Games not available on Google Play - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

Hi all
This is my first flagship android device so I was looking forward to playing top games such as mass effect infiltrator, dead space, nova 3 etc
To my surprise, they aren't available for my device! Considering this is the flagship android phone out at the moment what is going on here?
Will these games become available in the next few weeks as the developers roll out updates or do we need to email them to make them aware of the issue?
I live in the UK and am on o2 btw
Thanks

Since the device it's new I'd give it time, the eco system has to adapt.

Oddly Dead Space is listed as 'incompatible' on the play store... but if I restore it from my SGS2 using titanium backup it works perfectly on my GS3 (just with low res sgs2 textures)
So probably just needs EA to pull their thumb out and update their list, rather than making any actual changes to the game...

If it works with low res then they won't release it. There are loads of games I have bought for my previous phone that don't work on my 1x, pretty annoying really

The games might be available in the coming weeks as devs need to add S3 as a supported device.. plus some games are country specific. The developers can tell playstore to provide the game/app in some country and not to do so in other countries.

Pk am i missing something cos I can't find these on the store anywhere?
T-Mobile UK

Nova 3 and Asphalt 6 are both available on the market for me now. I think they must have added them last night. I guess its just a case of adding the device to the list of compatible devices, we know the phone can easily handle any of these games its just a case of the developers updating the market!
That still leaves Mass effect infiltrator, Dead Space and shadowgun THD that I can't see. Does anyone know what the best way is to make sure they get added? Can we email the developer or make requests to google play through the market?
Thanks

Now all gameloft titles are available for me at the playstore

You will NEVER see this one: it's a "Tegra3 only" game
But Shadowgun is available on market for S3

Looks like Max Payne won't be available initially for the S3, this suxsss.

Mass effect infiltrator works from my friends s2 backup but the audio is a little choppy.
I guess ea have to make improve it's compatibility with the s3. I've already emailed them on this matter.

Hi guys, how is battery use playing these games for an hour or so? How much % does it take to play the game? Does the device gets hot or not?/
Thanks for any reply.

These games are available on the web if you do a Google search for the apk.
Obviously the sources can't be promoted outrightly on xda as they are considered warez
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Peggle is also not available for this handset. My titanium backup of my PAID app is also no use as it's one of those apps that just KNOWS you didn't reinstall it directly from the market.
Sad, I love Peggle.

I'd be wary, many of these apk's are repackaged with malware.

Free games at samsung apps!UPDATED! DEAD SPACE AVAILABLE!

There are some free games available for x-mas at samsung appstore!
EDIT:
After this great christmas offer, there is another game available for free! DEAD SPACE can be downloaded for free, don’t know how long they will offer it, so better grab it instantly!
HAVE FUN!
Unfortunately this seems to require you to login to Samsung Apps on your phone, which is not going to happen if you're running ICS, CM7 or MIUI.
Damn it... that would be my next question... what if one installed the original Samsung store on MIUI (given one can get a hold of the apk). Would that work? D
Does anyone have a source for the apk or knows where to get it from?
SAMSUNG APPS.APK UPLOADED! ;-)

Hope it workes for you!
Thanks, doesn't work with Galnet MIUI ICS. Too bad...

+1. Just got FPse and its pretty sick. Playing FF7 right now and it plays perfectly. I'll look into FF1 for Android. Playing FF3 for Android as well which totally kicks ass. Thanks for the heads up OP.
Its not worth the money, its a direct ios port. When it becomes the ANDROID VERSION, I will buy it.

It is not a port is the Android Japanese relesae but in english, it does not contains the extra dungeons on IOS version.
However is better than nothing...I dont want to install FPSE and the PS Rom on my PLAY... I own all FF's on the PS platform.
I was so confused when I saw "Original Final Fantasy", "FPSe", and "PS ROM" all in the same thread. I never realized the original was updated and re-released, as I fell out of the Final Fantasy scene after FF7. I might just have to pick this one up.

