the newer games (not all)

are like Rap, there are tons of the same thing, repeatedly being released, and it isn't even any good. they are mass-producing random games too, just for the "unique-ness", but care not for the actual entertainment...

Develepors get more lazy every round it seems.

Of course they will try to get as much from their consoles as they can before moving to the next gen. Also if you mean PS3.5 and XBOX 560 as an upgrade of some sort, it will probably have to do with their motion control that they are implementing. So really they are telling us something we already know.

360 + 180 + 540

not 560.



Jeez. At least we now know why a lot of EA games seem to fail. Not all mind you but a decent amount.

Yup of course their doing the software updates on the consoles cause lots of new games coming out etc etc.

rock band 2 is awesome.. but it was developed by harmonix though, so i doesnt count?.. hehe..

They mean hardware updates. Like the New PS3 Slim. I agree with them. I doubt that Sony is going to stop with the PS3 Slim, and there is already evidence of a 230 GB (or something near that) Slim coming out.



And plus, you've seen Microsoft go through console updates like it is their JOB. From the original, to the elite, to the arcade, they have been pumping out babies like Sarah Palin's daughter on a Tuesday.



Both companies need money. Both will unleash loads of redesigns and upgrades for their console. They need a foothold in the current industry before they need to bring out the next generation.



which also leads to Nintendo. Nintendo currently is RAPING the industry. I don't care what you say, they have enough of a grip around the Gaming Industry's neck to come out with a new system.



I am not saying the wii is good. Nor is it bad.



But Nintendo struck gold. Something that Sony AND Microsoft missed. The casual market was unearthed by Nintendo, and they got what they wanted... Money.



I, personally, expect to Nintendo to drop out a new console in the next 2-3 years. They are loaded enough to do it, and now that they have publicity, people would sell their souls for a "Super wii" of sorts.



I expect Nintendo to release a new system way ahead of Sony and Microsoft, because of their current standing.



In this day and age of gaming, we are beginning to see a new era emerge.



The gaming industry is not just being revolutionized, it is being SPLIT. From the standard, hardcore gamer; and then the casual gamer. There is a rift being created. Soon, Sony and Microsoft will be two completely different companies when compared to Nintendo, simply because of their business stance.



And, if you had a ***** fit because this was to long (tl;dr), then here is it in short:



Nintendo new console: 2-3 years, because of raping the gaming industry,



Sony + Microsoft new console: 5-6 Years. They need to gain momentum over one another. Competition is a good thing.

Reason why PS3 Slim is a waste of money IMO. Unless you have the cash to get it... then by all means go ahead!

What?

If they r planning on dishing out next gen consoles, they r gonna shift this thing in a whole nother direction. The economy is an bad as it already is and a next generation of consoles is going to make developing games (If they improve graphics engines and other features far beyond current gen) EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE, WHICH MEANS when they come out on retail (I wouldn't count on a downloading service), your pockets will be screaming in agony!!! This generation is as far as they should go, Nintendo on the other hand need to step it the **ck up. MY OPINION!!

wow... seriously, we have no idea why this guy is talking about it being a "PlayStation 3.5". If some people want to pretend to think they hear common sense on everything, then they might as well stop reporting games because "you guys already knew they would come out with games, thats common sense". You dont know what Sony has planned for PS3, you have no clue what it will be in 2012, so really, how can you even comment on common sense?

funny from a masterchief fanboy ... i should say 360 fanboy ... do we really need another M$ fanboy here to talk Sh%t



i don't think so

I agree, I'm starting to find it kind of annoying having to navigate in between ads,

just to keep them from expanding and covering the top QJ's.

adblock? wtf man.. u are so fixated on adblock..didnt you say the same thing to me the other day about it? noone wants/needs you to advertise for adblocker when they are already annoyed by ads..people are annoyed with these damn ads because they EXPAND not because they are there..qj can stop the EXPANDING of it if they choose to..noone wants to install more crap on thier computers just to look at a site..if people keep speaking against it, maybe qj will react?

He isn't advertising, and I have adblock. It works a charm. I don't have those pop up ads because ad block automatically blocks it. You don't have to install it anyway, its just a firefox plug in...

*Smokin*

Hold on a second. When you say "And plus, you've seen Microsoft go through console updates like it is their JOB. From the original, to the elite, to the arcade, they have been pumping out babies like Sarah Palin's daughter on a Tuesday.



Both companies need money. Both will unleash loads of redesigns and upgrades for their console."



Microsoft's has just re-packed the same console with a bigger hard drive and whatnot, it's not actually any new hardware. If I bought an Arcade Xbox 360, I wouldn't buy an Elite because I have no hard drive. I'd buy a separately packaged hard drive for the console..



So in that sense, Microsoft hasn't yet announced any new versions of their Xbox 360 (if we don't count different revisions like the Jasper etc.)

Yeah PS3 sux! im not a 360 fanboy either. I have like 10 PS3s + 5 PSPs + 3 UNMODDED PS2s (yes sony was so awesome I didnt pirate any of their games). I dont have any 360 consoles at all, but my 360 is way better then PS3. (Ok yeah this is all sarcasm, but this is seriously how so many 360 fanboys sound majority of the time)
