if apple tries to make a move to get into the gaming industry and compete for the hardcore market they will be crushed...


Doubt it. They'll already have an install base of over 300 million...


yeah but those 300 million devices were not bought to be played on, yes gaming on tablets and smartphones has grown a lot. but poeple dont buy iphones because of angry birds, they buy it because if iOS the apps(apps such as whats app and skype not games), the features and the connectivity to the interent and all that stuff, gaming is just an extra thing. i dont say the iphone will stop selling i mean what ever they announce to attract the core and hard core gamer will fail miserably at doing so


Yeah, but lots of iDevice owners are also console gamers...So they wouldn't need to buy any new consoles because their iDevice already does the job


but does it do the job really? just because the controller is there doesnt mean its a hardcore gaming machine... does it produce good graphics? not really yes ther good for mobiles but not gaming consoles. does it have any exclusives? no...... any third party games? not really.... so it has games like temple run and angry birds.... ok does it have any proper online network? no..... are the biggest sellers of the industry on it? CoD no, GTA no, battliefield no, assasins creed (not a stupid game or app but a full sized game) no...... so why would any self respecting gamer want to play games on this instead of a Ps3, 360, WiiU, 3ds, or vita?


Once Apple release a controller, the 3rd parties would come a knockin'. Besides, iOS has lots of exclusives...
