Pinball HD was also for Tegra2 only, but someone hacked something in it and now there is another version which runs PERFECTLY on my Galaxy S2 with Mali GPU.
So they COULD make it run on other up-to-date gpu devices, but they probably made a contract with Nvidia...
(Mali GPU is a lil more powerful, than Tegra2, but Tegra2 has some unique commands which Mali does not support... HOWEVER if they used the STANDARD OPELGL commands, which both GPUs are 100% compatible with, there would be no problem running these games on any opengl standard compatible phones...)

Gameloft also locks their games for phone IMEIs, so if I change my phone in the future, I would have to buy their games again... O'rly?

So... #@)$* them. And @#%& me if I'm gonna pay for any of this ripoff games...

With some games now being hacked to allow them to play on non Tegra 2 devices, I wonder if this one will be hacked too. I already got a few and they look and run perfectly on my Galaxy S. Finger's crossed.

I nearly thought this would work on my htc desire z since I got the hd pinball to work fine however I get the error that the device I'm using is not supported. hd pinball runs sweet though and that clearly has the "Powered by tegra logo" I will test other tegra games to see if they work aswell, I'm not that sad that this doesn't work as I know that the tegra is not much more powerful then the adreno 205 and the adreno beats the tegra in some area's. Good luck Smegra. Oh Necroz you haven't seen shadow gaurdian have you? I'd say it has better graphics then your samurai game.

Don't get your hope up guys. Pinball HD uses standard android texture (ETC1) which is compatible with other GPUs. This game is using DXT texture compression that is only supports in Tegra, PC and Consoles. DXT is relatively new to mobile phones. You need an android phone with DXT hardware support and Tegra is the only one so far.

Smegra...ummmmm you seem really upset about the Tegra chipset being able to do things that your 2 years old 205 cannot do. You have a link to the benchmarks, because i've got an Atrix and I've got an Incredible S, and the Atrix destroys the Incredible S in every reputable benchmark ive tried.

You spreading lies which i do not accept. I'm sorry you cannot afford an upgrade, but don't be mad about it. Good luck running the latest games. I'm looking forward to Galaxy on fire 2 btw.

you guys realize that 90% of these games don't use the full Tegra2 chipset.
Almost none of these games use the exclusive Tegra2 Shader Library.
Once the developers will start using the Tegra2 Shaders, those games won't work on any other non Tegra powered phone.
It would be like running a windows app on ubuntu...

All you guys know is how to whine and curse companies and look at benchmarks made on outdated apps like Quadrant... seriously???
you guys have no clue about technology or programming at all.

johnnydj, no need to be harsh... some of us do know technology and programming... and never say never... we can run windows app on ubuntu with wine right? :)

By the way, does anyone have a list of Tegra 2 only games that works on Galaxy S? :) Pinball works pretty good :)

If you know so much about technology and the industry as you think, you will know that by the time those "amazing" extra tegra features are used by any one, there will be much faster GPUs out there already...in fact they are out all ready so sorry mate.

Gypsy's with cell phones?!?! What's going in the world today. I'm sorry but I didn't realize i was in the presence of the next Mushmisho, or whatever your ex commie leader was called. Does your wife have a degree in Chemistry?

You're so cool that you didn't even list your country or your phone.
Yet you come here and call me a gypsy, and talking about my wife and some unknown Mushmisho guy. (is that japanese???)
What does chemistry have to do with this? You obviously didn't even finish high school.
At least I speak 4 languages, not like you (dirty american???) who can't even talk proper English...

Oh and... why are you upset?
You're too poor compared to me, to buy O2X or Xoom?
Time to get a job bro. Can I suggest wiping the garbage on the streets?

since we're at calling out on family members, how about you go and fuck your homeless mom in the ass? :)

by the time something better will come out, there will be Tegra3,4,5,100 on the market already.

you really think that a fresh company can just rise up and give Nvidia a challenge??? wow...
It's like you coming out with an OS and compete with Microsoft :D
