So when I got my prime I was looking at all these cool games and then - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I found out I can't play any of my old ones on ICS.
goodbye mc3, ck zombies, & dead space.
oh well, at least I received a good unit.

You could try to copy your apks from an older device.

That won't work. ICS broke most of those games. Plus those games aren't natively supported on the Prime. So he had to use another device apk to get it to work. MC3 has been updated tl support ICS but you have to find another device apk that will be compatible with prime. Either an A500 or Xoom. More than likely Xoom because its on ICS already. I'm looking for that version also. Dead Space kinda worked on ICS but it forced you to play in portrait mode..lol. looking for a new version of that also.

I was running an a500 version of mc3 that I transferred from my tf101. stuck in bootloops. ck zombies won't even get that far.

I too really wanna try out Modern Combat 3 on the Prime. I have never even tried it at all yet lol. I saw on Youtube someone was playing Counter Strike on the Prime! Looked legit.

that was one of the first things i wanted to do, to check the difference in load times for mw3 on tf201 over tf101.

when I was on HC on prime, MC 3 played perfectly n played great. even played online against others. also a warning, don't bother trying to edit build prop. just to play some dang games...lmfao unless you want a bricked prime. already had a few people here learn the hard way. remember, curiosity killed the cat
dead space also looked n played great on HC. I miss those games.

Kind of addicted to online, started the game a couple of weeks ago and I'm rank 51 lol.

Deyam! nice. I'm only on 28 lol. I really wish I didnt like the game so much so I can permanently move over to ICS. I keep going back to HC so I can play. Started playing Dead Space again too. Great graphics but gets boring quick.

OnLive released for Andrdoid

OnLive's gaming app was released today for Android... you can find it on the market at
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.onlive.client
I don't have my NC with me, but I tried it out on my phone. It works at least! I didn't really get to play much but hey, it's there
FYI, there is a special controller that is coming later this month too (tomorrow?), although it's supposed to be $50. Hopefully it at least comes with a free game.
PS. if you sign into onlive through the app, you can get Lego Batman for free.
Anyone have the .apk file so we can try it out? It doesn't show up in the market for my T-mobile Samsung galaxy s 2
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
People in the article on engadget mentioned it was posted at http://onlivefans.com. I didn't find it just by looking quickly, but maybe try a search
I got it, ill post it soon. It's running laggy on my NC but I bet its my crappy 3mb internet connection, since i keep getting a message that my connection dropped lower than the minimum
Here is the apk hope it works
Ok, cool. I'm interested in the new controller they have coming out. I did not find much information on if you could use other controllers, but it sounded like "no" for Android: http://onlivefans.com/showthread.php?14160-The-Controller-FAQ
I haven't been able to try it on my NC yet, but on my phone the graphics were fairly blurry but it was mostly pretty responsive (just navigating the UI and playing the first couple seconds of Lego Batman). I was on 3G because Verizon's having another 4G outage apparently, so I'll have to see how it goes on my home wifi or 4g when it comes back.
Anyone having issues with not finding in Market or the apk not side loading likely can go to onlive.com/hardware_mobile and click the Market link that shows there. Had to change my dpi to 160 to install but worked great after that. I had to go this route on my 2 bionics and the NC.
It runs great on CM 7.1.0.1 (Stable)
I tried playing games on my Nook Color like N.O.V.A. 2 HD and after getting my @$$ handed to me in the game because the NC wasn't fast enough to respond to my controls I tried the OnLive game service and I have to say it's pretty sweet.
I didn't notice any lag whatsoever when I played a few minutes of LEGO: Batman and I was using the on-screen touch controls the whole time since I don't have their universal game controller.
I'm not a serious gamer but my 5 year old is really getting into it. He already is monopolizing time on my other android devices playing games. Since LEGO: Batman is his favorite at the moment I've been forced to drag out the old Playstation 2 console out of the closet. Now that I've got this to work on my NC I can get rid of the PS2 finally and contain all of his gaming on the NC.

Gameloft support? Currently all GL games 99 cents

One of the main reason I bought the device is for gaming. It seems a lot of the gameloft games ive purchased previously is not compatible with this device. When do you think we're cooking to see gameloft supports this device? I really wanna try modern combat 3 on this thing specially

Approximately in 2012....or never. They didn't support the original TF so they may very well continue the trend.

