2: Given the aforementioned price issue, I’d rather know as much as possible going in, though ideally I’d like to avoid story spoilers.

3: I’d much rather wait ten years because you get better value out of the current generation.

4: Depends on the type of game; it’s fine when it’s an essential part of the game design like the Metroid series, but I’m definitely not in support of unlockables that are simply there to artificially increase replay value or force you to invest an inordinate amount of time to access some in-game ability that should have been available from the first level.

5: I want to crush people and don’t mind saying so. In fact, I think all of you would prefer to crush people but won’t admit it because you don’t want to sound like jerks.

6: Waggle gets a bad rap. It can be implemented well, whereas the other two technologies are completely untested and too expensive to implement on a wide scale anytime soon. (Yes, I know about Natal…and I also know that less than 10% of 360 owners will buy it)

7: A nice idea in theory, but I agree with those of you who are afraid of the fanboy war aspect. I mean, people will be organizing 360 vs. ps3 matchups constantly as if it actually meant something. On the plus side, maybe ridiculing someone’s console preference will replace the ridiculing of their sexual preference…but considering the emotional maturity of most of these people, perhaps not.

2. Nothing/As little as possible. I was constantly avoiding every single preview, article, etc on Uncharted 2 and MW2 relating to single player. With Uncharted I was successful, but MW2 2 or 3 set pieces were brought to my attention. Roll on Heavy Rain.

3. TEN!!!!!! I highly doubt that anyone would require me to list the reasons, but JIK. Development costs, developers finally getting the hang of current technology (even on PS3!) and £350 for a PS3 is still in the process of being justified. If Sony do 2010 like they did 2009 though, then they’re on course.

4. Earn it. For the same reason I like trophies: I feel like I accomplished something and have something to prove for it.

5. A mixture of both. On one hand, pulling a match together at the last minute feels great. On the other hand, beating the crap out of a full group/clan in Mosh Pitt feels amazing especially after the initial smack talk about how our asses will be served to us. Ah, the joys of irony.

6. Waggle-mote. Natal puts me off because I, like seemingly everyone else, am too damn lazy to jump around the room. 3D also doesn’t appeal to me as 3D has yet to prove to me that it isn’t just a gimmick. I saw Avatar and, IMHO, the 3D was pointless. I was more impressed with the CGI when it truly shone.

7. I t would be interesting for PS3/360 users as I could play against my cousins and friend who have 360s. PC gamers would be slaughtered as we use our superior analogue sticks! I jest, in fact I wish more PS3 games supported WSAD. Or is it WASD? Please do tell.

2. Find out as much as possible WITHOUT giving away spoilers.

3. 10 years, with stuff like Natal and NXE keeping things fresh in between.

4. Well if everyone else has to achieve it the same way, I would prefer getting it through hard work, it’s much more rewarding.

5. Win a close one, it’s much more exhilarating and fun, kinda like watching a football game.

6. 3D Glasses with current controllers, but with motion game with no controller in close second.

7. I couldn’t imagine a PS3 vs. 360 game lobby, considering all the jerks who play such games. It would always be a constant fanboy war.

2. I’d rather know nothing, especially where story is concerned. This is especially true for games I’ve been waiting for and will buy regardless, i.e. Mass Effect 2, FFXIII, GoWIII.

3. I’m happy with what I have now, and would rather see a vast improvement after more time. Helps save money, too.

4. Don’t use codes.

5. Winning a close one is more exciting, but crushing someone is fun when it happens once in a while. In Demon’s Souls, I’ve experienced both. A great fight is always a good time, and I’ll send a message to the other player afterwards, regardless of the outcome. There’s nothing like the feeling of one or two-hit kills, though, just as long as it’s not too often and it gets boring.

6. The waggle controller is enough for me. Seriously, the Natal looks pretty lame, and more of a gimmick than anything. 3D glasses don’t really allow for epic playing periods. But who knows, the Wii is far and away the best-selling system, so maybe the masses will swoon. It’s just a sore subject for hardcore gamers.

7. Why shouldn’t I want to play with someone on a different system? Just makes it easier to find someone.

2. Go into the game/movie/book/anything knowing absolutely nothing. I’m not big on spoilers.

3. Wait ten years for next generation. This gen is just now maturing, lets stick w/ it for a while!

4. Earning an unlock or special reward through hours of toil is worth the feeling when you finally get something awesome.

5. Winning a close online multiplier match is more fun, but every once in a while it’s nice to crush someone.

6. So either I have to get up and do shit or vomit from the nausea caused by 3D gaming? I’ll pass.

7. I think it’d be cool to let 360 and PS3 players compete, but PC gamers need to stay away because they would crush console gamers.

2. Is this really a question? Come on! Of course I’d buy without any info! [Lying]

3. So 10 years for crappy motion control or 5 years for same old crap… Hmmm…I’ll make a time machine and go back to when Nintendo was still awesome. Those were good days of innovation.

4. Well both are nice. Getting an awesome or just cool reward in a game is the reason we play, but just as long as there’s enough game left after getting the reward that I can enjoy the reward without having to just replay the game or something. Entering a code is sorta boring because going through the whole game with a reward is basically like cheating and you don’t get to experience the satisfaction of earning the reward.

5. I’d rather have a close game that’s fun. I don’t want to be constantly dying and then barely win, or just barely lose at the end. Evenly matched teams competing is cool as long as there’s no bullschidt.

6. Bust out my N64.

7. Well it makes sense to separate consoles so you don’t have fanboys flaming over their Xbox 360 or PS3 headsets while you’re playing MW2 while PC gamers write text messages saying “SHUT UUPPPPPPPPPPPPPP”, so I say keep each console separate. If we could have one universal console, though, then that’d be a good solution to the plague of console fanboyism.

I always love these WYR’s! Can’t wait for the next one!

2. Well, considering that I’ve been absorbing Mass Effect info like a sponge, I think I need to cut back.

3. Ten years. I can barely afford meals, let alone a new console! (slight exaggeration)

4. Use a code up front. Go to hell, Auditore Cape.

5. Crushing an opponent is fun, but I like the thrills of a close match.

6. None, please. 3D if I had to pick one.

7. Keep it in the family. God, can you imagine if PS3/360 owners could go toe to toe? I shudder to think about the countless accusations of sexual deviancy.

2. Find out everything. Spoilers don’t bother me.

3.10 years, please. Money is too precious.

4. It depends. In the case of GTA IV, I would rather wait and earn it. In the case of say, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, I used a code to unlock Hulk and Thor right away, as I knew I would not replay the game anytime soon.

5. Close always feels better.

6. Can’t answer this til I play a 3-D game.

7. Multi-platform would rock.
