Hands-On With Gamestop’s ASUS Tablet Bundle (Game Informer)
We recently had the opportunity to try out a new Android-based tablet bundle
being offered by Gamestop, which comes complete with a dedicated dual analog
stick controller. Here’s what gamers can expect out of the package.
First off, the obligatory disclaimer: Gamestop is the parent company of Game
Informer. That fact in no way changes our critical assessment of this tablet
bundle, which should go without saying, but had to be said nonetheless. The
tablet also comes with a demo issue of Game Informer Digital, which we’ll be
the first to admit still has a long way to go on tablets. But enough about us:
onto the impressions.
There are three main components to the Gamestop bundle: The tablet, the
controller, and an assortment of games preloaded onto the device. We’ll start
with the tablet.
**The Tablet:
**The Gamestop bundle features an ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 tablet, which
ASUS refers to as the Transformer. There’s no shortage of critic and user
reviews of the Transformer on the Internet, most of which are highly
favorable. I am in no way a tablet expert, but here are the things that I
personally like about the model, and some …