I'd hold off as development for the tegra 3 is still sorta new...tegra 2 really has just come into its own recently.
If you look at the Tegra zone games...there are a few coming out soon that look pretty decent...and a few out now that are nice if your willing to pay.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately though I don't want to buy the games again. At least not from gameloft site like I used to. I've been buying them from the market so I can download them to any of my device. Just sad to see prime not being compatible.
Honestly, and I'll probably be burned for this, if gaming was your focus behind purchasing a tablet, you should have gone with an Ipad 2. They have an unmatched collection of games, a lot of which are pretty damn top notch.
MC3 works fine with my prime...
Before ordering my prime, I had a Tegra 2 (a500) tablet, and I had purchased a couple of Gameloft titles that worked fine. I hope these can cary over to the prime! (If Tegra 2 Gameloft titles work, then Tegra 3 should too?) just a thought!

Why couldn't you just take the apk from your old device and transfer it over to the prime? It should install fine.
thats the first thing i did. Its not that it wont install but it'll say not compatible with my device. And these are games that were made for Acer a500 that works on my Acer a100. I changed my build prop to make market think I have an a500. Both Tegra 2 devices.
gameloft would be smart to make games work with the prime and tegra 3, stupid company move if they dont in my opinion
I heard a while back that Gameloft somehow ties the install to the device, and that the same APK cannot be installed more than once ? Maybe it does some sort of authentication against their server? Try getting them to give you a clean download of the title you payed for and see if that works on the prime.

I just tried the same thing with Asphault6 HD. it doesn't show up in marketplace on the prime. I have it on my Atrix4g. I emailed myself the apk to the prime. it installed and everything but once I launched the game, it said it wasn't compatible with my device and to request a refund..SMH
its only a matter of time. they supported tegra2, my atrix, so they should eventually update to support tegra3 or Prime. hopefully as I find gameloft games usually the best. aside from epic and EA. is Rage HD out for Android? love that game on my Ipad.

Maybe. However this are games I bought from the market ie. MC3, asphalt6, backstab. And some free ones like Brothers in Arms, Lets golf 3. So trying to get a new download from market wont work since they dont show up in the first place in my Prime.

I agree but they still dont 100% support tegra 2 devices. For example the original Transformer prime only has certain games available. And they are old ones like spiderman, OG dungeon hunter, NOVA 1st one. And I think 1 more.
Then on my acer a100 its also limited thats why I had to change the build.prop to make market think I have an a500. Again these are both tegra 2 devices and most tablets currently run tegra2 only. So I dont see them supporting tegra 3. Just device specific.

[Q] Plants Vs Zombies Freezing after ICS update

Ok I did a search and didn't see anything on this topic.
I was wondering if anyone else is having Plants Vs Zombies freezing after the update to ICS? I bought the app from Amazon and I checked and there is no update.
Does anyone know how to fix this??
Thank you guys in advance!
I have the Amazon version of Plants vs. Zombies and i just installed it and tried playing. It seemed to lock up at 'Tap on a seed packet to pick it up!' in the starting tutorial, then I got by there and it killed it and restarted. This time it locked up a little later in the first stage, but basically the same thing. Freezes and I have to force kill.
I just did a factory reset last night and it seemed to clear up alot of my issues I'd been having since ICS, but I guess Plants vs Zombies isn't compatible (at least not the Amazon version).

Interestingly, it lists my Prime as incompatible... My phone is compatible though.... Amazon lets you buy things that your device is not compatible with. I got the Kindle Fire version of Asphault 6 by mistake, but luckily it was only .10 :/
I've been using a version of Plants Vs. Zombies that I found online. It's an HD version that's been working great, and it looks really good. Just try searching Google for Plants Vs. Zombies HD APK. Thats what I did, and I love it.

Thank you I will try this since the version I paid for doesn't work.
There are a bunch of games I've gotten as amazon free app of the day that break in ICS... PvZ, Peggle, and Kona's Crate to name a few. I also have issues with Zen Pinball unfortunately. They are all games that worked on my Prime and my Gingerbread phones, but don't on ICS. I'm assuming they need an ICS compatibility update, but haven't researched it much yet.
UPDATE: I was just reading through the user reviews for the app in the amazon store and I saw a suggestion that worked for me... clear the games data in Settings > Apps, and the game should load right up.
Thanks. This also applies for the non-Prime TF101 (for Zen Pinball, although I had to run the game 2x after clearing data to get it working). I emailed the developers about the issue yesterday and have now pointed them to this thread.

