Title: ApeXtreme Video Game Console

Everything between the console and computer is a gap now closed right here! I just need to see more JPN developers making games for the PC with the JPN console feel. Controllers may suck to some of you but I think their main control is keyboard and mouse. Think of the gamepad controls as something not nothing. It even has 6 USB ports. Hopefully you can play some PC games multiplayer with 6 friends if not online. The only thing it doesn't say it can probably do is d/l games and use emulators.

Thanks for replying! Damn... I figured a lot of people would be interested in this simple $300 product that lets you play PC games, the pc games are already out there (more than 2000), d/ls every important patch for the game, d/ls only the most popular mods if not all mods, starts up like a console, does the installation for you while you go ahead and play, has a 40 gig hd, plays mp3, cd music, dvd (don't know about special dvd qualities), vcd, and like most pc games has online itself, and you won't have to pay monthly or yearly to play them online.
How are some of you guys not interested!? Another big thing that I found that I don't know if it will have or not is no upgrade of hardware. To me thats thats no biggie since paying $300 for this machine makes me thankful enough. Paying $100-$400 on a graphics cards just for graphics and maybe a few games..... eh I rather wait till they create another upgraded version of the Apex console that will probably also be cheap, making graphics cards a waist of money.
If there is anything else IMO that they should do is go in a direction where eventually they will create a console that has the best of both console games and pc games. This way you get both the PC and console audience. Then eventually have the system get its own exclusive games.

It looks interesting. I'm not too into PC updates and the like so how often would they have to re-release this console to keep up with the newest requirements of PC games?

Well I'm just going to take a guess of 5 years in between systems which is also the average console life. But I would not worry about buying an upgraded version of this system. Its better than buying something that is only used for graphics. But if I had to buy a graphics card I rather buy another console instead.
