I'm guessing English isn't your first language. The line about "good positions for playing of various gender." Makes absolutely no sense, so it's hard to understand what you are asking. Do you want some good game recommendations?

Yes it is not my first language very good perception, however you guessed very well what I meant (and very good imagination), anyway I've a little complicated the grammar and sorry for that.
Exactly, the question is: what games can you recommend to me. I am interested in all the types.
Thanks a lot once again and forgive me next puzzles if any...

N64oid!! - I know you know what a N64 is And I know you love Super Mario 64
Something newer ?
OK, the games I have installed right now are asphalt 2, cubes free(kinda old school graphics, but lots of fun), gun bros (one of my favorites), heavy gunner, nfs shift, spectral souls (very expensive, but well put together turn based RPG), squible (it was the first game on the market that captured my attention), zenonia 1 and 2 (Zelda style RPG) and also live holdem pro(free live poker game, very addicting)

I think the word you are looking for is "genre", not gender. Genre is a group or category of something, and gender is sex (like male or female).
In any case, Pocket Legends is pretty cool, but the games I limit myself to these days are Angry Birds, Slice It and Wordfeud...all puzzle type games.
-- B
I'm a gamer myself and have literally tried every game available on android. Pocket legends is pretty fun to have for a portable mmorpg. It has some obvious tones similar to world of warcraft. Another fun rpg is crusade of destiny. Its got great graphics and fun gameplay and kept me busy for a couple of weeks. Spectral souls is a well made game for sure but its more one of those strategy rpgs that lacks the ability to fully control the player. It reminds me more of an amped up chess game so it wasn't my taste.
Also if you're running a high end device, which I can assume you are because you're in this forum, I can reccommend any of the gameloft games. They aren't available on the market so you'll need to visit their site. Just google gameloft. They are a little pricey and some of the games can be a little buggy at times but as far as graphis go and playability there is little comparison out there. Games like splinter cell, hawx, modern combat 2, and avatar come in high definition formats and stick pretty close to the full size counterparts.
Other than that you should bury your gaming urges in one of the several well made emulators on the market. A lot of good games from the days past and some fun memories too!
Happy gaming!

Ok guys thanks, so I am starting to test them all
Another game I would highly recommend is Project INF. It's a top down multiplayer shooter. Somewhat addictive once you get into it.
I think someone already mentioned it but GunBros is also a good shooter game.
EA also has a bunch of mainstream titles on Android like Sims 3 and FIFA 10.
I hate to support companies that refuse to support Android by refusing to put their apps on the market but Gameloft really has some of the best Android games. I currently have Modern Combat 2 and for an FPS with 3D graphics running on a phone, it's absolutely stellar! It even has multiplayer. Not sure about the price but I think I got it for $3.99 or $4.99. Just Google "gameloft".

Have you even looked into the reason WHY gameloft games are not on the market? It has nothing to do with them not supporting android.
It has to do with the fact that they have different .apk's for different gpus in different phones, the games are optimized for specific gpu's, that's why they look so good. The market doesn't allow multiple apk's or detect phone gpus so they can't put it up there properly.

When you buy a game from them they require your phone model to give you the right one.

One game that I can heartily recommend is Majesty. Plays pretty much like the PC version. I'm in the same boat as you otherwise, just got a g2, only had a g1 beforehand, in which I ran nesoid and gensoid, nes and genesis emulators.
I did run across some apps about emulating Heroes of Might and Magic 2 and the Baulders Gates/Planscape Torment games...but you need the data files from the games, so either have to own em or....
Search Pelya (the maker) for those. I havn't been able to test them out fully yet, looking for my old discs now >.<

