Kick Back And Play Some Great Gameloft Titles With The Duo Gamer Controller

Kick Back And Play Some Great Gameloft Titles With The Duo Gamer Controller

October 1, 2012
While iOS devices are thought of as being the next-generation of gaming, a new accessory from Gameloft and Duo Games definitely turns back the clock. The new Duo Gamer is a handheld game controller with dual analog thumbsticks, six buttons, and a d-pad. To use the system, dock your iOS device in the included stand, and connect wirelessly via Bluetooth. Gamers can also connect their iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a television for a more immersive experience. The controller is compatible with Gameloft apps like N.O.V.A. 3, Asphalt 7: Heat, and Order & Chaos Online. Support for Brother in Arms 2: Global Front, Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation and other titles are promised as coming soon. The controller is $79.99 and can be found on Apple’s online store starting Friday along with Amazon.com and Target stores nationwide. While I definitely like the idea of the controller, I think its long-term success will depend on the number of compatible games. But if you’re a fan of Gameloft titles, it does look like a must-have accessory. I previously reviewed the Duo Plink from Duo Games, and was very pleased with the hardware. I’m excited to take a closer look at the controller and see if the games play any differently than with the on-screen controls. For more information about the accessory, visit the Duo Games site.
