According to foreign media report today, according to informed sources, Apple is recruiting game developers require candidates with 3-4 years of video game development experience, must have at least had a high-quality games released. Insiders said that Apple plans further expansion in the market in portable game consoles.

Apple have recently hired a well-known game developers Gelamude Man (Graeme Devine), German is a well-known game "Halo Wars" in the main designer. While Apple is still unclear the specific intent of these jobs, but it appears Apple is being more and more emphasis on iPhone (mobile Internet), and iPod Touch games business.

Apple iPod Touch has always positioned as a gaming device. Apple CEO Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs) and even accept the "New York Times" interview, admitted: "We are not quite established the initial market positioning iPod Touch. This is a no phone features iPhone, or a Department of portable computers? However, consumers told us that they began to iPod Touch as a game console. so we had taken that positioning strategy. "
