Not Great For Gaming
Unfair? After all, the new iPad's Retina display and quad-core graphics make Apple's third-generation slate a fine platform for swiping games, including Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, and Apple's demo-fave, the Infinity Blade series. But the iPad's touch display can't match the options of a gamepad or keyboard, and slates aren't ideal for first-person shooters. Bottom line: FPS fans won't abandon the PC, Xbox 360, or Playstation 3 for the tablet anytime soon.
