...*Looks at the WiiU* I know what my console of choice this gen is gonna be.

[GasmaskGamer]

Sony and Microsoft barely even have backwards compatability this gen. Isn't it that you can only play "select" last gen titles?

Imagine if Blu-Ray/DVD companies and Movie Studios teamed up for this sort of thing. There would be riots.

That pissed me off when they announced the PS3 Slim, I really loved my BC Phat PS3 but sadly I had to retire it and get the slim, I still have a PS2 but it would have been more convenient to have BC on a system I am currently playing, and the 360's BC is a joke.

Project X zone is coming overseas.

I should be happy right now but the fact that Sonic isn't in it depresses me.

[GasmaskGamer]

Wow. So that's that.

Man. This is... weird.

[Klonoahedgehog]

Aparently Ubisoft tried to buy everything. There trying to be Disney.

[GasmaskGamer]

That's fine. Disney is a good company and so is Ubisoft.

If EA had been sticking their dirty hands into this honey pot I would have been ragin', though.

[FearlessSasuke]

Sony may be next to make the move to next gen.

[GasmaskGamer]

So I guess Kaz Hirai was talking out of his butt when he said they'd wait on Microsoft to make the first move.

[FearlessSasuke]

If you read The Art of War you will know what Kaz is using here is the art of deception to confuse and ambush his enemies.

[GasmaskGamer]

Kaz Hirai is secretly descended from Sun Tzu.
