The Play Store web site says both Deus Ex: The Fall and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas are not compatible with the Xperia Tablet Z, that is probably why they are not being displayed in your XTZ's Play Store app.

yep, but you can easily install them as apk files separately.

strange thing is that apps&games that are working perfectly when installed manually from apk are shown as non-compatible in Gplay.

[Q] Playstation Store Update?

Recently, I decided to go on the Playstation Store, through my Tablet S. Turns out, there was an update. Simple enough to install... However, there weren't any noticeable changes to the store itself. I downloaded the games MediEvil and Jet Moto again, seeing how I used to love those games, and I did download them whilist they were free. I had to get rid of them, cause there wasn't enough storage space on my 16GB Tablet. After reinstalling them and everything, the UI was noticeably... Smaller. The buttons in the menus no longer took up the entire screen, and although I may be wrong, I think the Graphics are slightly improved. Text in games seemed less pixelated....
These changes haven't done anything to Pinball Heroes, or Crash Bandicoot.
Anyone here know if there are going to be more games added, or improvements to the emulator?
i guess Sony is the only one who can give u the answer pal. i do not think the Playstation Store app will improve the games or emulator.
It would be so nice if I could comment but as the flaming sony store app for the tablet doesn't work in Ireland I can't
psssst.....

Non-Compatible games in Play Store

Hi, since ICS rollout, i've upgraded to it. So, the thing is, when i did have my Galaxy S2 i bought some games, and now with my RAZR i can't play some of those games, like NFS Hot Pursuit, 9mm, NOVA2, Play Store says my games are not compatible with the device.
So, what can i do? When i was in Gingerbread i had this same problem with Asphalt 6, but when i upgraded to ICS Asphalt 6 is now playable. So i think that i really can play thos other games. But how to by pass this? How to remove this restriction?
Anyone???
Thanks!!
PD: Sry for my english.

Did you ever make a ti backup while you were using a compatible device? If you did you could restore app & data and it should run fine. If not you could search out how to make a build.prop edit to spoof a compatible device, be sure to copy your original and name it build.prop.bak first.
Sent from my XT912 using xda premium
I tried changing ro.product.name and brand for Samsung's GT-I9100 (tried i9100 too and samsung in caps and not) but nothing, erased cache of Play Store but nothing, i now that editing build.prop is working cuz i did it with lcd density and it changed so is nothing to do with Root Browser and file not saving well or anything like that.
But, wanna play my games, wanna play NOVA2, Modern Combat 2, Need For Speed, 9mm, i payed for those games, too bad that a great device, a powerful device like the RAZR "can't" handle this games.
Finally did it!
Just edited the ro.product.model / brand / name / device lines in build.prop tu Nexus S and samsung, so now got all the games 9mm is working perfectly, not need to use Chainfire!

GTA 3 and NFS Shift worked on my xperia P, the only significant difference in the phones is the Go's poor screen resolution, probably whats making it in incompatible? not too sure though... but if they're incompatible they wouldnt show up for you in the play store

No they are compatible in Go. I played in GB. And the Gameloft store shows they are compatible too. I think its ICS's problem. (

[Q] Xperia Go and other Xperia ICS HD Game problem!?

Hi! I'm using Xperia Go ICS 4.0.4.
I installed Asphalt 7 in phone, but whenever I try to open the game the gameloft logo appears, and then it goes bak to the menu.
I've seen my Friends Sola and P. The phone has the same problem, too.
Is anyone were able to play the game? I also tried some other Gameloft and EA Games HD games. No luck. (
Is there any solution or fix? Please HELP. ;(

Old Android Games Preservation Help?

Hi Forum,
I found my ancient Sony Ericsson Xperia Play and decided to fire it up. I'd totally forgotten that during the prime of this device I was a little obsessed with acquiring all sorts of obscure ports and games from several niche markets (mostly in Japan) and wouldn't you know it - I still had them on the device and had backups from Titanium Backup still stored on the SD. Sadly, most, if not all of these games do not run on modern Android and I'm hoping maybe some astute folks out there can decompile these things, work some magic, and repack them?
Many of these games include support for the Xperia Play controls which predates the modern usage of gamepads under Android. Alas, if this aspect could be tweaked to run on generic controls, that would up the radness!
Anyway, here's the list of booty I had on the device. I paid for each and every one of these back in the day. Some of them so rare, you might not believe it to be real! All of these have been long since abandoned by the publishers and don't exist on any storefronts anymore.
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Devil May Cry 4 - Acquired from the GGee Market, an obscure Japanese android Market. Game has EXE files?!
Ghost n' Goblins: Gold Knights - Acquired from the Play Store, Android Market at the time, from Japan.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light - Acquired from the Play Store. I think a more modern updated one exists on the Play Store anyway.
N.O.V.A 2 HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Silent Hill: The Escape - Touchscreen game. Pretty sure I got this from Android Market (Play Store) from the Korea storefront.
SimCity Deluxe HD - Purchased this from EA direct. Touchscreen only.
Spider-Man: Total Mayhem HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Starfront Collision - Some shameless StarCraft rip-off I purchased from GameLoft. Touchscreen only.
Worms - Purchased direct from EA as Play Store version didn't have Xperia Play controls.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard HD - Acquired from Gameloft directly as the Play Store didn't sell the version with Xperia Play controls.
Star Battalion HD - Some game I got from GameLoft. Can't recall much about it.
Biohazard 4 / Resident Evil 4 - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
Monster Hunter - Acquired from the Android Market (Play Store) Japanese region.
FIFA 10 and Madden 10 - Acquired direct from EA as their store had the Xperia Play control version.
And finally... probably the coolest one of the lot due to rarity alone (IMHO).
Ridge Racer Accelerated - This is the same game as the PSP / iOS port. I remember acquiring this was like pulling teeth at the time as only Namco's shortlived Banadroid Market in Japan had it. It was never sold on any regional front of the Play Store. The only port that existed on the Japanese Play Store was for a specific device the SH-009 or something... some stereoscopic 3D phone that had a Nintendo DS effect and that port was exclusive to the hardware. This port, however, was Android device generic. I even recall on the Xperia Play forum here on XDA years ago some members didn't think this existed and would attempt to "correct" me that the ONLY version was this SH-009 exclusive and it won't run. How wrong they always were...
The game did have two oddities. First, it would only run on Gingerbread. When I used CyanogenMod back then to jump to ICS and JB the game would boot but at the load screen it would draw some message about wrong android version (in Japanese), so this wasn't an Android OS error but some strange check by the game itself. Second, it would ask for a username and password which was used to quickly check-in with the Banadroid market. Obviously, my legit credentials don't work anymore as that market is long since dead.
Anyways, long winded crap over. Please let me know any thoughts that industrious souls amongst you might have.
PS: I'll have to dig around more but I also recall having Civilization Revolution 1 and a few other games which were acquired from the Korean storefront.
would you upload the backup files? someone can make work on newest devices
