Lenovo To Launch Chinese Gaming Platform Called Ebox

Posted by Soulskill on from the wide-open-market dept.

siliconbits writes "Chinese manufacturer Lenovo will build a video gaming console for the Chinese market and has already spun off a company called Eedoo Technology, including a team of 40 engineers, with the task of developing the platform. It will be called the Ebox, and will be specifically designed to recognize shapes and movement without the need for a dedicated game controller, not unlike Microsoft's Kinect."

    They plan on developing it in *Three* months... With 40 engineers.
    It's going to cost more than a Nintento Wii, but less than an XBOX360
    It costs a Chinese person that makes an average wage 3 months of pay.

    I predict colossal failure.