FIFA 12 available

finally the great game comes to android. creating a post to alert all fans.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
so they made a tegra 3 version or is it just a tablet version of the always sh** fifa games on mobile
I didn't see it on the Tegra Zone, so I'm guess it's just a general port.
yeah it looks like theres a version on the market with 1 review for 4.99 but no mention of tegra 3
oh and that review is 5 stars but no info
I guess this is the game you are talking about Fifa 12 by EA Sports
Indeed, it has no indication of Tegra 3 or tablet support at all, but one of the comments talks about the game running on a Galaxy Tab 10.1, and according to the play store it's compatible with our Primes.
If someone gets a chance to test it, please let us know how is it
For most part, If the game shows in market and you can buy it it will work with your device. The dev,company can select system,device that the game,app works with when uploading it to market.
Bought the game. Is 1257mb to be downloaded. I'll be back later how it works.
But am pretty sure that it will work just fine.
Edit: when making posts to tips,suggestion a games or apps the least you can do is to post links
Edit #2 :Made a little video to show that it works
I've played a couple matches, and I'm really happy with the purchase. Game runs very smoothly, and it actually controls pretty well with the on screen buttons. I have not checked for gamepad / keyboard support yet.

Let me know when you do, neighbor! I've got my PS3 controller as well as an F710 coming in a week.. I'm hoping one of them works with FIFA12.
If you check Andreas527's video, he didn't play it with the onscreen controller, so I checked the video details on youtube and this is on the description:
Playing with the PS3 controller and use the app "Sixaxis Controller" to make the Touch Profiles and to connect wirelessly with Bluetooth.

installed the 1290something mbs, ran the game, and hey presto, black screen and kick back.. did you edit the prop? or just run it..
If you ran it from a modified APK could you point me in the general direction?
Damn.. I went to buy it, and "This item cannot be installed in your device's country."
EDIT - woops. n/m. Guess I should look for the one with USD in the price..

I had problems after installing it but a reboot of the prime fixed my problems. Give that a shot.
Because of the reviews on the market I tried to install via wares to see if it works. People reporting black screen and throwing out on startup, this and the fact it download the 1gb + of data at less than 100kbps means your stuck getting an auto refund.
I unfortunately had these problems so going to hold off on purchasing untilled more stable. After a restart I did get a message about my device not able to use it or something but just backs out again thereafter.
It plays fine here, never had to reboot. Works great with Sixaxis / Dualshock 3.

Best ROM for Gaming on Touchpad

Hi guys,
I'm trying to flash android on my touchpad for my kids can play games. I'm just trying to figure out what'll be the best ROM to put onto the touchpad in order for gaming for my kids? I've read through the posts a little bit but theres quite a bit so I was wondering if you guys had any ideas. It'll also be nice if it had minimal bugs and I could use it as a daily driver.
Also: Are there any updated guides for this out? I'm sure I can follow the old one and figure it out from there, but I figured it never hurts to ask.
Thanks

I would just go with stock cyanogen. There is no gaming roms lol. I am running cyano nightly and its very stable. You can over clock it too.
Go check out rev kyle on YouTube and he will give you step by step directions bud. . Don't forget to hit thanks if I was helpful. Good luck and I hope your kids get as much joy out of your touchpad as I do!

Depending on the games you may need to spoof another device. Most of the kid games work well though. My 2 and 5 year olds like playing on my touchpad. In fact I'm getting another one for them soon.

To those running CM9, do gameloft/glu games work? I used to get FC all the time on CN several months ago.
I got a GNex so I haven't been up to date on TP development for a while now
A lot of gameloft games work, I run Asphalt 6, Modern Combat 3, Dungeon Hunters 3, and other high end games like Mass Effect Infiltrator and such with no problems. Sometimes you'd need specific versions for some other games (so those have to be side-loaded into your device) but most work. Don't know about glu games, myself.
CM9 nightlies are the best. I flash the latest nightly, change the build.prop to spoof a SGH-T989, and I'm set for everything I need.
