Secret Santa 2024
I'll stick to PC gaming. It's so backwards compatible that I can fire up a game I played 12 years ago and it still runs (maybe it needs some tweaking and loving, but I can live with that).
^pretty much, got a load of xbox hardcore fanboys to come over to pc gaming because they got so mad about the xbox 1 not having backwards compat

The military is hella pissed about the xbox1. How are you supposed to have always on internet on a boat/forward deployment? You seriously think leaving a mic on at all times is gonna be allowed by a commanding officer? Awww hell naw.

I don't think Microsoft and it's soulless kind care about the needs of the common man. Seriously, why don't they just make stuff cheap? If it's cheap, more people buy, so they can produce more and make more money on the long run. Do you really think that the price of producing something and the price it's sold at are two related numbers?
I work in a store where the previously mentioned principle is applied. The products we sell are like, 35% cheaper than the competitors' prices (same product, though) and the profit is still around 200% (!) of the price of manufacturing.
Now think about it: no other company makes Xboxes. The only other real competition is the Playstation, but if there's only 2 companies who compete, what stops them from keeping the prices artificially high (despite there being regulations against this kind of stuff in most countries)?

tl;dr: Your toaster at home probably worths just as much hardware wise as those Xboxes and Playstations. Also, fuck them, buy a PC.

There are some countries like Brazil where buying a console is CHEAPER than building a really good PC. However, there's nothing you can do. And Brazil isn't the whole world.

Anyway, the rest of your text deserves this:

Good choice, although I still think that PSMove has more accuracy and kinect is better. But wii is cheaper AND if you run out of money you can visit the cheapest, yet illegal market, of the whole internet: The Pirate Bay.

Wii U is really good, BUT...Where's the damn mobility we had with wii?

tbh, wii is better than psmove because there isn't the issue of letting go of your controller and smashing your screen because it basically STICKS to your hand
