yeah well it does make more sens from a marketing and advertising point of view... talking about things coming out next year might be interesting and exciting for fans, but it has close to no value as a selling argument... especially with casual, and hardcore are already aware of future line up.... so talking and showing stuff for a far future is just a pure waste of money...
honestly have you ever seen a commercial on TV or in a magazine about a product coming out in more than 6 month ???? you wonder why??? because the impact it does now might be huge but 6 month later it has faded away for most people... the investment is not worth the impact, it's just decorum (and you all know who is the king at that game :P )
