Hehe, I was thinking...Microsoft jumped in with the xbox and now the 360. Nintendo is now adopting apple-like interfaces and design. Sony steals everything from everyone, so everything applies to them.

Tell me what you think, not this new generation (360, ps3, or wii) but the next:

The Apple iGame

followed afterwards by the iGame Pro (jk)

I mean, common, apple has great software, os, online services, and design...all it needs is a place in our living rooms, and the second to last untapped branch of apple's genius will be realized.


I am prepared for all the sort of in your face "wow that's stupid" responses...go on! i'm emotionally prepared!

Apple needs to dominate the computer area, as far as sales, over PC's before it moves to other things. (iCar, iOven, iGame, iHome, ect.. :)) We all know Apple is the best, so it won't take that long.

I'd buy the iHome. lol, White/Black glossy walls with modern furniture and such. Get the iCar and have it match your iHome! It uses the newly designed just for cars Intel Quad Core (x 2) and uses air as your car moves to help cool the octo cores!

my god...i just thought about it...an iOven would be sexy...the car too

the apple logo on a black car...

(for the oven, they just need to take the fans out of a G5 and install a hatch door)

The guys over at apple's design area should be elected supreme dictators of the world. We could have wristpods! Chips attached to touchscreens in our arms and the headphones are our eardrums! Think of the possibilities! >_>

I read somewhere Apple doesn't want to get into the videogame buisness, they are sticking with professional tools. Apple is serious.

That's what they say, but no one really knows...for all we know, they can be developing media centers for our living room, like the 360 (sort of), that they won't release till tomorrow evening without prior notice...

god that would be awesome

QFT.

Unfortunately, it was behind the times and ahead of it's time at the same time (wow that was confusing...).

I highly doubt Apple would release a game console. Not at this point. Apple is known for having bad game support so why would they release a console before they get a better handle on games on their computers?

Hardcore gamers would never trust it and without them, it's pointless.
