QuoteTHQ boss Brian Farrell has said he expects Apple and Google to be involved in the next generation of consoles

mere speculation from someone not involved with apple and google at all

article has zero merit

If they actually do compete with the"big 3", then Ill be dumb struck

really?? google shouldn't do anything until they make there search engine perfect. There just trying to fill in all there "o"s with things because they are addicted to wanting everything.

It wouldn't surprise me since google wants to be everything, it's not like they dont have the money to compete with all of 'em

Although it would make more sense if they started with phones and tablets

wow nailed em gj

why would they waste time trying to make a functioning search engine perfect when they could work on other projects that are more profitable

it's not actually happening though

I don't think it's possible for more than three consoles in the next generation to be successful. Biggest damn thing Apple has on their iPhone are game ripoffs and Angry Birds...which is a rippoff of some flash games I've played in the past but yet it's somehow a major fucking success story where I see Angry birds t-shirts being sold at fucking K-Mart. Google isn't going to join in the console market. It would just result in pure failure. Their main focus right now should be their phones and Google+. No-one is going beat Google's search engine anytime soon and YouTube rapes all other video sites in popularity. They need to continue trying to improve sales of their phones and Google+ has the potential to be huge.

well in that case, i'll have called it way before it actually happened so when it does happen, i can say the exact same thing
