[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 1848594, member: 560358"] Random thoughts. Most hardcore gamers will eventually buy all the next gen consoles, ie I have PS2 and Xbox because I like certain games on both. There is no reason other than money that you can't buy both systems. Many gamer are lured to eye candy games and many of these games are boring to play. I can see more and more lame fluff added to games because they have more storage. A great game like BFMEII for the PC has 6 CDROM's, IIRC a 5 gig install. Lets assume for a moment that someone makes a game that has a 20 gig install, what is the issue if the game shipped with 3 discs for the Xbox360? MSFT has to make a business decision to enter the market fast. They are caught in a hi-def format war and obvisously they are stuck, but for now their solution is fine. Later, they can add the latest hardware to the Xbox360 and sell it as a new rev. MSFT wants to kill Sony and give USA back the gaming crown the japs took from the USA long ago [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif[/IMG] I like MSFT for this very reason, it's probably the only USA company today that has the resources to attack Sony and they don't even care if they take a loss in order to get marketshare. Anyone really interested in movie playback will always buy a dedicated player, not a video game console. [/QUOTE]
