So I've been tinkering with this a bit, and I'm quite pleasantly surprised Very Happy

Considering how long it took for PSX emulation to get running properly on the PC (anyone remember Bleem? Laughing), it was quite awesome to see how well it works..with the 2 games I tested. FF7 and GT1 both run fine for me, no problems with FF1 at all. GT1 runs fine in terms of performance (~50 FPS constantly @ stock Desire), but actually driving is pretty hard on a small screen with touch buttons Razz

Anyone else tested any other games?

It's probably a port of a previous opensource effort.

As soon as they add hardware video acceleration it will be perfect. Currently it runs on processor power only. With opengles it will be teh awesum.

@ VGADeadCafe: hardly, ZodTTD is the guy behind it Wink

@ Waargh: Aye, but even so it still seems to manage to run a lot of games quite well, so I was wondering if anyone on here was using it (there's some compatability lists on grinhurtA and Wiki as well) Smile

The term for Android devices is ROOTing, which is basically hacking the machine in order to get root and SU access to low-level OS configuration/modification. You don't need to root for playing games though, they can be ran on standard Android as long as they're cracked.

Jailbreak is such a stupid name - fitting for the Apple crowd. Cool Face

Because that's exactly what it is, gaining super user permissions.

You don't need root for most of what you do with the device, but yes, that's entirely possible. Rooting on Android is needed only for running custom ROMs, and a handful of apps that need to access the very core of the device (like direct LED control or rebooting) Smile

Jailbreaking on IOS is a fairly fitting term, since without it you can't run Apps from other sources than the app store, effectively "jailing" you to what Apple allow Wink

Up until recently, without "Jailbreaking" you couldn't even change your friggin' wallpaper either. Urgh...

Lolwat, when did I stop making fun of iFags? Laughing

But I have to admit, the iOS 4 (@Sabin Smug) is much nicer than the initial condition it, there is copypasta, task switching is a good compromise (it is similar to Android, but more locked down for battery and CPU in the way of AppStore and Apple not allowing stuff that doesn't behave properly). I have not had a device with previous versions, so I don't care about that, but they seem to have got most of the stuff right with iOS 4.
