
the graphics were pretty amazing for a smartphone, i was impressed. and i didn't experience any sort of lag, which was even better (using the 1.0ghz enhanced kernel CM7)
i'd say it's worth the 5 dollars, i only got about half an hour into it so far and was already satisfied with my purchase. the animations are all voice acted so far, gameplay is fun, and controls are great for a touch screen.
I highly recommend this game. Well worth the $5. The controls are much better than the gameloft FPS's that I've played and the graphics are amazing. When you compare the price to a console game it's a no brainer purchase.
On the gameloft shooters they kinda auto aim for you (sorta like goldeneye on n64) but on this game once you press the fire button you can move your finger and move your aim, like having dual joysticks. Also the left joystick appears wherever you put your thumb (on the left half of the screen) eliminating the problem of your finger missing the joystick.
The cover system is easy to use and works well. It's nice to have that instead of just having to run around shooting. The enemy AI isn't as good as many console games but miles ahead of other mobile shooters. Enemies will move from cover to cover, one will stick back while the other tries to flank you, etc.
There are a few very minor glitches here and there, but it runs very well on the atrix.
Well worth it...just be ready to kiss your battery byebye

Haven't checked, but i haven't modified it, it's the one from aura 1.2.2.1 deblur aura. Might be the 3.2.0 market messes things up.
Definitely worth it,especially considering it'll get an update for multiplayer in the near future apparently (forgot where i read it but it was a legit source). And the game is great to play, it has great graphics and is very smooth and fast.

Hey all over in the photon forums I have figured out the mapping to be able to use a PS3 controller with the game. I would post a link but I am on mobile. Look in the photon themes and apps. The title is easy to see. Says Shadowgun available for tegra 2 devices. I have only tested the ps3 controller with the photon so hopefully it works for you guys too.

I'm using Aura 1.2.2.0 (just haven't made the upgrade to 1.2.2.2 yet) and had the "download is incompatible with your device" from the market, however, I was able to install via market.android.com
Also... Yesterday(?), there was an update available for the game. After installing it, the character was holding an invisible gun that shelled out little pink blocks. Apparently this was a pretty common problem. This was fixed by reinstalling the game after deleting /sdcard/Android/data/com.madfingergames.shadowgun

Sadly there is no way to make hdmi mirroring with the Atrix... Widescreen that is.
This game is great on both my Atrix and eee pad transformers. For anybody having glitches, just uninstall the game and reinstall. I had to do that on both devices afterthe update. Also for those who have an eee pad with dock, you can plug up an Xbox 360 controller and play the game like it is an Xbox 360 game, just loads faster.

Is the game worth it? It's a bit like asking if it's worth breathing. The graphics are amazing, the controls are very user-friendly and fun, the game runs without any sort of lag or problem and it's like Resident Evil 5 but for mobile phones.
This is the first game that i actually find worth buying for my Atrix.

The Atrix does not do HDMI Mirroring in Widescreen.
I suck as FPS and I'm a sucker for eye candy, but I definitely think this is a 10/10. Very well polished game. Some FPS pros might get bored of it but I'm not good enough at the genre to make an informed decision lol
Definitely with $5 or whatever it was.

Not many applications for the Tab!

Hi guys!
Is it just me or the galaxy tab is really bad at running applications? I cant believe that running a 2D game such as xconstruction would run extremely bad on the tab due to the streching of the screen. In addition, I have downloaded many applications and games and ended up uninstalling around 60% of them because they dont run very well, while others show nothing but a black screen!
I am really shocked by the poor performance of the tab! This device is full of conflicts! Some 3D games run very well while most run badly. Browsing is good but pdf viewing is laggy and bad! I have always admired google and defended Tabs with honeycomb against iPad, but I think I will have to revert back to iPad for the sake of a market filled with applications and excellent documents viewing quality.
I hate being biased, but the Tab 10.1 lacks the performance despite of the Dual Core processor and 1Gb ram. What do you guys think? I welcome hearing positives and negatives about it. Would anyone be kind enough to recommend apps that are fully working with no bugs? The same goes to games suggestions too!

Well I don't know about u guys Buh the game incompatibility issue is killing me...I really want to enjoy gaming on my DNA....we all know the gpu is good enough for most graphic intensive games out there, and even tough that screen is demanding, this phone should have no problem handling games. I have been forwarding reports to game devs via email....and I know they will work on it if we pressure them...so post the game, the issue u having and developer...I will forward it to them.....I am one hell of a gamer and I can't watch my DNA sit there like that,when it has one of the mist powerful CPUs and GPUs out there.
