I am going to be completely honest here. Which is purely MY opinion to which you are welcome to disagree if you feel so inclined. If M$ screws up enough that their Xbox market fails, for...any number of potential reasons. I will not shed ONE tear. I firmly believe they ONLY came into the market to earn a quick buck and really don't know what they are doing in terms of the gaming industry. We are talking about a company that made it's way producing Operating Systems. That's it. They really had no place in the gaming console market to begin with.

This only comes out more given the shoddy hardware that doesn't work (Kinect), very VERY few exclusives, making you pay up the ass whenever and wherever possible, in a system that really..all it is, is a watered down PC. That gives out about half the power for the same cost as a decent budget computer. In addition to all that, they release their consoles KNOWING there are serious problems with them, BUT ships them off anyway cause..well..they have $'s in their eyes. Plain an Simple. Once they have your money, they really don't care.

Now, True, Sony DOES have a bad habit of copying its competition. However, They have provided AMAZING titles (including exclusives) and services. Ever since PS1. All things considered. They are a great company that does try there best and cares about its fans. I sincerely hope their new system is successful. I really do. I never want to lose Sony. I realize that competition is a good thing. Keeps all businesses on their toes and motivates everyone to do better than the other. M$, time and time again, show that they really only care about money, not their customers. With all the other new console entries coming this year, like the Steambox, or OUYA (which is a valid competitor, whether you think so or not) There is plenty of healthy and promising competition to go around to not need M$ anymore. That is how I feel about it anyway.

If Xbox 720 succeeds and they turn a leaf and makes their fans happy, then all the power to them. I just very much doubt that it is their mindset or goal. I am welcome to be proven wrong though. That is entirely up to them. From what I hear though, If they don't want to include a disk drive, that seems like a very backward move that I would expect them to make.

One thing is for sure though, Nintendo in this generation, especially this year, is turning into the bright and shiny, heroic White Knight riding in to save the day. With flying colors no less. They have a very bright future, as always. This year will be very very interesting indeed. Who will fumble and who will flourish? Only time will tell.

I'll be in the city celebrating new years with friends and also being a DD to make sure my friends come home safe.

ikr kids are spoiled these days.

-Back in my day we didn't have days, we just had nights, and it was always snowing.

So then why is there a black version?.... topics like these make me think the Wii U is a handheld because people are looking for cases for it... I understand why you would want one for 3DS because it's small and has NO grip... but the gamepad is big ENOUGH...

And your avatar is disturbing.

Why is there a black version?  Not sure where you are getting at?

The gamepad is not indestructible.  This is why people may want to take extra precautions...

My avatar is disturbing?  I can see how shorts could be disturbing..  Would you rather I had an avatar of a man in a speedo?

They need some sort of on screen notifications for when you get a notification, a friend request and someone logs on.

Continuing discussing the wii us power at this point its worthless, there is nothing we can do about it to change it or not, the only thing we can do now is enjoy the system and its games and pray for the best future posible, period.

Mario jumps on enemies, burns them with fire, hangs with 'shrooms, and chases tail. He's pretty hardcore.

Whilst watching the ZombiU trailer from the conference a few days ago I noticed the blackening of the veins which seems to be the main symptom of turning.

I hope this is not the case as it would seem like a pointless fight, unless you can neutralize it when you get back to the safe house which then would put an extra bit of pressure on the gamer. It might be better to be featured on the hard mode thingy that you unlock afterwards.
