AnonD-63410, 18 Jul 2012hello guys.. im planning to buy this phone thru ebay.in, ... moreWell prakash, you'll definitely have problems playing some HD games but not all of them. I cannot post the games' names because it can be considered advertising. The main reason some HD games won't run is, as you said, due to the low RAM this phone has. If you stick to Android Gingerbread and get rid of the bloatware (and don't keep too many app running in the background) you may succeed at playing HD games but your phone will catch some heat (that's common in the Arc S because of the 1.4Ghz processor and the Adreno 205 combo). Anyway, I encourage you to stay away from Android ICS as it has some problems with HD Games (for what I read, it's Google's fault, not Sony's)- Hope I helped you.
