Consoles define this generation system used in gaming, Playstation 2, Xbox and Nintendo’s Gamecube are all last generation consoles, Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo’s wii are next generation turned current generation systems. The industry seems to revolve around this, including PC gaming, which has the potential to adopt such a system with new graphics [ READ MORE ]
At first glance, our silly pre-conceptions of what an RPG tells us this really isn’t one anymore. Which when you sit back and actually look at it, you realise how extremely wrong you are. [ READ MORE ]

No, not really. But we all know that over the last year or two, we have seen previous Xbox 360 exclusives coming over to the Playstation 3 with improvements.
