Next Gen Console Poll

[SimonomiS]

Admit it. You're tempted by the dark and vile man-love that only Microsoft can supply.

Reminds me of those pictures of Bill Gates looking erm "flirtatious". *shudders*

Do you have to announce it to the public?

Any company that has executives like this guy is good in my book!

I don't really think one console will be revolutionary. Usually stuff that's marketed as 'revolutionary' are already found in other places before, in smaller projects. It's a gradual climb for one form of technology until it becomes standard for a console. This is true for pretty much every 'revolution' mentioned as well as camera/eyetoy games (on PC webcams), microphone voice controls (also on PC first and other places i'm sure), gyroscopic and pressure sensitive controls (around for at least five years), and VR headsets (being used to treat phobias such as heights or small/large spaces).

Oh man, I remember that. Everybody thought he was effin' crazy, but I thought he ruled.

I'd love it if my corporate executives did that. Too bad they just sit around and get rich off my toils.

I personally have a lot of respect for a guy that can go out and do that in front of an audience composed of his employees as well as a whole bunch of cameras.

Could someone please explain something "revolutionary" nintendo has done besides the DS, which i'd describe as more gimmicky than anything else. As far as I've seen (I have owned every nintedo console since the NES to the n64... stopped at GC), its been the same progression of better graphics, more buttons on the controller, and so on, which is exactly what the xbox and ps do. am i the only one who is satisfied with that?

Why the hell did you quote my post? I didn't mention the revolution at all

OH NOES! I'M NOT SUCKING MS's DICK, THE ONLY POSSIBLE EXPLAINATION IS THAT IM A DELUSIONED NINTENDO FANBOY, RIGHT?!?!

Yeah I can't see much that Nintendo has done to revolutionise the game industry. You could hardly say that the analogue stick changed the face of gaming, I mean it's a small joystick. You could play current 3D games with an 80's joystick if you could program it to. They're still a great company, a little inward with their publishing, but great nonetheless.

If they dont rape the good name of zelda by cell shading it and making link some gay midget, I will buy a nintendo....also another rule, no pikmin' ....ever! But I am def gonna get a ps3 and mooch off my friends' 360s.-

Oh come on. Analogue control has had a massive impact on gaming. When Mario 64 came out I was completely blown away - nothing like it has been seen before. This is just one area though - they've innovated in many others.

Overall, no other company has influenced the games we play today, and how we play them, nearly as much as Nintendo.

(try and find a list of the games the've developed over the years - it is staggering)

Also, an analogue stick it is not a small joystick (which is basically a d-pad with a stick coming out of it)
