:cry: Stop being mean hermitite :P besides i can carry my console in my bag jelly?:cool:
i game on a laptop(heaven forbid...but it works quite well)...and i can carry it in a bag...
All fanboys: really whiny for no apparent reason.
everyone else: isn't represented enough of the forums, I guess we're all just too busy enojying games.
wii: the console is dead now tho i dont mind since wiiu is coming soon.
vita: lack of proper support, i want more psn games, it will be easy for tghem to port most ps3 psn game to vita.
3ds: im jelly that eu and japan get 3ds xl first and i hate the fact that japan gets super mario nros 2 in july while i have to wait a month :cry:
360: i dont like paying for online and i hate that some games are region locked.
ps3: many years of drought of game and fewer psn games than its competition and i hate that dlc is region locked(2006,2007 and 2012 are the worst years to have a ps3)
pc: its just too good nothing can compete with counter strike source
wiiu: MY BODY IS READY
Cows/Lems/Sheep: Crystal balls all around
Herms: Nonsensical belly-aching over console vs pc graphics, when both can look great.
Manticore(me): Not enough time to play everything I'd like to.
Hermits - Their snobbery.
Sheep - Their cuteness.
Cows - Their awesomeness.
Lemmings - Everything about them.
:twisted:
sheep:They hype the wii u so much even tho it will obviously be the least powerful next gen.

I see that as a positive since it keeps the price of the system as well as development budgets down, which in turn leads to a much healthier industry, both in terms of variety/creativity as well as financially. Just look at Nintendo/Valve(Steam), the two companies that adopted this model in gen 7. I know many disagree about Wii software wise, but at least DS is widely considered by enthusiasts as a software beast up there with SNES/PS2 and Steam is self explanatory.
NES, SNES, PS1, PS2 were all budget console (the systems that are widely considered to be the best of their gen). This gen was the first to go a different route with its two high end consoles. PS3 cost Sony $800 altogether, they sold it at a $200 loss. In other words it was too powerful for its time.

Sony had to get Blu Ray into people's homes. Same as how they used PS2 to sell DVDs. That's a big part of why PS3 was so dea. Xbox 360 came out at 300/400 price point, for the low and high end models, which is still pretty reasonable imo.Cows: Most biased faction of them all, the fanboys of fanboys.
Hermits: Elitists. So what if we wiped 5 times in WoW or made huge mistakes in DotA? Shut the **** up and calm the **** down.
Lemmings:I can't think of anything that stands out from other factions. Possibly a little too dudebro. It's the Fifa/CoD-and maybe throw in a GTA/RDR and some random sim racer for fun-box.
Sheep: I can't think of anything that stands out from other factions. It is abit annoying how neutral/calm they appear in conversations. Debates are supposed to get nasty sometimes, throw off the gloves, etc.

It was alot, but not as much as Sony.
$300-$350 is perfect, breaking even that is. It was a weird transition last gen, 480p was too small and 720p (native) was too much. I would be pleased if the norm was 720p native res on the next gen consoles, 1080p 30 fps for something like the samaritan demo requires a beasty console... especially if they go for their own version of the GamePad, Nintendo said it is very difficult to balance graphics and performance when it comes to streaming.
So next gen will either be disappointing power wise for forum users, or it will be a repeat of 7th gen i.e. go south financially.

Let them burn their billions in cash trying to appease us unreasonable power hungry dickwads, who still refuse to pay more then 300/400 for a console :twisted:Seriously, I want Nintendo to stay alive cos I love their franchises but Sony and MS can go to town on each other and crash their businesses to the ground trying to push the power. I don't own stock, I'm a gamer not a businessman, so I really don't give a dam if they lose money on every machine and every game. Give me epic games, possibly from Epic Games, and I'm happy:cool:
