[ALL] New Consoles Coming.....

[JBauerisGod]

I also think one of the big things we're going to see this generation is the push towards digital distribution. With how massively successful Steam has been and with the ever-growing hard drives, it just makes sense.

 

[Swarley]

Not surprising at all. This is the timetable I've been expecting ever since Nintendo announced the Wii U. The need for a new console or not became irrelevant. They weren't going to sit around forever and not get in on that new console sales action. Microsoft definitely needs a new format other than DVDs, b/c shipping games on 2-3 discs is becoming a joke. And whether the PS3 is outdated or not, they weren't going to stand by and let Microsoft release before them again. All in all, this is exactly what I've expected, and I would be more than shocked if some sort of reveal didn't happen for both companies at E3.

The other gimmick, though I dont know if id really call it a gimmick, I can see happening is the push for the gaming systems to become your television/cable provider. We already know Microsoft is working on this.

That is something I could live with. It's useful to me and other people, unlike the Kinect, which is only useful to a core group of gamers. I don't want to play Call of Duty or Madden using a Kinect, hell no.

Nope,,,,just...

:nono:

 

[Youk]

Nope, u just sucked. Madden has been good since 10.

It's been better compared to the rest of this generation's Madden games, but no where near the previous one. They started out slow, and have made quite an improvement since, but it's still behind where it really should be. They dropped the ball hard.

Q4 2013 is gonna be a blood bath

I always laugh at the idiots who camp out and shit to get the new systems when they drop. Big time no no, as the initial generation of consoles ALWAYS are buggy as fuck.

 

[Point Blank]

I'll just cop one on base, shouldn't be that bad.

 

[Leftwich]

I'll pre-order as soon as they're made available and just twiddle my thumbs till the UPS guy delivers on release day.

To get one for yourself? Definitely stupid. Camping out to get one to sell on eBay for a 300% profit? Understandable.

 

[IamMedellin]

camping for a Launch PS3 ended up buying me a 360 and a 42 inch LCD

No way will I be rushing to get either of these.

Still pretty happy with my PS3. Looks like I will need to build a beast computer, soon, though. Especially after seeing Skyrim PC/PS3 comparison and BF3 PC/PS3 comparison.

I play Skyrim on a 106" screen at 720p. I wouldn't trade that for anything on a sub 32" screen, I don't care how clear it is.

 

[killgod]

nigga what. you got a projector? or a custom built TV?

Projector..

Total cost (minus surround sound system) was about $650.


I had a youtube video on here somewhere of me standing in front of it.


I'll link it again. I love showing it off anyway because its such a cool thing and it doesn't cost that much.

Because of the angle and distance of the camera... well, just trust me.. its bigger than it looks. The screen is about 9 feet wide

You can watch in HD on Youtube

Only the first little bit is shaky

btw, you can get a 1080p projector for just under $900 but I can't see a difference between mine on the 106" screen and my consoles on my 1080p 56" TV.

I remember trying to get the screen up my stairs (because it makes a 180 at the top). I was laughing at how long the screen was. I could barely make that turn.

It was one of those "I didn't even think of that' moments.

I almost got a 1080P projector for my living room but I ran into the issue of having massive windows and I had to spend stupid amounts of money to get black out curtains that weren't shit.

I'm just waiting till I buy a new house with a proper basement because projector systems when done right are pretty cool and relatively cheap.

I can see where that would be an issue in a main room. I have a 4 bedroom house and have this room just for gaming and movies. I have a thick brown blanket over the windows (on a curtain rod). Very little light gets in during the day . I rarely play games during the day anyway but its nice for when I do.

Everything should run 1080p at 60 fps, all consoles should come with SSDs, everything should be able to to be bought digitally, and all saves should have the option to live in the cloud. Thats all I can think of....it is not my specialty.
