[QUOTE="EldarOfSuburbia, post: 254506, member: 4106"] Hands-down the best device for playing TPA is a gaming-quality PC. Doesn't have to be super-specced, but don't skimp either. A recent-generation mid-range GPU (GTX 950/960, 1050/1060, or the AMD equivalents), and a decent i5 processor. Platform-wise, Android and Steam typically get updates fastest. Of course a PC isn't portable, so if you want portable, get an Android tablet. As mentioned, the Shield K1 is still the Holy Grail for Android gaming, so if you can find one, jump on it. Failing that, Sony Xperia tablets are good, but pricey. As far as 'phones go, right now you could do a lot worse than a Google Pixel. Avoid Samsung devices, they're overly bloaty and don't get updates pushed to them nearly soon enough. Also they moved their tablet lineup to 4:3 from 16:9 and often TPA doesn't always play nice with 16:9. [/QUOTE]
