Help Gaming on the Kyocera Milano

Thread Updated 12/07/2011 @ 6:22pm EST

Just got a Milano so I'm creating this thread. I will update as often as possible. I used to have a LG Optimus S but that device was stolen. During my time with the Optimus S I created a similar thread which can be found here...

A lot was accomplished and it ended up being a very helpful thread. I'm hoping the same can be accomplished here.



NOTES:
- (2D) = sprite based
- (3D) = polygon rendered not stereoscopic 3D.
- File sizes do not reflect extra files that may be downloaded to your SD card and ONLY reflect file sizes that appear in Apps2SD
- When looking for games remember the following
A) This phone runs on a single core ARMv6 processor
B) This phone's processor runs at 800 MHz
C) This phone's screen resolution is QVGA @ 240x320

If you remember the above notes, finding working games shouldn't be much of an issue.

Update: Until I can get a larger SD card it will be a short while till I can get around to testing PS One games. Please bare with me.

----------------------------------< Note to Forum Admins >----------------------------------

Due to he fact that a great majority of these games are NOT available for the Milano via legal means through the market place, below this statement I will be posting links to pages where forum members can find many of these games. In no way do these links equal lost sales for the companies because they do not offer mentioned games for this device. With that said I'm not looking for any forum infractions or a ban hammer and will gladly delete the links at any admin's request.

To forum members: I'm not going to make things insanely easy. The first two links contain a collection of game links the only game that I'm semi-directly linking to is Dead Space, only because I think it's beyond awesome and you guys should really download it just to show off your phone to your friends. Have fun!

Tested a lot of games over the past 24 hours. Hope this list is helping someone out. I'm going back to playing Dead Space

HUGE WARNING:

Be careful with how many games you stick on your phone in conjunction with your regular apps. It doesn't matter how many games/apps you stick on the SD card, may of them will leave cache files that install directly to the phone eating up space and eventually causing your phone to crash. The end result, you will have to hard reset your phone using the recovery menu and re-install everything. It's total bullshit that Kyocera did not check into this matter before releasing this phone. For a phone that supposedly has 512 mb of storage space. It sucks that we only have access to 190 megs of that space.
