Are the 360 Launch Titles Actually Next-Gen?

An anonymous reader writes "1UP has a feature up entitled 'Is This Really The HD Era?' The article begs the question: How many of the games ported to the Xbox 360 (12 of the 18 launch titles were ports) are truly next gen, and how many are just trying to cash in on the hype of the new console? There are some interesting conclusions, but best are the quotes from Peter Moore explaining the HD Era throughout the whole thing: 'Next generation games will combine unprecedented audio and visual experiences to create worlds that are beyond real and they'll deliver storylines and game play so compelling that it will feel like living a lucid dream.' Right."

    The article begs the question:

    No, it does not.

    I'd love to call you a grammer nazi but unfortunately you are 100% correct. However, the connotation of "begging the question" has come to mean something entirely different than it's denotation, and their really isn't anything that can be done about it.
