Sigh....

I was really looking forward to next gen. I mean its about time.

If this was the same as other gens 5 years after launch comes the new wave.

Well this November will have been 5 years since the Xbox 360 launched.

Normally at this stage I would be purchasing the competitors machine to play through the exclusive back catalogue.

But this gen is all wrong. I have a 360 and cannot buy the cheap competition because its still really expensive.

Here in the UK 250 GBP (400 USD) gets you a PS3 and a game. Furthermore the PS3 exclusives this gen have been eroded.

I can list the games I want on my hands.

Resistance 1

Uncharted 2

God of War 3

Killzone 2

InFamous

Heavy Rain

Everything else of interest has appeared on the 360 as a muiltiplat.

I still think I will get a PS3 when the price drops sub 150 GBP but that may be years away.

Maybe its time for a new player to shake things up.
