$49.99 for the Gamepad makes it worth a try.

$49.99 for the Gamepad makes it worth a try.

that's what I told my co-worker, at $50 it is well worth the risk that it might suck and/or not get used very much

Game pad is one of the reasons I got this phone, was happy to see it on sale. Now to find games optimized for a game pad.

it's worth it and there's a Moto game app that has many controller based games from the play store

It is kind of cool and kind of sucks. I will post a video in a day or so, but I didn't have a lot of success finding games where the controls worked properly.

At first, I only used games from the Moto Game Explorer app. And some worked and some had weirdness. Like in one game anytime I pressed X it would launch the SwiftKey keyboard which made no sense. In a zombie game the right analog stick controls were inverted.

That being said, the product does seem high quality. And when the controls did work it was awesome. Sonic worked like a champ.

When I tried various games from the Play Store, not found on the Moto app, it pretty much never worked. Only half the controls worked for Altered Beasts.
I am not a huge mobile gamer in the first place, I just wanted to try it. I got it for the Verizon sale, for $52 it was worth taking a shot.

However I think most mobile games just suck

Anyone got a link to an article or something that tells me how to setup an emulator on my Z2? I have setup RetroPie before and I do like those old school games and they should be legit on this if they work correctly.

I will say the DuckTales Remastered game from the Play Store works like a champ
