For my gaming friends out there... You might have herd that we are in a 10 year cycle of this Console generation, and like me you might have through that "Kincet" and "Move" would be the thing to keep this gen alive for another 3/4 years...
Well its strongly rumerd that this year at E3 both Sony and Microsoft will be unveiled there next system. This has got my pissed as I really belived in this 10 cycle happening. I have had almost every manger console starting from the ZX Spectrum +2 (1982) to the Sega Master System and the NES up till now (the seventh generation)
I am used to getting somthing new every 5 years and that is a good thing as tech changes and its great to get that box fresh new console, Finding out all the new cool stuff that could happen on this platform as well as everything else that comes with it.
But this was at time when a new console costs around the £150 mark and the games were between £15/£25... This last gen saw the PS3 Start price at well over £500 and the xbox360 was around the £300 price point. That is the reason I am a little pissed over this coming out now.
Now the Xbox came out in November 2005 and the PS3 a year later so you could say that its been between 6 and 7 years and that should be fine. After all its been longer then 5 years but I just see it as rude to lie to us as we are the people that now pay stupid money for what we love, 100s of pounds and nearly £50 for a game that only lasts us about 4/5hours(See the new COD)
