Splashtop 2 HD lands for free on Google Play Store: intense graphic gaming for your Android tablet

Splashtop 2 HD is now available on the Google Play Store for Android tablets. If you’re not familiar with Splashtop, it is a remote access client that allows users to access and control their home computers, completely through their device connected to the same WiFi network as the computer running the Splashtop client software. You can use it to view documents or videos, listen to music, or just about anything else you can do with your computer, without actually having to be in front of the machine.

The release of Splashtop 2 HD is huge for two reasons. First, it brings along with it support for playing graphically-intense 3D games, like Diablo III and Skyrim. You can also play your favorite Flash-based games as well, which is awesome if you’re into Farmville and those types of games — not my forte, but I’m willing to bet some of you are guilty. Don’t lie.

The second major plus here is that, in contrary to the steep prices that came along with previous versions of Splashtop, this one won’t cost you a single red cent. That’s right — it’s friggin’ free! How awesome is that, right?
