Hi I'm just looking to buy an iPad soon. But my questions lies in which generation?

All I would be purchasing the iPad for is to play games on it. Nothing Huge, Like Empire Z :). Can any1 recommend which one I should get, I don't want to spend too much money on one that it's just wasting space and looks

Honestly I would get either the latest model  Air 2 or mini 4, or the generation behind, so an Air or Mini 3

 

Get at least 32gb but preferable even bigger, some games can be large

I got an Air 2 64GB and I've been happy with it. You definitely need over 16GB for gaming and I'd recommend getting the Air 2 or Mini 4 for the faster CPU. It'll help it last a longer time.

Arcturus(log here): Intel Core i7 6700K // MSI 980 Ti Gaming 6G(1454/1995) // Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz 16GB //  MSI XPower Gaming Titanium Edition // Samsung 850 EVO 500GB // WD Black 2TB // Corsair 760T // Corsair RM850i

No, looks rubbish :P pretty sure any ipad can play that game, doesnt look very demanding

 

there are so many amazing games on iOS, so you might end up playing more, I would get an Air 2, and I would get 32gb tbh I have a 32gb ipad and its 100% full

 

and my 128gb iphone has 4gb free :P
