This was announced back in June but I think everyone rightfully at the time wrote it off as a joke. Well turns out it's not because KFC has officially showcased their KFConsole - a VR-ready, Intel-powered PC capable of 4K, Raytracing, gameplay up to 240fps, and a Chicken Chamber that will keep you chicken warm as you game.
Just when you think 2020 had nothing crazy left to surprise us with...
Please tell me it's still a joke. What? It's a food warmer, yet it's going to play games?! Someone's gone way out of the box and beyond the stratosphere into a black hole with this "creation".
I'll give them credit that using the heat of the system to keep food warm is pretty clever and a good way to tie it into the KFC brand. I'm just imagining if this was announced at E3; it'd probably go down as the craziest announcement in history for that event. XD
I honestly can't wait to see the wikipedia thread of "2020" some day in the future and be reminded of the fact that this indeed happened and exists.
Does anyone think KFC will actually mass produce this, or just keep it as a small novelty thing that makes most of its sales from people who just want to collect something as quirky and rare as this thing?
I'm thinking more of the latter, I mean if this really truly really happens, then perhaps a number will be made to test the waters and depending on the result which'll probably be not enough demand to warrant more. Which'll be a loss for them but what they hey, they tried.
Or who knows, maybe there will be a market for it.
I wanna see what influencers they'll get to use their product to promote it. I wanna see that damn thing in action
Well, I can't see there being a mass market for it: I mean, who actually wants to warm their chicken while they're playing :-/ ?
There probably is a small novelty market for this kind of thing, but it's probably just going to become a weird collector's item.
The neckbeards cried out, for their tendies were too cold.
And lo, KFC said "Let there be KFConsole".
