Broken Games Thread - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

This thread is to share which games are not workingon the s3.
I upgraded from my s2 to the sprint s3 and the following are no longer playable. Has anyone had any luck getting them to work ?
2. Dead Space (crashes when loading game)
3. Dungeon Defenders ( crashes on loading l)
4. Dark Meadow ( crashes when opening)
8. Star Blitz (unconfirmed)
9. Tiger Woods 2k12 (unconfirmed)
Keeping some added items as unconfirmed until more than 1 person reports the same issue.
If anyone has conflicting info please share !
Anyone have other games to add or know of a way to get anything above to work ? (Will keep list updated)

Sure did. Didn't see that other post. All the games I play run pretty good, but then again, I don't play many games on my phone.

star blitz will not even open enough to download resource package. i think this is a resolution issue, as it worked fine on my s2, but NOT my transformer prime OR s3. i emailed them regarding it, ill post back my findings.

tiger woods 2k12 doesn't work, paid $5 for that shiz too. worked perfectly fine on my og epic, so there's no excuse. doesn't work on nexus 7 either.

Modern combat 3? I can't download the file for the game to be played, anyone else?

9mm by Gameloft also says it's not compatible with this device . Bought it when I had Evo3d. Strange cause this device is more powerful than 3d and it was compatible with that. Guess it's software issues?

I haven't had any issues with mc3.
I took and transfered the apk for dead space from my s2 and other then some sound crackle from time to time it plays fine. Any of the apks I've downloaded from the net would just crash after loading like already mentioned.

Games that work on S3

I just wanted to know what games work for you guys. I figured most games would be supported because of Qualcomm Adreno graphics. But I tried Mass Effect: Infiltrator which just crashes, and MC3 and Nova3 just say unsupported. So I just wanted to know, what graphically good games you all have been able to get working.
Thread is now just a discussion about games on the S3.
Shadowgun works.
Asphalt 6: adrenaline tells me my device is not supported.
Need for speed
Final Defense
Front Line Commando
Most Glu games I believe, Gameloft, on the other hand, rarely works
Riptide GP is a good one. Worth buying for sure.
Nba jam works.

Max Payne does NOT work. You can move and aim but all the other controls are missing and the touch setup is grayed out. You can even bring up the menu to quit once youre in
It's BS about all these games that are not supported for the U.S. Galaxy S3. Millions of people would buy these games and so many do not even work. I have weaker device but at least it has way more high-end games for it. Either that or I can spend more money and get way more high-end games for my iPad.

[Game] Dungeon Hunter 3

Anyone playing this? This was turning into my favorite game since they added multiplayer but now its unable to start. Has anyone else had this problem. I would hate to have to reinstall the game and loose my progress but I'm not sure when a fix is coming for it. Any ideas?
Use titanium backup and backup the app data before you screw around. Does it work at all on the N7?

It worked prior to the update, now its in a bootloop. I was starting to think that it was a problem with jellybean devices b/c I had the same problem on my phone but after trying again it now works. I've been reading the comments and it seems that the problem may be due to it not recognizing wifi only as an internet connection.
No problem here.
Everything was working fine until yesterday I noticed there is an update for it. I ignored it at first but when launch the game it stuck at the black loading screen. I went back and installed the update and everything worked again.
off topic, anyone has tip on how to use archer? I can't seem to get the control the shooting direction.
No problem here. Awsem now multi player.. Iphone has it for a while I believe..

Yes, it's much like their other recent "free" games like MiB3, Ice Age Village, etc. where to get to the better items/unlocks you end up having to buy the extras via in app purchases.
I tried this game and don't like it. The first dungeon hunter was an actual game. I don't know where it turned into a "survive the wave" game.
Heroes Call THD is very similar but an actual, raid the dungeon and loot that mofo, game

I downloaded it and had the same error message. I proceeded and it downloaded an additional 850MB package. However It crashes right after the Gameloft symbol. I also noticed superuser shows several times "Shell granted super user access" which is a little bothersome...

i usually don't play fps games, but gave this a shot since its free! seriously, im blown away at the quality and over hd epicness of this game. mobile games have come a long way and i still remember playing snake and racing game demos on my dad's flip phone...
It shouldn't do a license check against the play market since you are downloading it from Samsung apps.
Doesn't work on my rooted "Canadian" version, same license check screen which I will say no too, delete, thanks anyways.

Hack your android game! (Change the coin/money value)

Guys, I just stumbled upon an app that allows you to change the values of your in game coins/money. It works great, I've used it with gun strike, temple run, jet pack joyride, and subway surfers. Just make sure that if it's a game that can played online, turn your data and wifi off or it will not work!

Used this for ages. Google gamekiller for Android. It's a little better. Also Google game guardian another one. I find gamecih the weakest of the three. Gamekiller is what I always use. I have not come across a game I can not modify using gamekiller.
Fyi in gamecih you may have to choose all memory areas when searching money values that change.

After you install the app, open it and allow super user access. Then change the hot key option to menu.
Here is an instructional video on how to use it.. Enjoy!

New Version
Your Link is for version 2 and this application has a version 3 out IDK if you posted vr 2 because it may work better IDK i have never used any of these apps but i have found links to all the three programs talked about in this thread
GameCIH 3
Game killer
Game Guardian
All these apps have been uploaded someone other than I, The file names have been tagged by the Uploader. Dont ask me how to use them because IDK how but I am pretty sure you must be rooted to use any of them. Also for any game that has online access (probably most of the games you would want free gold or what not from) i would think it would be best to turn off WIFi and Data.

Bump, just an update. I didn't get to try fpse but I am playing through epsxe and the games are working great. Chrono Cross anyone? Epsxe also gives you an ability to run Open GL plugins so your characters are all high-res, freakin amazing. [not available in fpse] Works great wirelessly with the ps3 controller as well if youre interested.
