IGN- Razer Edge Gaming Tablet Review

IGN:Despite its flaws, there's a lot of potential in the Edge and the gaming tablet category, but the concept needs refinement. Razer certainly deserves credit for leading the charge, but in order to be appealing to a wider array of consumers, the Edge needs to be lighter, faster, and less expensive.

Lol I'm sure this thing is pretty lame, but thats a super dick move by IGN to give it a 6.9 instead of a 7.0. It's kinda like when they price things at $99.99 to make your brain believe it's closer to $90 than $100.

Ummm...is one tenth of a point difference really going to affect anyones decision on whether they will buy this or not?

Either way, its pretty clear that they aren't recommending a purchase. Its WAAAAY too expensive, too bulky, and only 1 hour of battery life?

This model is a test run. Future iterations will be better.

@sdozzo- It didn't "fail". It won multiple Best of CES awards do to its unique concept(PC, console, tablet, portable gaming device all in one). It did what it was intended to do, which was give us a peek into the future of gaming tablets.

At 1500 dollars(not including the $99 dock and $70 extra battery) any idiot with half a brain would have come to the conclusion that this was never intended to do well with the masses/critics. It's simply not a practical option for most gamers yet.

maybe not 1/10, but a 7.1 game is completely different than a 7.9

the decimal scale is more accurate than only using 10 numbers. It gives you more options and variations to accurately score a game.

1500.00 after your done with accessories and it plays Crysis 3 at "Low" settings. Junk

SilentNegotiator4045d ago

What a joke. Uncomfortable as a portable device, worthless battery, over-priced, requires a bunch of accessories to even make much sense (either stand, making it not so portable in use, or uncomfortable controller thing) as a gaming device...

Something about recreating old school graphics in an era of HD high poly photo realism just hits a spot. I'm not nostalgic cause I mostly played GameCube and GB/A, but it's a visual style that gets over looked even by indies.

Definitely a fan project. Terrible hand animations. Some characters have very bad body proportions. Some look like little kids in adult bodies. Some have short arms, small head, big hips and so on.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos1h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
