I meant with regards to systems. You ran out and bought a Yoshi XL because you couldn't wait a week to see if you could fix your Animal Crossing one. Maybe it's less attention span and more patience.

I'm not sure there is a point that I would want to counter with playing 10 years of WoW and Diablo...

TNL had been lacking some quality GameFAQs level console whining for a while now. Glad Yoshi is willing to step up to the plate there. Should we start discussing how gigaflops and tech demos affect the games we're playing next?

Your first point is insanely stupid. Every single console gets updated now and for the better. All three are different from when they launched.

How is Halo not an exclusive? Have you seen what they are doing for that collection? It's insane. The amount of content and care they are putting into it is nearly unheard of. It blows the re-release of Last of Us out of the water. They aren't burning 4 ISO's onto a disc and throwing it out there.

If it plays the disc I put in, I couldn't care less, unless it's impossible to find something in the store, like the eShop. All this set top box bullshit can fuck off.

What does any of that have to do with exclusivity? Every one of the games is playable on another platform, half of them on two others.

I also love the irony that all of a sudden Insomniac games matter in the exclusive category. I don't recall seeing Resistance or Ratchet & Clank on too many lists last generation.

Chux has the attention span of a gnat with ADD, but anyone buying one of these as his primary system for a generation is out of his mind.

Resistance was awful. Ratchet and Clank was mediocre.

Sunset Overdrive looks like a cool game. If it was PS4 exclusive, Sony fanboys would e trumpeting it. It might suck, but all we have seen so far looks very good.

That was my point, and I guess I am guilty of it with The Order. Looking cool from developers with spotty track records shouldn't count for much.

I'm keeping it at an arm's length myself, but it looks like the best thing Insomniac has done since ps2.

Remember folks: If the rumors are true and the next PS4 UI update adds folders and improved in-game notifications, you'll be undermining the worth of the functionality by discussing it. So everyone keep quiet about it.
