Changing the build.prop on my HP Touchpad to:

ro.product.model=GT-i9100

ro.product.brand=samsung

Allowed it to see all gameloft games in the market place and download the data. I tried this on my Prime but it doesnt seem to work...

Anyone know of a method?

I did the same thing when the apps went on sale. The crappy thing is I bought most of their games on my phone thinking I would be able to just get them in the market when I get my prime but no.

I read somewhere that you could email them and they would give you the apk's for the games you bought if you let them know your email address and your phone number. I emailed them and I'm waiting on their reply. Granted I didn't tell them its for my prime so I'll see what they say.

be careful when editing build prop. there's a guy now who his prime is in some sort of boot loop from doing the same and hasn't been able to fix it yet.

Order and Chaos wont work, the latest update broke it when i was running it on the TF101.

Previously we had to run the Xoom version of the game to get it working, but whatever they did in the update broke it

Its seriously ****e for gameloft not to support the TF. When i did some digging about on their forums, it seemed to be due to a licence problem, IE someone wanted to charge them too much to support the TF/ TFP officially.

Stupid really as im sure TF and the TFP will have a massive share in the tablet market now.

the problem is even with the APK the game does a check when it loads to see if it's compatible, i've gotten MC3 to work but other games will just tell you they aren't compatible when you load them.

it's ****ing lame of them, and i won't support them until they change their policy. ALL tegra2 compat games will work with the prime technically.

Most companies will write games to work with OpenGL ES which means they work automatically for pretty much every phone that has the hardware to support them.

Unfortunately Gameloft had it in their heads for a while that it is a good idea to write directly for each individual phone's processor instead of just creating one copy for OpenGL and being done with it. Thus massive fragmentation ensued.

Things are a little better now, they are releasing newer games directly to the market and those are generally compatible with all devices. When I got my VZW Galaxy Nexus I was very surprised to see that all my Gameloft Games installed right away without issue. (The one exception was Modern Combat 3 which was updated a week later).

I am pretty sure that the only thing keeping these games off the transformer prime is an arbitrary compatibility check. If they work on the old transformer directly from the market they should work on the prime.

Hopefully they give me the apk's, and hope they get updated to work on the prime. Seeing as this a very popular device, hopefully it won't take long. Its the only reason I bought them

maybe we should do the same like people did with Asus and bootloader. start writing them and complaining to them. that by not making their games compatible for TF/TFP devices they are missing out on a huge market share. our devices are more than capable of running their games. I have all the great gameloft games on my Ipad like Modern Combat3, Nova2, Splinter Cell conviction, and lots more. I really wish I could get them for my Prime. I think if enough TF/TFP owners complained to them then we might see the results we want pretty quickly.
