Rumbling Rants II

Xfire recently hosted a debate where editors form some popular gaming sites had a roundtable conference about the console wars which we are heavily into.

Here are a bunch of extracts from the 10,000 page transcript-



Paul "Lefein" Shields from PS3forums

“Everytime someone picks up a Wiimote and enjoys gaming that is someone who will be interested in XBox 720 and PS4 or even PC gaming!”

Chris Grant from Joystiq:-
“I think Nintendo is being slow about everything online.”

Niels Keurentjes from Xboxic:-
“All Xbox killer games are oriented towards 15-35 year old male experienced gamers.”

“I have spoken to game developers that say Microsoft will send a crack team down for a week if you got a problem devving for 360, and Sony just laughs at the phone if you're not an SCEE owned company.”

Brandon Sheffield from Gamasutra:-
“Exclusives are important but impossible now. With everyone using Unreal engine 3, they are being forced to go cross-platform because of cost, exclusives will be harder to come by.”

“I was going to get the Elite until I remembered I bought a 360 already.”
