[QUOTE="TemplarGR, post: 5086018, member: 283571"] I believe you disagree just to disagree... I can't possibly imagine that you are so ignorant of how the video gaming industry operates... A console is not an open computing device like a pc or tablet. It is a walled garden, getting only whatever content its maker allows and whatever uses he allows. You don't buy the hardware, you buy THE SERVICE. The reason customers put up with this crap, instead of getting pcs or android tablets, is because by getting a dedicated console you are buying some years of support for it. You are buying access to content, not the hardware per se... Not to mention overpriced content, since buying console games has a price premium too... Now, this is an acceptable value for the customer if a console lasts at least 5-6 years. But when a console lasts only 3, this is a rip off, plain and simple. I can understand that you may be rich or getting consoles and games for free, but for us normal folk who don't believe gaming should cost that much, it is a big deal. I can buy 10 new 3dses at launch if i want to, but this doesn't mean this isn't a scam... [/QUOTE]
