Final liberation (Warhammer epic 40.000 turnbased battle)
Moonstone - A hard days knight
UFO: Enemy unknown
Populus - the beginning

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

OK, this is the last time I post this. And I am serious about this. I want Pong. Not a color version with fancy backgrounds and sounds. I just want the good old pong. Is that doable? :D

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

1. Duke Nukem
2. Raiden 2 (there is an arcade perfect port on Win 95) :)
3. Scorched Earth
4. Unreal (original should be possible)
5. MAME -Well, it plays on the PC;)

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I seem to remember AoE first version was ported to an earlier version of Maemo (possibly Diablo?) Would be nice for that and any other versions if possible.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Mame - The ROM is available for the authentic version too. PM me if you need more info.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

The GBC version of Pong has the original version:);)

Plays well, actually.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

System Shock - the first one.

its treated as abandonware it seems (dont know if that is a big nono around here, sorry if it is)

i own a copy, still have to try it in DOSbox, but would be great with a better optimised port.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I want mini wow app that lets me continue to view chat after logging out from pc and creates a new channel called spirit channel for people that log out when they are dead.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

if possible, an old PC game "Magic Carpet" from Bullfrog would be AWESOME!!

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Syndicate by Bullfrog :rolleyes:

O. M. G.

The Amiga version. Oh yes. Well, maybe when UAE is functioning...

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Baldurs Gate 2
Baldurs Gate
Icewind Dale
Planescape Torment

GemRB for the win!

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

starcraft :D

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

"abandonware" is not a problem, having no source code is. that's true for most of the other games mentioned here as well (syndicates, baldurs gate, magic carpet, starcraft etc.)

without the source code, it's practically impossible to port any dos/windows game over, unless it runs in Dosbox, but then that's not a port, is it :)

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

baldurs gate runs just fine on nokia internet tablets via the GemRB open source implementation of the Bioware infinity engine:

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

would it be possible to port Farcry on the device ?

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Steel panthers 1 & 2
X-Com series
Fallout 1 & 2
New sam & max adventures ;)
Lot's of puzzle games

Nothing hectic. I can't even imagine playing 3D-shooters or real time strategy with a mobile device.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

come now...what about the Fallout games ( ehm pree Fallout 3 :P )

Like Fallout 1 and 2 and then Tactics...anyone?
Deus Ex ( I loved that game)
Heroes of Might and magic (the first ones anyway)
C&C Tiberium Sun (doubt it)
Old wingman games :P

hehe

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

HALF LIFE 1

i even registered to post this :D

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I would ver much like to play Captain Claw on N900. I think that if a program gets older than 10 years it gets free, or something, and captain claw is old. How baout that ?

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

The very first GTA xD

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Worms, pretty please with sugar on top! but not the wormux thingy there's availably, but the original PC game Worms!

If the N900's hardware is like the iPod Touch (or better) then it can play fine for sure! I've played Worms on my friend's iPod Touch a few days ago and I couldn't stop. game is amazing and couldn't play smoother.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Crysis ;)

na just kiddin' :D

only thing I'd love to play on my n900 is Sim City 2000

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

What about the Never Winter nights games, would they even work if ported?

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I can: Command and Conquer, displayed via TV out, controlled via the n900's touch screen would, quite simply, rock!

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

crysis would be good

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I would love a game called The Neverhood! I just love this game ^^
Animation point and click game!

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Captain Claw was cool..fun to play :D

Skyroads!

with same controls are bounce :P

EDIT: just remembered there are levels that is impossible to finish with bounce controls lol.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

i would just be happy with dosbox that worked well, or if someone could tell me how to map all the keys, so i can type numbers in dosbox etc.

Then I could play gems like:
Tie fighter (i actually got this to boot on dosbox the other day, and got a mission to start!!!!!)
Descent (series)
Raptor
Lemmings
Commander Keen series
Duke Nukem series
Hexen/Heretic
the list goes on and on.....

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

GTA I would be nice

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

well, actually i personally wouldt like to play guildwars on my n900
:p:eek::rolleyes:

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Redneck Rampage

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I`d love to be able to play Fallout 1 & 2 on N900

I tried to run Fallout 1 through DosBox 0.73...

Every time I start the game, it goes to the Please Stand By screen and then stops

Edit: I finally managed to play Fallout 1 through DosBox 0.73

Copying the all the installation CD files into N900 and installing the game from within N900 through DosBox fixed the startup issues i had.

However, the game runs incredibly slow... from starting the DosBox > Please Stand By > Interplay movie > Game settings > Character creation > to actually playing the game, it takes around 15 minutes(skipping all the movies in the proccess).

Hoping that future releases of DosBox will improve the game speed.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

i'd like to see other tux games or chromium b.s.u, theres already a arm version of it from what i gather by reading various sites so thats a good start.

i'm so addicted to super tux its unreal, I did all bonus levels apart from 2 levels on bonus levels 2, the levels what auto scroll are too hard with no d-pad

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Once in game is it fast enough to actually be playable?

Just curious if I should bother trying this myself.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

If anyone at bioware is listening I would gladly re-pay for ports of any of their past releases or future to n900.

Espescially NWN and Baldur's Gate 2.


NWN was ported to linux, but would likely require extensive modification to get running on n900, recompile to arm, and switch to OpenGL ES 2

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

What do you think of Kingpin: Life of Crime

There is even a linux version of the game!

Can sombody make it work? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingpin_(computer_game)

Minimum system specs are

233MHz CPU
64MB RAM
OpenGL-based video card
Sound card

ps. I am an linux newbie so i need time to work this out on my own.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

Realistically, I think Neverball and Neverputt would be awesome to get onto the N900. I'd love to help port it over, but sadly I am not too skilled with coding and such. However, its open-source nature would prove to make porting much easier than most other games listed here.

Neverwinter Nights or any other RPG along those lines would be fantastic, but I don't know if we'll ever see that happen :/

Bounce is proof that the N900 is capable of some pretty amazing graphics in a mobile game. Let's try to take full advantage of it.

Re: PC Games you want ported to Maemo 5?
 

I'm surprised publishers still haven't realized that new portable platforms are a great way to monetize much of their old content. Many old games could see new life on smaller more limited platforms

It's a format shift, granted requires more work than format shifts for other media.

But format shifts can be *VERY* profitable, just ask the record industry.
