Mysteries of the Next-Gen Consoles Solved
Chris Morris, of CNN Money's Game Over column, has several final details on the next-gen consoles. He delves into availability, games, the new ads for both the Wii and the PS3 and (of course) "Who's going to win?" From the article: "For the past two generations, Sony has sold far more PlayStation units than its competitors have sold of their systems. Publishers, for their part, expect the field to be a lot more even over the next five years or so (which should be about the time you're asked to start focusing on the PS4, Xbox 720 and whatever funky name Nintendo comes up with next)."
The Xbox 640 ought to be enough for anybody.
> Especially in five years. Our next console, Virtual Wii. (Which almost sounds worse then Wii.)
The wait for this new console will be very long and hard, so we'll just have to suck it up. See, men (and women), the new VR Wii will be so awesome it won't just be enough to play with your Wii anymore.
The good news is that about 100 games will be out at launch.
The bad news is that they're all Genji.
"When the atomic bomb goes off there's devastation...but when the atomic bong goes off there's celebraaaaation!"
Of course they will. They'll be: Wii, Not-So-Wii, and Frickin' HUGE!
And of course we won't look like the Tron guy. We'll all have night elf avatars.
