I have never seen a commercial for Apple TV (is it popular?), or anything Apple in the living room. I guess some people do, interesting. Maybe casual gaming on iPhone and iPad, but for serious/hardcore gamers, X360, PS3, Windows on PC are the big ones, no? X360 Kinect did really well for Microsoft in the living room, it was huge in fact I think! What does Apple have that will compete in the living room right now? Any rumors? How many games on Steam are available for Mac? Macs have never been knowing for gaming, but rather graphic editing. Agreed. I own 0, ZERO Apple products. 2nd_floor wrote on Jan 31, 2013, 11:25: I have read that consoles may be on the way out, they are not profitable. Not on the way out. Nintendo won't be going away any time soon. The others have been in the red for far too long though. 2nd_floor wrote on Jan 31, 2013, 11:25: Valve have enjoyed incredibly, their own very much closed system of Steam for years now... Indeed. It's the worst form of DRM around today.
