I picked up Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 yesterday, I'm addicted already. Reminds me of the days of playing it on the ol Playstation 2! :cool:

Does it spoil the film like the console game does?

Mrk - I need a word about two of those games in particular. You got Gtalk or something?

So many good games, so little time to play them all!

I need more though

I know that feeling!

Still more that aren't installed too due to incompatibilities & laziness!

Not sure if my Chainfire 3D install is working correctly. I've got the Pro version, installed the nvidia plugin and fixed market settings but most of the tegra games are showing as incompatible. For example can anyone check if they can download Max Payne?

Same with me, cant seem to download max payne from the play store even though i have chainfire 3d installed.

No idea, haven't tried it myself yet.

I imagine it would be very similar to the storyline of the film though.

Are there Any Sat Navs that allow maps to be saved to phone/SD so I don't constantly hammer my data?

mrk · 4 Jul 2012 at 14:02

Oooh I have Fruit Ninja bought from years ago, must reinstall

(and a few others).

The quad core and faster memory helps

Takes about as long as my S2 did and backups are 1GB larger!

NavFree.

Hows about Speedball 2?

mrk · 4 Jul 2012 at 14:47

£2 for that?

No!

AndyCr15 · 4 Jul 2012 at 14:47

I'm assuming you never played the original?

PiKe · 4 Jul 2012 at 14:49

Add me to Song Pop, username is cspiby.

Is that like Dead Ball Zone?

mrk · 4 Jul 2012 at 14:50

Nope

Tempting though...but not at £2!

Erm, it's like Speedball 2...? You guys should hang your heads in shame if you call yourselves gamers, but don't know what Speedball 2 is, or who the Bitmap Brothers are

That's like a history student not knowing who Genghis Khan is!

The Amiga days were when I was Nintendoing it up!

Want Google Now to work on ICS? Without voice, but everything else works - traffic, weather etc.

Firstly, download http://www.mediafire.com/?u09rrb81ju6bkp7 - there's a couple floating about, but this one works for me on CM9. Some others might give you a network error on start up.

Rename the APK to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
Go to system/app and rename the original GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
Copy in the new renamed GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
Set the permissions, to the /System/App/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to rw-r--r--
Reboot and enjoy.

Search this thread if you're having issues.

Is there much point without the voice functionality?

Yup, hold down menu key and bam, all the cards without talking. The voice functionality is nice, but not needed. People are working on that though it seems.
