Because every game should be incredibly complex, requiring a lot of time and effort to learn and perfect the control scheme? I see nothing wrong with having linear games, or pick-up up and play games.

Um and some of the best looking games are on consoles. How many visual awards did pc win last year? Um the answer is none it all went to UC2 on every website why? Because it looked better then pretty much anything that came out for pc last year. No its not just about powerful hardware its about what the devs do with that hardware.

A black skybox and horrible character models. Sorry but nice texture work alone doesnt cut it.

[QUOTE="comeonthehoops"]Yeah, I have a SDTV. I don't really see much point in upgrading, I could use the money for much better things.Pixel-Pirate

So let me get this straight? Your posting in a gaming forum so you obviously like games . Why in the hell is a HDTV not one of your higher priorites. If you have kids to feed are something sure I understand but as far as gaming goes I dont think I could go back to an SDTV.

Because gaming is about, you know....game play? Not how awesome your graphics are. You act like games no longer work on SDTV's.

[QUOTE="Revan_911"][QUOTE="TheSterls"] Irrelevant .The best looking games are still on PC. I'm sure the Wii wins in some genres, that aren't present on other consoles.TheSterls

Um I own a $1500 dollar pc and no there is no action adventure title that looks better then God of War 3 on my pc. So yes GOW3 looks better then any action adventure title on my pc or anyones pc for that matter. At the same time Crysis is better looking then any FPS on my console but because of that does that mean i compare Crysis to every console game even if its a complete apples to oranges comparison?

Are you serious? Its just as relevant as any other genre and it happens to be my favorite genre. If its not FPS are RTS hermits act like it doesnt exist.

DMC, Ninja Gaiden and God of War have all sold millions and are all very high rated franchizes.

I dont think I could ever go back. I have to have a fast internet connection and love my gorgeous HDTV. Plenty of others do not care of what they have.

Do you use SDTV and 56k modems?
