This gen consoles have been around since 2005 and they still beat the living shit out of games on the ipad - how do you think its going to compete when the next gen consoles are out next year or so? Hell, I don't even think that the ipad has any games that match PS2 games. The best game on ipad is final fantasy tactics and thats a fucking PS1 port.

Apple's new iPad making waves in video game market

From Electronic Arts to "Crysis" developers Crytek, industry executives are figuring out ways to migrate graphics-intensive so-called hardcore games to the iPad. Epic Games and Namco Bandai (TYO:7832) took the stage at Apple's iPad unveiling this week to show off what they can do with an iPad that has a faster quad core processor.

With more than 55 million iPads sold to date, including 15.43 million last quarter, the tablet is quickly catching up to the number of consoles on the market: the PlayStation 3 has sold 62 million units and Xbox 360 has moved more than 65 million units. That growing user base is drawing developers who want to see their games played on as many devices as possible.

"Apple is definitely building their devices as if they care a lot about 'triple-A' games," said Mike Capps, president of Epic Games, the studio behind "Gears of War" for consoles and "Infinity Blade" for the iPad.