Wow i have both of them original versions ,please tell me how they can be launched on the our little machines and if they are not too slow?
By the way i am still looking forward ADOM and Fallout distribution if it is possible.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yeah I would kill for Fallout, never really got into the BG series. As such I don't own the first one, and after reading more gemRB is only allows bg2 demo, so didn't bother.
Free Heroes 2 on the other hand, works pretty well. Was just playing some Heroes of Might and Magic 2.
Quick run down on what you have to do.
Download Free Heroes 2 on your g2/desire z
Install HoMM2 on your computer, go into the game files, copy the data folder, go into your sd card and put the data folder in "app-data/net.sourceforge.fheroes2"
You will most likely have to make the sourceforge folder.
Now start the game, make sure the "where to download application data" tab is pointed to your sd card, and then go to "downloads" tab, click game data I guess? Then dl midi music and essential map pack, get the additional and mega map pack if you wish, and any of the translations.
Now you should be able to run the game, but will run into the issue i had, crashing after the first turn I imagine
SO, remount your phone to the pc, open up your sourceforge.fheroes2 folder, and look for "fheroes2.cfg"
Open it with notepad, then look for "videomode = 640x480"
Change it to "videomode = 800x480" and save. Now should run with no issues...hopefully. I tested a few turns then attacked a graveyard....suffice to say I died
Took me a little bit of scouring to figure out exactly how to get it to run, and still havn't messed with any of the more indepth tweaks, so if you figure out some that work real well, be sure to pass them along
Well atleast I assume we all enjoy some level of gaming. I've been a huge fan of the developers GameLoft . Most of their Android games aren't on the market for some reason but I've purchased and played their games ( NOVA , Assassins Creed, and GT Racing ) and they are amazing. When ever I try to go searching for more quality games like the ones they make all I get tossed at me are things like Angry Birds and Air Traffic Control. They are fun little games and they are fine but I am searching for more higher quality 3D games.
So know of any?
http://gameloft.com = their site, check it out. Wait for a sale to go on before buying. I got all my games for $5 about a month ago.
NOVA : A SWEET 3D FPS. Straight up, it's like Halo on your Droid which is just pretty freaken awesome especially when you factor in that it has Multiplayer Deathmatch levels. If you kill all the background apps and services before playing your experience should be super smooth and fun.
Assassins Creed : An interesting remake of the game from the console versions. The graphics are of course pretty snazzy and the game play it's self is comfortable. Worth checking out if you like more "Adventure-ish" style games.
GT Racing : Oh... My gawd... Hands down my favorite racing game. Not for the phone but outright FAVORITE racing game. Detail is rediculous, graphics are insane, and the number of cars and races are just like ... daaamn... You gotta check it out.
Huh I thought there would be more interest in this area but I suppose I stand alone lol
Well I am not actually much for games. my game is flashing a new rom every once in a while ... well I did get Majesty from appstore for free the other day. I played only the tut and one adventure but it seems like a pretty good game. it is similar to AOE which I grew up playing alllll the time.
Thanks,
SoBBie
I downloaded that too! Pretty fun. Also not a huge mobile gamer but I might check out some of the games in the OP.

Just attempting to see what's out there. I'm loving Angry Birds Space, Sonic CD, Dead Space, etc. Problem is, the marketplace is really difficult to find anything else worthwhile outside of looking at the "Top Paid" or "Top Free" menus. That's great and all, but it's basically impossible to see what else is available.
So, what are you favorite games? I'm hoping to fall in love with something I've never heard of.
Also, is there a site similar to "Touch Arcade" dedicated to Android gaming? I'm assuming Android gaming isn't as popular, but you never know. This is basically my dedicated handheld system now so yeah... Trying to get the most out of it. Really happy so far though. 4.6" makes gaming with onscreen controls so much better...

Dude. Dead Space is sick! Make sure you play with headphones on. Completely worth the 6 bucks. Highly, highly recommend. ****, I went out on a limb and paid 15 for Spectral Souls. 15 bucks! WHAT? Then I started playing it and I said "ok I get it now". That game is dope as hell if you like rpg, tactical type games. But yeah Dead Space? Winner in my book.

