>expecting good graphics from a console

I think you could expect good graphics from consoles, I didn't say I thought they were bad in fact I think Deep Down looks pretty sweet I was just thinking that they would be better. I think certain ps3 games were on par with lower end computers and I guess I thought next gen would close the gap even more but certainly not.

I grew up on consoles. After I had graduated to PC gaming though I've learned that they aren't all that great.

Recently they've become a road-block in so many things that prevent gaming from being anything remotely decent. I'm getting sick of 99% of releases being developed with aging consoles in mind not only holding back any potential for developmental progress when it comes to engines, but also how the user interfaces end up being gawdawful terrible, Skyrim and Rage were recent examples of this, heck Oblivion was a gigantic downgrade from Morrowind in regards to the user interface, I recall most reviewers using the term "Xboxified" to describe it.

Now we even have the whole DLC debacle that EA games is shoving down the industry's throat harder than a conquistidor shoving his sword through a native. What ever happened to a real expansion to a game?

I get that modern day MMORPGs are designed for autists who want to have a one click demigod character that they can then not play with as they watch cut-scenes, but why are all of the other genres falling into a shit-pile as well?

Starcraft II: Catered too hard to the Koreans, alienated the casual players (No lan STILL? really?)
Skyrim: Forgettable bug-filled mess with pretty skin.
Rage: /Facedesk
Diablo III: Laughable

I stopped buying games at this point and haven't even bothered to pirate any because they are all the same at this point. The industry can crash and burn for all I care, Minecraft made in some dude's basement was more fulfilling than all that the industry has released in the past 3 years combined.
