This console sounds as exciting and appealing as windows 8.

If JRPGs does survive on consoles, handhelds being the most preferred platform for Japan to invest in…

Depends on if MS will care enough to waste money again next generation on buying some timed exclusives and a couple legit exclusives.

I don’t see them caring anymore. They can be successful without any success in Japan. Sadly.

Nothing.
My comment does point to the stupidity of this country’s sheeple and their inability to make an informed decision.

What does politics have to do with video games? Well besides the point that politicians believe video games cause shootings.

PS3 RARELY has mandatory installs but keep telling yourself that if it helps you feel better about those DVD’s you keep stacking on the shelf.

I dont think they are saying Crysis 1 graphics for next gen.
I think they are saying the leap in graphics from Halo 2 to Crysis 1 is what you can expect from the 360 to whatever the hell they end up calling the newest MS atrocity.

One can only hope.
Sadly America will likely make the xbox successful next gen even when the rest of the world says no thanks.

This is the same country that elected Obama…..twice.

I still think the two systems are not going to be that much difference. It all depends on the games.

SATA 2.0 Spinning hard drive. That’s ancient technology! I know SSDs are more expensive than standard HDDs but cmooooooooooonnnn! 50MB/s vs 500MB/s. I’d be happy to pay the premium. Give these things a smaller cache SSD at least. Intel has a technology for that. Commonly used files are automatically moved from the HDD to the SSD seamlessly in the background. Then have the OS on there for a quick and responsive system.

I’ve been using an SSD in my main computer for about a year now and I’m never going back!

Edit: Complaining on the assumption any of this is actually true.

I think the shooter craze will die down a bit next gen. I don’t have a problem with AC games though. They’re mostly good games. I just wish they’d rid of the horrible battle system and made the games more fluid. I’m an assassin for Christ sake. I want to be nimble!

I agree that it’s pretty anti-consumer, even on the PC side. The only reason I go along with it on Steam is that it offers (in my mind) enough pro-consumer services to compensate. The amount of pricing flexibility on Steam is unheard of on console digital marketplaces. Most of the time they can’t even compete with retail, when in fact they should (at least from my perspective) cost less than a retail game that comes with physical goods and is a transferable license.

But I thought XBL was pretty anti-consumer in the first place, and was an effective deterrent from buying a xbox 360, so I’m not exactly optimistic. I’m open for Microsoft to change direction and make an argument for me to buy their next piece of hardware, but I don’t see it happening.
