Surprised no one's started this one yet. Just a thread for gamers to post what's working and what isn't. Also, to share about any titles that you particularly love. I'm always on the look out for new high quality games. I love FPS and RPG. Not a big fan of strategy which kinda sucks cuz there's SO many out there. Anyway, once I get mine (should be Monday), I'm loading up Deus Ex: The Fall, NOVA 3, Modern Combat 4 (and maybe 5), maybe a couple of Final Fantasy ones, the Bard's Tale, Iesabel, Dead Trigger 2, Temple Run, Super hexagon, Fluid SE, Playstation emu, GBA emu, and whatever else I'm not remembering right now. Anyone else have good ideas? Or other games I should try? Can't wait for Exiles to come out--that's the new massive single player RPG by the same people who gave us Ravesword Shadowlands.

Anyway, thanks for sharing!!

check out the Kingdom Rush series. their latest was just released last night and it's fun as hell.

I bought xcom enemy within last week on my Note 3. I intended to play it on a road trip this week, but they don't support Nexus 6. I copied it over from a titanium backup and restored it, and it runs, but the graphics in the gameplay are really messed up. So I bought Icewind Dale to play instead. It seems to work. Never played it back in the day so looking forward to it.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] easemachine:
XModgames does not work at all for me, I am rooted. Anyone else have luck?

Soul Calibur runs great on this phone! Also, it is on sale for $4!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] SAW_JOK3R:
Try Modern Combat 5. It has some intensive graphics. It lagged on G3 a big time. So thinking about its performance on Nexus 6. I've pre-ordered my Nexus 6 but it's yet to come. Here it'll launch on the 2nd week of December
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
U know, it's weird. I played that game on the lg G3 and it ran GREAT. Thing is, I'm not to crazy about the changes they made from part 4. These super short missions, with specific goals u have to complete. It just seems too controlled. I like part 3 and 4--it's a bit more "open" to however u want to play. Just kill everyone and don't die...lol. Seems simpler. I think they tried to make it too much like dead trigger 2 and the execution wasn't as great. It could just be me--I don't know. You're right about the graphics tho, they are awesome.

EDIT: I meant to quote the post above mine about MC 5. Don't know why it didn't work.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] b.huss2:
Haven't gotten mine yet. Can someone check to see if Mass Effect Infiltrator is compatible? I liked that game but haven't been able to play it in a while because of incompatibilities.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] ice0901:
No it's not compatible
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
U know, it's so ridiculous what EA has done (or more appropriately, hasn't done) with this game. I've had sooooo many devices that I don't remember the last one it worked on but I kno it hasn't worked for a LONG time for me on A LOT of devices. Really sucks cuz it was a good game. If u ask me EA is being really stupid. If they updated it, it would still be selling.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] b.huss2:
I know, same here. I don't remember the last device it worked on. I like console quality games like this. It's a shame they put something out there so good and just move on to something else and leave us hangin. It wouldn't be so bad but really good games are few and far between.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] umair shaikh:
U mean any EA games will not run on our nexus 6 ??? Daam !!!!!! Thts unfair

Any soln for that ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
Not all EA games. I'm only talking about mass effect infiltrator.

I downloaded Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and NBA Jam, both of which crash/fail to load on my Nexus 6. I thought it may have been due to my changing DPI, but reverting the DPI resulted in the games still failing to play.

Anyone have any luck playing these games on their N6s?

So far I've only tested a couple games and they work perfectly but my latest mobile gaming addiction is "Terraria" and sadly it doesn't work at all, black screen then a FC.

Awesome thread by the way!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] 98HTTR91:
Same for Terraria. Even worse, they updated again today and its still crashing.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] G1Master:
Yea either ART is not compatible with it or its something with 5.0 android framework. Damn my addiction itch! I have no idea what to play now haha.

Okay this thread is annoying.. All I see I'm negative complaints about what doesn't work.. That gets us nowhere.. I'm down for change and hearing about a WORKING game so let's hear some!

Dead Trigger 2 APK working flawlessly

Shadowgun Deadzone APK working

World Series of Poker working

Clash of Clans is working (Addicted)

Any more WORKING graphic intense games let me know! This thread could be awesome and enlightening
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] G1Master:
I agree let's not make this a "what doesn't work thread".

So far I've tried Dead Trigger 1, Racing Rivals, all the CSR Drag racing games, Block Story, Hero's of loot, dungeon madness, Swordigo and tiny dice dungeon. Few others I'm sure but I've already uninstalled.

As you can tell I like RPGs , racing and survival type games.

