Sony won't be first, but not for lack of trying. They were so cocky about the PS3 that it's unlikely that they started development on the successor console back when they should have, and while they have probably started by now, they're playing catch-up. They won't have a successor ready by the time the other two companies do.

That leaves Nintendo and Microsoft, who will stare each other down as long as they dare. But one of them will eventually have to blink first, and Microsoft's dependency on the upgrade cycle combined with Nintendo's continued dominance with the Wii will cause them to try and release first again.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
