Coming from a console Kinect Apple?


An unconfirmed report emerged in recent days, indicating that the CEO of Apple , Tim Cook , was spotted at the offices of Valve  in Washington . The CEO of one of the largest companies in the world, as a rule, do not visit personally, but other companies simply contact in a chat.

Many have speculated on why the visit of Cook to  Valve , a company that produces the most popular series of video games like Half-Life  and  Team Fortress . Valve also has a line of incredibly robust platform games for PC called Steam, which operates similarly to ' App Store of Apple .

The project, then, was quite disjointed when the company was trying to regain its image under the leadership of Michael Spindler . Apple  licensed the platform Pippin at Bandai  but the market was already dominated by the PlayStation and Sega . The price of the console Pippin  was too high to compete and Bandai ended up selling less than 50,000 units before the project aside.

Last year, the CEO of Valve , Gabe Newell , seemed concerned to approach Apple in trying to enter the television market and if there is someone who is good in the production and distribution of hardware, it's Apple . We do not know the exact details of why Tim Cook has met Valve recently, but based on what we heard, it is possible that Apple considers Valve the best partner to enter the world of video games.
