Gaming With Friends Will Be Easier in iOS 16 and macOS Ventura With Game Center SharePlay Integration

[sudo-sandwich]

Have no clue why Apple keep pushing with this silly game center.
Unless they really step up the game, it won't be engaging enough.

Needs a full rework. The old Game Center was almost nothing but a nag. I still don't know what it was meant to do, but it didn't seem to even work properly, always glitching out.

Does anyone have an idea? I don't know what to think of these tiny steps towards a Mac gaming platform (adding controller support, etc.) when – apart from games – two major things are missing and probably will never be added: 1. GPUs to compete with the top offerings from nVidia and AMD and 2. much more affordable hardware (comparable to a Windows PC/console)

Where the hell did I EVER say anything about an xbox or any of the other red herrings you mentioned?

Candy Crush and that other crap is not gaming. Please try again

Of course Candy Crush is gaming. Not for me but for millions of people it surely is.

I'm unclear how you're defining "gaming" - it seems your definition is a very personal and subjective one.

If only there were decent multiplayer games. Let’s hope this helps

GameCenter has always been an ugly gimmick that Apple would drop at any moment.
Looks better and more useful now at least.

Game Center has kind of been hidden for a while, I actually thought it was removed. Somehow it still survives.

Thought the same.

Can’t wait to share…wait that AAA is Windows…and that AAA…Candy Crush? Isn’t that on the macOS? Is that AAA enough?

If Apple ever wants to do gaming right; they’ll partner with Sony. Until that day, it’ll be what it is.

SharePlay is having quite a big role in iOS. Some may really find this useful. Also would like to see more games on Apple Arcade.

Rofl. Gaming with friends. That's rich. Nobody who's even remotely serious about gaming uses anything from Apple

I think that's a pretty arrogant statement. How about people who enjoy playing games? Are they not serious enough? Tons of people play games on mobile phones.

Or buy EA

SharePlay is a pretty cool feature in iOS, should be interesting to see how much people take advantage of it while gaming.

That’s a horrible idea lol

Not quite. It would grant access to several titles directly and would enable more games for Mac.

Yea, EA games…. Although if there is a crowd that would be willing and able to pay micro transactions out the ass for mediocre products it’s Apple fans….may be on to something here…
