Forums - Gaming - Will The Next-Gen Start When Microsoft Says It Does?

 

When will Next-Gen start?

It already did with the Wii U 45 37.82%
 
Sony's will start it with the PS4 50 42.02%
 
I'll wait for Microsoft to say so 19 15.97%
 
PC is where real Next-Gen is at 5 4.20%
 
Total:119

M$ is so late to the party. Nintendo already said that next gen started a few months ago!

They said that too? I love how they talked about the hardware and the press release, people are very intrested in those things.


Really, cause most people probably don't understand hardware specs. Only core gamers are interested in the specs.

I don't the point of all this is. The 8th generation of video games is already here...3DS, Vita, and WII U.

PS fans don't believe in head starts......except when PS2 launched before Gamecube and Xbox.

Only THEN is it totally acceptable lol



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I believe in them.  Hell look at the difference.  PS launches ahead of Xbox and Gamecube=Sony wins gen by large margin

Xbox launches ahead of PS and Wii=MS 3rd place finish

Thats a highly skin deep way of looking at it, considering PS1 paved the way, and the marketshare reversal of Xbox and PS, with only NA and UK working in their favor.

PS1 showed you didn't need to pave the way.  They entered the market against 2 established titans with everyone questioning whether they could do gaming and had the highest selling game system ever.  This is why I give no credence to the "growing pains" of a first console.  A first console can sell 100m if done right.

Only when Valve says so!



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

It started a while ago in case anybody didn't know that already.
