Have you ever thought that Handhelds could someday take over the console generation? I mean think about it a lot of consoles have been released over the past few decades starting from the Magnavox Odyssey all the way to the 360 and the PS3.

The graphics have been generating for years and look now, the graphics have been improved a lot, the types of engines that are being use for the games, also the types of specification that are build inside consoles which is incredibly remarkable.

But have you ever thought that Handhelds systems such as the PSP, DS, Iphone many more could take over. I think it could happen I mean the game industry could make a lot of profit out of this.

One day people would be tired of staying home all day stuck in one room and playing there consoles on a big Plasma or LCD. So it will be a successful idea to make a handheld system which could one day reach to the top where it could be using the same specs that the 360 and the PS3 are using.

And another thing is that people would be walking around with their handhelds and playing online with their friends or random people around the world, now that’s some great stuff there.

But could this ever happen, Will the handhelds ever take over, I guess it could happen in the third generation.

After the release of NaturalMotion’s Backbreaker trailer, many people have been calling it “The Madden Killer”. Which now brings me to ask, What is EA Sports going to do about it?

Backbreaker (In case you didn’t know, can be found here backbreakergame.com) is developed by NaturalMotion. The game has only been announced on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. It hasn‘t been announced on Nintendo Wii but maybe that will change in the near future. Until then, the Nintendo Wii can still enjoy Madden.

Using the amazing physics of the Euphoria engine, NaturalMotion demonstrates that no two tackles will ever be the same. The engine also shows that players don’t glitch in between people, and the only way to get the ball is to actually grab it with the player’s hands. the Euphoria engine can also be found on Grand Theft Auto 4, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots, and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Madden lovers have been awaiting news on Backbreaker ever since 2007 but NaturalMotion have been keeping updates quiet.

What do you guys think? Is EA Sports planning to compete with Backbreaker? Will Madden 2010 be a game not to be messed with? Leave your comments.

It’s 2009, and every console on the market has been out for at least two years. All three consoles have great libraries of games, and a plethora of great features. It would seem that the gaming world would be content with the current hardware state in the industry, but it seems that in this generation more than ever the console comparisons continue to wage on.

With games like Uncharted 2, Bioshock 2, Modern Warfare 2, etc coming out this year there is a large variety of great games to talk about, but instead gamers and journalists continue to argue over the consoles and the console war. In most generations, the talk over which console is better than the other calms down in the middle of a generation due to a changed focus on the games themselves. This generation is now in full swing, and with developers knowing the hardware better than ever, games will continue to improve quality wise, so lets talk about them!

This year has already seen great titles like Killzone 2, Street Fighter 4, Resident Evil 5, etc. and the other great titles will only continue to come out in 2009. Hopefully instead of wondering which consoles lineup is better or which hardware is better, gamers as whole will instead focus their attention to the thing that matters the most, and that’s the games.

I think the reason for the constant hardware talk is because this generation is closer than ever. With three competitive consoles with extremely opinionated fanbases there is going to be a lot of bickering between the three. They want to support their purchase choice more than ever due to a faltering economy, and the ability to maybe not own multiple console. Not only this but the rise of Nintendo and the casual gamer has brought an all new opinion, and argument into the hardware war.

I think now that a majority of people own at least one current gen console that we need to move away from NPD numbers, and console comparisons and instead focus on the software. Instead of doing side by side comparisons when it comes to graphics, instead we should be comparing games to see if developers are actually deliver AAA titles. For the most part all three consoles and PC’s are very similar, and are all great so instead of arguing over small differences or who will win. Instead gamers should talk about if the games they are playing are fun.

Song for those haters out there.

It has been brought to our attention that a certain site has decided to take 90 minutes of their lives in a desperate smear attempt on our site. We find it extremely sad and pitiful that in order to produce interest for their podcast, they had to so far as to put our site’s name in the headline. So, your message to the listener is that your podcast is so boring and uninformative that you must depend on a separate, more intriguing site, in order to get listeners. It is also very unfortunate that this site had to go and mention our staff. Most of which are completely unaware of this site’s existence and have not once displayed any form of negativity towards your site.

We would just like our readers to know that we are aware of the distasteful things that are being said and that we will continue to bring you (our readers) interesting news and content that you care about on a consistent basis. Thanks for your support.
