The one that has annoyed me so far and not just at E3 really - everyone and his dog keeps harping one about next gen - is this game going to be on next gen etc - and i'm getting really sick of it - next gen isn't happening yet and might not happen for years, what is the big deal, why the rush?

The Wii-U (WTF is that name) isn't next gen - it is what the original Wii should have been - plain and simple...

I wouldn't be surprised and i personally think that the next-gen won't be revolutionary but small steps in certain areas i think tech will be like for the foreseeable future - i think we have reached the point where tech just can't jump between iterations like it could before - we have reached the apex of what is currently possible - games couldn't really look much better than they already do - look at the likes of the Witcher 2, BF3 even Crysis 2 then to future games like Star Wars 1313 - this is truly as good as it gets and all this next-gen bull is getting to me...

Everyone in the games industry seems to want some sort of second coming or Rapture but in what sense - do they even know what they want?- it's similar to Blu Ray, i know there is 4k but that is years off and even then what difference will it make - make it look better, clearer - how do you define better, some of the blu rays out now look incredible how much better can they look before you don't see the difference? if the aim is to replicate real life it's almost there - you can't make something look better than it actually did in real life?
