Curses you are correct
I still see consoles evolving into gaming tablets. I mean it starts with a second screen right like the game pad or the PS4 and vita remote play plus xbox smart glass. Lol
Actually there will be more pc gamers. The hardware for pc gaming rigs are at the lowest. Extremely affordable games along with Valve allowing gamers to select the games worthy of being on Steam via steam green light. Endless customization plus it offers console gaming staples like platformers giana sister twisted dreams, arcade racing games like track mania, deathrally along with mech action games like hawken and striking suite zero and survival horror like amnesia dark descent, l...
The problem with consoles is that these systems are becoming too PC like from a software point of view. First Sony is abandoning the uniqueness of console architecture by replacing it with the PC gaming architecture (x86). We have to create accounts for consoles now; however, that account ceases to exist at the end of the generation like our psn account or most likely the xbox live account no longer valid for the next xbox or PS4 which leads to our digital library gone (games and movies). ...
I am glad someone remembers the past of this generation
I am waiting but I do see EA and Activision at Microsoft conference for this E3 event. Now CD project I doubt it due to it owns GOG service. Meaning Microsoft and CD project have to negotiate in allowing this developer to run its network along with its GOG service. Also a deal that there is no DRM for the games something that is unlikely for Microsoft to deal with. Another there is the possibility of a monthly subscription and it's imminent that kinect will be cente...
I agree with you because you are giving a realistic outlook towards the next xbox. Thing is I am not a fan of cable or satellite subscriptions. If Microsoft can bring a service similar to Netflix except for games then that could be interesting.
I hope you are right and it does happen so the game industry sees that customers are not willing to put up with any bs.
it has but it only works if you are logged in to your STEAM account. I just don't log out from my steam account mainly due to is annoying as hell to log in and log out from my account B-)
Nintendo used to be cool now this company is clueless and stuck in the past along with trying to copy Microsoft and Sony and failing at it.
I respect your opinion and decision in choosing Nintendo products. But Nintendo has messed up this generation and instead of being innovative or creative it decided to be like Sony by offering the wii u to have multiple system updates have slow servers and a system that is difficult to develop for and a weak online gaming service (PS3 offered this during launch). Like Microsoft greediness in the sense concentrating on multimedia like Amazon video, Netflix, etc. Selling the system i...
Please say no more is making me cry due to that's Nintendo I grew up with. Now Nintendo is trying to hard to be like Microsoft and Sony.
In my opinion the most important franchises for this generation that broke the status quo and improve or were innovative franchises are:
Uncharted
Portal
Infamous
The Walking Dead
Bioshock
I agree with you except the good list. How is Diablo a franchise for this generation. COD a stale same old games, uncharted or portal are two better franchises than Diablo or call of duty. Well is the author's opinion and I respect that but is a decent list
Now that sounds like heaven for game developers which is a good thing. I do want to add that this product was crowd funded by gamers and promoted by gamers for gamers.
True but the Ouya is coming with its own gaming library not the game library found on Google play store.
Agreed, the Ouya is being targeted at gamers that are into open source and indie game developers.
Name and innovative new ip that the wii u offers right now. The only one I can think of for this summer is the wonderful 101. The rest are being there done that. Zombie u was left4dead in England. Bioshock franchise is really good. Games like portal franchise or even sleeping dogs show innovation or moving a genre forward.
The purpose was that maybe the new to gaming would of wanted a far deeper complex experience. Like the transition from super Nintendo to Play Station. The snes offered a simple fun kiddy experience; whereas, the psone offered a more mature experience like legacy of kain blood omen or resident evil. That's what Nintendo was trying to do.
Umm well let's see if is more exploration and less action
