Title: Apples new game console. The iPlay
Post by: Kesa on April 01, 2013, 12:08:58 PM
I suppose it had to happen at some point with the PS4 and Xbox720 coming soon.

Usually at this point i would be ranting about Apple thinking they were something they weren't or whatever, but meh, can't be bothered today. Too tired.

Looks pretty amazing I like the Angry Birds game it makes sense for Apple to compete with Microsoft and Sony in the videogames market too since they are beating them so badly in the mobile device market.  Hopefully not long before everyone has exclusively Apple devices in their homes.  I am writing this on my iMac while watching the video on my iPad and reading my emails on my iPhone.

Oh crap, you mean this isn't real? I guess I should have watched the entire video and not just the first 5 seconds : /

I just spent the last 3 days stuck in a dark and cold cave, like I said, i'm not in the mood for all this crap.

Ps when is someone going to write an Amiga.org app? It took an incredibly painful 10 minutes to write this post? Android is painful.
