Welcome to the Ultimate Galaxy S2 HD Game Compatibility Guide!!
I felt that many game comparability lists online are either out of date or providing not enough information, so I decided to compile my own list for everyone to enjoy. I am going to include HD games and other popular titles.
So here is my dedicated (and will be continuously updated ) full game compatibility list (WITH VERSIONS)
This list requires Chainfire 3D (Pro highly reccomended) to run some of the games. Plugins will be listed with each entry. Chainfire 3D can be found HERE :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427
Enjoy!
NO CHAINFIRE REQUIRED :
This list is kind of a no-brainer but I thought I would include it just to be nice.

NVIDIA PLUGIN :
BackBreaker HD - Game runs fine but has a texture problem with the players. Chainfire has included a shader that removes the error messages.
Galaxy on Fire 2 (1.02) - works great, no texture problems like some have reported with other versions
Pinball HD - Works beautifully
T-Racer HD (1.1.0) - Seems to have some texture problems on menu but game itself is very playable
ShadowGun - Runs great *NEW*
Sprinkle
Monster Madness - Doesn't Work
History Great Battles Medieval - Doesn't load past menus
POWERVR PLUGIN :
Gangstar: West Coast Hustle (Galaxy S version) - Runs great but has funny fall-down glitch during cutscenes
Need for Speed : Hot pursuit - Works fine
Shadow Guardian HD (Galaxy S version) - version 1.0.2 works
The Settlers HD - Works Great
Sacred Odyssey - Doesn't Work : Loads the main menu but crashes upon starting a new game
QUALCOMM PLUGIN :
Dead Space
Need for Speed shift
If you have anything to add that I have not included, just let me know, I will test it and include it on the list.
I do not condone piracy and will not provide links to APKs of specific versions. Thank you.
Thanks to Chainfire for making an amazing App. All of these games were tested on Touch X Power+ ROM 1.0 with Siyah's Kernel 2.0.
I install Blackstab version for S1 and it works fine on S2 with PVR plugín.
You don't need the Tegra 2 plugin for the Samauri game. There's a version on the Market that runs flawless on GSII
Dungeon Defenders First Wave works for me without any need for Chainfire 3D.
Any news about this?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Anyone else have a problem with pinball hd for tegra?
I bought it through the market and it worked great. since the last update though the menu text has vanished. see attachment
If a new version has compatibility issues, I would recommend finding an older version around the net. You already paid for it, so it isn't piracy.
Cool topic, I reserve this post and will update it as I will buy most games and test them.
What I can say so far is that every game I've tested using emulators (PSX, GBA, SNES) has worked flawlessly.
good point, thanks
Do anyone tested riptide gp 1.1? It loads for me but exit to OS when starting a race.
some of the games show messed up graphics with all whites any idea?
Can anyone confirm shadow guardian? been itching to play it
Ive got Dead Space working using Qualcomm plugin,
Need For Speed Shift also works using Qualcomm
I installed Gangstar: Miami Vindication on my SGS2 running android 2.3.3. and all 3d objects like houses, people, cars, almost everything were grayscale/ white. Houses were white boxes... Where is the problem? I have seen this for few more games. one I remember was splinter cell which was working but all was white with shadows.
Any news about Gameloft games such as Shadow Guardian,Backstab releasing for the SII?I dont want to root my device for them.waiting for their proper version for the SII
This game "Gangstar: Miami Vindication" is lagging when I use my S2 device.
People/Driving Movement is stopped intermittently.
Anyone experienced the same issue?

If version numbers are posted I will link to gameloft wapstore to purchase.
If no version is added or it states anything else , it wont be a compatible game so google them
NOTE TO ALL : I will not mention where to get these so dont ask...

I tried ShadowGun 1.0.2 (by lion) but it crashed to desktop after the intro / loading
Is there something special I need to do with Chainfire3D?
:edit:
NM. Figured it out. Market version works fine. This game is definitely epic!
you have to rreduce texture and have to disable mapbuffer in chainfire settings
plugin should be default
I do not even use chainfire for shadowgun or any game
updated op , new games + video
Need For Speed - Shift v1.0.73
Works like a dream on my Dell Streak!
Grand theft auto 3 tested, also sonic cd.
Wil update op tomorrow with nfs shift etc
Grand Theft Auto 3 is a bit of a pain. It keeps lagging so bad as to be unplayable. But then it will be smooth as silk just long enough to make me want to play it (again).
In order to get it as playable as possible, I changed the build.prop rendering value to mdp (from gpu) and turned off all screen animations (so no super slow crt off animation) . SetCPU to 1.19 with OnDemand governor and use Airplane mode while playing the game.
Oh yeah, DSC 0.61b
Now you have mdp set install chainfire and tick reduce textures as well.Also I think turn music doen as radio stations increase lag (sound is ok just the music imo)

the Widgets list is good BUT we already have a dedicated Gamer's thread that's already in the proper section. plus has actual links to the marketplace for the games listed. it's already extensive and has people that confirm the list of what's working or not. not just listing games period cuz its in the marketplace. If you want to see it just click on the link in my sign.
I think the Widgets list/thread would be a great idea since there is not one yet.
edit: just checked your list out again..lmfao You have alot up there that's not compatible with Prime. they won't even show up in marketplace for Prime. you list alot of cracked apps or ones that had to have build.prop edited to get to work on Prime..lol.

