[QUOTE="sirk1264"][QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"][QUOTE="sirk1264"][QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]Can we all take a step back at this point, and realise that the "HD era" truly is a joke? This has to be one of the worst generations of all time in terms of over-talking products prior to their release, surely? The PS3 was meant to be a super computer; i need comment no further than that. Peter Moore declares the age of the jaggy over, only to have microsoft's top game Halo 3 be criticised in reviews for having the odd jagged edge too many, and now games not even being in HD at all seems to slowly becoming the standard.

I really think the HD era is next generation when we have the xbox 720 and ps4. This generation is more like the ED era. Games are in higher resolutions than standard definition but they aren't quite HD yet. This doesn't go for all games but it seems like it goes for the majority.
Personally, i say screw HD. Bungie said it themselves; "last year we had to worry about accomodating about 20 or so varying TV set ups. Now it's more like fifty billion."
I honestly think this whole "HD gaming" nonsense is what's lead to so many games failing to impress graphically despite such lengthy development times, huge budgets and high resolutions. Developers are too busy trying to make everything look acceptable in HD.
Well hopefully next gen can accomodate for HD resolutions. The hardware should be strong enough. Also why the heck can't there be like 3GB's or 4GB's of ram on a console.
I don't' see any reason why a console can't have that much RAM. Maybe it's because of cost?
Maybe but i wonder how much more it would drive up the cost. Heck 2GB's of ram would have been more than enough. The current consoles only have 512MB of ram.
