Nvidia Shield running Crysis 3 Natively!

Not sure what people fail to understand about this post. The size, power and heat expelling constraints of mobile devices ensure that desktop is the choice for ultimate performance. Mobile continues to improve but so do desktop options as well. Just because an individual may be comfortable within the limitations of mobile devices doesn't mean that these limitations magically disappeared. 

 

Ultimate performance will always be found in a desktop. It's great that mobile gaming advances but declaring the desktop as archaic and obsolete is a shallow observation at best.

But his "Cloud computing"...lol.

Also to Linux - HAH. The only people who seem to think Linux is a thing are Linux fanboys. I've used Linux before, it needs more than a lot of work to be something that normal people can just pick up and use. Which is what an OS needs to be. And lets be blunt - OS X has more developer support than Linux ever will and both of them are stains on the toilet of Window's 500 room mansion.

I'm ok with the hardware limitations of mobile devices. What I am most certainly not ok with, is with the software limitations of mobile devices. Particularly the Android Playstore which is being used here: Sure you have Crysis and Half Life 2 right now, maybe Valve will throw you one other bone. Other than that? Guess what decent games you will be able to play natively that are on the play store: Yep, fucking nothing.

 

Well unless games are made and ported over they wont run anyway, even if you had access to other stores.... so thats a mute point

 

There are decent android games and tons of awesome emulators, plus future games that may be ported over, its possible they might do a crossbuy thing, we never know

The only decent ones I've found are ports from old PC games. The rest I am sorry to say but I vehemently disagree with you: it's just endless piles of motherfucking gameloft junk and pay to win microtransaction ridden bullshit. We've been told again and again about the potential of the play store and every single motherfucking gaming device based on it has failed because the store itself, in fact the entirety of all fucking mobile gaming are designed to skim out a few bucks out of elementary school kids and bored moms that use their tablets while taking a shit.

SNIP

 

thats why I prefer gaming on iOS, that said there are still some decent Android games, just very few and far between

 

But otherwise I agree

Nvidia is pushing Google though.

That is pretty amazing isn't it.

I know, it sucks gaming is way better on iOS, just a shame there are no great control options for my iPhone and iPad

 

I see the potential of nvidia here, but I think I agree unless they have the software to back it, its a pointless purchase
