Next Gen consoles, xbox 360/sony/nintendo
Just caught a glimpse of Call of Duty 2 on the 360 in my local EB. Pretty impressive......the definition is what got it for me. Not sure though if was as great graphically as what I was expecting, maybe because my pc has a pretty good graphics card.......nevertheless, it caught my eye
Anyone thinking Father Christmas may get them one? Same problems though as years gone by..........get the 360, or wait for the next machine from Sony or Nintendo........sigh.....memories..........I can still remember how excited I was about the Super Nintendo when Streetfighter 2 was about to come out for it............. Anyone got opinions on the machines? |

I receive my 360 direct from MS (I'm a developer and did Tony Hawks American Wasteland & Gun for 360) next monday/tuesday with a nifty developer based package nice and cheap (well.. cheaper than retail).
personally I've used ps3 & X360 and they are much of a muchness for pretty much everything. Largely the same CPU with a slightly different arrangement, Largely the same GPU capabilities again with some slight differences. I'll be getting both. Nintendo are behind in power but always ahead in games... I may get a revolution if the games look good. |

I think i will stick with my psp and wait till next christmas to buy a ps3.... at least the playstations have never really died and with backwards compatibility there are thousands of games already released that are worth getting. I also heared that the ps3 and psp are going to work hand in hand and the psp will be a wireless controller with screen features!?!?!? anyone know if this is true? Anyone wanna buy a megadrive with mega-cd? |
Re: Next Gen consoles, xbox 360/sony/nintendo
Why would I want to spend $400 on something to plug into my TV, that I cant upgrade, will be out of date next year and the games cost $50+ each when I have a PC that will play all the games I want, runs on a big LCD, I can upgrade whenever I want? Sorry but I just dont get the fascination with games consoles these days. Sure when PCs were slow with horrible gfx but not now.

Hmmmm, so to get the full effect do you have to purchase the X360 = $400 plus another $1000 for a decent HDTV.....then its $60 a game...things are getting pricey at that stage! I'll make do with my astro wars and caveman and wait till the prices come down a bit. |
