    Sorry for saying that. I was surfing on the Internet and found consoles that I don't like them. For example Wii U and PS4 controller looks like Dreamcast Controller with VMS/VMU/VM. I Heared rumors, the Sega Spectrum, its controllers would be controlled by Human Brain. I Wish Sega Spectrum was real. PC are madness and... it is not so nice to control an game with Keyboard and Mouse, everyday I see PC. Even its name is so ugly, "PiCe" or "Personal Computer". PC is still nice for surfing the Internet. Building own console, OH CRAP! It would be very expensive.

    What about Next XBOX?
    IDK how controller it would look.

    And Portables ones?
    Same as above, crapness. I seeing PS Vita and no game, same as 3DS.

    I haven't played a new console in years. The newest thing I own is a PS2. I'm stuck in the 90's and I can't get out haha SNES is where it's at

    How can you say the 'new consoles' are boring without actually have been able to try them out yourself? That being said, I guess in a way you are right, every console is boring... however the games that is where the magic happens ;-)

    I notice you're judging them all by their cobtrollers.

    If you think the 3DS is lacking in games after the past two years, then I think you need to find a new hobby.

    Well I think Sony PS franchise has been dominated this gaming industry for years and it kept me in entertainment over the years aswell. Nintendo was great ! but it was never the same since N64. Wii U is probably the worst console for very long time. Nintendo seems to lose it appeal to some audiences. Sega was great but shame it no longer it exist in console making but their games in modern day have no interest to anyone or me because the era like in 90's was not there anymore. I love Sega Saturn and Dreamcast. Dreamcast feels ahead of time back then. That was a real SEGA era

    Microsoft ? I fucking hate it. They came out from nowhere barge in and making deals with Time Exclusive and DLC deals. Thanks to Microsoft

    PC, well I built my myself as Gaming rig along with i5 core- 8GB ram- 680 GTX. after i played few days on it, meh I went straight back to PS3.

    PS4 is all I'm interest at. Sony never failed to impress the audience so far.

    That my opinion.

    Another day another thread of Angry old men complaining about the current state of gaming.

    It's getting old.

    Even though I hate to admit it, sometimes I feel the XboxInfinity, Wii U, and PS4 might be the beginning of the end for console gaming, especially since technology is evolving at a much quicker pace. It wont be long until they're able to outspec the ps4 and new xbox. A lot of people are on that sony bandwagon saying the ps4 is going to be the best thing ever, but they forget the same thing was said about the ps3. Don't get me wrong, I like my ps3 but it pales in comparison to what sony had with the ps1 and ps2. Not to mention that both sony and Microsoft claim their consoles play used games yet im pretty sure we're going to have to unlock them like an online pass when we buy a used game which makes the "it plays used games" saying half true...I guess we'll wait and see how things go

    I kinda fell the same way I own a all the current gen systems (except wiiu) and yet I find my self playing my saturn, n64 and nes more and more. For me nostalgia has kept me away from having any fun with the current gen.

    Not quite. Microsoft first did the whole WinCE with Sega on the Dreamcast which admittedly wasn't that much in terms of quantity but it still got used. The XBox came from a competition of two teams: the one that won and the other that wanted to base it upon WebTV hardware (whose technology is still used by the XBox 360 as well as TV providers in the US. AT&T's U-Verse uses WebTV tech for TV purposes).

    Microsoft may not have had experience with making video game consoles but the XBox was essentially a PC with a stripped down Windows 2000 kernel. Absolutely no reason they couldn't have entered the arena. And if you want to get on Microsoft's case for this you should get on Sony's case for the PS1 because they did the same basic thing but I don't see you doing anything but praising Sony here.

    I totally aware about Microsoft with Dreamcast. Microsoft done awful a lot time exclusive and DLC exclusive aswell because Sony is doing better with games on it own. XBOX360 also Lack of any quality exclusive games too. Yes sure we got Halo, gears of war and others, but it didn't match up with Sony exclusive games. Only game I played on XBOX360 is Project Gotham Racing 4. Yet I still got the original xbox360 model without HDMI.

    Yet Microsoft is awful. Personally Microsoft should had stayed away if they continue doing all theses bullshit DLC stuff.

    EDIT

    PS1 was more fun than XBOX360 overall. Even when Sony step up for the first time in 1994 along with PS1.

    That my opinion.

    Sony did a good job on what exactly? If we look back on this gen, we can see that graphics have become incredibly real compared to the systems of back then but I cant say that neither the xbox or ps3 or wii have done anything revolutionary with gaming itself. Yes, Microsoft banked on online gaming and Sony brought us bluray and the wii did motion shit but really that's just about it. In terms of games neither system has had exclusives that truly changed gaming, I mean come on, God of War deserving a 9.5 rating was one of the most ridiculous things this gen and gears just hasn't been the same since the first one was released. Sony fanboys need to chill out and stop taking offense to anything that appears (to them) anti-Sony. Who the hell is into gaming for worshipping fucking companies!? Sony, Microsoft and not even Nintendo brought us something like Bioshock Infinite which imo happens to be one of the most carefully crafted, artistic, cinematic gaming experiences seen in gaming in years...so I ask again ps3 did a good fucking job at what exactly?

    Please excuse the wall of text my enter key doesn't seem to be working correctly.
    Honestly I don't understand this. The PC is a fantastic platform to play current games; especially if you have a high spec system. Consoles represent a disconnection from current gaming; with a PC you get freedom, the freedom to play mods (this is very significant as the game I have sunk the most hours into over the last 3 or 4 years is an independent mod of a mainstream game.) Freedom from the controller! Keyboard and mouse is essential for FPS, strategy, RPGs that require hotkeys. It's pretty much impossible to get bored, as new games come out every day whether its on steam or elsewhere. It's all about games, you need to seek out the games that you're going to enjoy. Did you play DayZ before you wrote the PC off? Honestly the game I had been waiting for most of my gaming life. If you own a couple of retro consoles, a current console and a PC, there's little reason to bemoan the current state of gaming (except for the fact that EA still exists.)

    Reason why I think Sony done a good job in my own experience as a PS user

    Original PS3 60GB which I bought in 2007, still working to this day !

    free online - I happy with online experience

    Better deals in PSN store as plus member

    Blu-ray larger storage, make it easier for some developers to add on more. Apart from Cell ship

    More quality exclusive games itself. I looking forward to The Last of US

    Sony risking newer IP title deals.

    I using alot on netflix with my family and my gf. Which is comes in handy on PS3

    I been using PS3 for nearly seven years. I think they done a good fucking job !

    Once again it my opinion.

    If you don't believe me that I have PC gaming rig, then I happy to show you the picture that I have one. Well I'm not you then. Graphics is not the main factor and also I'm not fan of modding in game either. Back in 2004, my friend did the mod lara croft in nude in the game, err okay.

    Real reason why I have a PC gaming rig is because I want to try out with Project cars beta (WIP version member) on PC. Only games I played on PC is Far Cry 3 and F1 2012. I can live without PC gaming, I prefer Console anyway.
