I tried to forget this... damn you! x_x

Yep. Agreed 100%.

In terms of hardware, sure. But, Brian, it's all about the games!

Agreed. There is NO WAY console games will get any cheaper if publishers like EA think they can get away with it. They'll just take the money saved by digital distribution and pocket it. Have any of you been watching XBL or PSN over the past few years?

Yeah. This kinda bums me out, too, but I'll still be picking it up anyway with the XL. Like Schreier, I would love to see a full-blown campaign in a Wii U version. But that makes too much sense, and SE don't really seem to be in the business of making sensible decisions.

Well, at least that would be something. I really like Kotaku, so I'll stick with it and see how it goes.

Yeah, but I was trying to reply to Totilo >.<;

I hear you, man.

I see what they're trying to do, and I agree, but it's flawed in execution. You shouldn't be forced into joining an existing discussion just to be seen. Especially if you have something original to say.

I like my house full of games... :(

Ha! Well played, sir. :)

So if you post early, go ahead and start your own discussion. But if you're late, it's not as viable an option?

Wow. Is this just a candid shot of some random guy?

Indeed. I just found this article from a couple of years back. Pretty interesting—especially the last bit.

Well, things *should* be cheaper. But who knows? Digital releases haven't become any cheaper on XBL and PSN. Publishers will stick it to us as best they can.

Things would be so much simpler if China would just change its ridiculous ban on games consoles.

I love PSO and would love to see this make it to the west, but Sega's in such a bad way. It's sad, and I'm not optimistic.

It makes me really angry to see where my favorite hobby is headed. I mean, what are the actual benefits of streaming... really? I can think of loads for the suppliers, but what does it do for the consumers?

I just want PSO2 in the west. Please, Sega?

Well, yeah, that would be ideal.