Any recommendations?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Daiskei:
I'm not even kidding, all of my games work fine. No lag. Even on 460 dpi... PPSSPP (Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep), DrasticDS (Pokemon Perfect SoulSilver), Terraria, MC, Hearthstone even (modded apk)

Grand Theft Auto 3

House of the Dead Overkill

Max Payne

Minecraft

Super Monkey Ball

Games that don't work:

Grand Theft Auto Vice City (Starts but crashes while loading game)

Jet Set Radio (Won't start) This one hurts. Cell shaded graphics would look awesome on N6

Xcom Enemy Within (Will start but with graphical glitches that make it unplayable)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] fictionoid:
XCOM Enemy Within works after 5.0.1 update.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Hand76:

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] fictionoid:
I only starter a game up to see if it still had graphic issues. I loaded up to the first level and moved a few guys with no issue.

I also tried Tales of the Borderlands and it ran great.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Hand76:
I just tried Xcom Enemy Within on SinLess 5.0.1 rom and the same graphical problems are present. Still unplayable.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Hand76:
Give it more time. If you take 5 minutes just diving aimlessly through the city it starts to lag. Tried the same on my N5 and it was perfect. Made a thread about this yesterday on the main forum.

Anyone willing to do a little test? Right after the very first mission when you get to your apartment for the first time. Watch how laggy the billboard moves as the camera pans out back on your character. That was the first sign of trouble for me.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] 20degrees:
Accidentally gave you a thanks you didn't deserve.

It doesn't lag for me. I've played it for half an hour before I even posted in here earlier.

Stock, no root, no mods.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Hand76:
Didn't deserve? I'm only trying to bring attention to a possible problem.

Games only been out for a few days and other review for N6 have already stated the same on Google play store. I played for 2 hours the main campaign and everything was fine.

It was only when I started driving all over the map that lag starts to really become noticeable over time. I would be surprised if you didn't have this same thing.

Also launch a new game if you get a chance and skip the cutscenes (hold the screen during) see if that billboard pans out laggy when you get your first apartment. I have tried 3x and it has always done that...But not on my Nexus 5
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] 20degrees:
I hit the thanks and didn't mean to is what I'm saying.

And I did skip the cut scenes.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Hand76:
Did you see what i was talking about with that bilboard? If you get a chance take a look.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wattsja:
Which (if any) of the Final Fantasy games are working on the Nexus 6 (Lollipop 5.01 is what I have loaded .. stock w/ root and custom recovery .. Encrypted)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] 20degrees:
Maybe a hesitation.

I consider it lag if I'm actually playing the game and it slows and drags. It doesn't do that for me. When I'm running or driving, it plays fine. It might have a hiccup here or there, but I'd say that's the code for the game, not from the n6. I think r* may need to fix a little bit of the code.

Plants vs. zombies 2 works perfectly! ?Fun game to pick up and play when you have a spare minute or two

Just completed the game 100% on my Nexus 5 and it was smooth as butter. Day and night difference

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obyn:
hi guys!

i just got my s4 mini and overall i'm very happy.

flashed cm11 m12 the first thing i did.

i came from a nexus s which was painfully slow.

however there is one thing that disturbs me and that's the vibrator.

it works and all that but it feels like it's "too slow" or have very few RPM. if you know what i mean?

the vibration on the nexus s was very "fast" and solid.

if i compare the two phones it feels like when i press a button on the nexus s the vibrator does 10-15 "spins" where as the s4 mini only does like max 5 but in the same time frame. like it's tired or something. :)

is this totally hardware limited or is there a way to change it?

i found this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49813458&postcount=16

does this change the "rpm" of the vibrator or just the "power"?

i guess i could learn how to decompile framework-res and try different settings but i thought maybe some of you guys have already tried it and know if it is futile or not?

or could it be that my vibrator simply is damaged in some way?

i would really appreciate your input on this!

thanks!

Right now I am running a AT&T Galaxy S4 rooted with towel root 4.4.2, and I have to send in my phone for repair because the screen is messed up. I think it is running the NC1 bootloader, as under Setting->About Device-> Baseband version and it is i337UCUFNC1. I have looked over the ODIN back to stock guides and do not see a stock rom for the NC1. Was wondering if its alright to use the NB1 update or should I be looking for something else. The build number is KOT49H.I337UCUFNC1. Thank you for any help.

I don't have the issue with my Alpha and Fiio E18... Have you check if the Fiio and USB cables works perfectly with other device?...

I used the same combo with S5 dual sim ( 900fd) and with note 4. Maybe is a problem with the cable or the Dac. I will try with another cable, with fiio e17 and with note 3. I guess will find out who's the blame. I will be back.
