That wasn't directed specifically at you. I read that stuff everywhere, besides CP (though here as well), on the Saints board I'm on, as well as a couple others in their respective tech forums. I understand, just seems like in every discussion I wade into theres random shots at consoles by the PC crowd, whether it even related to the topic or not. Just gets annoying to read after awhile.
Anyway, I really think if it wasn't for the '08 recession, we would've seen new consoles by now. Seemed to be they made the switch every 5 years, so this 7 year gap is extreme. Probably didn't want to release a whole new, expensive console to a market in those economic conditions, makes sense. But now that things are finally coming around, we're finally seeing talk of a new system in the next 1.5 years or so. I agree its overdue.
...and I like whoever's idea it was to call it the XBox 4.5. Gamesmanship ftw.
