Just downloaded asphely 5 on Nexus 1

... Well the good news is that it seems to store most of it's size on sd card (not sure how much but it took quite a few mins to download over a good wifi connection) after the initial download of about 13MB..

The bad news is that it is VERY buggy/jerky on my Nexus one, and at

That was ment to be 'Asphelt 5', but I don't know how to edit the title!!

I've made a little video showing the game running on Nexus One YouTube - Gameloft Asphalt 5 on Nexus One

This is a really good game once you get it working. VERY VERY GOOD GRAPHICS! I told them to bring Nova, Dungeon Hunter, and Brothers in Arms 2

From what I hear Asphalt 5 runs decent on the Droid.

Tried it on Acer Liquid, unplayable...

On Droidforums there are no complains, looks like on Droid, the game runs decently.
Maybe they need to optimize it for Snapdragon powered phones? The Droid has a PowerVR graphic chip, which is not supposed to be stronger than the Snapdragon one...

I was just about to grab this, despite yumito's video of it running on the Nexus One as I would hope it would be patched at a later date and really don't mind supporting developers who will bring good games to the Android platform but then I saw this:

I just bought the game too! It's WAAAY better than Raging Thunder 2. Here's my video of it.

Better than raging thunder 2? How so?

Better than raging thunder 2? How so?

It justt is. It has so much to offer. There's a lot more content, the graphics are a lot cleaner and more detailed, there's more cars, more control inputs, and uses less space(most of the game will be stored in the sd). Just play it and you'll see what I mean.

 

[jojitsu]

Well I think raging thunder two is probably the better game for the nexus one, purely because the phone can handle it better... Asphalt is definitely a better game on paper but the theory goes out of the window when the hardware is not quite capable of handling it, or the game developers have not fully tapped into the phones abilities...

 

[spottyelephant]

Well i don't really want another racing game for now - i'd love them to bring NOVA to android. That looks absolutely class.

 

[bais]

Before releasing other games, gameloft should optimize them for Snapdragon devices...

 

[gwlaw99]

Easily runs on my droid. Has better graphics thatn RT2, but is it a better game?

 

[spottyelephant]

I don't think it is. I downloaded a demo on my friend's iphone. It just doesnt give the same sense of speed, and the courses are too "normal" for me.

I'll buy NOVA the moment it comes out though! Apart from toonwarz, there's no fps on android.
