Vestel, the company that just showed off their TV with a built-in BitTorrent client, will be selling an Android powered set-top box featuring a subscription game client.
The client will connect to an all-you-can-eat subscription service called GameTanium, provided by Exent. The games will run on Android smartphones and tablets as well as the set-top boxes.
It will even be possible to use another Android device as a game controller for the box.
"The point is to let consumers play wherever they want to be entertained," Exent CEO Zvi Levgoren told VentureBeat. "This is the next big domain for gaming entertainment."
He added, "We can take advantage of both the accelerometer and the touchscreen as controls for Android games," Levgoren said. "It is a very intuitive user experience that maintains the original game play and control."
