Something in the same style as the 360 or Ps3. With the same games and such. I'm sure I would... I'd probably sell my Ps3 to get it.

No, because it would be too expensive.

apple made a console before and no one bought it, so what do you think? the answer is no. but since today for some odd reason (ipod/iphone) apple is "popular", people might buy one just to say they have it and to show it off. will they be a big player int he industry. hell no. apple can't even make an ipod that doesn't explode. hell they even threaten people not to talk about it when it does blow up.

no. no real experience in the gaming market means they would have to adopt microsofts strategy of buying support from devs, but without microsofts wallets they don't have a chance. people would prefer sony or microsofts consoles if all apple had was 3rd party games.

Depends on if it has the games I want.

I would rather them try and get into the handheld race instead of the console race tbh.

depends on what they do with it. if they just make another PS3/360 or wii then no....it would be pointless. but if they bring something thats interesting and shakes up the market a bit then im all for it. note to apple though: a nice shiny white console is not a selling point..and we already have one of those. if i want to make it look like an apple product (why? i dont know but hypothetically speaking) then i will stick an apple badge on it and call it a day. and no...repacing the plastic with brushed white aluminium is not shaking up the market either.

It's all about the games, so if they were good I'd consider it. But imagine the price, you think PS3 was expensive? lololol

apple has no gaming cred. They would have to storm the industry like sony and throw money around like mad, buying off 3rd parties. At least microsoft had some 1st party experience in making games as well as relationships with game developers in the pc realm that are still paying off to this day. I'll consider any console after I look at its merits, but I don't see how apple could pull it off at this point

What a lost oppertunity:(. You could have made this a poll TC and showed Apple how much we didn't want them to make a console in numbers.

Oh hell no. It would probably be overpriced with underpowered hardware (like the wii but even worse), and the first party would be trash if it even existed.

I usually wait a year after a console launches to decided whether or not to purchase it. If the games are solid and it's not to expensive, I'd buy it.

Lets see, a console with hardware equal to last generation consoles pepped up with a fancy white design, a 1000$ price tag and you can use it to makes videos and look at pictures... no thank you

Hell no.My TV remote would probably have more power than it,yet it would still costs a $1000.

But it would be all "slim and shiny",so the Apple sheep would still rush out to buy it. :roll:

Agreed. Although I have openly attacked Microsoft for being greedy and evil, Apple s even worst. If Apple ever got as powerful or even took over Microsoft, we would into the a dark age of technology. "Send emails to your friends, only $1 a message!"

Only if it has a promising lineup. It'll probably be a home multimedia device more than game system because apple's not much into gaming.

No, if it become another overprice Wii wannabe, casual hardware, with lots of casual shovelware.

Yes, it it follows the same route as PS3 and 360, with very limited shovelware.

I'm sure Apple would have a console that oh-so-beautiful but oh-so-effing-expensive. Because that's just what they do. So the answer is no, I'm happy with a 360, thank you very much.
