Assuming Apple released a game system, what do you think it would be? Would it be technologically capable? Maybe internet based (Streaming or downloading titles), or a good home theatre setup? I think it would lend from the iPhone and revolve completely around downloads, like an Apple TV for games. What do you speculate?

Apple already made a system in the past and it failed miserably.

I think they are now completely capable of making a successful gaming system. It would: 1. Totally outdo The BIg 3 in terms of controls. Natal would seem like child's play. 2. Come with it's own screen, or at least have a version that does. 3. Do more than than play games, more than any other system. 4. Work completely through downloads. 5. Be expensive.

With a controller with one button, as you know apple people anything more than one button and its' too complicated..has to be simple for simpletons you know. It would have zero first party, but they would have all developers sign exclusivity agreements... it would required to be programmed on a mac with osx...as you know iphone can't be programmed through windows(stupid) it would have look dumb as hell to most tech people but again simpletons would and woman would love it. People would buy it and never use it. It would cost $1000, and do less than the ps3 and 360.

Who the **** really wants another handheld or console in this market? It would just mean less games coming to your favorite console and more money being spent trying to buy all the ****ing things just to play the games made by one of your favorite **** companies.

I remember that keyboard-less laptop...that spoof commercial was so funny but at the same time so true. The sad thing is many people on that video comments actually thought it was real... I guess apple has a rep of making stupid stuff like that, and people have a rep of buying the overpriced junk.
