I don't know why people are taking their consoles way too seriously...but why are people getting far too uptight about their consoles flopping...or other platforms flopping?
It seems today that all you ever hear people talking about is 1 console beating the other console over the head with their own bloated back catalogue of games and how AAAAAAA* a title is.
WHO CARES
When i play games, i just want to play them without hearing some idiots going on about how great or how crap the game i'm playing is. i feel the same way with consoles, as long as i can play games on them, whats the big deal?
Well, i've come to the conclusion it's peer pressure and MAJOR insecurities.
Games were about fun the last time i checked....and thats what they're supposed to be about...FUN/ESCAPISM!!
NOT ABOUT constant non sensicle critiqing!!...as this is purely someone's opinion.
(Also, i personally don't get too excited about game sequels now as previous experience has left a sour taste in my mouth)
i can assure you when i was growing up through the 80s and 90s, no one really cared about super powerful graphics abilities as we didn't have access to the hardware we have now. i can personally understand why nintendo with all of their consoles adopted the ideals of Gunpei yokoi, ie: they made affordable experiences with easily accessible technologies.
Another thing which i find annoying, is how 1 console breaks down, bricks...RRODs, gets hot.
Sure consoles break down, but thats electronics for you...you can't garantee EVERYTHING you know.
