Yes, quite classist. I didn't connect with the author's point of view at any point, really. Just found myself saying "huh?" under my breath a few times.

Nearly every person I know owns an HDTV. Many own more than one.

What's with the people putting PCs in the BEDROOM?

TV is bad enough. Heck, reading is bad enough.

Bedroom is for sex and sleep, nothing else.

Well-written, worthwhile article with solid advice.

Also I'm fairly "meh" on PC games and don't even own a tablet or smartphone (although my free company phone, a Blackberry, is about to be replaced by the Q10).

I'm buying PS4 on launch day. I liked being an early adopter of the Wii U (bought on launch morning) and won't hesitate to do the same with the PS4. The money is irrelevant. $100 is probably what you'll save waiting about a year, and that's nothing to me at this stage in my life. I have a lot more money than I have…

I want anti-aliasing.

As a single, very healthy person with no debt and no kids who makes just into six figures and lives in a low cost of living area, the cost means almost nothing to me. Finding the TIME to play it will be the big challenge. But yah I was pretty impressed and have every intention of buying it, day one.

Wow, I sure am impressed by the jaded pessimism of the hipster Kotaku commenters.

8 Gigabytes of GDDR5 RAM!

Of course it's not a sports console.

Almost inconsequential.

Nice. Keep it coming.

Yes yes yes! I've seen a lot of those and am really enjoying Miiverse!

With the sound off, the brightness on 1, and the power saving mode on, I got 8 hours.

The most disappointing aspect to me would probably be the aliasing. The N64-esque building textures are a bug / glitch. But look at Batman in "detective mode" on 360 vs Wii U. Look at the outline (easiest place to see the difference on the compressed Youtube). It appears the Wii U may not have the fill rate or…

Yep, that is my strategy.

Geez, considered moving?

That's pretty fast. I have 50 Mbps (which is pretty standard where I live in Keller, TX, which was the birthplace of FIOS, and my buddy has 300 Mps). I can do just short of 6 Megabytes per second in peak download speed. I would guess this download from Nintendo is capped, but 31 minutes in I'm at 60%-ish on the bar.

Only 23 minutes in and mine is nearly halfway on the bar.
