I fear they are probably right. Despite what all our opinions may be about the thing, my bet is that the console is still going to do very well.Quote:

Too true, I had a somewhat lengthy discussion about a friend about the 2 consoles PS4 and Xbox One about where each of us leaning. I cited all the anti-consumer policies (the way I perceive them) as the main reason for avoiding the One. And he referenced the quality he's experienced with the 360 as being the main reason he's leaning towards it, even if my argument is that the 360 and the One are 2 completely different things, he even mentioned that I'm just critiquing without having used the console.Quote:

This should tell you something. Perhaps some of the voters have changed their minds since they voted, but it's still a good indication of which way people leanQuote:

bigger fans create less noise, thus a 80mm pc fan makes more noise then a 120mm or 140mm fan. and it probably has a controller like most pc's do that slows down the fan speed when you're not gamingQuote:

Its all a APU system. AMD A10 with a Micro ATX nobo and blu ray player add in a custom OS, and it would be the same.Quote:

I remember a time quite a few years ago, when AAA games were so cheap that u would go to the flea market and it was cheaper to buy the original then the copy. Make it cheap enough to buy games and there wont be a need to swap/pirate games
Oh and pls dont get upset that i called a console a poor mans PC, its just an example
