i like you. Your arguements are well thought out and well constructed. 1 thing i think will help the new gen consoles increase their lifaspan would be the implementation of genres that so far are only taken seriousely on the PC. These genres are RTS. C&C3 is a perfect example where the 360 version feels like it is missing something after having played it on the PC. FPS which are so much faster and more responsive on the PC and finally MMO's. Expanding on MMO's. I feel that devs have really missed a trick here. Games like this can have a massive life span. and i would be hard pushed to find people who would disagree that RPGs really belong on a console. It just works better. an MMORPG on a console would spell the end of games like WoW etc as only the truely devoted would play it on a system that plays second fiddle in terms of UI. may be slightly off topic but i think if the companies want to extend the lifespan of the systems they should look at the games before they look at the hardware.

one thing you haven't factored into your very well thought out and very interesting perspective, is pc gaming. The technology is moving faster now than it ever has and if this gen were to last longer than the last the pc gaming would end up being 2 generations ahead of home consoles. For nintendo this is not a problem because they offer a different product. But PS3 and 360? i think they wont want to lose market to people increasingly upgrading their pc's. This is from a "hardcore" perspective. Casuals wont give a shit about pc as it would cost too much to keep up.

lol at you noodle

Sweet cant wait. this is my most anticipated game this year so far. SAD i know.

Yes but how many of them have the resources that henman has? Henman has had the best the brittish can offer in terms of support and training. some of those other failures would have won at least 1 major tournament with that sort of backing.

http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15166 have a read of the rules etc if you like then post in there and i will add you. please dont forget to state what league you would like to be in.

do you want to join the league i am running?

He worked hard to get there. he is not built to play the modern game of tennis. For him to get that highly ranked is testiment to how hard he worked. Fact is he is not as NATURALLY tallented as half the people entered for wimbledon. He is a complete failure. What has he won? Yes he is the best we've got doesn't mean i have to put kid gloves on. i am just facing facts. Murray i absolutely hate but he is better than henman NATURALLY. If he doesn't win a major competition by the time he gets to henmans point in his carreer then i will be calling him a failure too.

Well the thing is the way i see it working is the people that use those abilities well will be playing against people who do the same. the lower down the leagues you go there will be less of it. so i would say that you would be playing against people of a similar frame of mind. The rules can be changed from season to season so if it becomes an issue then i can change it. I am of the same mind frame as you. i hate the spammage but it is part of the game and as a result i cant really call it cheating. People with action replay is cheating and there will be none of that. first sign of it will mean disqualification. EDIT: Fancy a game tomorrow? i dont use the spam of special abilities so it would be fair. Wheni say fair you will still thrash me.

he is shit. henman is the biggest failure ever. at least murray (the complete prick he is) has real potential. Natural ability that henman has never had.

lol it will be a bit one sided.

it was a cracker *marks calender, sets alarm, tatoos date on hand* ready for the next one

when is the show?

every MP game has had a bad review and i have loved them all.

lol i thought there was an rpg mode. oh well another lame ass attempt at making a console pokemon game. i want a proper pokemon rpg for the wii damn it.

i likes the cgi series with the minibots?? not sure but that was cool.

R.I.P???? No chance unless it means rest in pieces. someone who does that deserves to rot in hell. what a ****.

that is excellent. tell me was that your one?

no set time. when the first match finishes.

They were planning installing an olympic size swimming pool now they dont have to pay for it.

"c'mon tim, you can do it" common sense kicks in "just fucking give up now you failure"

if that is the case he can rot in hell.

tonsilitis loads of times. but never "snotty-feeling-dangly-thing" itis.

Fair play. Althogh i am a liverpool fan i like the way you can laugh about it. To be honest henry has served arsenal well. He is 29 how long can he go injury free? i think he will have 2 years at barca and that will be it.

ok plugging. if you are tired of the cheating join the league and play people on the forum who dont cheat
