Weekend Confirmed 90 - Miyamoto, Live update, Rayman Origins
by Garnett Lee, Dec 09, 2011 11:00am PSTThe Weekend Confirmed crew starts getting into the holiday spirit as Jeff, "Indie" Jeff, and Christian sit down with Garnett for this show. The buzz around misinterpretations of Miyamoto's plans for the future and the new Xbox Live dashboard and its mobile apps kicks things off. We know Jeff loves loving things, and it's obvious he's found a new object of his affection in Rayman Origins. No less fun, but definitely fun of a different sort, Saints Row the Third has Christian enjoying the freedom to fool around without feeling like he's missing out on anything. And of course there's your comments and stories, more news, and Finishing Moves to complete the package.

A xbox/ps3 doesn't have the same games a iPad has like infinity blade, or games like plants vs. zombies doesn't have the controls needed. You can't play the best MMO on a console, or a proper RTS like Starcraft, or Dota. Not to mention you own only one console you lose Mario, or god of war, or gears of war, or uncharted.
I get how the argument starts with nintendo, but as jeff said we are way past the era where owning a single console works for the core gamer.

As for your argument, how is picking only one console in the same league as picking between super models? There are legitimate reasons why you would only chose one console, for the foreseeable future, over the others and even why you might just stick with that console into the next generation. Picking between models? There is no wrong answer. Yes you might salivate over the model you have as a wallpaper on your PC over another but when are you ever going to find yourself in a situation were two of the most beautiful women in the world are fighting over you?
Thinking about it more though what type of model would each console represent. The PS3 experience kind of leaves you wanting a tiny bit more while still satisfying you. So probably a great looking woman who isn't quite as good in bed as you think she should be. The 360 would represent a woman who seems perfect but is a bit of a goldigger. Don't even look at her unless you have six zeros in your bank statements. The Wii? I think the winner of the most beautiful lunch lady in the county. She's a woman who can cook but... not going to brag about her to your peers, are you?
