Dear me when having surround sound with great bass is what is needed for a console then everything up until the X360/ps3 were not consoles since titles before that had dolby in cutscenes but almost never in game, also a big screen allows multiple people to play it so that makes a console a real console? but... that would suggest that consoles are focusing on couch co-op now? I mean... the feature which was removed from Halo 5 completely because as people suggested "just isn't used by people anymore" so I guess that means the range of consoles which would fall into the category of having surround sound and also supporting couch multiplayer really was just 2 of the systems from the 7th generation lol, that is some fantastic logic. Also when people suggest that handhelds are not considered consoles because of inferior power, keep in mind that the GBC had a processor almost double that of the Super Nintendo in terms of sheer Mhz speed in it... not to mention the fact that if you only consider a system to be considered worthy of gaming console when it has the most power... no actual console has ever rivaled the year equivilant PC in terms of sheer horsepower meaning that no console... has ever been worthy of the title "Console".
As for the OP I'm in agreement with you, playing some titles on the Vita's glorious OLED screen in bed with headphones on is one of the most immersive ways of playing games, that screen just makes gaming great when it comes to horror like Resident Evil revelations being able to fully get down to a true black screen for segments makes a gaming experience far superior to what most gamers will experience playing on LCD or LED TVs in their living rooms. |
If you like that, try Lone Survivor on Vita at night with the lights off and headphones on