how to play HD games with just a little lag

hello everyone...
I know some old tricks that may helps our Galaxy Y Plays HD games with better performance and just have a little bit of lag. i hope this could be usefull. check it out!
-first, we need ChainFire 3D and the plugins. you can download this app for free on Play Store or buy it for full version. and download the plugin » http://www1.datafilehost.com/d/7d5bb3af
on the first time, you'll have to install the CF3D EGL Driver and ur phone will automaticly reboot. and then if the chainfire3D app dissapear, don't worry... just install it again.
open it and select the Qualcomm plugin. and fix market.
and then select the "Per app Graphics setting" not the default settings one, Choose unroll texture to 16bit and hide the CF3D from the Proc List (Just in case)
-[if you are not familiar with Scripts, u can skip this step] Before using Ram manager, you can use the V6 SuperCharger Script and Adrenaline engine script. search this in XDA. i recommend you to combine the V6 with Ram manager Pro.
but for the V6 Installation, you can Learn fron this thread » http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603953 Thanks CarlDeanCatabay for the useful guide...
for the Adrenaline Engine Installation for Galaxy Y, go to this thread » http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604320
thanks to ImbaWind for the great script
-Next, we'll use Ram Manager app. this one is very usefull too. just download it for free in Play Store or support the dev by buying the pro ones.
open this app, choose the "Hard Gaming" mode, and choose the swap file to 8 MB only.
-Then, if you have some money, you can buy "GameBooster 2" in Play Store. it's a very usefull app. just select the Ultra Gaming mode (it's battery Drainer) and at the Extra tab, tick the SDcard tweaks. Voila...
And I'd tested this trick in my phone and guess what? I can play Temple Run 2 ARMv6 smoothly! And i can play Temple Run Oz for ARMv6 and Temple Run, Inotia 4 with just bit of lags only!
My Galaxy Young Playing Temple Run 2 ARMv6 QVGA » http://m.youtube.com/watch?hl=en&gl=ID&client=mv-google&v=0FJhWtpJi-w
i'll make the video showing the Inotia 4 Gaming in my G Young
*The HD games for ARMv6 needs to be patched from ARMv7 to ARMv6 Apk to run properly in our phone. So, google it. Like NOVA 3, Temple Run, and even GTA III.

Maybe, I'll post the video later... I'm in an exam so there's no time for that at this moment. And, read the OP 1 more time. I said, if you have much money, you can buy the "Pro" app and support the dev. So, if you wanna get more features, buy the app... I have the CF3D Pro and i don't want to share it here cuz it's illegal here. So if the free CF3D can't give you the "Per-app Grapichs setting" well, buy the pro app. It's worth it... Really.
confused?
I'm confused about this, so is there an easiest way to enjoy such HD GAMES:crying:

If u combine so many tweaks the results will be random reboots and a buggy phone
And btw u cannot just take a hd game and play it this way... U need a modified game for it not just ported.... So the way to play hd games isnt common.for all games...
Btw v6 supercharger isnt made to enhance gaming... It is suppoaed to be used to reduce lag in ui...
Sent from my GT-S5360 using Tapatalk 2
so the real lesson here is:
know your device's limitations,
you get what you paid for,
why on earth would you expect a ENTRY-LEVEL SMARTPHONE to run good games anyways
we have a ENTRY-LEVEL SMARTPHONE and no proper development except in gingerbread,
so please don't expect too much,
to be honest i dont play HD games on my phone since i know it cannot handle then and forcing it will result to worse cases
^^ +1 that
Also y do u have pc for??
Bty there are many cool games which run ob our devuce glawlessly if u want to play some games when u r bored and they dont need cf3d or anything... Jyst a good kernel ( ie non stock)
Examples
Subway surfers currently in apps and theming sec
Destriy gunners sp
Raging thundr
Tuebo fly
Fruit nunja
Air pebguin
My paper plane
Star pagga (u gota checj this out)
And many many more

I've really decided to get the nexus 7 instead of a phone,
I mean litterally i need a portable gaming and multimedia device also another device to enhance my android theming skills, i don't even know how to make a cm7 apk theme from scratch,
I have my sgy and it fits it's purpose as a great phone (call, text, music, mild gaming).
So i set on the practicallity of what i truly needed, My sgy will stay until it's 2nd anniversary
But on the HOX vs s3,
If you want a beautiful and well constructed phone go for one x, (one x is basically a iphone running on android with locked versatility like sd slot and replacable batt)
If you want a versatile and flexible multi-functional phone vs build quality, go with s3 but it's not made of polycarbonate and pure aluminum like one x

By staring at this post you have waived your right to privacy
Complaints will be trolled accordingly
Oh my sgy is gona stay
Even now i use 2 phones
And i herd one x has a bad battry life and has a hardware bug related to wify connectivity ...? No i ruled out s3 for various reasons..
