ASPHALT 5 for the DROID!!!!

[MustangGT500]

actually till they fix the performance issues i would recommend it for ipod touch. like i said droid has the 2,5 times higher screen res to calculate and the weaker gpu. with some optimizing it could sure run better, cause android haves now very good opengl drivers and opengl 2.0 support too that cant be just used for visuals also for performance increase.

my video is uploaded but not fully rendered on youtube. well it´s rendering now for 3 hours .oO you can still watch the movie but just in low quality not in hd till rendering is finnished.

on an overclocked Droid, the game runs perfectly

 

[MustangGT500]

yes but i think many people dont want to loose their warranty and are affraid of damaging the cpu. also i do.

and : a game HAVES TO work on stock devices, the developers dont have to make the useres tweaking their devices to make it run properly. or do anyone OC his psp or DS or somewhat to run a game ?

 

[wuyanks]

that's true Mustang...

as for the slower load speeds, it's because the game is loading from the SDCard... so you would expect loading to be slower on the droid

 

[MustangGT500]

the loading speed is ok in my opinion relative to the game complexity. hey i remember the game "King´s Quest 6" adventure game on my old amiga 500. if you step into a new loaction you waited one minute till the screen was fully loaded . omg. my video is still rendering lol.

 

[MustangGT500]

sorry for double post but AFTER 5 HOURS OF RENDERING (lol) my HD video is finally rendered and ready on youtube. switch to 720p to enjoy it in full quality. and sorry for my sucky english. i was a bit excited while making the video .

great review mustang. you did a good job with your english

Cop chases are fricking hard.

Not sure what everyone is talking about, this game is considerably superior to Raging Thunder 2 as far as graphics and features are concerned.

We need more high level games like this, hopefully some that are natively created for Android devices.

@wyuanks THX

@ Riddick yes. they just have to optimize the performance and adding multiplayer mode and then it would be nearly perfect .

 

[gertman]

Yeah that was a GREAT review MustangGT500. You may want to look at your search or key words 'cause I didn't see it come up as a related video when I was re-watching one of mine a few minutes a go.

Can you provide the link were this is officially posted? i assume on your website? It was really cool to see the game with German titles. AND what's even cooler is a German that thinks american muscle cars are cool!! There are sooo many American's that would spit on the Mustang when compared to a nice German car!!

Also, I really hadn't played the game that much but just today I did notice the engine noise cutting in an out and more freezing. BUT in fairness I did have Dolphin running in the background.

Imagine for a moment, multiplayer over 3g like raging thunder.

@wyuanks THX

@ Riddick yes. they just have to optimize the performance and adding multiplayer mode and then it would be nearly perfect .

I'm using bugless beast at 800mhz and there is zero lag. Other than the initial download period the game doesn't take any longer to load than any other game I play. However if this isn't true for stock 2.0.1 machines then yes, they should optimize it a bit.

 

[MustangGT500]

@riddick yes there are lags on both stock droid / milestone and even stock nexus one. game performances depends much on the gpu and like i told the nexus one´s gpu is really crap. so the 1 ghz don´t help much here. a 800 mhz droid combined with it´s lightning fast GPU sure disclass the nexus. but i dont want to OC my device like i said. and i hope gameloft will improve performance.

@gertman THX ! you can find the video now easy i think the video was still in progress. well only the rendering time on youtube tooks 5 hours lol. yes i REALLY like american cars. ferraris, mustangs, corvettes, vipers at most.and you are also german if you erase the T out of your nick . you can find the video of course on our droidblog. and soon on my own forum. but my forum is german so the most here wouldnt be intersted.

my video tags are "Asphalt gameloft android droid milestone 2.0 2.0.1 2.1 power vr sgx 530 racing game 3d graphic grafik spiel rennspiel handy mobile mustang gt 500 droidblog droidforums smartphone forum review test" if you want to add some tags please tell me.

btw : if i see the video on my pc screen i was thinking "damned why dont the droid haves tv out" . playin this great game on a big tv would be really fun i think.

I'm still interested to see what Polarbit/Pixelbite can turn out. I mean look at the difference between RT1 and 2. I'm curious to see what Raging Thunder 3 will be like. I think it'd be awesome if they made it into a Burnout style game with slow motion, traffic, and car morphing.
