Quite scary, especially the last paragraph...

The last paragraph is a bit misleading as they wouldn't actually be allowed to do that (buy up lots of major gaming companies).
If GT or COD were the only real games, then nobody would have bought a Wii.
Things like this..
It's not just games like Angry Birds. Although the amount that has sold, it can't be ignored. They don't need to copy the PS3/360, just let people play App Store games on their big tv's and they'll sell millions and millions.

valid point.
Paper toss on a 50" plasma would be the stuff of dreams.......
.......well, someone's dreams anyway.
If Apple buy out sony though, I'll just walk into the sea, Reggie Perrin style
EDIT: "Most impresive mobul game I've ever seen!"
So he's not looked at the Sony Play then.

They dont no.
They have a far more powerful retail presence than Sony have, that's for sure, and their pandering fanbase will buy anything they put in the shops anyway. So even if no-one ever plays it, millions will still sell.
Which is fair enough, hell, it's not my money!

Mate, the gaming section in Metro is actually one of the best sources of gaming information anywhere, it got bought from the old C4 Teletext service GameCentral when old teletext died - it's been going about 20 years and the main editor used to write for Edge. I've got several coats, should you need one...?
I don't think Apple will buy those other companies, it just shows how powerfull Apple are and their business model is well suited to sell lots of games. Imagine a new sort of iPad that connects wirelessly to your TV, all your games are purchased online and accessed either via cloud or internal memory.
A service already out in America offers this kind of service, all the hardware except the controller is located by the servers, and the hardware can be upgraded continually - you just pay for a subscription.
The reason MS and Sony haven't released more info about their new consoles yet is because, apparently, they are deciding whether to do something similar. It will NOT JUST BE BUDGET GAMES BUT FULL PRICE AAA TITLES. If you are still on Metro todays gaming feature paints the picture quite nicely...
The basis of it is already there. Airplay transmits what's on your device to the tv.
The only obstacle so far is that AppleTV has very limited storage but that's easily changed or the game just has to be on your iOS device already.
There's a video knocking about where someone has Angry Birds running on the tv and it's controlled by their iPhone but I can't find it.

theres another vid of Real Racing 2 HD using the Ipad2 streaming to the TV via ATV and it's very very much like the new WiiU. Motion sensor in the pad to steer the car, screen on pad shows the track overview, lap times, split times etc and the tv screen is the actual "Game" if that makes sense. I'll try find the vid later...
