because
Now, if you can perhaps give an example or two to substantiate your implied claim...

Real racing 2, fifa 12 band pensa 2012

Because they arent made to work with ICS, which can be because the developer don't care/havent gotten around to update the app.
Read playstore feedback before you pay/download a app, saves you a ton of frustration.

Either that or he's using a kernel with a modified sdcard binary file causing the game not to work. Mostly occurring on Rock star games

Do you have the Force GPU Rendering option on, under Developer Options?
I know a couple games wouldn't work for me when I had it on.

E.A. has a ****ty support...
They have updated Plants vs. Zombies recently, to suport ICS, and guess what? No phones with HD resolution are supported, only phones up to 960x540 resolution...
Peggle, Real Racing 2, Fifa 12, Columns and others have not even been upgradade to support ICS, and even if they do, it won't probably support HD resolutions...
So, if you want to run all games, go and buy a phone with 800x480 or 854x480 resolution, that runs Gingerbread... Otherwise, some games won't run, due to ****ty support like E.A. does...

Max Payne and Tiger Woods also don't work on stock
MP works on AOKP

Real Racing 2 works, try it on AOKP with the default kernel.
The governor you are on will determine whether or not some games work. It's weird.

Max Payne doesn't work on Franco Kernel. I know somebody said it worked with Glados.

It works....... you just need to replace the sdcard binary with the one in Franco's original OP with those permissions.
@OP: Complain to the devs of the game for lack of compatibility for ICS.

Hi,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27515966&postcount=20011
See the attachement,thanks to jnr21, the zip is from him
For the games who have problems with Francisco's kernel... the sd card binary is the principal issue, but ok maybe not for all the games.
So flash the stock sd card binary and games like Max payne, FIFA...
And to the OP: how can you expect help (concrete) with so little info/details (games, rom, kernel, settings, etc...)???

Sorry for the double post, bug.

hi all,
I'm on the panaroid 1.3 and Max payne is running really weel, even better than on my old computer when the game came out. But some free games like YooNinja Free are verry laggy ?!!
I was wondering if it was not a gpu problem but i guess that max payne is much more powerful so i don't really anderstand why yooninja is laggy...

On my S2 is working without chainfire or something.
I'm not sure if I should buy it... I'd like to read some review first...
now works like a charm on my phone with chainfire3D
What?Why need chainfire? It's for GT-I9100?
Is working without chainfire. I'm playing on my S2.
on my phone not working without chainfire :/
CHECK your device, some work and some not work. That must be cause by different GPU unit. Are you using GT-I9100G or GT-i9100?
Great game, and impressive graphics. I'd recommend it. Top Notch!

I am using GT-I9100
Working fine on my UK i9100. Great game, awesome graphics. My phone doesn't even get that hot whilst playing. Asphalt 6 used to make the phone really hot.
Good work EA.

Is the game smooth? Do you have any drop frames?
It's probably a great game.
However, I'll not buy another EA Mobile game again.
Consider Need for Speed Shift fiasco last year. EA Games held a big 0.99$ sale for the likes of Need For Speed Shift, Tetris and The Sims... Soon after, they rejigged the acceptable devices via an update, meaning that many customers couldn't re-download. Soon afterwards, they relaunched the game ... Rather than not rant, suggest prospective purchasers use google (including Market User Ratings) for these games and understand that in the past customers who purchased have been left unable to play. Buyer beware, and all that....
According to EA $6.99 is 7.70CHF...not a huge deal in itself but percentage-wise it's pretty high compared to what it should be.
v1.0.47 and 1.0.48 works on the S2 without the need for chainfire 3D.. i find this game more "arcadey" than shift though..
and gameloft should learn a thing or two from ea on how to make beautiful game without the bloating filesizes..

Thanks for the link, but EA must have the data files for this game on their reel-to-reel server at cousin Jethro's house:
I just crossed the 2% mark after about 10 minutes of DL'ing (on my 20MB/s wifi at home).

I finally got it downloaded (I guess their server is a little less busy right now... It took about 15 minutes for everything), and I gotta say, it's awesome for what it is: a Gran Turismo clone. It looks spectacular, but like Gran Turismo, you gotta work your way up to the good cars.
Anyway, here's a screenie I took:

There's too many variables in Android hardware. In the iPhone, it is known what CPU/gpu, the amount of ram, the screen resolution and what version OS you have.
Games for iPhone, I have seen insane large file sizes.

Rayman Jungle Run Nexus 7 Screen Shots

You may or not know Rayman Jungle Run is coming to android, however it was delayed due to technical difficulties (I'm sure Apple is paying developers to delay apps...). Kinda like Asphalt 7 and just like Asphalt 7 it got leaked working fine. So I got a copy I found on google, google it.
Here are some screenshots.

They game runs brilliantly on our device, I'll post a video soon.
Hope you enjoyed them!

Reserved,
I intend on buying the app when it's officially released.
i really want to buy this game. but like Marvel: Avenger alliance, it's being delayed...
the only problem i see with this mobile version, is that it's not free movement like the console version. it's a continuously-running game - like Temple Run but side-scrolling. is this true? ie. you can't stop, turn around, etc... you can only jump or slide or crouch...

Yes this is true, the controllers are... well... There isn't really any controls. You just tap the screen when you're ready to jump, it's all about timing in order to collect all the fireflys (I think that's what they are. xD) It's great fun, I'll buy it when it's out.
You're right about Avengers, and Wild Blood. Like I said, Apple probably pays them. :/

I see Jet Set Radio is now by Sega. I will most definitely buy this, buy I'm wondering if a THD version will get released like they did for sonic 4.
Anyone?
Fwiw: this is one of my all time favorite games. Super addictive. Not due how the controls will translate though. I bet you Need the ps3 controller to really score big

The game won't even start on my Nexus7 Android4.2.1.
It crashes after trying to launch the app. And it downloaded only 5mb instead of 500.
Tried many things to fix it, didn't work :'(
Works perfect for me on 4.1.2 (CM10)..

Like the z-buffering is at war with itself? Yep.
It seems to be an issue even on the PC release, and on other devices as well, so maybe it'll get fixed later. I wonder if it's possible to change the internal rendering resolution.

So can you use a PS3 controller with the app or is it on screen controls only?
If so anyone got a Sixaxis map for the NX7 I could swipe?

No lag, but lesser frame rate at highest settings. Kinda expected for our phone's older GPU. There's a reason the default is medium. It's still fully playable and looks really nice at highest, but I like medium settings for smoothness.
