The cost of a quad-core SoC isn't so high that it's worth only having one of them, and like you say, you can just connect via HDMI anyway - although that leaves you with a controller problem. Separating people from their phones - docking over by the TV and playing on the couch - is a big hassle, especially if you get a phone call mid-way.
IIRC the mobile RAGE is essentially an dumb on-rails shooter. The PC version is significantly more vast, complicated, and graphically impressive.
- sandGorgon 15y agothe fact that its a dumb shooter has nothing to do with its rendering ability. It's a dumb shooter because people have not learnt to buy $49 mobile games. A mobile phone already exposes a touch-screen interface/proximity sensor/accelerometer/gps/bluetooth/etc The interface is richer, but different - in the same a dualshock is different from a keyboard. You do not need to separate a user from a phone if they have a power cord trailing to their phone. But actually, you dont even need to do that. Your phone can remain docked and your joystick can have a mic to answer calls. I do understand that a mobile chipset may trail PC chipsets - but I'm comparing mobiles to consoles, which already trail and are still accepted.
