    Pretty interesting article on portable Android gaming.
    I'm glad there is an HDMI output on that thing so you can connect to your large HD screen.
    Thats cool in its-self!
    Funny how he says most of the Android games aren't made for a controller, but the 5 in. screen is also a touch-screen, so that will help.
    I'm shocked it could play & stream games from Steam on the PC... how the heck does that work?
    He was playing Left4Dead 2 and Bioshock Infinite on it... Wow!

    I personally stay away from Android games because I'm a PC guy, but if I was solely interested in portable games, Android or iOS would be the way to go. The hardware in this thing and controller with HDMI output make it a very nice option.
