And there still will be sod all gameplay other than 'pretty' graphics.
I remember when blue ray was first mentioned -regarding PC usage- and they said PC games would be HUGE with the most realistic footage (because of the larger texture storage) and simply because of the amount of data they could cram on to a disc. Yeah like we're still using DVD and barely moved on.
The same was said of 512mb-1gig graphics cards, it's all hype and full of ulterior motives. we have the most realistic CGI on blue ray as it is -leaps ahead of the PC. Why 10-15years and not now? Didn't we say this 10-15years EARLIER  |

| 10-15 years for Epic, not the rest of the world. The way I see it. |
