Fanboys seem to be multiplying lately, maybe it down to so much riding on this generation for Microsoft and Sony. Every fanboy want their console to win, but if one console wins the war outright it could be very bad for everyone.
The Wii is a runaway success, but it’s a different animal to both Sony and Microsoft’s consoles. It’s like comparing chalk and cheese, maybe this is why it does so well as the competition does not have anything like it, although I am sure both Sony and Microsoft are look at ways to get into this market.
So let’s concentrate on the PS3/Xbox fanboys. Both consoles have plus and minus points which are debated vigorously in forums the world over but if both did not exist then we all would be poorer.
For instance if Xbox live did not exist to you really think Sony would of updated the PS3 firmware to add ingame XMB? If the PSN was not free what would stop Microsoft slowly raising its gold price , would they have dropped the console price either?
Competition is good for the games industry or any industry in fact. Competition keeps people on their toes and forces they in keep pushing forward with development. It means we all win! So stop flaming and enjoy your console for what it is. Neither console is perfect, and they never will be but they both complement each other.
Does anyone really think we would be putting vista on our PC’s if it had any real completion? No Microsoft would have had to make a much better product and probably cheaper. If one console wins outright and the others pull out this is how the console industry could end up.

Yes, between this and Aces of Thunder, I've got a little PSVR backlog going that I need to get to soon. I've always wanted a good VR flight sim, now we have it.

I just tried it today at an event, and it does work like a charm. Very impressive implementation. Will post gameplay tomorrow.
Nintendo is aligning its "right to repair" policy with the Nintendo Switch 2 game console to reduce its environmental impact. First, in accordance with European Union (EU) legislation, the company will modify the console's specifications to allow consumers to easily replace the battery. In the future, Nintendo may also implement similar policies in Japan and the United States if consumer awareness of the right to repair increases.
I have been waiting to see if they change their gaming prices (they should drop it to 69.99$ at least) and now I’ll wait for this too.
Metroid prime 4, DK bananza, Kirby air riders and pretty much everything that isn't Mario kart was $69
Good news it shouldn't be complicated to simply replace a battery but there also needs to be an effort to sell these parts to. Batteries from places like Ali express are extremely dangerous which is what most people will use
Well spoken. I have always hated the monopoly that Microsoft has on computers and I would hate for the same thing to happen to video games.
not been around for a while, did not even know this article had been approved!
Nice to seem that some people agree at look at things a little more sensible than most on here !
