I often hear people complain that they do not PC gaming because they have to upgrade their video cards to keep up with frame rate of games. They send $170 to go from 32mb to 64mb cards, then a year later $225 to go from 64mb to 128mb cards and the next year another $270 to go to 256mb and so on when they could have just gone from a 32 to 256 for $450 and in the long run save money. As developers start to push the games, Nintendo could see themselves unable to perform in 2+ years instead of 4+ years and have to sell another console all the while their gamers have to pay the price of being limited. Just my 2 cents. |
I am buying an Xbox 360, because it looks like an awesome game console with great exclusive games, a sick controller and just has a great overall appeal.
But graphics mean next to nothing to me when it comes to Nintendo, because, as we all know, graphics do not make the games. I think Nintendo is clearly not even trying to compete with Sony and MS with system power and graphical prowess.
If you're going to buy a Revolution, you have to realize what you're going to get: innovative, revolutionary games. Don't expect stunning graphics, and don't expect many popular third-party titles. Expect a revolutionary gaming experience. For $99? Hell yes, the Revolution is looking extremely appealing right now.
I don't need the system power of the 360 for the Revolution, because it's not what I expect from Nintendo. All I want from them is an awesome gaming experience featuring all my favorite Nintedo Exclusives.
And all you fanboys, you should be thanking Nintnedo. They're taking a huge risk and revolutionizing video games as we know them. Next-gen I think it's safe to assume that we will see all three companies making a revolution-type controller. They're advancing the industry and helping us, consumers, by putting out a third. cheap option to the overpriced consoles of MS and Sony.
I am most definitely buying a Revolution, and, if it's $99, you, as a gamer, would be a fool not to.
