Report shows that AAA games for iPhone and iPad aren’t exactly a hit with users (9to5mac.com)

I really, really don't want to play AAA games on a touchscreen.

You can use a controller and it works great, but at this point I bet you’d rather use a larger device. It does make a lot more sense on iPads though

It’s certainly doable, but I think a smartphone makes too many compromises to be a great gaming system for much outside of casual games.

It’s cool that I might be able to play such a game on the phone, but if I care about the game I don’t think I want to.

My Ipad now has a second function as a netflix game “console”.
