Hey KIRK, you’re right Kotaku poll isn’t super scientific so here ya go.

I don’t believe they make the old sets anymore no, I think there are some environmental laws that prohibit them from being made any longer, but you can still get some very cheap 720 sets from Walmart from time to time. Either way though, you clearly get my point, just buying something with a 4k label is ridiculous.

 You’re right, the Xb1x is a good hardware deal. However complaining is American, if people don’t voice their desires for better, what will push ‘better’? The goal is to get the best for the lowest price, not to justify paying whatever corporations demand for something, corporations are not people and have no purpose

I’m not sure why people are so ‘shocked’ by the Xb1x. Seriously, the ‘rumors’ that Scorpio would have interchangeable hardware was clearly a misinterpretation of intent. They simply are switching to a ‘stepping stone’ product plan, they’ll just release a newer slightly better console everyone 1-3 years (depending on

A lot of console gamers don’t care about 4k from what I’ve gathered. Also, stop acting like money isn’t a thing. It’s childish to act like we should all have unlimited funds for toys and those of us that can’t afford something are some how lesser than you or anyone. It’s really pathetic that you try to demean people

I don’t know entirely, but from the (marketing) research I’ve read and from how many companies marketing dept. seem to focus on that factor, I would suppose so. There’s also something called the “Hamburger Conundrum” coming into effect, the short of it is companies are shifting focus from selling well priced product

 It’s cheaper to push Resolutions over frame rate so probably not. Just because a system ‘supports’ 4k doesn’t mean it’s actually utilizing the enhanced pixel count or more importantly HDR. 4k is nice but the real evolution in this generation of TV tech is HDR, which is a color spectrum enhancement that uses 4k Pixels

Seriously, I miss the days when sequels meant all new engines that were better. Now and days you have to get to the 3rd or even 4th game in a series to get a new awesome engine, otherwise it’s just a ‘modified’ engine from the first and you’re paying FULL price for only a partially new product, recycled even because

Forget consoles, I hope I can play this on Window 8 and they don’t software lock it like Gears of War, would be very upset. I’m a huge fan of the Metro series, would hate to miss out on this because of M$ caring more about getting me on their W10 Consumer rights violation software than just making an honest buck.

I’m not sure what everyone is complaining about, Bioware fanboys I suppose? Whatever. This. Looks. AMAZING. I was blown away, however, after No Mans Sky I’m well aware the video game industry has no LAWS forcing them to actually put out a product even 50% like what they just showed off. So, we will see. I hate having

Well it’s been in development for 10 years now, Duke Nukem Forever anyone? Games that take this long to ‘make’ suffer because typically they aren’t being made, there’s legal issues and funding issues we’re never told about hindering development which leads to restarts and eventually outdated tech being shoved out to

I’m not trying to troll but SERIOUSLY? I mean the first 2 came out on the PS2, not 3, 2. Let it GO Disney. I know there are some serious Kingdom Hearts fans and for them I’m happy, but SERIOUSLY the IP is not very strong anymore. The 2.5 HD thing was a nice money grab but if you’re going to do a Sequel, at this point

For the price it’s a good system, they are back to under cutting the PC market, a PC of equal quality would run (I think) around 800, for $1100 you could beat it. However, be aware that by buying into the hardware you are supporting the software and M$ has some seriously bad long term plans for consumers like product

Cannot wait for Wolfenstein. As for Paid mods, if you people don’t want them, don’t buy into them. That’s what saved you last time, but do you have the will power to say no a second time? All evidence suggests not in the slightest. Good luck.

Fortnite is a F2P styled game, it is NOT going to be worth the wait for anyone actually waiting for it.

 Certainly interesting, however, thankfully, it isn’t a company’s place to decide which features matter to customers. The idea, the only sensible system, is one where the customers tell the company’s what they want and they satisfy that desire, regardless of how much they may USE that feature. People want backwards

I can say I just got Cloud Pirates a few days ago and as far as F2p games go it actually is pretty good. I’ve only played a couple of matches but I haven’t been completely annihilated in every match, I don’t feel like my not spending money is hurting my experience. TF2 (or as I call it the original Overwatch) is

Ohwell, there goes the neighborhood as they say. I’ve been departing from video games for the last 5 years anyway. As DLC becomes less a trend and more the way it’s done, I’ve become disenchanted with the entire industry. Games used to be 49.99, then 59.99. In this era a typical AAA title easily ends up costing $150+

It’s easy to guess why Hololens went silent. Like most high end tech it bares a price barrier that simply makes it unreasonable to buy for the mainstream. But businesses are going to begin losing focus on consumers in general, people on average are getting poorer, not wealthier. A lot of average income statistics are