most of the time ones not listed in marketplace have to be hacked or whatever to get to work. Or if you somehow get a hold of an apk from an Acer500 or Xoom tablet of that game. Since those devices run the same resolution. Plus there is no way for you to link to getting the game because since its for another device, it'll be considered Wares. And its against forum rules to post links to apk that are paid apps for free. that would be what alot of those Gameloft and other games you listed would be.
@Blackinjun I need link to Madden12 to update like the rest in my OG post.
to the op, I seriously think we need a widget one though. to show ones that work and those optimized for tablets. maybe even a brief description of them. Out of the box. Prime definitely lacks a good amount of choice for Widgets. I'd be interested in that kind of thread as there are people who love Widgets and the functionality they bring without having to open up an app.

plus no need to close thread. just moved to the right section. plus I'm sure people more than interested in the Widgets portion of it. I know I am. I seen something up there that I'm going tl check out. wouldn't of known about it if I didn't see your list. so THANKS!

If your having trouble running Plants vs zombies on your Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 or 5.0
(my game played fine until the night levels)
The game would lag, freeze, and touch controls would stop working.
then download chainfire 3d (Root Required!)
Open the "Per app settings"
and scroll to "Plants vs. Zombies"
now click the check box next to: "reduce texture quality"
You can also use "disable map buffer emu" but it's not as important.
The game should now run super smooth!!
how ever since we reduced the quality, the sprites of the zombies do not look as good.
But at least it plays
I have attached some in game screenshots take a look
-----
Note:
The fourth screen shot is blurry because it was taken while the game is playing, so NO, it dose not look that bad,
but it should give you a general idea of how the colors will look.
thanks! will try this if I also encounter the same problems in the night levels
I have the SGP 5.0 yp-g70 and it had trouble at first without chainfire and no overclocking. Then i oced to 1.2 GHz and it works fine. I havent used chainfire extensively but i find that it isnt needed for most apps except GTA III and maybe other gameloft games like modern combat (on GTA i still get lag but there is a way to fix it)
Need a new game to play? Something which awesome graphic? Something new? Then take a look at this
Google Play developer Henrik Rydgård has made an PSP emulator that after the last update is capable of running the game Daxter pretty well on our Note II. There is of course some minor FPS lags, and cutscenes dosen't seems to work - But it's still playable. If you've spent hours and hours of your childhood with the Jak & Daxter then you should diffently try it out
So far i've also tried these games:
Tekken 6 - Unplayable (hangs at loading screen)
God of War Chains of Olympus - Unplayable (extremly slow FPS, but works)
Emulator dosen't require a Bios, BUT it does require a ISO of the original UMD, as always DO NOT ASK FOR DOWNLOADS! Xda does NOT support piracy - You'll have to rip the UMD yourself which requires that you have access to a PSP with CFW.
If you want to support the developer there is also a donate edition of the app.
You can get the emulator here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5wcHNzcHAucHBzc3BwIl0.
NOTE - The PS3 sixaxis controller does work with this game using touch emulation.
thanks for the tip

Currently i've have only tried Daxter with success - A list can be found here:
http://www.ppsspp.org/compatibility.html
This looks promising
http://forums.ppsspp.org/showthread.php?tid=574
Very promising indeed! Best emulator project ever IMO
Tried Tekken Dark Resurrection today, there is stil some work to be done, but if you enable frame skipping it's OK in the practice level. Background music does load but only for a few seconds.
Can't wait to see the next relase of the emulator - imagining being able to just plug your Note in a HDMI dock and play tekken with your pals
Buildbot
Just found out that there is automated builds of the project - It is being updated serveral times a day so if you've got a game that currently dosen't work you should try to download one of these builds:
http://buildbot.orphis.net/ppsspp/
I've have downloaded the latest release, and it fixes the missing sound problem i was having when playing Dragonball Shin Budokai 2
There is of course still work to do, since there is some minor audio issues, but in general the is one of the most playable games (played it like for 3 hours yesterday)
So if you got it lying around grab that PSP and dumb it
On a little side note i've noticed that when using my Note 2 in the Smart Dock the performance of PPSSPP would significally drop:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42781190#post42781190
So if you want better performance use it without the dockingstation.
Is there any game that works without any bugs or lag?
Little Big Planet seems to be working well enough
