Why the new Apple TV will kill your Xbox or Playstation

A new report gives us our best insight yet into the radically improved Apple TV expected to be launched next month, including the fact that it will ship with a motion-sensitive controller similar to the Nintendo Wiimote — but a hell of a lot sleeker. And that’s just to start.

In an exhaustive report for Techcrunch, Matthew Panzarino says Apple is about to “lay down its cards” when it comes to the future of television, and what Cupertino has planned is nothing less than a game changer.

The new device will be the first to move Apple TV beyond the “it’s just a hobby for us” category Cupertino has put it in since the set-box debuted in January 2007. The report confirms that the new Apple TV will boast a dual-core A8 processor maximized for performance. In correlation with a new TV App Store, this will allow the new Apple TV powerhouse to run apps graphically on par with last-gen consoles like the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

And this will kill PS4 and Xbox One why exactly?

Give me one single good reason. Or apologise for being stupid.

lol

Is there in the full article! (Is the title of the article).

Good one, where's Mac on this one. :P

lol Apple

MMMMMM apples

So much denial. Can't you see? Is like the Wii, but by Apple!

I don´t understand either.

In other words I will not be able to play Forza 6 , Halo 5 or Fallout 4 on it.....if my Xbox One could talk , it would say "I don't care "

And the Wii was eventually found to have sucked and Apple products have traditionally been a barren wasteland for games.

without the games.... without a graphics card.....

Oh.. so its just another smart tv... with apples store... *WHOA*.... -__-

Apple TV is not a game console with powerful internals. It's meant as a streaming device for iOS and OSX streaming. The revision will have more powerful internals than the current and probably run a lot of apps, but is not a gaming platform.

So why will it kill Sony and MS?

Here comes both @musicalmac and @mister-man

So they finally launched an Ouya competitor.

Sorry TC, I'm not into guys.

What a stupid article.

I would agree if Mac didn't tend to get stuff last or not at all

lolworms

This iOS, no Mac, though.

Good God no... lol.

So if you hook your Xbox One or PS4 up to the new tv Apple is manufacturing... it will kill your console?? sounds dangerous.

Booooooooo apple Boooooooooooo

TC, please may I have some of that substance you smoked before you posted this crap?

Yeah motion controls to play the latest version of Angry Birds yipee

Lol Apple TV is complete shit.

Oh, man, Apple...

Shitty clickbait article.

this^

also I have 2 apple Tvs, they suck. Only had them for mirroring. Not needed anymore since most of my Samsung TVs do it as well as my xbox one
