I see next-gen being a repeat of this gen. Except this time Sony and Microsoft will have aligned launches and there won't be a $599 console on the market. This tmie people will actually have a choice.


you are implying this gen people didn't have a choice? ridiculous, sorry. you *always* have a choice. and this gen most people decided to buy the wii and a lot (and more than expected) to buy an x360.


aye, I never had a gun held to my head when I went and bought my Wii or my 360 at the start of this generation I just had the thought of how cool the wii was going to be introducting motion control and how awesome it was going to be to complete the original Halo trilogy. The only reason the playstation 3 wasn't a choice for me was there was no draw to buy it at launch, you gotta have something like Halo3 coming to finish off a story to make people want your system, I predict Ms will definately be doing that for the Xbox720 launch with Halo 5 in the pipeline for it.

 

As for Sony learning what the market wants.... now I love um and I love some of the stuff they make, but my god when sony thinks they got a good thing they stick to it til the bitter bitter end, just have awful thoughts of the Ps4 launching with the Dualshock 4 and Ridge racer ... 12? I dunno what number it's at but yeah when Sony finds a winner they literally ride it into the ground.


well, it seems that one thing is for sure in this market: nothing is for sure. who would have thought this outcome at the beginning of this generation, when taking a look to last two gens? noone. next gen it all begins again. but what i like with this gen and what i have said several times: it's the *competition* that is important. i don't get it why people are p***ed when their favorite console is not first: do the games get worse? no, of course not. it's almost definitely the opposite: the studios developing exclusives put even more effort in their games.
