@chessmaster1989:

and the fact that if you're not jewish moving to Israel is a little bit of a hassle.

To reply to the OP: should they be doing it, no not really. long story short on this one is this thing really is political, and the blame for this ultimately falls with us here in the west. Although, for once in history its not us Americans who are at fault, its our cousins the brits.

The resolution could be improved, one problem that one might run into is: is the Wii U capable of streaming an HD signal if the bandwidth doesn't exist then the solution might be a no go. Second issue would be if the Wii U could do the streaming would there be some form of compression artifactin in the games. The extra resolution could be good depending upon how close to your face you hold the gamepad, needless to say I hold it closer than I let my (WQHD/WHDQ) montor, therefore a pixel increase would be nice. However, it could also be cost prohibitive. I would expect the pad would cost somewhere in the bal park of an ipad mini, which would hen be as much as if nor more than the system cost iitsef.

Sure let's go with that. You knows it's funny. I'm from a liberal New England. I was married to a woman from Arkansas (now divorced) and was too liberal for her, and I'm dating a girl from home and I'm too conservative for her. I must be doing something right.

@GTR12:

Did wonder why someone would have a professional level switch in their house. Although my mother bought one(a house) which came with a professional switch, so meh... Thanks for the heads up, I wasn't going to worry about it. :)

@juboner:

perhaps. I believe that one should keep an open mind to both sides of the fence and realize that most of the time the truth lies somewhere in the middle. That, and most politicans are crooks :) Look at leeland Yee, the man was complaining about game violence yet he was linked to gun smuggling. Wasn't that the irony of the decade.

@emmajing:

so what do you want it to do, not drop the traffic or not flood it out all other ports? I have some Cisco knowledge, but I'm not sure if its enough to help you out or not.

@HaloinventedFPS:

Actual ouldn't expect the PS4 to drop that much in price in the next few years unless Microsoft forces their feet to the fire, the reason for this being that the PS4 is the better selling of the two consoles, and then you have the fact that Sony as a whole corporate entity is not in the best financial shape.

Additionally, I would like to point out that Kepler cards all the way back to the 600 series perhaps as far back as the 400 series will be compatible with DX12, which is the low level API in which you spoke.

I don't think the question should be can you build a more powerful computer for the same price, but rather will the games built today take advantage of computers that have more power.

As both a console and PC gamer, I have bought multiple copies of the same game on multiple Platforms (I.E. Mass Effect) on the 360 that game is slow and muddy (although it looked good for its day(2007)). However, if you are running Mass Effect at Ultra settings on a high nay ultra level PC from 2012,, I'd say, besides a few shadow tricks I might confuse that game for an Xbox One or PS4 game of today.

With that being said, I can throw all the money I want into a computer to make it the most powerful/beautiful thing out there, but if the software doesn't have differences which take advantage of it, and if that means i'm looking at a lazy straight port o fthe game then why did I bother in the first place.

I get the joke, but in seriousness I doubt this is the case. I'm from Vermont one of the most socially liberal states in the union. where I went to a liberal college, trust me you have to be pre-disposed.

Gamers old enough to have played Mortal Kombat when it first came out were not types who would whine about the socio-political content in videogames. It seems that gamers these days - at least the ones who get paid to review games for magazines and websites -are overly-sensitive to violence and sexism in games. Is this a new trend? Do they simply make these statements to seem intelligent? Or are gamers truly that offended by today's games?

I highly disagree with your general statement that gamers are oversensitive. However, you have the truth in your post. It's not gamers that are oversensitive, but gaming journalists. And even then it's all fake. Creating controversy gets more views, thus more money. It's purely financial. Make up some BS controversy in a game or games and watch thousands of gamers flock the article to disagree with it, giving them a lot of views and ad revenue. Gamespot has been guilty of this quite a few times, the Rainbow Six Siege article about female hostages being one of the most recent ones. However, a lot of other sites are much more guilty of it. It's an unethical practice in my opinion, but they don't care, as long as the money keeps pouring in.

If I could put a thumbs up on this post I would :) great points there.
