I mean they have Wiis in nursing homes. Nintendo markets the Wii to non-gamers as well as gamers. I dont think the Wii was made for hardcore gamers. I mean they have Wiis in nursing homes.

No way in hell will microsoft and nintendo stand by and let sony make the console while they only reap the benefits of online and add ons, then on top of that we as consumers wouldnt be saving money because they would just nickel and dime us to death on everything. I see consoles in the future with out disk drives and add huge hard drives and every thing is digitally distributed. This is the future that i see happening esp with movies, muso, and games and programs being distributed on line as of lately and the new envirorment friendly movement going on this is the more likely reality. Plus they have already tried the one console thing twice a and more. Consoles wont hit that 1000, mark for a long while if it ever does get like that. Sony made the mistake of bringing a console at a high price point and now they are reaping the consequences of that. like i said it wont ever happen its too much money to be made in the industry for that the happen. like i said before this would only benefit the developers and not the console makers.

Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony arent going to just give up the money they make now for a one console future. Then who is going to make that one console? Then that console maker has a monopoly and gets all the profit from that one console. Yea its a nice idea from a developers standpoint cause it means they have to do less work but its not going to happen not as long as the industry is making billions of dollars the way it is. Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo will never agree on sharing profits from one console so them making it together would be out of the question too. If those companies got along like that then you would see 360 with a blueray player. We don't need a one console future we need a dipshit fanboy free future, in order to be like it was. @Kratos hear is how your theory wont work.

IM 95% SURE THAT THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE A 1 CONSOLE FUTURE AND HERES WHY AND HOW IT WILL HELP. 1-IT IS COSTING TO MUCH MONEY TO MAKE GAMES AND HAVE TO PORT THEM OVER TO MAKE A PROFIT.IF THEY HAD ONLY 1 SYSTEM THEY WOULD HAVE A CHANCE AT TRIPLE THE MONEY BECAUSE INSTEAD OF 3 SYSTEMS THERE IS ONLY 1.IT WOULD THEN BE ALOT EASIER TO SELL 5-10 MILLION COPIES.MOST PEOPLE ARE 1 CONSOLE OWNERS RIGHT NOW SO IT'S ALOT HARDER TO DO THAT. 2-WITH ONLY 1 SYSTEM ON THE MARKET THE COMPANY WOULDN'T LOOS AS MUCH MONEY FOR THEIR SYSTEM BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN ONLY BUY 1 SYSTEM.JUST LOOK AT A VCR OR A DVD PLAYER.DO U REALLY THINK THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE AS MANY BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES IF THEIR WERE TO KINDS OF DVD PLAYERS.PEOPLE WOULD SAY THIS ONE HAS RAMBO SO I WAN'T THIS AND JUST IGNORE THE OTHER ONE EVEN THOUGH THE OTHER ONE HAS MOVIES LIKE TERMINATER.I THINK THE CONSOLE WAR WILL TURN OUT LIKE VCR AND DVD PLARS DID.ONLY 1. 3-IT WORKS OUT FOR EVERYONE.DEVELOPERS MAKE MORE MONEY SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO SHUT DOWN. SONY, MICROSOFT AND NINTENDO DON'T LOSE AS MUCH MONEY WHEN TRYING TO SELL THE SYSTEM. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, NO MORE FANBOYS AND DEVELOPER WARS WILL START AND DEVELOPERS WILL BE PRESSURED TO MAKE A BETTER GAME SO INSTEAD OF A CONSOLE WAR IT TURNS INTO A DEVELOPER WAR. SOUNDS LIKE SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS DOESN'T IT?HAPPY EVER AFTER? THE REAL COMPETITION BEGINS. LET ME KNOW WHAT U THINK HIPHOPGAMER OR ANYONE ELSE. @HIPHOPGAMER

I FORGOT TO TOUCH ON WHEN U SAID U DON’T THINK THINGS WILL EVER BE AS THEY WERE IN THE SEAG AND NINTENDO DAYS.IM AFRAID I HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH U ON THAT ONE AND HERE ARE MY REASONS WHY.

