Default The death of gaming

You guys should read this article. It is a rather amusing look at gaming...

Just want to point out something (regarding something that was stated in the article). While ATI is making the graphic chips for both Nintendo and Microsoft, I think Sony will make their own chip like they did on PS and PS2

At least there haven't been any news or press releases on ATI doing chips for Sony. I think it's safe to assume they won't be making anything for Sony this round at least

Not that important to the message the article tries to deliver, though.. Just felt like pointing it out

LOL! That was an amusing 'rant'.

Yeah, I read that earlier today. Let's just say ... the domain is aptly named. I mean, it's very amusing, but we shouldn't give this article any serious thought.

It made me laugh out loud a few times though. It was fun to read despite disagreeing with it...

Heh, the guy doesn't really offer anything beyond nostalgia-fueled speculation, but it was indeed good for some laughs.
