Welcome to Tab Gaming: Your's Next BFF (Part- 1)

Many a time, you went to near by local gaming store and came back with nothing. Are you one of them?  Here, I ‘am not talking about recession. A new kind of gamers are evolving, blame tablets than. They are smart enough to play games and work simultaneously. What an idea? 

We all face one big hurdle with gaming consoles these days. I mean from the very beginning. You know, what I am taking about.  On an average a modern gamer spent $60 on new game. And for a handheld console, add $40. Even discount stores, don’t make any difference.

So, what’s the solution? Yes, we want awesome games to play. But, we also want some productive things out of it. What’s wrong with tablets?  They are smart, sexy and productive too.

I know many of you are obsessed with your sane ipads. Many of you also own Asus transformers, Motorola Xoom among others. Now, Amazon has announced Kindle Fire, since than, the whole world is going Gaga about tablets. Amazon entry into tab market has made Apple jealous for sure. Even Sony is not far behind; they recently launch their much hyped Tablet S for $499. Another model tablet P will be available to consumers in coming months. The Japanese giant aims to be No 2 tablet maker after Apple. The Sony tablets are compatible with old PS1 titles and PSP games. Even small players too making crackling sounds with their innovative tablets.

Apart from Apple “Magical” ipad, most of the manufacturers like Sony, Samsung, LG, Asus, Acer and Toshiba use Google’s Android operating system. Though, Apple still holds most of the pie but Android based tablets would be a driving force to make market sustainable.

Now, come to the gaming aspects of tablets. When Apple launched ipad back in 2010, critics were not pleased with this adolescent baby. Some said, gamings on tablets are not up to the mark and other said it has a potential to change the face of gaming. Just like Angry Birds changed the face of gaming. On the other hand, tablets still looking out for “THE” game but don’t worry in coming months you might see tablets gaming were being ported to console gaming.
