    When is the funeral?
    That was the part I remember the most during their "Release", was the "Funeral Parade".  The sheer arrogance of MSFT, they arrive to the market 3+ years late, without any new features, and then stage a funeral on how they are going to kill Apple.  Then they released a Lumia 1020 with 41 MP camera, when the tech clearly didn't support that level of technology.  No cut and paste, when every competitor already had it.

    How many times have they done this same dance?  Surface 1, Surface 2, Surface RT, Kin1 and Kin2, Zune, Windows phones - all cancelled without support, leaving their user base suck with an unsupported platform.  You would think that people would catch on eventually.
    They didn’t arrive to the market late. They had phones years before iPhone. iPhone wasn’t the first phone in the world even though most kids think so.

    Like an earlier poster said, what’s the point in the horsepower if it won’t be used?
    1) 4K+HDR is already being used on the Apple TV 4K right now.

    2) Specifically regarding gaming, it sounds like you and this "earlier poster" are conflating "won't be used," a contraction of will not with not being used right now, less than a month after launch. This 5th Apple TV is going to be around for a long time and if all you care about is gaming then stick with the 4th gen or go with a console designed around gaming.

    Personally, I love how much better everything looks on my Apple TV 4K over my 4th gen Apple TV.
    I edited out a bit that I should have left in.
    Originally I said why buy all this horse power when a crap $99 Amazon box can do 4k and HDR?

    why so many excuses for Apple?
    Of course more games are coming but Imagine if PS4 launched and a month later all you could play were ps3 games? Sony would have been charred by flaming fans. 

    Wii U got roasted to hell for offering around 20 games during launch month. Apple TV 4k will get one current gen game in 2017; Sky. ONE GAME.

    it'd make a lot more sense to put face id in the macbooks.  then they can get rid of the shiny touch id button that sticks out like a sore thumb, as well as that gimmicky touch bar.
    Of course it’s a gimmick because Apple invented it. /s
    The touchbar has a function, anything that adds function can’t be a gimmick. Do you plug in an external mouse to your MacBook to avoid the gimmicky trackpad?

    reminds me of the Nintendo haters, everything Nintendo creates is a “gimmick”.

    That list is downright depressing.

    %100 of those games were available last gen for the A8 professor. Nothing new.
    This means %0 of games are gonna show odd the power of this new device.

    Any games supporting native 4k HDR? Is the upcoming Sky at least supporting it? They never said it would or wouldn’t.

    Apple really should have made deals with developers to release native 4k HDR versions of their games.

    Sorry guys we’re not gonna see 4k upgrades on games anytime soon.....

    In other news water is wet and companies don’t wanna lose customers.

    Can’t believe idiots believe the anti Apple propaganda in the first place.
