Please, keep Blizzards mediocrity off my consoles. The ugly covers are only going to strain my eyes every time I go game shopping and I'd like to avoid that little nuisance.
Also, can the PC elititst in this thread calm down. Not everyone is as tech savvy and as patient as you guys. I spent $1000 on my PC setup just half a year ago and I can barely play Oblivion on it. I understand that I could have gotten a gaming PC for much cheaper, but that'd involve me reasearching the product, looking for the locations of said products and then either paying someone to build the PC for me or I'd have do it myself. I also don't like haveing a high end experience one year and then two years past and I'm back to a middling performance scale again.
PC gaming can also be such a burden. I keep trying to get into it, but if a game isn't crashing on me, then it's something wrong with the save file or mouse support is completely broken. That then involves me scrounging through a dozen forums trying to find an answer to my problem and even if I do find an answer, it's a headache trying to get the patches to work at all. Steam is also a no go, because like many people, I have limited downloads every month and I can't waste it on games that are about 3 to 5 gig in size.
Things like local multi-player are my jam and I can't do that with the vast majority of PC games and even if I could, my friends and family have no idea how to game on the PC.
PC gaming is great for some of you guys, but for the vasy majority, it's far more effort than it's worth.
Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
