Patcher’s unrealistic 240fps prediction for PS4.. (Responding to him?)
Everybody, including me (Author of this post..) are excited about next gen of Consoles (PC master race are already in!)
but.. We hate some Analysts who most of the time who bring unrealistic expectations about the Video game industry, like Patcher, as everybody expected..
Let me start..
Sony’s new console will feature graphics chips developed by Advanced Micro Devices Inc. and processors capable of rendering games at 240 frames per second, Pachter said. Current-generation games typically render at 30 or 60 frames per second. As with past model changes, Sony will continue to produce and sell the almost 7-year-old PlayStation 3.
I can say that the PS4 and Xbox 8 will both feature an AMD APUs, being natively able to render 1080p at 60fps (I hope it does),
Sony “is 100 percent certain to announce the PlayStation 4″ at a Feb. 20 event, Michael Pachter, an analyst with Wedbush Securities in Los Angeles, said Friday, citing his checks with game developers and retailers.
Yada yada, and otherwise, he is still not right about the other stuff, expect the PS4 Meeting event. 🙂 (PS who even likes old men shouting at the clouds?)

Will ‘Grand Theft Auto 5′ Top ‘Call of Duty’ in 2013?
Will ‘Grand Theft Auto 5′ Top ‘Call of Duty’ in 2013?
Sometimes it takes a giant to slay a giant, and in the case of video games there is no bigger giant than Activision’s Call of Duty franchise. A perennial “best selling game of the year” title holder, Call of Duty is poised to continue said tradition in 2013, that is if it can fend off some pretty stiff competition.

Why is Nintendo not ready for HD?
Why is Nintendo not ready for HD?
One possibility for all the silly artwork of games we’ve been seeing such as the cloth style for Yoshi is that Nintendo isn’t ready for HD. Lately, Miyamoto said they are still buying specialists and hiring people. Nintendo has also been on Gamecube architecture for over ten years. Remember how long it took to get Twilight Princess out?
