Mobile gaming has some pretty negative connotations given how rife microtransactions and ads have become. Casual games have always worked on mobile, like angry birds or fruit ninja, but if Apple can get enough AAA developers on board, that would be great. Apple are clearly far more interested in gaming than they have ever been in the past, and now they’ve got the hardware and platform integration to support it. They just need developers to build for it.
@literallycanadian9 ай бұрын
The trick is if apple gets what they want they don't even have to push that hard. The apple silicon in your Mac is the same base architecture as in your phone. As long as devs start just supporting Mac period it should be trivial to also support iPhone/Ipad. Heck, the new iPad pros are M2 equiped, and it causes no problem because at the end of the day its the same thing.

I'll believe it when i see it. Right now the list is short enough that they likely just went and signed a paid deal for them to be ported. If people buy the games on apple silicon at the same time as it's proven to be easy to port, then maybe they'll keep some momentum.
@alanharper239 ай бұрын
@@literallycanadianAbsolutely. I think their transition to Apple silicon has been the catalyst for getting more serious about gaming. That and potentially the upcoming headset. Metal on its own is fine, but I think they have realised in recent years that the “build it and they will come” approach simply isn’t enough in this case. That’s why they’ve started adding incentives for developers, like the game porting toolkit, or the shared architecture that makes it easier to bring games to both macOS and iOS, or support for mesh shaders, ray tracing, and upscaling. And of course a greater emphasis on graphics performance in their latest products. All of these things represent a larger push into gaming than Apple has ever done before.

Maybe this might encourage developers to finally port their switch releases to mobile, switch's arm soc is significantly weaker than even the flagship processors a few years ago so there's that. My biggest concern is devs figuring out touch controls, I don't think touch controls have been perfected by anyone, so innovation on that front would be great for everyone involved. I think publishers and store fronts would need to be way clearer on their supported devices on ios/android and just flat out refuse to install if you don't meet certain hardware requirements, considering the lower end of the mobile processors haven't made much performance gains over the years in comparison to their high end flagship counterparts, owing to the fact you don't really need much performance to run android + social media apps + web browsing smoothly on a device (even a 5 year old budget device with a competent soc can pull that off well enough as long as you debloat or run a clean rom on it), and mobile games generally target the lowest common denominator.

As a man and not that into clothing one at that, let me assume that potentially clothing designers are assuming women carry a bag\purse with them and the size and/or lack of pockets on their person is less a concern seeing as they have the use of said purse/bag to make up for the lack of on clothing storage?

Still, it is a shame to not always have a water bottle and sunglasses on me, and the number of times I decide to pop into the supermarket while I'm already out and end up with way more groceries than I'd brought bags for is high, not having that extra bag to both lug around and keep track of whenever I leave the house is so absolutely freeing! Of course, still have a laptop bag and a backpack for when extra supplies are needed, but the freedom from extra baggage brought by Apple Pay and the ability to use it for public transport payments too cannot be overstated.

I don't think the touch-screen gaming in this style will be particularly important , but I think controller attachments like that will eventually become an everyday sight. "Mum, can I play on the iPad?" would switch over to a request for this kind of setup, regardless of what brand of phone it is. It may not fit in your pocket, but these attachments are a lot smaller (and cheaper) than full devices. It might be underpowered for AAA games, but indie games and retro games would be a match made in heaven.

I am a PC hardware guy too, but I love the idea of a single portable device taking care of all my work, play and communications. The original iPhone brought together 3 separate pieces of technology that we needed standalone devices for; an iPod, a phone, and an Internet communicator. I think the new modern day device trio for most of adults is a smartphone for comms, a laptop for work, and a desktop or console for games. I would love it my smartphone could do all of that for me and save me the space and electricity. I know we have things like the iPad, Windows gaming handhelds, and dockable phones with desktop modes and all that, but I think the biggest hurdle is still software. For example, I need mobiles apps and broadband services for comms, but I still want Windows for games. And battery life! I need a device to last at least a full day. Unless we can bridge these kinds of gaps, we will probably still be carrying multiple devices for different needs (which isn’t bad either, but damn is electric expensive these days. I am hoping for ARM to take over x86 within the next decade).

MacBook has an advantage here with its full metal body helping to dissipate that AAA heat.

But sitting around anywhere in your space and still playing top end titles with a more personal / handheld touch was an experience. Its truly only a matter of time before every top end game of today plays natively on mobile hardware. But seeing AAA title games on a high end phone now, even still with offloading all the processing was almost an acceptable way to play thus far.

It's cool that it's possible, but for me the biggest problem about playing big games on a mobile phone is simply the screen size. Anything under 7" 16:9 is simply too small. I have a Razer kishi and have played streamed games with it (and I do live in a location where streaming can be pretty good) but everything is just too tiny. Don't get fooled by the screen size that phones list in their spec sheets either. Because of their aspect ratio, when converting to 16:9 it's more like 6,5" becomes more like 5,5" and it's really a lot smaller than a steam deck (which I love). I also had a switch lite and had the same problem with it, just didn't play it because the screen is so small it's not enjoyable. Later got a switch oled and had way more fun. I'm even considering the legion go to upgrade from my deck to the bigger screen. I understand if you're really mobile then it's not practical to carry around a bigger device, but personally I'd rather deal with that than get such a worse experience.

I can't see that happening personally. Apple don't create devices that are dedicated for a single type of task (like gaming). Their last single-purpose device was arguably the iPod, and even that evolved into a multipurpose device with the iPod touch. Instead, they prefer to add functionality to their existing multipurpose devices. If anything, their steamdeck competitor is right there in the video; it's the iPhone. The advantage being that it's a device you already have with you, rather than something you have to buy separately. As the technology improves, we can expect better performance and greater efficiency to alleviate some of the issues we're seeing in this first attempt.
