Help So how will the Moto Defy handle games?

I also played Quake3 and it remained between 30-40 fps. It was the old free kwaak3 beta, so I don't know how well the one on the market would perform. I also downloaded googleearth and it ran just fine.

Yes according to Quadrant and every CPU/System info app I've used, it shows powerVRSGX530. So whatever OMAP it has, it has that powerVR GPU.

Angry Birds is working fine on mine too.

Angry Birds does odd things on lots of phones, and I think it's just down to questionable coding. It's hardly a game to push most Android phones to the limit.

Okay, so I'm very curious about that one. I like that phone, but gaming would be a deal-breaker for me.

If anyone could try Final Fantasy 7/9 (or other roms) with PSX4Droid on his Defy and give a feedback (experience, frame rate, video, etc), it would be great.

@RichieHD: Did you buy the phone? Your experience?

ive had a defy for a few months now and its pretty good for regular 2d games and some 3d games like need for speed shift, but i found the really intensive games usually make it freeze up. ex:i tried contract killer and it would work for a couple minutes then grind to a stop. i would have to take the battery out to restart it. as for angry birds and not as intense games it performes beautifully.

ive had a defy for months now and this is what i do. i downloaded set vsel and when i want to play games like contract killer i turn my processor to 1.2ghz at 66vsel. it will almost always run it without grinding to a stop. ive also taken a piece of clear packaging tape and put it over the screen to make it not so sensitive. now it works beautifully.
