First wave of games on any new console are usually pretty meh. I'm nabbing both Xone and PS4, and both consoles will have great games within the next few years. Anyone to say one is going to out do the other is pretty narrow minded. For every great game 360 had, so did PS3, and vica versa.
Why dedicate to yourself to one console? Why not get both? Then you get get both of both worlds.
Good article Johny. I'm glad to see someone in the industry spotlight, such as yourself, is pointing out the differences between tabletop and digital gaming. My main passion has always been table top gaming, especially wargames, starting off in Warhamemer 40,000 (yes pre Relics' Dawn of War) many years ago. From there I have gone down the path of RPGs, dozens of other wargames and gone on from there. I love digital gaming, I see them as a chance to sit back and relax the brain.
But, can one really bring the two into the same world? I mean if that happens, wouldn't the line between them become irrelevant? Not every gamer out there has the mind for table top games, and vica versa. A good example would be, a while ago I was playing a MMORPG, and I did something in character of my character - this caused much outrage from a couple of my friends I was playing with at the time. I explained my choice was in character, and that concept was lost to them. After several minutes of trying to explained the concept, I eventually realized that the wall I was pounding my head against was never going to break. It was then it dawned on me, I realized a good portion of Massive Multilayer Online Role Playing Game's player base, has no clue or understanding of what a RPG actually means. Since then I've been perplexed as to way MMORPG's are called just that. Shouldn't they be called MMOAAG - Action Adventure Games - because essentially, that's what they are.

@rad8045 @Kingnova3000 And dont forget the adds on TV promoting TAB and etc. Bleh. Any Aussie who wants to play this will just do what they used to do before they had R18+. Hit up Ebay or just download off the net. Sorted. Funny thing is, they board actually thinks its preventing something.
