Forums - Gaming Discussion - Update: Jade Raymond joins Google as Vice President | Rumor: Google's gaming console details leaked, possible controller design revealed via patent

My hands are cowering in fear...they're saying..."it hurts".

That is disturbing........



Pocky Lover Boy! 

It looks somewhat cheaply made. Though to be fair, it's a leaked prototype, so it will be different if it ever comes out. But why would Google want to enter the gaming market? Isn't it already overcrowded as it is?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I'll reserve judgement until their keynote.



The controller is already a fail. This is just going to be like any other android based console.

Without good software to support it, it will fall to the side and die.



Intel Core i7 8700K | 32 GB DDR 4 PC 3200 | ROG STRIX Z370-F Gaming | RTX 3090 FE| Crappy Monitor| HTC Vive Pro :3

Seems unlikely that a patent lawyer would "leak" internal IP. They probably know those rules. They probably just drew a generic controller.

IT companies patent all kinds of things. This patent could just be about how a generic controller could access a menu in Android.



Ewww go away Google

Google was reportedly looking to both build up 1st party studios and buy 1st party studios a year ago. Today's rumors also say they have possibly lined up some Sega exclusives. 

Microsoft did that when the original XBox came out. If this becomes true, I'll have to wonder why western platform holders go to Sega for exclusives when starting out?

Well... doesn’t sound worthwhile at this point... if they revive shining force though... I’m all in!
