Are you stupid? or just an apple zombie? You could buy a laptop that blows the pants off that for about $500 to $700 dollars less.

thing is though heres the kicker, macbook pro's aint really gaming devices to begin with.

You'll find its mostly people in media industries that will opt for them especially the music industry macs are more a standard bit of kit in studios these days.

Thats common knowledge at this point, but how anyone would even consider bringing them up in the conversation for gaming is ridiculous.

All these laptops would smoke that for a fraction of the price only 2 of the 10 laptops cost more then that macbook.

Are those as thin as the Macbook? Do they have SSDs? Do they have a screen with a resolution above 1080p? No?

That's where the extra cost is coming from. I'm not talking about gaming (which clearly isn't the point of buying one).

Are you people stupid? Say what you want about the new Macbook Pro, but it isn't overpriced.

Find me a laptop with comparable specs that is less significantly than that (thinness and build quality included). Apple did some pretty cool stuff to cram everything in there.

I agree. The only games I'm even remotely hyped for this year are Halo 4 and Sly 4. And one of those doesn't even have a confirmed release date.

I'd rank this on a 2009/2007 level of bad. heck, 2013 hasn't even happened and it's a better year than this paltry one.

Slashless

I was under the impression 2007 and 2009 were among the best years of the gen.

I'd rank them :

2007 > 2010 > 2011 > 2009 > 2008 > 2006 > 2005

[QUOTE="super600"]

[QUOTE="soulitane"] Well actually, I'm pretty sure there are very big and expensive 4K TVs available, just not in the price range for most consumers :PPhazevariance

Yeah!Bit still it would be dumb for MS to support resolutions above 1080P unless the console is some powerful beast.

The tablet can scale everything to that resolution, and probably could run video at that resolution. 4K tv's may be more common in just a few years from now, so its not unreasonable for them to support that resolution.

They'll be on the market in maybe 3-4 years, but no where near common. Look at how long it took everyone to make the jump to HD.

The news Gears of War and God of War feel forced, like they just shoved them into the lineup to keep this gen going. I'd rather just have new consoles already.

They are going to announce a tablet tomorrow, they want to beat Google to the punch. The Nexus Tablet and Jelly Bean are supposedly going to be announced at the i/O conference on the 27th. I have no idea what the next Xbox has anything to do with tomorrow. Why would they announce two major things at the same time?

Unofficial with many elements that are possibly true. I'm not going to say it is fake because "omg they used the 720 name" but really a lot of those are possibly true. A 2010 power point showing off Smart Glass and detailing the specs of AMD's Kaveri APU before Microsoft or AMD officially revealed them?ShadowDeathX

How is it known for sure the powerpoint is from 2010?

Well what are the actual numbers? Just saying "half of LA Noire" doesn't mean that much. How much did LA Noire sell?

[QUOTE="thelastguy"][QUOTE="CycleOfViolence"]

Now thats one helluva way to clinch your first title in franchise history. 6-1.

Congrats to the Kings

CycleOfViolence

That was a painfully dull SCF, and probably one of the worst cup winning games of the decade. An elimination game in the Stanley Cup Finals was decided by a major penalty? The **** is up with that.

/disgruntledcanucksfan

Major penalty or not, the Devils looked flat the entire game. Still one of the more dominant playoff performances in the post lockout era. Still doesn't tops that 2007 Anaheim Ducks. That team was a force, top to bottom.

Atleast, as a Canucks fan, you can say you were beat by the champs. There is some solace in that :P.

We have been beaten by the champs in 4 of our last 5 playoff appearances :(
