Yes, before I saw your comment, I was going to post something similar. I am also one of those weirdos who just wants a really powerful and reliable gaming console. No muss, no fuss, no "social", no voice-activated doo-dads, just really good games and not much else.


I'm afraid that even in the console world the gamers are now becoming a minority, Nintendo opened the way and now the others follow, the "hardcore" , whatever that means, gamers are a minority, you need them for the launch and some games but they are really an small proportion of the possible customers.


According to microsoft you are from a breed as rare as the dodo.

Seems like the real next gen gaming console will be i5 with low profile 7950 shoved in HTPC enclosure.

I want to play some games for fun. But seems we will be getting enhanced online multiplayer socially enabled jump controlled experiences instead.


You know that Sony have integrated a "share" button right on the controller?
