One of the biggest “controversial issues” going on in the gaming space right now is the question of what the “future of gaming” will be regarding how people play. No, not in the sense of “consoles vs. handhelds” or even the question of VR, but simply in how people purchase titles for their systems. Currently, all publishers make physical and digital copies of their games, which has been the case for a few generations now. However, many reports indicate that companies like Microsoft and Sony might eventually shift away from physical versions. However, Capcom isn’t going to be joining them if they do that shift.

I always tell people that iPads, specifically iPad Pros, have the best displays for any tech device. Even dating back to the 2018 iPad Pro, that 120hz ProMotion display was second to none. As we have gotten new iPads, Apple has doubled down on the display by giving us MiniLED with the M1 iPad Pro, and now we have new OLED panels with the new M4 iPads. But aside from using features like Sidecar, you cannot natively use your iPad as a dummy display for other video sources. I am going to show you how.

Most who actually love gaming, rather than the tribalism that comes with it, will admit that the 'Console Wars' are silly and childish. To breathe life into them ever-slightly, it's fair to say that on the grand scale of things, PlayStation is usually the company among the big three that tends to come out on top more often than not, with the biggest swaying factor being the long list of PlayStation exclusives over the years.
