Smoke and Mirrors from Sony and Microsoft

An anonymous reader writes "History tells us: Don't believe what you're hearing about the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.There was a lot of hype last week about the next generation of game machines. Microsoft said the Xbox 360 will ultimately reach 1 billion consumers worldwide, while Sony gave a laundry list of features for the PlayStation 3, showing some jaw dropping footage along the way. (Nintendo promised a Revolution, but didn't go much further than that.) I hate to be a wet blanket, but it's time to come back to reality."

  1. Nintendo has only 3 games... by Juju · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Super Mario
    Zelda
    Metroid
    That's it. They keep on putting them out on new consoles without bringing anything new (appart from the move from 2D to 3D.)
    I have a GBA and my house mate has a GameCube. And he is bitching about there being no game on the cube ...
    While he buys Resident Evil 4, I get Prince Of Persia 2, GTA3 SA and GT4.

    I agree that Nintendo puts out some amazing games but so is Sony. I still remember fondly when I first started playing Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider and Gran Turismo!

    And I think the next generation will see Sony put MS and the big N to shame...
