Fire TV is also a gaming console
So far so good. But here’s the really cool part: Fire TV is also a gaming console which supports from developers like EA, Ubisoft and Disney. Within the next month games like Minecraft, NBA 2k14 and The Walking Dead will be available. Controllers will be available for $39.99 each.
The be able to run these games as well as offering a fluid TV streaming experience, Fire TV has some decent specs on board:

2 GB of Ram Quad-Core Processor Dedicated Graphics Cards HDMI Optical-Out WiFi Ethernet Bluetooth
The set-top box is able to deliver video and audio in 1080p with Dolby Digital Plus Surround Sound. Another cool Fire TV feature is a voice-based search. Simply speak a title, actor or genre into the remote and the set-top box will perform a search query on fitting content available. Although this might seem rather gimmicky for a streaming device, tools like Google Now or the voice-controlled XBOX One Kinect show that we are moving towards a more and more voice-controlled world.
