| Legend11 said: Malstrom's hatred of the HD consoles should now be pretty obvious to everyone. I mean he didn't even try to come up with a reasonable analysis this time. Instead he simply compares it to Vista which was made by a completely different team and has absolutely nothing to do with this technology. He also ignores the fact that Microsoft announced that development kits were already being sent out to developers. |
You do realize that sending out devlopment kits doesn't mean that the hardware will be released this gen, right? The fact is that if it is unable to be released at a price that the market will accept, that its not going to be bought and will probably cost MS a lot of money to release just to see it flounder. More likley those dev kits are to get games ready for the next gen console.
