There exists a war.
A war that began upon the fall of the previous era. Reminiscent of the final days of the Dreamcast against the PS2.
A war where the big boys battle it out for supremacy while the little companies are relegated to puny PSP ports.
And this time, neither side will back down.
For far too many years, fans and consumers of the genre have been forced to cope with games sporting meager 800x600 resolutions and watch while the rest of the world engaged in games with blazing resolutions up to 1920x1200 and beyond.
But with the advent of HD consoles, things have begun to change.
Companies are at last forced to join the modern era. As more and more console ports are targeted for the PS3/360, they are updated with multitudes of pixels and widescreen aspect ratios that far surpass their inferior PC predecessors. As a result, more and more PC companies are being faced with the notion of having to develop right from the start with widescreen and higher resolutions in mind.
And now, 5 years later, the major console ADV players are finally taking up their sides in the war that will determine the leader of this generation and generations to come.
This thread will be a record of their fight.
