Next gen sux0rs.
I'm getting a DSLite and Mario. I'm going to play all the last gen shit I didn't give enough time to. I have a stack of games that were real cheap.
xbox360 - I already own you. Glad you didn't make asses of yourselves. You have a lot of decent games, I want to play, even the ugly Shadow Run. But somewhere, deep down, I kind of feel like what was really good on Xbox won't be here. I can't put my finger on it. Also, I hate the backwards compatability issue. Sorry.
Wii - I'm sort of riding high on Nintendo games right now but your conference did nothing to show innovation or any real reason to believe that you will capture non-gamers. Mostly I'm ok with that if I can play Nintendo games and you are cheap. Being the value machine could be a real virtue. Just be what the GC so clearly wasn't. But the Revmote looks totally predictable and superfulous so far. I'm kind of shocked by that.
PS3 - You are sort of running and screaming into the worst dimension of new gaming. Too expensive with useless features and boring looking games. Heavenly Sword looks like boring shit. Stop showing so many CG movies. You have the worst fans so it's sort of funny to see you fail on GAF, but on the other hand I was pretty sure just owning this would be enough next gen. Looks sort of pathetic now. In a couple years, this will probably be worth buying. The PS2 was shit for a while too.
PSP - What the fuck happened here? PS - Get some decent rpg's already.
I've never bought a console at launch (almost the 360) and I kind of see why that was wise lately. Stupid gaming forums
edit: I just watched the ShadowRun video.
