The ApeXtreme PC Game Console

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: SKYHN

Yet another console is unveiled at CES, this time completely out of the blue.

From Gamespot:

Nominated for this year's CES Innovation Award, the ApeXtreme feels like a scaled-back version of the Sony PSX, minus the personal video recording. The system will run at 1.4GHz and use a variety of VIA hardware, including the CN400 processor, the DirectX 9.0c-compatible S3 DeltaChrome graphics chipset, and a Vinyl Audio Dolby 5.1 sound card. It will feature a standard 40GB hard drive, six USB ports, Ethernet, and 56.6kps modem. The console will also support a variety of media inputs and formats, including DVI, SPDIF, RCA, S-video, and HDTV-compatible component video. It will also support DVD+/-R/RW and progressive scan DVD playback.

Hardly worth any kind of award, IMO. The specs of this thing is below my current PC, which is 2 YEARS OLD. And then you throw in VIA and an S3 video chipset, and well thats just a mess.

Also, here is a video discussing it from some show(TV?), which you can download here. (14mb)

The fact that they mention alienware made me laugh
