none of the above, sick of military shooters.

If it actually meets the hype and obliterates every other current gen game and gives free sexual favors, like everyone says it will... i might consider it. But this game would need to be beyond belief for me to pickup yet another brown military shooter.

Dead Island

Rage

Dark Souls

Skyrim

Probably get them on 360 since they are multiplats.

[QUOTE="CwlHeddwyn"][QUOTE="nchan"]You need 10x the power of xbox360 for what? To increase game development cost even further? 10x the power will be little of use next gen. Games already look great this gen, they just need to be pushed a little bit. If the Wii U is capable of displaying great graphics at true 1080p resolution, I think 10x the power of xbox 360 is unnecessary. nchan

I thought no specs were realeased and no games for the system were shown? how do you know what the wii u is capable of?

"I am a parent, of a six year old son, i wont be letting my son play COD anytime soon. heck i haven't let him see me play it, IMO its not for kids.

You are a gamer, if you let your son play COD, that is of course down to you as his parent, as for the "other parents dont seem to have an issue" excuse, thats not valid IMO.You are a gamer, you know that crack, buthow many of his friends parents actually know what COD is like? its 18 rated for a reason. we have a friend whose 8 year old child plays COD, my sister in law allowed her son to play it at age 8 too, when i actually showed her and her husband what COD was like, they were horrified, he doesn't play it now.

the things that are in adult orientated games today are not for the eyes / ears or brains of children.

Look i am not calling you a bad parent, just trying to understand, ok. I am pretty sure you would not let him look at P*** sites on the net, so why is a graphical representation of someone getting their throat slit ok?"

-----------------------------------------

P**n is real so no I would not allow my child to see or hear it. On the other hand COD is fake...a game. My son understands that I'm sorry that you don't, now would you like to compare apples and oranges? My son gets A's and B's and is a model student who has NEVER been in trouble at school. So I do not need your approval. Can we get back on topic now?

Parents always overblow the issue... when i was a kid... it was obvious video games are fake... since i control them... and i couldnt control other people in real life (even young kids can make that distinction).

movies and tv are what parents should worry about... its alot harder for children to distinguish between acting/special effects on tv vs reality, imo. Most of the stupid things i did as a kid was because i saw it on tv, not because i saw it in a video game.

[QUOTE="Danm_999"]Considering top of the line PCs are already several more times powerful than the 360 or PS3, I don't doubt the next generation of consoles will be 10x more powerful if released in a few years. It's amazing the rate at which PC hardware leaps and bounds and year, and that hardware are what console manufacturers often base their systems off of.DragonfireXZ95

actually its usually the opposite, the rate of technological growth tends to decline over time.

Thats why video card manufacturers created SLI, to cope with a lull in graphics progression... they fall back on just having you shove more video cards in your system.

[QUOTE="quaappybla"]

Unless computer manufacturers start building computers similar to consoles in terms of ease of use, i think consoles will stay around.

C_Rule

yea... ive never had to install a specific set of video drivers, search the web for a dll file, or edit an ini file to get a console game working.

You just put the disc in and play...

They might be right. If new consoles come out a few years from now and they pack them with high end hardware... The hardware might be good enough to the point where gamers dont actually want improved hardware beyond that point... or at least i expect the gen to last well over 10 years... and the next step will probably be cloud gaming or something that wouldnt require new hardware.

[QUOTE="xhawk27"][QUOTE="rasengan2552"]You can get more variety out of tofu buffet than you can get with the 360's library.good_sk8er7

That's easy to answer if you look at their high profile exclusives lists... Halo 3, ODST, Reach.. Gears 1,2,3.. Forza 2,3,4..

Just sayin'

What about Halo Wars? Dance Central? Kinect Sports? Lost Odyssey? DOA 4? Fable 2? Crackdown?

Those are some pretty varied gametypes imo...

And there are a ton of different exclusive game types coming to kinect... but for some reason people dont consider kinect exclusives because they are too different, but blame 360 exclusives for all being the same? seems contradictory.

[QUOTE="YellowOneKinobi"]I'm just saying that, should this go to trial, or more likely arbitration, NOTHING is irrelevant (at least as far as the defense lawyers are concerned). Do you really think that a defense lawyer wouldn't ask why she followed him to this new restaurant? I'm not saying that he didn't change his attitude towards her, but the question would be raised.

It's good that she's going to speak to someone over the managers head, because it's important to have this documented. If she hasn't already, I'd advise her to keep a little notebook (at home) with times, dates and locations of when "improper" things are said to her.

As a side note, do I think the manager sounds like a wack-a-do? Of course. But then again I don't know anything besides what you have written here. As far as him saying this or that about living with you, etc, for all I know that could just be part of a personal discussion they had. There are some people that I have worked with for years and after a while, not all conversations in the break room are strictly business. I personally limit the amount of 'personal stuff' that I talk about regarding my own life, but I know plenty of people that are basically an 'open book' and talk about girlfriends, boyfriends, lazy husbands, etc. It's not impossible that his opinions about you are completely warranted (or at least part of a conversation in which he was aksed for his opinion of you). But once again I'll say all I know about this is a few lines written on an internet forum.

YellowOneKinobi

You actually sound like a middle management guy flexing your miniscule muscle, worried about the implications for yourself and trying to cover your ass.

Im not saying any of this is true, i just know if that was my scenario... thats the message i would type.

Care to take issue with anything I said in particular? Or just tossing bombs maybe?

Well glad we are both making (theoretically) wrong assumptions about one another(welll you are 100% wrong, dunno about me yet.)... that being said you seemed to be a perfect the diplomatic response to a sexual harassment case. Seems like familiar territory.
