You've still not defined what a hybrid system is and how the Switch fits it and the PS4/Vita doesn't. The 3DS is relevant because you need to apply your standards of 'what's included in the package'. You unable to handle someone poking holes in your logic? Your argument is that the system is defined purely on what is in the box with no additional purchases and the 3DS has no charger so it is a system that by your logic does not work. If you couldn't follow that simple ...

Okay but why? I understood the desire last gen to see live action versions of our favourite games but now those games often have visuals that in many ways looks better than what is created for the big screen.

I mean the service is also called Xbox on PC so calling it an Xbox exclusive is still kinda accurate.

Expressing excitement for anything not made by Sony usually gets you some hate on this siteeven if you enjoy playing all of the big threes games. I was wondering what it would be like though if N4G made it so we could see who agreed and disagreed because it would actually reveal who the fanboys are lol.

"because whatever comes in the box doesn't enable you to do what you are talking about"

Why should I care about this standard when you won't apply it to the 3DS? The 3DS will only work for a few hours without buying an additional accessory so it's entirely dependent on an additional purchase but you don't declare that a system that doesn't work do you? It shows that you're applying a double standard when it comes to the Switch and are unwil...

It will probably be rarer than 1080p was on the PS3 to give some perspective.

The scene in the reveal trailer showing the glacier suggests that they definitely learnt their lesson with the vehicle segments for Gears 5. The on-rails bike level in Gears 4 was kinda generic compared to the vehicle segments of previous games like the Kyrll segment in Gears 1 and Gears 2's Centaur, Brumak and Reaver segments. Something that breaks up the standard gameplay formula in the campaign but interesting enough that it doesn't feel cliche or boring.

"again, you are adding additional accessories that up the cost."

So? The dock is an accessory. You just have no choice on having it bundled in with the Switch. Why is that distinction worth making on the functionality of a system? If anything is it not better to have the option to opt out of owning the dock if the main point about the Switch is 'you can use it how you want'? I know you're trying very hard to lump the Switch into a new category but I...

"no, because then you need additional accessories to achieve what you are talking about. You can't take the PS4 with you and play off of it."

That's actually false. There was a PS4/Vita bundle so by your very definition if it's all boxed in together the PS4 is a hybrid system. This is what happens when we create new categories of systems purely to create a distinction without there actually being one. The reality is the hybrid term was used as marketin...

I can play my PS4 games on a tablet so it's a hybrid. I can unplug my PS4 from the TV and still play all my games so I guess it's a hybrid too.

"Some never take it out of the dock and leave it tethered to their TV."

Someone could plug their PSP into their TV and never take it out of the house but that doesn't turn it into a hybrid. Also the 3DS is a consoles. It's why we actually make the distinction by saying 'Handheld console' and 'Home console' so I never said it wasn't a console.

The systems functionality is not dependant on the tablet other than as an o...

The Switch is a portable system. The dock for the most part is not an essential part of the bundle and many would rather it be sold separately. If the dock had hardware that bumped up the power of the system then I'd definitely call it a hybrid but at the moment it's a handheld.

If we're completely honest Shaodw of Mordor plays like a LOTR fanfic. It's not bad but it's very much out of theme for the lore.

I do have one issue and obviously I have not read the bill (can't even find anywhere that has it) but how does he define "pay to win" mechanics? It's actually very important because his bill would effectively have games like Hearthstone and League of legends banned. Buying card packs is obviously P2W and so is buying heroes but they're both F2P games.

How does he legally define these terms seeing as he's now trying to pass a bill and can those defi...

Actually there are games where they can. Steam Marketplace says hi.

"Not fanboyism, it’s just stating basic logic & facts."

The only fact you stated was related to sales in the longrun. You gave no facts to show that the PS3 launch was not mishandled and that Sony failed in numerous areas. Issue number one was their price point of $600 (more in the UK) which they defended by saying "we want you to feel like you earnt the PS3". Sounds a bit similar to a certain "just buy a 360" comment made recently. Oh and ...

Except we literally had an article last week with 'many' disagreeing with that assertion: https://n4g.com/news/226394...

And in this case many is actually a lot considering we're denying reality
