@ziproy You're right, but I would suggest that Nintendo is merely catching up. I was always baffled that Nintendo's Wii wasn't HD. I think the current gen of Sony and M$ have plenty of life left; After all, graphics are not everything. I can't imagine what next gen consoles could possibly offer other than better graphics. Granted, Nintendo always has a neat gimmick, but I don't believe Sony or M$ are threatened.
@gtkyzur Agreed. Who wants a browser on the xbox? Er'body I know has a computer at least in the same room as their gaming system, if not on their lap at the same time as they play. SmartGlass does look cool; but I think the Wii U is gonna be the biggest hit of this season.
Hands-free motion controls are simply not up to par IMO. I have never been anything more than less than impressed (yea, I just said that) with motion controls; Wii, PS3, 360, or hell; even guiding a guy who's trying to back up a humvee. They're just too clunky still. Granted, I'm an older gamer so it's going to be especially hard to sell me on motion controls but I refuse to lower my standards of gaming to what the technology's limitations currently are. And right now, they're novel - just novel, not necessary or fine-tuned. Who knows though; maybe The Journey will prove my skepticism unwarranted. We'll just have to see :)
@hostetteradam Hate to agree but you're right. I've been guilty of it myself. But I just gave Blizzard 10 clams for D2 since my comp won't run D3. Can't wait!
