[QUOTE="gsxrboy, post: 40952, member: 27"] Correct ! Not only that, but the limiting factor mentioned in his reply seems to be the space requirement (i.e. downloadability) of the tables being 4x larger. That would take up lots of valuable storage space and push them (likely) above the (in iOS case, don't know about Android) the 50mb cellular size limit, which would be a bad idea. Considering the iPad 3/4 and the new Nexus 10 run hugely bigger resolutions than a 1080p PS3/360 game, the tables for those aren't exactly consoles versions "dumbed down" for mobile platforms. The speed that mobile platforms are improving shows they will over take the current console performance very very soon, if they haven't already in some regards. Even if a PS4/720 comes out tomorrow, they will have to have a 7-10 year life span (to justify the development cost of the hardware) and what ever tech they have at launch, will have to stay that way for a long long time. Mobile tech isn't going to slow down any time soon. [/QUOTE]
