The gaming industry is hurting for the first time ever, it's only two options seem to be cutesy games, or keep re-hashing itself. It's strange to think that the current generation of consoles may be the end of the line for the console wars. There are no new consoles in development, which is really bizarre considering that the PS3 was in development pretty much as soon as the PS2 hit the stores.
Anyone know if this is legit? I have a hard time believing there is no development in place at MSFT and Sony for successors to the 360 and PS3 considering how old they are. The graphics are probably "good enough" which is one of the reasons why (and the vendors do not make money on the hardware for a long time). It just sucks because the ty console hardware drags down the progression of PC gaming as PC's are far far more powerful gaming systems other than in the year the console is released.

EA/DICE announcements around BF:BC2 are painful, it sucks paying for map packs but I am willing to do it (for high quality maps), yet it takes them half a year to produce any new content. Community mappers had custom TF2 maps out immediately once the SDK was released. And STILL no PC R8 patch.