Was surprised noone had mentioned this, byfar one of my most favorite games, and I can just pick it up at home and continue in my world on my Xoom.
price is not an issue
coming from an iphone, i want some games that are "new" or "unique" or that can show off what it can do. what i don't want is people saying like angry birds or words with friends or stuff like that. i am interested to see the possibilities of this bigger screen and faster hardware
shadowgun & need for speed hot pursuit have some of the best graphics out there

Welcome to Android. I don't mean to burst your bubble but gaming experience isn't quite up to par as iOS yet. Its getting better with the release of games like Temple Run and some of the other 3D games mentioned above. Also better hardware won't do much. Games are far better optimized for iOS so its a smoother experience. The bigger screen is really the only advantage here.

If you really want to show off this phone, start looking into rooting and installing custom ROMS. You can boost performance greatly and can install Google Wallet and when you go to McDonalds you can pay with your phone and your iPhone buddies will be like "WTF!?!?!, daz sooo kewl!" Also, try installing a new launcher such as Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher. You will be able to show off how you can customize your device which is really the high point of Android.

Simple premise, beautiful execution, hundreds of levels, and its FREE.

How is that relevant? Sure, the iphone has MORE games, but you can't say that the experience is better or worse. I don't understand where people come up with this 'smoother experience' type language. Haven't played a game on the phone yet that lags or stutters. And I'll take an extra inch of screen space ANY day of the week.

What do you mean how is it relevant? iOS is better for gaming regardless of screen size. I'm not afraid to tell the truth and its apparent you've never used an iPhone for more than 10 minutes yet you're probably the one telling iOS fanboys that they've never used Android for more than 10 minutes. iOS is smoother on everything not because its better but because its coded using native code just like WP7. Games, Apps, Web are all much more consistent with the UI and achieve higher frame rates. Yeah, I don't get lag on my games either but that doesn't mean its just as smooth. There's no arguing that. Instead of trying to cast aside the problem, why don't you acknowledge it and perhaps help to make it better.

Enjoy!
I am not a big fan of FPS games on handhelds, they usually have clumsy controls, the aiming is heavily assisted, etc.
Canabalt HD (IMHO one of the best side-scroller, might get multiplayer mode)
Radiant Defence (new tower defense game with a slight twist)
Robodefense (my favorite conventional tower defense game)
Sentinel (a graphically beefed up tower defense game)
Asphalt 6 (arcade racing, multiplayer is nice)
Flight Control, Angry Birds, Cut the Rope (if you are into ultra-casual gaming)
HomeRun Battle (nice baseball game, addictive multiplayer)
Obviously these are all personal preferrences
Temple Run! Most addictive!
You must try this.
Where's my water? It's good too although it's 2D.
Fruit Ninja - Puss in Boots!
It's 3D!
Graphics should be quite nice.
Fruit Ninja v1.74(or higher, or prepare for ugly graphics)!
Real Racing 2 (works on GN, isn't compatible in market tho - you need to fix that yourself)

Coming from a Diablo , rouge like history of gaming, I have always been into computer versions of those types of games. Huge worlds to explore, a plethora of items to find, secret dungeons and chests spread out everywhere to reward the player that likes to find everything in a world. Until I played and bought 9th Dawn I didn't think I would ever experience that PC EXPERIENCE OF A HUGE WORLD ROUGE TYPE GAME.
While the grafix are simple sprites the fighting is fun. Three typical characters are there for your picking.The knight that can use a wide variety of swords ,axes,spears. The mage that fires spells like an Angry Bird rubber band style. Believe me the Mage and Archers way of shooting projectiles are a blast. The mage can upgrade his staff skills or magic, or both. Higher end staffs can not be exquiped by pure magic mages. The archer can work on upgrading his bow skills (skills are raised with use, think of Oblivion) so he can use a huge variety of bows. Or he can become a mad dagger wielding fool with shield abilities.
Bottom line, if you are into huge world exploration RPGs and high tech graphixmare not your requirement for good gaming.9th. Dawn is your game
87/100
This game is a lot of fun and it's constantly updated.
The only problem I've had with it is that sometimes their updates break the game, but they usually push fixes with a few hours
Try playing back stab its also really good
