If they have the trust of all these 3rd party companies, then yes, they will be a beast.

Dont' count MS out yet, they play dirty.

True, personally though I really like my ps3, I still gotta give the best console this gen to 360 just because after Tales, it's the rpg king this gen, as well as fps and online arcade.

No, casual are who decide who wins a console war sales wise so next gen it'll be either Nintendo or Sony again unless Microsoft gets major casual appeal.

I disagree completely. Haven't you watched E3 for the last 2 years? Microsoft is the company doing the casual push. As for your Sony is desperate theory, you do realize that Sony has outsold the 360 this year in each of the 3 major territories? Last month Sony outsold the 360 even with the 360 having a pricecut. The 360's lead has been wittled down to 5 million. If anything, Microsoft has to be the one that is desperate.

MS are the ones pushing the casual market, but they will fail if they go that way because they are nt known as well with the casual market.

Sony is going casual?!

I didn't get that memo. =/

I was kinda hoping that Nintendo would build up their profits and eventually become a software company and produce HD Zelda and Mario games for the Next Xbox and Playstation console.

Could you imagine how clearly you would see mario and luigi?

I don't even know how the next generation consoles will be...

That said, since you were referring to current generation, I'll talk about that.

I don't think Sony would go for casuals, competing with Nintendo for them. Sony has one of the two most powerful consoles this generation, I don't see why having one or two games that could be considered as for casual gamers we should think that Sony is going to restrict their games to casual gamers.

No way :lol:

There's really no way too tell.

But anything with 'Wii' in the title is bound too sell big next gen. Just like where most of Ps3's sales come from now.

He's not.

With a name like Metalgear-solid, hes bound to be a PS fanboy, and would love to eliminate the competition.
