toptenmaterial Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) I have noticed an increasing amount of console games arriving on mobile platforms. I played Grand Theft Auto 3 on my iPhone 5 last night, and while the game itself runs beautifully, the controls suck big time. I'm thinking about getting myself a tablet and blue tooth controller setup for these console rereleases. Any thoughts?

TPA5 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) I have noticed an increasing amount of console games arriving on mobile platforms. I played Grand Theft Auto 3 on my iPhone 5 last night, and while the game itself runs beautifully, the controls suck big time. I'm thinking about getting myself a tablet and blue tooth controller setup for these console rereleases. Any thoughts? I know that people connect PS3 controllers to their Android tablets often, it seems to be the most popular method. Here's a video showing that: Although that video mentions you can't use wireless controllers without a Sony tablet, if you root your Android you can use bluetooth controllers with a much wider range of devices. (And really, you should root any tablet you get if it has Android. It makes them so much more useful) In terms of the actual Android tablet you use, the world is your oyster. There are nigh-endless options for tablets in the Android world, although ones that stand above the rest are the Google Nexus 7, and the various offerings from Samsung. What budget are you thinking? How big do you want the screen? Is it important at all that the tablet have cellular data capability? Is there much else you would use the tablet for besides gaming?

goldenegg Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm thinking about getting myself a tablet and blue tooth controller setup for these console rereleases. That's a timely thought, as Nvidia is launching this next week. http://shield.nvidia.com/gaming-tablet/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cimerians Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 That's a timely thought, as Nvidia is launching this next week. http://shield.nvidia.com/gaming-tablet/ Thats an android tablet? I wonder if it has access to the google Play store. If it does it might be a gamers dream tablet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenegg Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 The standard Nvidia Shield uses the Google Play Store, so I'd expect this to as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springning Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) As I know, the JXD S7800b game console can smooth running GTA. Buy a game console is more convenient to play many popular and professional games. Edited August 12, 2014 by springning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
