I am still using the nvidia gf gtx295, with that I can even play crysis 2 on very high* settings in fullhd totally free of stuttering. I bet the same will be with that game, since the CryEngine 3 seems to need more powerful graphics cards, doesn't it?
Actually, Nintendo doesn't really want to compete against ms and sony's consoles, I see, because they don't have to. Nintendo's gaming console is not based on performance, it's based on having fun playing with non-high effort entertainment stuff. The nintendo consoles are more consoles for families and kids or just for amusement, while xbox and playstation aims full performance with high-effort and mostly adult only games like shooters or more or less brutal adventure games or something like that.
Therefore, Nintendo doesn't failed on the wii u console. For example, the most kids will love it and have fun with it anyway. If you're going to compare like this, than you shouldn't pay attention to nintendo but ms and/or sony.
@cherrycoke23 Don't compare Nintendo consoles in any way with ms or sony gaming consoles please. These are not comparable, since nintendo aims not the same goal like ms or sony's consoles.
Also, when there is a new replacement for xbox360 or ps3, they can not be power full like pc's hardware from the years 2012. 2012's pc hardware would be much more efficient than a 300-400€ gaming console, even then when it releases next year.
Since when is Sony cooperating with Microsoft (and voice versa) to announce their systems? These two guys are rivals and embodiment of true enemy lol...
anyway, I don't think so that ms is going to develop a new gaming console and sony won't too, since they talked about 10 years cycle life time for ps3. So no ps4 before 2016.
NCSoft Support sucks. I wouldn't recommended online games with bad support system, especially for online rpgs. My guildwars account never got hacked, but I know that, when your account gets hacked, they can reset your account and characters but the items. So you would have to farm or buy all your items again. (This system won't change for gw2 neither)
Back to ArenaNet. Anet nerfed nearly everything of Guild Wars 1, more than 3 million players quit the game because of that and Anet don't want to realise that and they continues nerfing the game. I don't think that Anet will do well with Guild Wars 2. After the first launch, they will to do the same with gw2, you'll see and you'll regret when you go to buy this game anyway.
I think, it's more worse that to start a new online rpg from the beginning on once again, because of a complete new game release. That doesn't justify all the time I spent for the first release nor the imports from gw1 (btw. the imports sucks mostly, I've never seen that bad import stuff...). Maybe after gw2 they'll release a new gw3 again and than you'll start once again from the beginning on. I am pretty sure about that, because they don't earn permanently from gw2, since this is an online game only without any other costs that players must pay.
I liked GW1, really! It was a very good game and I was an expert on it, but here it ends for me because of gw2.
Sometimes I don't understand people.. If I want to watch movies I'd do that with my Mediaplayer Hardware, PS3 console (since the PS3 is the best supported Bluray-Player), DVD-Player or even with my PC anyway. YouTube & Co is used with a PC or Notebook and will never change so. I will not sped hours of writing some words with a controller or even wait for loading pages, wouldn't you too?... Ok, In some cases it might be useful, but generally we do that on PCs or Notebooks anyway. And if you don't pay for XboxLive Gold membership, you'll not get that much support, I think...
Actually, the Xbox360 is for gaming only. All that including Entertainment materials are for marketing only, when will people understand that? The xbox360 become really like Trey Parker mentioned his first text in the E3 about South Park.
Of course I do like Microsoft's products, such as the Microsoft Network or Microsoft Windows. It's great, but I can not think that much about the xbox360 console and its features.
Furthermore the xbox360 performs slowly and kinect performs slowly too. For example (And this is something which pisses me really off): Opening Xbox Guide via Guide button *waiting 3-4secs for opening*... then sometimes *waiting 1-5secs for loading the elements on guide*... switching from one tab to another tab in the guide *waiting 1-3secs for switching*... exiting the guide via back or guide button... *waiting 2-3secs for closing*. In bad situations you'll always have to spend around 15 seconds or more to appropriate the guide-system only. It just doesn't only concern the guide, but also the xbox menu system performs slowly.
It's not like I'd endorse it, but just only to compare hardware and software performance: When I click to the PS button on the PS3 Controller, the PS3 Guide pops up instantly without any slowing effects - same when closing and appropriate the guide. Done.
btw. never forget that games on consoles have a limited supported lifetime and the xbox live network is still a closed network, which means that it's with limited use only and it supports the connection to xbox live only from specific countries. I wonder why they didn't explained that in the E3 :P
They spoke about a lot of great stuff but they didn't say anything about that big fail.
