    SteamOS

    No, games all have to be ported to Linux & openGL for them toreallywork. Valve is going to have a difficult time convincing everyone to do yet another SKU.

    It would not surprise me if Sony starts off the generation with a 4-5x global install base. I'm fairly certain that they are going to break all console launch records by a fairly significant margin. This is yet another problem that stems from Microsoft stupidly going with ESRAM (major factor...

    It's a proper translation. He could be exaggerating, but who knows. It was said by Cboat many months ago that Microsoft is having massive yield issues, so it's entirely possible. They did cut down their launch country list to only 13 countries while Sony is launching in 32. I imagine that they...

    Right, you actually have to download shit while it's available. Though, you don't actually have to download it, just start a download on the PS3 then cancel it. Alternatively you can go to the PSN Store website which is 100000x faster and easier to navigate than the laggy PS3 store and just...

    Yep, and what Soy said, you need one period really. It's a big tacked on extra cost and absolute bullshit due to what they charge for it. I have an 8 GB one and if you use your Vita regularly with the PS+ stuff you have to super micromanage it. I'm definitely going to be shopping for a 32 GB...

    Yep, for me it's all about being in the moment and having a brand new toy. There's no benefit to waiting. Playing games on release and being part of the community that is playing them is huge. No one gives a fuck about playing games years later unless you're doing it for Nostalgia or it's...

    Naughty Dog is owned by Sony, they are not someone who Sony pays off to stay exclusive. Naughty Dog is also home to ICE, one of Sony's technology groups. The amount of stupid and bad info in this thread is staggering. Certain people should stop posting here period.

    I really should be ignoring you, but this is blatantly wrong. The PS4 utilizes brand new architecture and is a prototype for AMD's hUMA platforms and has the ability to heavily utilize GPGPU Compute and its GPU and custom busses are basically built around that. Once people learn to use this shit...

    Wii U

    Ah, I guess it was just on the DS. But it didn't come out until 2012 in NA so I lumped it in with 3DS games since it can play DS games anyways. There is a 3DS version coming of it: Devil Survivor 2: Break Record. But, that won't be out until late 2014 in Japan and NA date is unknown.

    Well, the tablet isn't cheap, which is the primary reason that it's still sold at a loss. Yes, Nintendo isn't quite the mega-corp that Sony or Microsoft is, but they have no debt and have a whole fuckton of cash. The WiiU didn't help them in the least, but it barely did anything to them too...

    That's an extremely narrow way to look at it. Digital games matter and discounting all of the great Indie titles is pure bullshit and a disservice to the entirety of the games industry. The cross-generation games are just as important too and it's silly to not include those. Being able to...

    I'm sure we will have games that only look like that in 2 years. We'll also have games that look way the fuck better and some that look worse, because developers move and iterate at varying paces and not everyone is the same. We'll also have games 6-12 months from now that blow away games like...