IM 95% SURE THAT THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE A 1 CONSOLE FUTURE AND HERES WHY AND HOW IT WILL HELP.

1-IT IS COSTING TO MUCH MONEY TO MAKE GAMES AND HAVE TO PORT THEM OVER TO MAKE A PROFIT.IF THEY HAD ONLY 1 SYSTEM THEY WOULD HAVE A CHANCE AT TRIPLE THE MONEY BECAUSE INSTEAD OF 3 SYSTEMS THERE IS ONLY 1.IT WOULD THEN BE ALOT EASIER TO SELL 5-10 MILLION COPIES.MOST PEOPLE ARE 1 CONSOLE OWNERS RIGHT NOW SO IT’S ALOT HARDER TO DO THAT.

2-WITH ONLY 1 SYSTEM ON THE MARKET THE COMPANY WOULDN’T LOOS AS MUCH MONEY FOR THEIR SYSTEM BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN ONLY BUY 1 SYSTEM.JUST LOOK AT A VCR OR A DVD PLAYER.DO U REALLY THINK THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE AS MANY BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES IF THEIR WERE TO KINDS OF DVD PLAYERS.PEOPLE WOULD SAY THIS ONE HAS RAMBO SO I WAN’T THIS AND JUST IGNORE THE OTHER ONE EVEN THOUGH THE OTHER ONE HAS MOVIES LIKE TERMINATER.I THINK THE CONSOLE WAR WILL TURN OUT LIKE VCR AND DVD PLARS DID.ONLY 1.

3-IT WORKS OUT FOR EVERYONE.DEVELOPERS MAKE MORE MONEY SO THEY DON’T HAVE TO SHUT DOWN.

SONY, MICROSOFT AND NINTENDO DON’T LOSE AS MUCH MONEY WHEN TRYING TO SELL THE SYSTEM.
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, NO MORE FANBOYS AND DEVELOPER WARS WILL START AND DEVELOPERS WILL BE PRESSURED TO MAKE A BETTER GAME SO INSTEAD OF A CONSOLE WAR IT TURNS INTO A DEVELOPER WAR.

SOUNDS LIKE SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS DOESN’T IT?HAPPY EVER AFTER?

THE REAL COMPETITION BEGINS.

LET ME KNOW WHAT U THINK HIPHOPGAMER OR ANYONE ELSE.

I believe as long as the gamers themselves get the system they want ,and are happy with that system Than that's all that matters...The console war is retarded, gamers only lose out when major companies (corporations )go at it for dominance... NOW IF YOU WANT TO BE A TRUE GAMER THAN BE a fan of the GAME not the system NOW THAT'S A TRUE gamer.... nuff SAID! LOOK does it really matter who wins the console war ??

Resistance 1 wasnt the type of game where people went "Dude, I gotta get a PS3 for that game." It was awesome game but it didnt have the massive impact like Gears 1. The thing now is that Resistance 2 is pulling all the stops. Insomniac not only polished the game like crazy but added insane amounts on new stuff. 60 player multi ALONE is enough to create excitement but then they push it up with the Cloverfield Chimera and the separate co-op.. All around the forums, I'm hearing people people say that "Dude, I gotta get a PS3 for THIS game". I dont think Resistance 2 will outsell Gears 2 but I do think Resistance 2 will move a lot more Ps3 than Gears 2 will move 360. Basically what I'm saying, everybody who wanted to play Gears already got a 360. Is gonna sell a lot but only moderately gonna boost the 360 sales.

R2 vs Gears2 will be alot closer battle then the first go around. by the end of 2008 sales should be only 250k difference. I would choose streets of rage when comparing thoes 2 games but if you put the first contra then it would have taken it In my opinion. I had very good memories with the first contra awell as streets of rage. great show as ususal.
