I’d like to get into android gaming if there is anything good out there. I am open for any genre but I have a few requirements

Has to be either free or have a free way to get it

Has to not be riddled with spyware (hard ask I know lol)

No mandatory accounts

Offline if possible

Preferably controller support out of the box

Is this too much to ask? Any recommendations?

Should I just look at what other old console games I can get?

      Not sure why you’re asking me, but just play the first disc first and then the second one.

          I decided to look into Vice City Stories again and discovered that the PS2 version has more side missions, which I was previously unaware of, so if you want the full experience, emulate that version instead of the PSP original, provided your device can handle it. It also looks slightly better.

              It is. Generally more of the same as the 3D GTAs. The difference between PSP and PS2 isn’t massive, so you’re not missing out on a lot.

              What are you playing on?

                  I’m assuming you’re referring to black bars left and right? Many PS2 games were 4:3, although over the course of the system’s lifespan, more and more did support 16:9 natively and the system could be set to widescreen from the start.

                  You can set the aspect ratio of the PS2 emulator on this system to widescreen in the options. This should cover most if not all games, including those that never officially did support widescreen.
