This has annoyed me for some time.
Xbox 360 has been out for a long time, PS3 and Wii for long enough.
They are NOT "Next Gen" any longer they are current generation systems.
PS2 Xbox (1) are LAST GENERATION. They have been replaced!! by this new generation of systems!!
I would be fine with Latest Generation or evenThe NewGeneration.
" This is the Next Generation of gaming consoles"
I'm sorry but that ended when the third one to join that group came out.
Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and the Wii are the CURRENT GENERATION.
It's marketing bs to make the current sound fresh.
Here is a concept....
We live in the now
what we have now is current
what comes next is the future.
This is what they want you to feel about this current generation.
That it is the future.
It's not.
The future is not yet defined.
Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii were Next Gen right up until they became standard which they now are.
What comes after next?
The answer is nothing .
The future will always be the future and you can never get past it! You can never get to the future because when you get to it, it becomes now and yet it's still there, the future always remains.
This current generation of gamming systems has the title Next Gen. That's all it is. A title.
~edit~
I would like to add that it's only truly "Next Generation" for Microsoft (who coined the term) since this is their second system.For Sony it's thethird and Nintendo its what, foruth? fifth? I forget.
