China's answer to the Sony's PS4 and Microsoft's Xbox One has been launched by Chinese gaming start-up, Fuze, called the Tomahawk F1, however, it looks practically identical to PS4 and Xbox One. Kotaku says, “it’s clear that the company have pretty much ripped off the design rather than creating their own unique take." However, as we have previously noted, copying the branding and design choices of well-established competitors is sadly commonplace in China. Also, some experts believe this was a missed opportunity for Fuze to create something original, and with its devise costing less than half of an Xbox One or PS4, it will only fuel arguments that its a "cheaper knockoff". China has as yet been unable to produce a domestic console that can pose a significant threat to the likes of Sony and Microsoft.
