Dude, I've a science degree. I know exactly how to argue and spot poor arguments. Using arbitrary rules is a piss-poor argument that doesn't stand up to scrutiny whatsoever. You have resorted to personal attacks instead of dealing with the content of my post. 

Now I ask again: 

"You said hardware requires an upgrade to be next gen. Now, why does improved power consumption not count? And why was the GC not a gen above the PS2, or the xbox a gen above the GC?"

So then the PS1 and xbox have no generations as they are not successors of anything? 

Your OP is filled with numerous holes as shown above. If it was true than first attempt consoles have no generation, and there is no reason why the 360 elite shouldn't be 8th gen as it shows an upgrade over the original model. 


Xbox 1 and PS1 was already explaing.  The first generation console was started in 1974.  Since then we have had 8 generations.  Xbox is the first generation microsoft console born in the 6th generation of games.  Self explanatory.

The GC and X360 power consuption question is also self explanatory. They are not a new iteration.  They are modifications on current hardware and im pretty sure you realize that.  Which makes me wonder why you are still argueing but ok.  Everybody has tried explaining this to you already and im pretty sure every question that you just asked, people has explained it to you like 20(exaggeration if you dont know that either) times already


"Xbox 1 and PS1 was already explaing. " Lolwut?

How did you determine the xbox was for the 6th gen?

Sure they are a new iteration. You said next-gen had to be an upgrade. Improved power consumption via a hardware alteration is an upgrade, is it not?
Why does modifications of current hardware not count? You said "upgrade" - they have technically upgraded the components.

*arguing. No "e"

Their reasoning so far has been contradictory and also goes against the term when it is used in other markets. I'm going to go with the general buisness term than what some people on a forum who have no buisness experience believe - just seems like common sense. 

Just read the links with the EA CEO in. Clearly you think I'm the only person on the planet who thinks the way I'm do, when in fact you guys are the minority.
