I think the psp should have been released nex gen, Its more powerful than the playstation 2, and its slim as hek. I think the psp is TRUE nex gen.

 

The PSP is (about) the same strength as the PS2...

No, psp has more ram than the ps2, and it has a faster processor, the only thing limiting it is disc space. It only has 1.8gb to work with.



 

 2008 end of year predictions:

PS3: 22M

360: 25M

wii: 40M

Wii is the only true next gen, the others just give you the same game with shinier graphics

To me " Next Gen" means cutting edge, and something that is new. The Wii is closer to next gen than the 360 as it does have a very different control scheme which separates it from all the console. The GFX are weak, but I guess you dont need HD graphics for Mario. The 360 isnt next gen by any standard. Multi core systems have been done before, the controller is the same, and its still just a PC in a box. The PS3 however has a new format, a very different CPU, and architecture that has never been done before. A lot of people bash the Sixaxis, but it really is a very good feature. Everyone makes the motions anyway, now it actually affects the game. The interaction wih the PSP ( handheld in general) is also something that hasnt been done before, and is a very good feature. The fact that I can access my PS3 from anywhere in the world is also a first for a game console. Sure all this comes at a price, and the games have taken longer to get here, but with games like R&C, proving what the PS3 is capable of devs will make there games better for the PS3. Its still the cheapest fully functional HD console.

 

Well crap, i thought that my 360 played games on my HDTV. Boy was I wrong! I guess the next-gen hasn't started for me!

 


The original xbox could do 720P and 1080i, as can the PS2....so no, you havent. The games look better cause you now have an upgraded CPU and GPU, but thats all that has changed........as I am sure you know already.

motorstorm is pretty good, I have played better driving games though, I play GT HD more. 7/10.

heavenly sword is awsome, I really love it, you cant button mash through the game, the three stances give a good variety and the graphics and acting make it a real epic game 9.5/10.

I hate microsoft because I hate their illegal business ways and because windows is dog$%!t.

vista > you


I'm a PC gamer with Vista, and I strongly disagree. Vista is garbage.
