that makes too much sense.  you can't expect such things from someone with such strong 'opinions'.

Going to the Lost City of Ubar gave me the most chills since going back to Shadow Moses in MGS4. The only killer was the terribad QTE final boss fight. Don't get me wrong, Uncharted 3 was still a phenomenal game, and one of the major highlights definitely was the Lost City of Ubar at the end.  

Let's not forget the many other amazing places! One in particular is a segment including sympathy :')

^Definitely was an awesome moment with Drake in the desert. I had watched a lot of pre-game coverage for UC3 and I was waiting for that desert level for the whole game. Didn't disappoint.

Your avatar just reminded me of a great scene in The Last of Us. Dem giraffes by the hospital...in the nightmare of TLOU's world, seeing those giraffes was just unreal, made killing all those clickers and bloaters feel worth it.

I expect the Xbone to sell half the amount the 360 sold in Europe, less than half of 360 sales in Japan and the rest of the world. I expect it to sell 30% less than the PS4 in USA.

When a thread about the potential success of the next Gen Xbox turns into a bunch of guys talking for a huge bunch of posts about their favorite PlayStation 3 exclusives, and the graphical prowess of each - you start to get a real quick indication of just how far removed from reality most of these internet communities are.

Xbox One will do fine - and no amount of internet echo chamber noise will actually escape into the real world - as it seems most people - who, lets face it - were never getting an Xbox One anyway - even if it had exclusive Crash Bandicoot and A Dualshock 5 in the box for $100 less than Ps4 - seem unable to contemplate beyond their own posteriors.

Yes, and your points don't contradict mine at all CGI.

Topics can spur discussion towards other topics AND people can be so locked into their insular, group supported opinions that they can't see there's a much wider perspective of opinion outside their group.

If anything - the fact of the matter - that a bunch of PS guys got caught up in a discussion of current Gen PS exclusives, when attempting to engage in a discussion about either platforms' strengths and wider appeal in the next Gen - seems to support your observation (that conversations can drift from one topic to another) AND my observation (that some "group" opinions are so insular and disconnected from the wider cross-group opinion, that they can end up having an internal discussion when trying to engage with larger/other groups). And both our observations could easily be pointed at no particular party beyond "all of us video game forum posting types" - regardless of platform affections or affiliations.

Because a forum without discussion is a forum without posts, thanks for flying logic airlines, hope you fly with us again soon.

from a perspective of who has the better games line up, in my opinion, the X1 has a far superior lineup. If microsoft drops kinect compulsary thing and releases a cheaper SKU - Sony will be shitting their pants

really? i thought the general concensus was that no one wanted the kinect! Guess, i need to follow the xbox one more closely. Still, in my opinion, the only factor holding the x1 back is the higher price tag. $400 X1 would make me buy it over a ps4
