David Wong of Pointlesswasteoftime.com looks at the impending arrival of the next line of games consoles — the PS3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Revolution — and asks, “what do gamers want from this seventh generation of consoles,” as he presents “A Gamers’ Manifesto”.
Twenty very amusing points that really need to be addressed.
“The Sony Playstation 3 is going to cost $465.00.
In the desolate economic climate of post-apocalyptic 2006, I’m thinking that’s going to be a lot of money. Now, it’s true that at E3 Sony was boasting the Playstation 3 could crank out 1.8 TFLOPS, or 1.8 trillion FLOPS. If that many FLOPS were piled together they would fill the Grand Canyon, assuming each FLOP were the size of a muskrat. So what do gamers want from all that money and FLOP? Just ask them.”
