Well, COMMON SENSE would dictate that using a piss poor attempt to stealth troll by providing links such as "the toolkit for thinking" would be classified as an ad hominem attack as you did not address the argument but instead provided a link which would basically state that I am somehow ignorantand and in need of learning. Except the links I posted address your lack of evidence, not you. Citation needed. With the current technological progress of PCs, especially in the graphics card department, there will be no choice but to have shorter lifespans as the consoles will be outdated presumably faster than there were this gen. You want refernce? Go look at Nvidia's GPU road map. The burden of proof is on you to provide evidence. Sony and M$ are already making profits whereas they were loosing money with the PS3/360 early on in the generation. Going by previous hardware releases (minus last gen) the typical lifespan is 5-6 years. Last gen was a rare occurance that will most likely not happen again. The genreral consensus out there (which you can look through the majoriy of sites) is that none of the consoles will reach 100 million and at best (being the PS4) will reach near 80 mill. Whose general consesus is that? The hype has clearly died out for the PS4 as it's substantially lowere than Wii weekly (2007) sales and has fallen to a level of only being 30K above the PS3 in weekly sales (2007) for the same initial launch period. The PS3 had a bad launch but overall sold well enough, to end the generation in a virtual tie with Xbox. As for the link pertaining to grandoise delusions, well, it was generally based off certain responses and opinions I've you've provided in other threads (Playstaion created the industry). Seriously, this is the second time you've called me delusional, and I don't see how the thread I posted earlier has any relevance in me requesting evidence from you.

I didn't never asked you to explaining your reasoning, only to back up your argument with evidence.
