8th Gen Videogame Systems

[SmashFinale]

Yeah let's hope Microsoft drops out of the race for the 9th generation in a few years.

Sony will get greedy if that happens Wolfy.
Well... greedier.

I'd prefer if they just got their heads out their asses and improved their social skills. Cause if they drop out, not only will alot of probable good people be out of work, but then Sony may go unopposed, and we're all too familiar with what happens to companies who own a monopoly on the market...

A Video Game "Generation" is defined essentially by a gap, or a cycle between major system releases and Technological leaps.

Like the "16-bit Era", "3D Era", "HD Era" etc.
... the most appropriate name for this Gen is probably the Social Era. =w=

As long as they all end up as cool as Miiverse.

[Tanassy]

No, it's used for streaming PC games via a hand-held device, as well as playing Android based games, etcetera.

[Hakudamashi]

So, apparantly Amazon will be joining the fight as well

Cause the Ouya didn't have enough sh*t to deal with...

[Hakudamashi]

What is this? the 80's?

[Hakudamashi]

It's be cheaper to get one of those gamepad add-ons.

Are things like that and the Ouya really game consoles? I mean, technically they are, but they only play Android games, right? And all of these Android consoles will play the same games. Is there that much of a market for this when they all do basically the same thing? The Ouya doesn't even seem like its doing all that well.

[Tanassy]

That Tegra 4 is a beast.

[Hakudamashi]

Is there that much of a market for this when they all do basically the same thing?

Yup, that sounds like the game industry.

[Hakudamashi]

Why is the shot for Gamecube GCN instead of NGC?

[Hakudamashi]

Then what about GoW and Gow?

[Hakudamashi]

God of War and Gears of War


Or are the actual video games not under the same system?

[Hakudamashi]

Do TVs count now? Cause they pretty much do everything the PS4 and Xbone do.
