I disagree with him. Now why do you agree with him? This I don't understand. What's the problem exactly? Strangely enough, I thought the PC gaming market was the one shrinking compared to the console gaming market. |
It's not just what he says but also whats happening in the tech world. His statement is entirely true about Intel and AMD. When they release those chips in 2009, PC gaming will have in power terms double the potential of PS3 and 360. Also in 2010 they are looking to release HD movies on kiosks in shops which you download to a flash or SD card(Or whatever the one Toshiba is working on.) Now most people have proven that they dont mind not having a disc with music(as downloads outsells shop cd's now). This will be the same for films. I also believe Toshiba is working on TV's where you put those cards strait in and watch the HD download without the need for external player. I certainly thinkthis is why MS hasnt botherd with a BLU RAY player and am certain that nex gen games with microsoft wont be on disc. To much is changing. Downloads are cheaper to produce and cheaper forthe consumer. And with not needing to have the internet at home makes this an easier shift than a new medium. I said all along I wouldnt get HDDVD or BLU RAY because there were changes close.
