EA MAKING A CONSOLE??????

[KBG29]

Mabye next gen will be the one console future. EA, THQ, Activision, Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, Samsung, Toshiba, Panasonic, Pioneer, and Apple will all come together on a standard much like DVD or Blu-ray. Every game would be made specifically for that hardware standard and you could play every game on every console. Then there would be a vastly larger battle for the consumers money, driving prices down and innovation through the roof. Best of all, most of the money made would be due to the sales of games. That means major focus on making the best games possible.

I hope that this is why EA is going to look at hardware. Next gen every console will be capable of spirits within graphics, and at that point what is the purpose of exclusives. Next gen a one console standard could finally give all devs the chance to shine. Just imagaine teams like Infinity Ward, critereon, or Rockstar that make killer games, and across multiple hardware designs, having the chance to finally focus on one development platform, and having more focus on the actuall game.

This is were gamers need to unite. Forget this fanboy crap and realise how much bigger and better games could be if we all united to a single standrad. We want gaming to be main stream, but I know close to 40M of us don't want a Wii like future. This single format standard would allow gaming to be mainstream, and bring both the casual Nintendo games, and the Epic, Cinimatic, Story Driven, Masterpeices from world class developers together on one stage. One format is truly the ultimate acheivment the gaming industry could ever acoplish.
