[QUOTE=Dark Serena][size=1][color=royalblue]No matter how shiz or "bomb" a console may turn out to be, it all boils down to this: [i]the games.[/i]
Y'know, it just wouldn't make too much sense to me if a 'gamer' buys a console because it "kicks ***" and the majority of the games for it is purebred sh**. (Alright, I might've messed that sentence up but as long as you got my point, who cares lol.)
Well, I'm gonna guess that Microsoft may fail. I mean, their next console isn't even gonna be backward compatible, is it? That can be one of the things that may kill it, if not the biggest. If Microsoft Windows is buggy, I don't expect much from one of their consoles. I know I'll buy an XBOX eventually, just for a couple games (sad, in my opinion), but there's no way in hell am I gonna get their new console.
I'd rather buy a bunch of games instead. (Quality over quanity? Psh, I'd rather have both. ^_~)
[b]EDIT:[/b] Ok, well, the GCN prospered and it wasn't backward compatible but hey, the GBA was. I'll include that in there. :whoops: (Plus Sony.) XD[/color][/size][/QUOTE]
I agree with you on that, if Xbox had majority of the games under its system, then PS2 would have been doing badly. Whoever has the most great games, also tends to have the best profits...
