Was anybody else underwhelmed by the PS4 event?

[DraconianAC]

I'm sure anyone who was really hyped up for an announcement will eventually be brought down from their on delusions. I'm beginning to believe that many (if not most) gamers are a bunch of whining little kids who will never be pleased or satisfied. Hell I remember when I told myself I would never grow up and would always be a kid inside, but I'm pretty sure I have outgrown the selfish, self-centered, egotistical portion that went along with being an underdeveloped human being.

I'm not going to try to guess what Sony's intentions were, I'm just going to go along for the ride and judge with my purchasing power if or when I feel it is appropriate to do so. I have a lot of resentment towards Sony--do to my own reasons, but I've looked past it (this generation) because Sony provided a product that in the end satisfied enough of my personal tastes; hence, it warranted my purchase over its competitors. This does not mean that I will stick with them always; nor will I base my opinions right now. I will not judge any console worthy of my money until a year has gone by after its release so I have a better understanding on where the pros & faults lie.

Any criticism before one actually has the product in hand is just narrow minded views based on biases (of days past), personal taste, & speculation. I know we are all gathered here in this forum to discuss a many range of topics, but must many of you punish your child for ignorantly stating that he will mistreating a cow that you plan on buying in the future? It seems silly to me.

If you did not understand that last phrase, let me elaborate on the following anecdote:

A farmer is thinking of buying a cow, and he tells his son of his plans. His son--surprised & excited with the news--tells his father that he will diligently take care of it.by grooming it, feeding it, and walking it with a leash every day. The father is startled by the last comment & his face angers as he reaches for his hat and strikes the boy on the head hard enough to make him cry.
What's the moral of this story you might ask? I'll answer it in a form a question: Why do people get upset/work-up over things that have yet come to pass. (Specially when no one really knows what the future holds.)
