The graphics are really good on the new iPad, great for racing games although you can forget me playing FPS at this time, PS Vita, PS3 or Xbox 360 for that.

With the way displays have been improving on the tablets/phones if some external controller compatibility is reached and games start supporting these then it would really be taken seriously as gaming platform. I for one, can't keep playing fps games like NOVA, Battlefield by sliding fingers over flat slippery glass touchscreens.

Well said, the iPad can stream well to 55-inch HDTV's now add some controller support and we got another angle for gaming.

The games are looking nice, but I still can't take it seriously as a viable handheld gaming device. Ps vita does that job just fine at the moment

danswayuk4427d ago

While I agree with games like Mass Effect, the same cannot be said for racing games, which play much better on the iPad. As an owner of both the PS Vita and iPad 3, and played Real Racing 2 HD on the iPad and F1 on the Vita, I know what I prefer especially when streaming to a HDTV and using the iPad as a wheel and second display with dials etc.

Nice read. Crazy where tablets are going in the graphics department.

A couple more generations of iPads and the graphics are going to me amazing

specialguest4427d ago

I don't expect it to not be amazing since there's a continues annual upgrade on the hardware. One of the issues is the potential split market of current gen iPads vs old gen. Will those who have the older model iPads be able to run games made to take advantage of the higher end hardwares of the latest and greatest iPad?

I had the LaserActive... it was a nice collectors piece but not very practical. Especially when it came to needing recapping. I think i paid all of about $50 for the floor model from an incredible Universe back in the day. I ended up selling it many years later for $300 at the time due to it needing a new laser and the aforementioned recapping.

An honorable mention not on the list would be the VM Labs Nuon. It basically looked like any regular DVD player but it had ports on it for controllers to play specific games. one of which is still exclusive to it with Tempest 3000. It also offered nuon enhanced DVD movies with extra content not accessible by regular players.

Wasn't there some KFC console, or am I mistaken?

Why Epic's Win Against Apple And Google Paves The Way For The Future Of Mobile Gaming

Epic Games winning its cases against both Apple and Google is shaping the way forward for the future of mobile gaming.

shinoff218354d ago

I feel alot of mobile gamers are kids which will at some point probably turn to console or pc. Mobile gaming just doesn't cut it for me.

AlterRecs53d ago

tru dat, but i feel like it's gonna be a lot more viable for people who travel a lot or don't want to invest in a full gaming rig. Think of it as a Switch on drugs, with a LOT more room for free illegal downloads.
