Here's an interesting trend: the companion app. The idea is that your phone or tablet becomes an extension of your favourite game, either acting as a second screen or a way to continue playing when you're on the go.

Over at AppSpy, Peter has rounded up every companion app for every big console game released in 2014. That includes Grand Theft Auto, FIFA, Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, and more.

Now, before you go click that link and leave Pocket Gamer for some other, pinker website, I've got a question for you. Do you use these things? What companion apps have you used, and did you like the experience. Should we talk more about them here?

Leave us your thoughts in the comments below.
