KFConsole

[Spendle]

So, rather bizarrely, KFC have joined forces with Cooler Master to release a KFC branded console which even keeps your chicken warm whilst you play.

I'm still expecting this to be one giant wind-up but everything so far is pointing to this being real. I'll be watching this with interest as more details are released.

It will be a wierd obscure note in gaming history but that's it.

[Blades]

My god that's brilliant.

[NeoVamp]

Ridiculous and amazing at the same time.

240 fps?! Hahaha, that's high end e-sports pc territory. Meanwhile the ps5 and xbox will probably hover around 30 for most games just like last gen unless set for 1080p.

If this is actually real, what the heck is under the hood? 3080 ti with a Threadripper or Intel I-9 chip? Sheesh. Beastly.

Sounds like a firehazard having greasy food next to something electronic like this and I know someone will burn their house down putting something stupid in the heat tray.

[NeoVamp]

Well I pre-ordered two of them, gonna run them in SLI and play Skyrim II on it on.

[JCU]

Great. Now it will be easier to get the runs.

This is hilarious. Easily the most creative marketing campaign I've seen all year. I don't think it's really a console though, more like a mini PC with an unusual case. Also that tray better be sealed or else crumbs and chicken grease will be everywhere.

I love how you're all worked up about it, Leynos.
"Pfft, it'll be a footnote in history. I'll bet someone burns down their house with it." Hahaha

I think its clever and pretty dang creative, and it's obviously good marketing for the restaurant. I mean, people are talking about it. I realize it's not your beloved Sony that made it, but come on, bro, it's a fun idea. At ease, soldier. Hahaha

Not worked up. Just I have seen first hand the dumb things people do with their systems/PCs and people can't be trusted. Footnote thing is correct. We have had Jaguars turned into dental equipment. Game boy add ons for sewing machines. Just weird stuff and this will be added to it. You mistake my tone as I really don't have any intended tone. About as relaxed as can be esp when drugged on anxiety pills. Far too half asleep most the time to be "worked up". I also don't love Sony. Just SEGA.

[JCU]

The marketing and hype is what matters. How and if the product will perform as intended is really moot. Remember when Coca Cola had rolled up money in its cans? It was a bat shit crazy idea but it made people talk and spend.

This could be useful if it's compatible with chicken that isn't from KFC.

[Blades]

I'm afraid good chicken is an exclusive the KFC console will miss out on.

[NeoVamp]

I'm not a chicken bone kinda guy, I wonder if I'd break the user agreement if I were to put one or two sausage rolls in there.
