Making it stuck at home in the first place. Awkward controls, and annoying table placement. If you plug it into a TV it turns into a home console. Defeating the benefits in the first place. Are you willing to do a 12 hr game marathon on your 500$ iPad? Wearing out the device thats really for medium work load faster. Not to mention a 20-50GB game on a portible device. That's only one game avabile if you dump everything off it. IF you own the 64GB version. Let alone the $1000 128 GB iPad. You'll be syncing like crazy. There is no viaiblity to modern games. Ports of decade old games, yes. But games of now. Forget that. |
Good points. Everyone points to power, but to me aspects such controls, storage space, game selection and pricing models are all big parts of gaming.
