very interesting. i really enjoyed that.I probably wont own an hdtv for another 2 years. i really like the guys comment on youtube. its true that it has terrible quality and yet people still watch it because of good content.
My favorite part is way towards the end. They mention YouTube's video quality which reiterates the idea that it's not the clarity of the image, but the enjoyment the content brings people that will make it a enjoyable.Also, I'll start to seriously consider HD when you don't have to spend $60 on the friggin' cables.
Jason Rubin works at Naughty Dog, correct? And Sony owns them, correct? I found it funny that he was almost dissing Sony's baby BluRay. I checked out their website and their new title. Looks fun… probably PS3 exclusive. I must also say that Mr. Rubin is easy on the eyes.
TV resolution (HD, Enhanced, or regular) should NOT be a determining factor when choosing a gaming system…Even when considering only graphics, there are other factors that have more weight in gameplay enjoyment, such as frame rate or specular lighting, etc. But, again, that's if you are considering ONLY the graphics capabilities! In my opinion, the level of game immersion should be at the top of the list, and that, for me, puts user interface, such as controllers, way above the pwoer of the graphics engine.Having said that, though, I LOVE playing games my widescreen HD TV, even the GameCube's, and would find it difficult to go back to 480i now…
The YouTube bit is interesting, but people don't pay 50 bucks or spend countless hours on each vid.
You have to admit that Gears and War and Resistance look absolutely incredible! (Me: Wii first, X360 or PS3 after I get an HDTV.)
yes, we all love graphics. we also love to have fun. if we have to pay for the high end graphics just to have a little fun, then its not worth it.
Conversely, if we have have to deal with graphics that dont look stunning but still have a lot of fun for a cheaper price, I'm game.Kokernutz is right, but I still wont be buying the others. I dont have that much money, nor am I really enthusiastic about the competition.
