Games on android

---

Does anyone know if 3D android games will work properly for the touch pro 2 running android? For example, anyone tried N.O.V.A. and other really 3D games? Thanks everyone.

They might run, but very slowly though. Reason being because hardware3D isn't fully workn or implemented on this build yet. Its coming soon. So for now, everything is software rendered or something. Overclocking will help speed up apps and games but it can't justify the hardware3d not working. Try some out for urself and see. Id say if the app or game isn't too 3d intense, then it'll run it. Run an app or game that's very 3D intense, and it'll run slow or slow down device. I've tried some. They work but not fast enough. With this build they getting the essentials wrking first then everything else will follow. I've got a feeling very soon there will be some Major updates. If u must , then overclock. Overclocking will help out with games in the meantime until they finally finish implementing hardware3d/open gl.

I bought 'Super KO Boxing 2 ' which seemed to have great reviews. The only issue with the current build is it's fast enough to be playable but is still pretty slow. The file is also large so you need to install it to the SD.

If I was you I would hold out on 3D games until OpenGL has been sorted. Other than that you can always download normal games that don't use much graphics.

Even if we manage to get OpenGL, I'm not sure whether the TP2 can handle 3D games smoothly. We'll have to wait and see. :S

yep 3d games would be difficult to run smoothly enough to play with the current builds, so all you can do is wait and play 2d games that are fun. a game i play some what is world war, its pretty much just to waste time for me when im bored. either that or abduction world attack which is very fun

@ demandarin: i bet you cant go 10 post without mentioning overclocking in it :P, lol nah im just kidding, overclocking is great but i swear my phone doesnt like me everytime i try it out and yes i do put in the right amount. but thats another story.

i highly recommend doodle jump, super fun and addicting game that runs in 2D.

can anyone beat my highscore of 86,000?

Thanks for all your replies. By the way, is it better to get a decent android device than to get a touch pro 2 and run android on that. If anyone has the limitations of android on the touch pro 2, that would be appreciated. I wanna buy something that would last a while but I'm on a budget . Is the android on the touch pro 2 customizable like the android on a real android device (I mean if the most apps run smoothly like aHome and others). Thanks in advance!!

id say get a phone with android preinstalled on it. it will run way better, has newer hardware and will most likely have a capacitative screen

yep id have to say get an original android. if anything i would probably say to get a g1 because its the first android and still gots a hardware keyboard and should still be pretty cheep if you buy it on craigslist or ebay or something.

or maybe get the vogue, since its way more up ahead on the android development with ROMS and i think its cheeper to buy also

Okay, i know this is kinda off topic but if you have apk files for android, to install them, do I simply use a file browser and open to install? By the way, I don't think the Vogue is an android device by stock. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
