how can you say putting in HD DVD is not a problem when it would have caused the system to be delayed by 1 year and increased the price by a minimum of $200.

How can you say that when 360 has completely depended on the price advantage and the 6 million it got from the head start over the PS3 the entire generation.

they wont' use HD DVD but they will use something like that, it is backwards compatible with DVD so i don't see the problem. More and more games will just be downloaded anyways. Gamers will upgrade because developers will move on to next gen hardware.

yes but how many will feel the need to do so right away.

like i stated just look at what the PS2 did.

both the xbox360 and the PS3 once they hit that $99.00 price tag what happen's would people upgrade to the new system's or would these system's be deemed enough

that I think is a big point.

when do you see the next generation system's being released?

2012

2013

so say if they do release a new system in any of  those two year's what will set the new system's apart that would make people jump right away fo upgrade?

software is the big one but here is a problem will there be such a gap in graphic's over these new system's that will be such a leap over these that would be overkill for say the first year these new system's get released, how about the 2nd year?

look how lonng it took for ALAN WAKE, KILLZONE 2..

5 year's

GT

I think Sony and Microsof has asked themselves that very same Q: and the result of that is not very pretty,

 

PS3 will never hit $100, only the arcade has any chance at hitting $100.  Even $150 is probably a stretch.  People never cared about graphics, look at the wii.  Once the exclusive games hit the next gen people upgraded, when Halo 4, Gears 4, Fable 4, Forza 4 hit the new xbox people will upgrade.

your sure about that what Time frame we going by 3 year's from now 5 year's from now?

remember the PS3 started out at $500.00 an $600.00 and just hit $299.00

what about 3 year's from now do you realy think in 3 year's that the ps3 or the xbox360 would not be still selling on the shelf if demand is still high?

or do you think in a mere three year's the demand will dry up for the PS3 and xbox360, since remember both natel and ARC bot hit this fall barring delay's, game's from both Playstation 3 and the xbox360 have both had delay's GT and ALAN WAKE what 5 year+ development time

just because a new system get's released does not mean that you kill the current system Esp. if it make's you money.

that I think is the big problem in trying to say this is like every other previous generation In my opinion it's not.

by making online such a strong component for these system's they made also a problem , it make's the consumer less likely to upgrad faster rather than later.

just look at PC's people upgrade PC's are mainly gamer's most people tend to keep their PC longer before they upgrade because in most cases it does what they need it todo.

the GAME CONSOLE'S are going more toward "ENTERTAINMENT PC's" than just strictly just a game console. there is more function's that these boxes do that will drive the consumer to keep then longer rather thun go out and upgrade. not saying everyone will do that but plenty will
