for a dollar, even though it won't even boot on my original droid, it is worth having for future phones. :icon_ banana:

Droid X uses a faster version of the PowerVR SGX530 found in the OG Droid.

Galaxy S uses the SGX540; which is a much more powerful GPU.

The graphics chip is more important than the CPU for running the Unreal engine.

By the way, the difference in rendering power between the SGX530 and the SGX540 is VERY significant.

SGX530 = 7-14M triangles/second
SGX540 = 90M triangles/second

Agreed, I'm rather disappointed with it on my DroidX. It runs like garbage, but I will have it available for future phones.

I have an iPad from my work and loaded it on there. I may get a warning for this, but no, I didn't buy it a 2nd time for the iPad. I bought it once for my DX, took longer to download all the stuff for it then the return period is and am stuck with it. So ya, I 'located' it for the iPad and play it on there for now.
