Your statement carries a lot of merit, jars...

Not so much speaking for the PS1 or PS2, but more for the XBOX, I know FPS' s like Halo really came into their own on this console due to the innovative control scheme and obviously awesome gameplay.

The AI improvements from the earlier systems to the current consoles would be an area that has improved for most, if not all, systems.

Anyone else got anything?

well for one you dont have to turn the ps2 on its side to make it work, and it dosent sound like its about to murder you either...

Hurrah!

I actually had to have my PS1 upside down for a while. The irony silentbomber is that my PS2 is on it' s side all the time!! Mabye that was just a ploy from sony so that we wouldn' t notice our PS2' s acting like crap cause they' re already on there side. As for the next gen, I don' t think that there will be as huge a leap in graphics as there was from the last gen to this one. I remember a big complaint from game developers when this last generation came out was that in order to truely make games look great you had to have incredibally skilled people and artists, and a lot of development time. With this generation going even further, that demand is only going to increase. I think it' ll be the people holding the next generation back, not the hardware. Don' t get me wrong, there are going to be some drop dead gorgeous games, but those will have the best artists with the best programmers, and a tonned of dev. time. Not all games are going to be able to afford to do that.

about next gen games... i dont think they will come out in small playstation or so..
cause what i am talking about are the simulators... so far we have seen simulators of aeroplane and stuff right.. the next generation simulation games will concentrate on action and rpg... first person cam will metamorphise to the 3d world and stuf.. there would be these electronic helmets and stuff..blue tooth enabled games..etc.. i have heard of this gaming device which has so far 5 games published for itself.. and each games got about 1300 levels and sublevels.!!
the crazy thing about this gaming device is that it costs 70,000$!!! who would wanna buy such a thing!!
anyway..i dont know if its true or not..i have heard about it thats all
