As a hardcore gamer of twenty years, I can tell you that the line has to be drawn somewhere. Gas prices are too high for consoles to cost so much, games to be pricier, and the same simple enjoyment to be lacking. No thank you. Everyone in this thread should be praising Nintendo for what they have done with this generation of gaming. Even if you hate them. |
See I disagree, if all your looking for is a GAME CONSOLE, then maybe, POSSIBLY, I could believe it. But SONY's consoles have the opposite effect your talking about. Sony consoles almost ALWAYS see more use than what they paid for, in fact almost no one dissagrees with the fact that you get your money's worth out of a PS3. It will be around for a LONG time, they'll continue to support it for a LONG time, and it comes with a High Definition movie player (which I've used at least 50 times). You don't even have to "wait for a chosen format" because the ability to watch the movies already came with your ps3. Rent them and enjoy them. I don't necesarrily feel like shelling out for the cost of a Wii knowing I'd ONLY use if for video games. I expect more out of my centerpiece for entertainment. Now the 360 on the other hand I'll understand. It's lifespan was already setout by Microsoft to be shorter than the ps3's, AND it features standard DVD playback. I don't find it very usefull as a centerpiece at all. But I can't see where your going with the Playstation 3.
