While well written, I think Squilliam had missed several important points and eventually got to the wrong conclusions. Here is a more detailed analysis of the lessons to be learned: ... |
- Remember developers! : Currently X360 and CELL architectures are alien to PC architecture and make things more complicated. Making console like original Xbox was would bring more developers as using the system would be very easy for anyone who has programmed anything(After all you always start with PC.).
Yes, MS should introduce some sort of waggle thingy, more capable wiimote copy or include some new controller technology like multiple touch touchpad or camera based controlling(Minority report like thing... :) ) for example.
I think also that restricting resolution to 720p would be a good decision. I know that there are ppl with 1080p TVs waiting for next gen to really be able to use 1080p resolution, but as you have seen that resolution comes with a price. Most games today run horrible and are locked to 30fps, which just isn't enough for intensive games. Actually restricting resolution does make graphics look better too as GPU processing power doesn't go for handling larger resolutions.
