Hardware Nvidia updates Shield Tablet with Grid cloud gaming

I've been drooling over this tablet for a while. Maybe it's time to take the plunge with that green box bundle...

 

Oddword? Or Oddworld?

 

Shame there is no way to test grid without taking the plunge and buying the tablet, it does sound like an excellent service option since it means you can play Android games on the tablet and then plug into the TV and also play AAA PC games, so would sit nicely as a games console replacement. That is assuming the latency is low and the costs also low (AFAIK it isn't clear yet what the monthly cost will be after June)

 

i play eve online on my ipad using splashtop. When i say play i mean i mine remotely whilst sat at my desk at work. The wifi connection we have at work is poor and it spikes out often but it's playable. I can see streaming becoming common in the future when bandwidth catches up/becomes more affordable.
