Playing Sid Meier`s Pirates with touch on the NVIDIA Ion Intel Atom powered joojoo tablet

There be pirates everywhere these days , on tv at the movies and in our games  , and after our games as the Sony Hack be provin`


But the most fun with Pirates , in video game form , apart from the adventures of Guybrush , lies in Sid Meier`s Pirates .... and me hearties , let me tell ye the most fun with Sid Meier`s Pirates be on a Windows 7 tablet playing the scurvy game with touch . 


And playing with touch is perfect , as Sid Meier and Firaxis crafted such a beautiful interface and control scheme ye can dance a jig with the guvnors daughter , with the deftest of ease as I will show ye in the video below .  Combat , and all the other options are in a 9 key box on the bottom right , and for once these buttons are big enough to click . 


The ability to play with touch also makes every one of those quicktime combat and dance routines easier , you no longer have to hunt the flashing key , you just touch it on screen as soon as it lights up, pulling governors daughters has never been so easy , and finally I am able to buckle my swash with the best pirates out there as combat too has just become a whole lot more intuitive . 

It goes without saying that the Ion powered Joojoo is an awesome full Windows games machine . And touch is breathing new life into many of my old and new games ...  


Oh and Alpha Centauri works too ! When I stop playing and have time to film it ye shall see me hearties ..


Lately the web is full of rumblings , nVidia are none too happy about Android tablet sales , the thing is Apple have that arena cornered , where nVidia could have cleaned up is by giving people something Apple cannot or will not for the foreseeable future , I am talking about the sort of tablet that you see running this steam game , nVidia and Intel should concentrate on morphing laptops to tablets , full OS tablets , just take a look at what a humble Intel Atom powered nVidia ION GPU Windows 7 Ultimate tablet can do. Instead of trying to compete with Apple , they should have mass produced Windows 7 tablets , I speak a someone who has used 3 Windows 7 tablets , two of them dual screen for a year now .  After all when Apple created the iPAd they did not follow any one , it seems Android tabs are doomed to always be slightly behind , the hardware they run is wasted on Android when it could heartily run a full Windows 7 OS , should nVidia wish to support it. The freedom you get with a full OS tablet is unmatched .. so wake up NVIDIA and AMD and get to it ... before Apple corners the full OS tablet market too .. yay dual screen Mac Air Tablets ahoy....
