   If only it was wireless. I can see the inflexibility of a HDMI cable getting in the way here.

   Despite this, if I do pick up an iPad (VERY tempted, just trying to justify the cost), I will have to invest in a very long cable, because if more devs utilise this feature, it could lead to some really good game ideas.

   I normally hate on Apple, but this is the first thing I’ve seen that impresses me. But only slightly.

   No one disses gaming on iOS because of any apparent deficiency in graphics. It’s the lack of a precise physical input for the games that is the problem. I’ve already used a tilting controller in Mario Kart Wii and it fucking sucks. These sort of things also need auto-accelerate and break which just ruins any sense of precision or control. Give me a small (but comfortable) controller that connects via bluetooth to the ipad/phone and then I might consider it.

      Kegs, the tilt control in the ipad works excellent, very precise…also I have strapped the ipad to a gaming steering wheel and that makes it even more stable. ie sitting in a Playseat setup with the ipad strapped on the wheel and the ipad connected to projector.
