What I'll probably do with this next generation of stuff is to get the games I want ahead of time, before buying the hardware, and then have a nice armory of titles awaiting my purchase of a cheaper system.

Why wouldn't someone just finish games before buying additional ones? The idea that you would stop playing videogames because too many good games are coming out is absurd.
I don't play videogames anymore because nothing comes out that I like that much. I don't like loadtimes and I don't like handhelds. If I've got friends around I like playing sports games against them, but single-player stuff bores me pretty quickly. I had a good time running through Mega Man X recently.
i only have the first two playstations and 30 games total for the both of them. so i dont have that many games to begin with. i only buy about ten games per console gen. so no im not gann stop, for now any way.
I'd want to stay away from the launches of those systems just to stay away from faulty hardware. Happened with the PS2 AND the Xbox, for criminy's sake. My launch GC and DC are working just fine, though.
Longer and cheaper, in any case.Quote:

Unlocking is bullshit. I don't need to be fed carrots to enjoy a game. If the gameplay is good, I will like the game, and if it's not, cool unlockables aren't going to mean anything to me. Racing games are the same way - why would I enjoy being forced to invest 30 hours racing Trabants in Project Gotham Racing in order to earn the right to fool around with the Aston Martins. Games these days.
Sports games are the only thing that seem to get better with each passing year. EA Baseball 2004 is a hundred times better than All Star 98 or 2000 or any other baseball game I've played before.
Who's the jaded one, then?Quote:
