On a budget and can’t afford to purchase a new console, but already have an iPad? No worries, we’ve got you covered. Check out the two suggestions we think will help you have the ultimate gaming machine, other than having good games on there!

Some games are perfect for touch, while others…really work better with a controller. Thankfully, there are a few solid MFI gamepads made for iPhone and iPad that work with a ton of games in the App Store. Have a look around for the best-reviewed ones before purchasing.

You would probably use a gaming headset at your PC, and a nice set of speakers on your TV. So why play games with the small speakers on the edge of your iPhone or iPad? Using a good pair of headphones not only makes your games sound better but can actually help you figure out where sounds are coming from!
