You can't see the actual game because your huge thumbs are blocking the screen. No feedback from the controls makes it difficult to play.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/We don't hate HD2, we just don't like WinMo
fullspeed FPSECE emulation has been possible for years now, it's just that manufacturers are stubborn about provide proper GPU support for their devices
While HTC did good on this model, they have been a big offender on other models
http://www.htcclassaction.org/

Strangly enough this continues even after Apple proved that giving good hardware and software does work in the mobile industry, with games being the vast majority of sales in their App Store.
This probably fueled Microsoft's decision to make improvements in WinMo 7 that past users have been asking for, including GPU support, Xbox Live, and Zune

Not only does this emulator play well on the HD2, it plays great on the Touch Pro 2 and other similar phones. Although it won't play Tekken 3 as well, I get 50-60 FPS on FFVII.

Want to torrent directly onto the phone and watch the video without having to transcode? WinMo has been able to do that for a while.

Also when it comes to gaming Microsoft has Direct X which is far superior to any OpelGL implementations out there.]]>Dec 30th 2009 7:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/without transcode? how ?]]>Dec 30th 2009 7:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/There are various mobile media players out there for Windows mobile that will play almost every format without the need to transcode.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Core_Pocket_Media_Player

"TCPMP supports many audio, video, and image formats, including AC3, HE-AAC, AMR, DivX, FLAC, H.263, H.264, JPEG, Monkey's Audio, MJPEG, MPEG-1, MP2, MP3, Musepack, MS-MPEG4-v3, PNG, Speex, TIFF, TTA, Vorbis, WAV, WavPack and XviD. It supports many container formats, including 3GP, ASF, AVI, Matroska, MPEG, OGG, OGM and QuickTime. Some formats, such as H.264, require a plugin, which may hamper performance.

With a third-party plugin, TCPMP can support youtube videos and other flash video formats."

The player above has been discontinued.

It is now being updated by corecodec

Most people's problem with WinMo lies with its usability. Its user interface is very dated and it has some stability issues. Of course, HTC Sense eliminates the usability issues, so you're left with a very nice phone here.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
Personally, I think most people's problem with WinMo is the same problem they had with post SP1 Vista.
That being, someone told them it sucked, and they couldn't be bothered to think for themselves.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
Agreed. Lets just hope WinMo 7 gets the same greeting as Windows 7]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
I agree, I really experienced no problems with Vista, other than a few printers not really working in the beginning but as far as the OS goes, it really wasn't the fail people made it out to be.

Same for Windows Mobile, it's a great OS but has got a bad rep by word of mouth, much like the iPhone was completely over hyped due to the same word of mouth.

Goes to show you that if someone says something sucks enough people will start believing it and they will say it sucks to someone else without ever trying it, and eventually hundreds of thousands of people believe something without even trying that said something. It's a shame really.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
I truly hope that WinMo 7 is built from scratch and not on the legacy CE platform - Truly WinMo can do some powerful stuff for power users - Just I'd like to be able to make and receive phone calls every now and then without the OS crashing...

I think I'll stick with where Android is going until something better comes along :)]]>Dec 30th 2009 10:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/

FF? Man, it's almost '10s not '90s.

FF refers to a series that's still among the biggest and most popular games out there. There's an extremely high profile Final Fantasy game coming out next year, it's not like he's talking about something that hasn't existed in 15 years.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/

The PlayStation (abbreviated PS, PSone, PS1, or incorrectly, the PSX)

- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
Why is the PSX abbreviation incorrect? As far as I know, PSX was an internal codename for the system when it was in development and it just kind of stuck when it came out. It was never an *official* abbreviation, but neither was PS1.

Many years after the PSX abbreviation was in common use to refer to the original Playstation, Sony released an actual product called PSX that was based on the PS2. Maybe that's what you're thinking of, but it was definitely used for the original system first.]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
This is why calling a PS1 a PSX is incorrect.

The PSX already exists. ]]>Dec 30th 2009 8:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/30/htc-hd2-plays-tekken-3-using-fpsece-emulator/
