I really dont see the point of spending all this money for next gen when there is still soo many good games last gen(PS2.xbox,gamecube)... Just yesterday i sold my xbox(which i had for 4 years) and got a ps2 with RE4 which is soo sweet and proves that there is still juice in last gen... all i know is a year down the road u can get GoW for like $30 and not 60$ along with many others... any way just an idea..

P.S every one makes a big deal about PS2 being weak but really RE4 for PS2 looks as good as some of the best games on the xbox..

I made the next gen leap when I bought the Wii because it was really something new and didn't cost me alot of money. I'd like to get my own 360 instead of playing my bros, but I'm not going to till it drops to 200-300.

Resident evil 4 looks better on Gamecube and if you don;t want next gen systems I think you just don't have the cash to blow on any right now. I enjoy my ps3,360,and wii much more than last gen. It is worth the money to get all of the "nextgen" systems.

I've been IN next-gen since April. 

If you're not ready for the enhanced technology and features that next-gen can offer you, fine.  Don't buy a next-gen system.

I went ahead and got a Wii because I wanted it as soon as possible, but there are still some great Gamecube games I haven't played yet.

Progress would involve buying something useful and not a videogame console. I like my videogaming hobby, but at the end of the day anyone has to admit it's pretty useless.

Yes, i agree. There are still so many great games out right now for last gen. And it really is cheaper to game this way. I know i won't be hopping to the current gen too soon; prices are still a little too high.

I am shocked to see so many people that think prices are too high on everything. I didn't know people cared about prices this much. Its more expensive for me to go buy groceries now too but that doesn't mean i'm gonna buy expired groceries because they would be cheaper. Inflation happens and new stuff costs more, I figured everyone is used to it by now, guess not.

4 out of 7 persons in the world live under the poverty line and you're shocked to see that there's people who can't afford frivolous luxury items?

Groceries aren't really comparable to gaming consoles in terms of being a necessity, now are they?

You have a Gamecube? You should have got RE4 for that instead... :P

I am ready to get a Wii, but I am nowhere near ready for HD console gaming. If I am going to buy a 360 or PS3, I will get a HDTV so I can get the full expereience out of it. For me right now, it will be Wii, PS2, PC and DS [maaaybe PSP, if the price drops by $100 CAD].

The point of life is to enjoy yourself. I don't see how something that gives you five years of fun before starting the cycle over is useless...

Then why are you on here posting about it? You must not really believe what you're trying to convince yourself of.

Technically so is our entire lives. They have no cosmic influence or importance whatsoever and so I don't really see a problem in spending it how you choose. Importance is really in the eye of the beholder.

It won't happen again. For those of you who like next gen consoles as well, I hope you enjoy your frivelous luxory items as much as I do!
