PC peripheral manafacturer Razer has unveiled Project Fiona, a dedicated gaming tablet PC featuring side-mounted handles with integrated controllers.
Unveiled at CES in Las Vegas, Project Fiona runs on Windows 8 and Intel's i7 Ivy Bridge processor, meaning gamepad-supporting PC games will run natively on the tablet with no need for ports. Developers will, however, be able to add Fiona-exclusive control options to their games.
As well as the handles - each of which contains an analogue stick and four face buttons - Project Fiona boasts force feedback, accelerometers, and a multi-touch screen.
Brad Graff, director of partner marketing for Intel's netbook and tablet group, said: "Project Fiona's combination of high performance Intel-based gaming hardware and innovative tablet design is specifically focused for PC gamers. It will unleash the PC gamer to play their existing and future high-end games in one of the most exciting new form factors - a tablet."
Razer intends to release Project Fiona in the fourth quarter of this year, and is aiming for a price point of under $1000 (£645). Dev units will be available soon.
