By your logic laptops should have already phased out consoles. Trust me, consoles are sticking around. And if they ever get replaced, it will not be by a low-power tablet. That’s not how you win the graphics war.

I would go with a different, practical look to this. Consoles will probably stick around for years to come simply because it’s far less likely that someone in the house will just up decide to take a console to work and it would defeat the purpose of a tablet to leave it in it’s dock forever. That being said…if I was still single and living alone…sure, I’d probably go for it.

I’m not sure about that. In a few years tablets will be more powerful than this easily. Not only are they portable but they can also be hook up on your Flat screen via HDMI. Not to mention you can use them as game consoles with blue tooth PS3 controllers now. It also seems like everything will be going digital so no need for blu-ray. In a way they will be a sexier console, that does so much more. The current 360 can run Netflix, Espn, Hulu, YouTube etc…so can a tablet. Less of a hassle too. Now don’t get wrong I love my consoles but it won’t be too long before Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft goes all in on the tablet thing. Seeing that Sony hasn’t thrown in their hand yet, they could come out with a PS4 tablet that’s super power. Highly unlikely but I believe its coming. Think about it though, PS3 to Vita. Vita, PS3 on the go. You know they are thinking of a way to make that “one” device. A tablet that’s super charged makes a lot of sense to me.

Yeah but you have to take into account that Sony and Microsoft will be announcing their newest consoles this year or in the next two years. And they aren’t oblivious to the tech being put into tablets. Especially in this case since they work with Nvidia in different areas.

Considering they are most likely going to be announcing one or two new consoles this year, not to mention the Wii U that was already announced, yeah….not anytime soon. Plus you can easily see that they aren’t going anywhere by the billion dollar game franchises that are prolific on them. I personally don’t see consoles going away for a really long if ever. Just because casual gaming is really profitable on phones and tablets, doesn’t take away the audience from home consoles. All it does it create new gamers and a portion of those gamers will actually get in to console gaming as well.

Yep, exactly what I’m hoping for, I’m not buying a new tablet just for this. But I could see them only making it work with their newest tablet hardware. Last I checked, Borderlands 2 was still slated to come out around Christmas time this year. Here’s hoping it doesn’t get pushed back again.

What app are you using though to play with your controllers? I have that Joystick app and I could not get my Galaxy Tab to read my 360 controller. I have everything I need for it to work too, in the way of hardware.

It’s not an RPG, it’s a hybrid of an RPG and First Person Shooter.

But man I loved the first one on my Xbox 360,I even played it until I got my full 1,000 gamerscore in it! Having a Tegra 2 device I would rather it come out on that too instead of just Tegra 3. But I’m sure it’s just a matter of processing power, and I would think the Tegra 3 would have more, so that’s a big suck. But I’m still going to play it on my 360. And in the end that’s where games like this shine and are more fun to play.

Wii Classic, Xbox 360 and PS3 controllers all work on tablets. Some even with touch emulation, making them work with any game. What’s the problem again?

I suppose I wouldn’t mind docking my phone/tablet to use as a gaming console on my home tv; though I doubt I would enjoy playing an fps on the go.

How long before home consoles are phased out?
