It all depends on the quality of released/announced games and how the Rev and PS3 are looking. But chances are that a killer app for the Xbox this year may even force me into buying an X360 as early as next year.

Tons of great games, but I am sure you won't care since your PS2 is collecting dust anyway.

I think Ramirez is just pointing out that the PS2 lineup isn't so appealing to everyone that it should hold off the start of the next generation. For people that aren't really JRPG gamers, the PS2 lineup for the holidays isn't so mindblowing.
Mrbob said:I don't understand the complaints from the PS2 fanbase. PS2 is going to have the best year it has ever had. Enjoy the damn games, be quiet and let those of us who want next gen to start enjoy it!Looking at the PS2 release lists developers/publishers aren't abandoning the PS2 at all. You'll get your games and a ton of good ones too!
It's just a matter of how long that lasts. Is the xbox userbase about to be abondoned? Is MS pushing things towards some of the problems the PC industry has with gaming? People mentioned they buy a new card every 6 months as if that was a good thing. That's a problem, that's not good for the consumer.

...wow. Especially for someone with a Psychonauts avatar you're incredibly hypocritical. Oh no, games are suddenly ugly! We need the next-gen because modern game visuals disgust me! Even though games like Psychonauts show that art > tech, I'm an uber-graphic whore and the quality of games mean nothing if they aren't filled with AA filled bump mapping!
Gimme a break.

You're right. Good thing this isn't the norm. The standard card for PC gaming is about a 3 year old Radeon 9700pro/9800pro. And it still works fantastic with game today. 6 months is only for those who buy bleeding edge all the time. The way ATI and Nvidia are going lately they are having a hard time pumping out refresh cards in a timely fashion in 6 months. Using the 6 month analogy is misleading.
Bebpo said:
Psychonauts isn't an average looking game, and most developers are incapable of creating such an amazing artistic design. And no, I do not think games are meaningless without AA filled bump mapping. I just think that we need a new generation, for at the very least, completely clean graphics.

I know that feeling. PCs are getting lesser and lesser appealing.
WoW just crashed on me for the 3rd time in a couple of days.
PC's are unreliable for gaming - and don't get me wrong, I have loved some awesome PC games over the years. Consoles are just so much easier. All we need is a controller that beats KB/M and we are set.

ramirez is right, ps2's lineup looks pretty shitty to me in the near future. what appealing games are coming out?
xbox 1's lineup isn't much better, but there are a few games im looking forward to.
bottom line is the only sure-fire hit for both systems this year is madden. you should all be excited about that little slice of heaven. but who am i to dictate what you like

You can enjoy them anytime you want. But having the gap between generations shrink down is by no means a good thing.

This is a 360 thread, then people stary gaying it up with PS2 posts. We want this new console, you don't fine. See your ass out of this thread then. G'damn man, same shit every thread........
I don't really see anything on PS2 or Xbox (I don't own a Cube) coming later this year worth getting too excited for. I'll probably just pick up some titles from earlier in the year, like God of War and Phantom Dust (which I just bought a couple days ago). Maybe I'll go ahead and get Conker also, but I'm thinking that after E3 I won't really care for current gen stuff anymore.

If I were Sony and Nintendo, IÂ’d wait. The lack of immediate response from two of MicrosoftÂ’s opponents will raise certain suspicion among consumers regarding a possibly premature release on the part of Microsoft. If Sony, the leader of the this generation, along with Nintendo, depending on the level of hype surrounding Revolution, release their next-generation consoles at about the same time, at a later date relative to Xbox 360, I think consumers will perceive their release dates to be the true starting point of the next generation.

Only Sega fans can think 4 years is good. Sony and Nintendo set the bar high with 5 years. That's usually what the market leader does, right? I mean, that extra year doesn't mean a whole lot if you get the full range of price drops. Matter of fact, it's probably a little bit better. But the problem is that 4-year problems either have no support and suck (DC), or don't see a full price drop to $99 (Xbox). Why do I want to have to re-up sooner? I'd rather wait longer and enjoy a longer time with my system, so 5+ years is what I want to see become the norm. I don't think we should be judging system life by the losers in a gen, but by the winners. Afterall, the majority of the market owns a Playstation system, and they're getting 10 years of support (although only 5 of those years are full support). PEACE.

then don't buy the new XBox at launch and keep playing the original XBox. support won't die the second the new system comes out, so wait awhile

It's this dawning feeling....
With Final Fantasy 12, KH 2, and the new Zelda, there just isnt much of a feel or need to upgrade to a new generation anytime soon
