High-Definition Games on ODROID-X

Many users requested us to make a video of game play.
Please remember the ODROID-X was designed for developers.
But we also really want to enjoy exciting games too. 🙂

I heard some games support USB joystick input-event handler in Android platform.
So I got a Xbox 360 Wired Controller from my house. My kids may be crying now. 🙂

Anyway, we must configure Kernel options to activate the Xbox contoller for Android USB interface.
Search with ‘xpad’ in Kerenl menuconfig screen and enable all the related items. Recompile the Kernel and just transfer the zImage into ODROID-X.
We will set this configuration as a default when we ship the ODROID-X.

The first game we tried is “SHADOW GUN”. It is one of the best shooting game for Android.
It ain’t just pretty—it’s gorgeous! Advanced lighting effects, beautifully rendered environments, and pro voices make
this one of the most advanced games for your Android device!

The second game is “DEAD TRIGGER THD”. Origianlly the ‘THD’ suffix means this game requires nvidia’s Tegra3 GPU.
But after simple modification of configuration file in this game, we could see exactly same graphical effects with Mali-400 Quad-GPU in ODROID-X.
Visually Stunning First Person Zombie Shooter Arcade !!!

It’s time to enjoy video again. 🙂
Please note we used the eMMC module to get faster loading time of game and its data.
