The Ultimate Hi Def Next Gen Console thread (internet connection required)

<< < (3/53) > >>

So far, I've heard nothing that really makes me want to buy one.  My 360 works just fine, and if it isn't backwards-compatible, I don't see any point in replacing my current console, at least not immediately.  I can wait on new games.  I've got plenty I haven't finished yet, and so far, I haven't heard of any new titles that I NEED!

I've also got no stake in console wars, and never owned a PS3 (my PS2 is gathering dust), but I'm not going to make a next-gen decision until both are out.  Even if it means sacrificing my pretty substantial XBOX gamerscore.  If I buy a game, I just want to bring it home and bloody play it, regardless of how good my internet connection is, or whether or not it's used.

This reveal was a bit of a disaster to me. While the PS4 didn't do anything groundbreaking, other than show and prove a hell of a lot of support for the indie community, they basically confirmed not having many of the worst features we were hearing rumors about this gen getting. MS basically confirmed all of them.

There is also the issue that Sony at least had real hardware reasons for not including Backwards Compatibility. MS has no such excuse here.

"We're going to pack a computer running a modified Windows into a box, but it's not going to run the same games as the older computer running a modified Windows into a box. But don't worry, you can at least watch TV on this computer in a box, after you plug it into your TV".

Yeah, great job.

Parkour Lewis:
Backwards compatibility isn't that big of a deal to me, and I don't really see why anyone tries to make it one.  If you own a 360 now, then you have a device to run those games on, and if you don't, why do you care about backwards compatibility?  A lot more goes into making a console backwards compatible than most people think, and I'd rather they spent those resources on other features, myself.
