With myself, I grew up during the Crash of the early 1980s and witnessed what happened personally. I still have piles of magazines from the pre-crash era. I saw how bad quality software helped to kill the industry and cause a loss of interest in home consoles. With this, back in the day, I was an Atari fanboy, so there is a bit of that there. But what you wrote, was WAY oversimplified, so I called you on it. And I will say, what I see now is showing signs of things back like they were then. Sure, I see more polish, and greater production value. BUT still the same failing at fairly large degrees with a few on top doing winner take all. I also saw Microsoft ALMOST walk into a DRM fiasco, that would of ended up killing a feedback loop to the indusrty by blocking used game sales, and even rentals. By the way, it is ok to not agree with Bushnell. Heck I disagree with him on him thinking the XBOX One, which costs $100 more than the PS3, is going to be the top selling console based on his belief that Microsoft knows software. |
You're right, I did over simplify things. I forgot to blame ET. Lol!
Sorry couldn't help it. Please don't take offense I just had a good nice sleep and woke up at the right side of the bed and I am kind of hyper hehehe
