It is when it was done to de-value the properties in question until they can get the deal they want in place. For example, Paramount/universal (im not sure who) has the rights to bruce banner hulk solo movies. Marvel can use him for team ups and has re-popularized him, but para/versal doesn’t want to cut a deal for…

Not true, if you don’t hear about them until after they are dead then they are not a sell out.

You’re argument is a tad pathetic. A good game is a good game. For me, yes, Twilight princess and the windwaker remake are all games I owned and fondly remember. No need for me to re-tread, but for a lot of people that were not old enough or hell even around back them they are great games.

Nothing. Nintendo doesn’t play the let’s churn shiz out and drop prices game. They will charge full price until they feel they can make more money by cutting the price.

Seriously, you honestly think this? You are all kinds of special, I am talking short bus, window licking, paint chip eating special. :-p

I am willing to pay 500 dollars for 1 particular game. Having said that I can understand someone not willing to pay 300 for 1 game. I don’t understand not willing to spend 300 on 8 or 9 games though. that is a good turn out.

You may want to do some digging, but from my understanding the Nintendo New eXperience is a complete departure of their hardware and not likely to be backwards compatible.

Or if you bought the xbox anywhere that has a price match policy you had to go to the hassel of asking for the price match.

You’re not really fragmenting your user base when you release a more powerful version of the console you are currently making. Game consoles have traditionally had a 5 year lifespan, with poor performing ones lasting 4 years. This is not new, what is fairly new is Microsoft and Sony trying to make their consoles last…

none of these links work for me. this happened last week also. am I missin something?

For someone like you or myself, yeah, it’s really not much. For that person working a low paying job, covering a mortgage, car payments, having to buy a new water heater, making sure his family is fed, etc... this may be his or her only source of entertainment as they give up a lot. without proper planing 400 every…

I understand where you are coming from. I really do.

it won’t be this year but the next one or even the year after. You will be able to sell your PS4 as it is still going to be viable, and upgrade to the new one. I would not be too surprised if Sony or MS would allow for some kind of trade in program for them recycle cases and parts.

Consoles traditionally run on a 5 year hardware cycle. Both Sony and MS have been trying to push this out to 10 years in order to maximize profits. Unfortunately, as you have stated, games on consoles are looking bad. This gen was all about profits. They used basic hardware they could sell at a profit and it’s caught…

it would be a whole new console, using the same exact manufacturing and tooling with a few slight design changes that will be easy to implement during manufacturing. (maybe upgrading usb ports, sata capabilites, external addon’s, etc).

you would not want Sony to purchase AMD Graphics. They are the foil in NVIDIA’s side and provide the graphics chips to every console manufacturer out there based on their price to performance. We want them to stay stand alone and healthy so that console manufacturers and pc companies have graphics options available to…

I disagree. Considering the potential size of the market, the very low overhead in comparison to pc’s, I can easily see amd providing the chips required. Remember that in 5 years time you are talking about a 100 million units.

They refused to sign the consent forms. everyone else was ok with it.

Well, to be fair it is their (the “mouth breathers”)right. By calling them mouth breathers though, you are also behaving in a manner consistent with their beliefs.

I’m guessing is that there were no slutty male androgynous dancers in school boy outfits for the Ladies to gawk at.
