A) I agree.

B) However this applies for Sony and Microsoft too... If upheld it means licensing fees go bye bye... as does Loss leading platforms.

Which means we'll never see a PS3 again.  Well unless they wanna sell it for the 800-900 it cost at launch + shipping.

 

If this goes worldwide... or even most of europe.  Expect console generations to last... well generations.

Which would make my wallet very happy.

I personally am at the point where I don't think it is necessary to try and jump much further in terms of graphical power.

 

What is your take on point B? You think it is the worst thing that can happen or do you think some positives could in fact possibly come out of it?

I use my PS3 primarily to play PS2 games.

My favorite Wii games is a Wii/PS2 multiplat.

Until I moved I regularly hooked up my Atari to play.

I really wouldn't care much about it if it were the case.   Though the question would be... how would it effect console viability vs PC viability.

Since PC specs would race past console specs even more then they do now.   Would people migrate to PCs and their more advanced graphics, or would more and more games "stay behind" when it comes to graphics.

 

That and you'd wonder if an Atari situation would build up.  Since it would get cheaper and cheaper to get games more and more people would get into it.  People think the Wii has a lot of shovelware now...

Could be the case. I just care as long as the games I want keep getting made, doesn't matter what platform.

As long as something like this doesn't stop my Final Fantasy's and other JRPGs I really could care less. Though honestly I have no clue on what a decision like can or will do in that case, though judging by what is still made for the PC I probably shouldn't worry too much.
