  1. Alright so, it's pretty obvious that this generation is completely all for technology. With this in mind, that means we are hungry for more and more in the "video entertainment" aspect of our lives (atleast I am, I won't deny.) Now, with the Wii-U's impending release, you can possibly expect a pricey range for new games for said console. At one point, game retailers had a 'fictitious' price for the games that were around the 100$ mark. Now I don't know about you, but that's a little much for a Game. Nintendo Did re-assure us that because there is no official price for the Wii-U itself, the prices were estimated, but I mean, an estimation of 100$ for a game?

     

    Alright, keep that in mind and move ahead a year or so. Now Sony and Microsoft have been planning on releasing new consoles as well. Rumours and leaked info of the PS4 "Orbis" from Sony, and the Xbox 720 "Infinity" from Microsoft. Now we're starting to see that war for gaming dominance (although it was pretty clear from the start with the N64, Xbox, and PS). What i'm getting at is, prices for new games are around 59.99$ currently (If they're any good.), which is already pretty steep for me. With the impending consoles coming soon, i'm betting on an increase to about 70~80$ maybe even more. Of course this is just a theory, but it all links together somewhat.

     

    What I want to hear is your guys' thoughts and opinions on the matter. Do you think that the prices will ever stabilize and remain at a constant? (They've been stabilized for quite some time, but it's currently expected to rise once more.) Or will they just rise and rise with each new introduction of a new gaming console. And what much else, if anything, can you pack into the current gaming consoles?


  2. Might I suggest adding a point about people not using the same number as others? As a favour I will list all the numbers that are currently "Taken" (I mean, you can't really give two separate people prizes because they Both landed right on the number, no?)

  3. +1 all around good guy, can take a joke. Knows the motd well and lets people know if they are doing wrong. One of the few cons would be the lack of maturity, but hey we all lack it once in a while :P


  4. I may not be an xG member just yet, but, given the evidence shown above (Ideally the last photo), it seems there was no reason for a Kick regarding Disrespect. I can vouch for the unnecessary kick, as I was currently in the game, and Dr. Strange Love showed no signs of aggressive or disrespectful behavior. As for the reaction to the Kick, I can understand how Dr. Strange Love would react as the Kick was clearly unnecessary. If it were me, I can't say that I would react the same way, but I would DEFINITELY be frustrated and rather upset with the Kick. Also, regarding the newly introduced Disrespect Policy, it is somewhat apparent that some mods (I cannot name any at this time) have been as one would say "abusing it". It is nearly impossible to tell whether or not someone is joking when using a written message. For instance, one can argue that the following sentence is disrespectful: "You're a faggot. Haha" But it could just as easily have been sarcasm or a joke. There's not much that I can say regarding this, as I am not an xG member. But, with regards to Dr. Strange Love's dilemma, I think it was an un-just Kick as well as an unfair ban.
