• Would an Apple TV kill the console business?

• gjgjg 19/05/2012

  As a gamer i seriously doubt apple devices will ever offer anything slightly attractive to me compared to the usual 3.
  apple's platforms are more used to play games than game devices because they are primarily phones etc, not gaming devices. PC Vs Mac is a better gaming comparison than the portables because its a leveller playing field.
  Anyway, there's probably room for both apple casuals and gamers in the market. sony are the most specialised in terms of core gaming (and made the least effort in the casual direction) but are in a financial mess but thats because of their inefficiencies, not because they don't provide a popular product/service.
  
  IMO apple are welcome to give it a go and distract all the casuals away from the gaming market. maybe then the xbox might withdraw in its 'metrokinect' mission and invest in some better IPs and gaming hardware etc.
  
  Anyway, zynga are the biggest games company in the world, but only because it piggy backs on facebook. Iphones are the biggest gaming platform because its not a games device. take away the phone part and see how many people buy it for the games.
  
  apple are really unlikely to kill the games console business, after all there are more androids out there than iphones so they havent even killed that market. what chance do they have to get gaming right? they only just started doing it with the phones! Reply +2
