One note about the Sony Xperia S is that in the recent E3 Sony conference, they mentioned they are expanding the playstation store and offering the PSN network to the HTC phones aswell.

@darkveroth nah. xperia play was designed specifically for gaming while the iphone 5 is not. you're not wrong though its is a great phone.

[apsluke]

True. But i only overclock it for gaming. When i'm not gaming on it, i put it back to stock.

[ReunitePeace]

I mean theres only one pair of buttons.
Many games especially on onlive where you need to pairs of buttons, a bumper and a trigger.
This means that many console games, especially first person shooters arent playable on the xperia play.
+the small screen and limited graphics. And no tegra 3

I'm debating between the 4s or the s3 I'm mostly gonna play games like subway surfers and temple run 2 if anyone has one of them and noticed any lag or no lag I'd appreciate it If u tell me how it handles :-)

Does anyone know a good phone for DS and PSP emulators? I try to play FPS games like Call of Duty 4 and Medal of Honor: Heroes but get maybe 15 to 25 FPS on a Droid Razr M. Any suggestions?

[ZDAS]

Well like I said I own one...and even though it does not have tegra 3 or whatever the games runs very smoothly frist shooter games are great with only two buttons...1 to shoot and the other to zoom aim. Even thought it is not hd but the screen is excellent to me

[ReunitePeace]

NOTE: XPERIA S DOES NOT HAVE REMOVABLE STORAGE! Though the 32 gb is IMO enough.

When was the last time you saw the xperia play...they do have triggers buttons...and by the way I own one...so I see it every day...and on the right side of the phone there are triggers button...L AND R

How can u forget the the for gaming? the sony ericsson xperia play

[BraveMeat]

Never knew iPhone 4s could get in the list. I wonder if iPhone 5 was in the list, it could be no. 1st.

[MaxSMoke]

Where is the Xperia Play 2???? (and real joysticks, those touchpads suck)

[darkveroth]

isnt the iphone 5 best for gaming? Is all 100% lag free and smooth.

[iwao]

are physical buttons definitely dead? i cant stand touching screens, for everything but especially for GAMING. what the hell are those "gaming phones"? if you cant play mario it's not made for gaming

[arthymon]

Listen guys, i've got xperia play and this phone is very weak for modern games, but this phone really cool, with joystick.

[MegaRockzer]

Tegra 3 can't play nova 3 smoothly before knowing this I was a fan boy of tegra 3

[MrFallenne]

how in the hell can't a tegra 3 device run nova 3 when my gt i9000 runs it perfectly which is nearly 2yrs old now

[nantec]

why does the samsung galaxy note 3 not here?

[thumbvids]

I feel like they made this video just to not include xperia Play and have people going WHAAA???

[kepeb]

none of these have any flucking buttons
