As long as it just stops me from aging, I'll take that deal. Outliving all of my family and friends would be difficult, but I want to experience the future. If the immortality were permanent, then no. I'm just imagining Captain Jack Harkness from Doctor Who, being buried alive for 2000...

The original Spyro trilogy aged beautifully. I played through it less than a year ago. The only thing I wish to change would be the camera controls. The right analog stick saw very little use in the PS1 days. Along with Spyro, the Crash Bandicoot games held up just as well. Crash Bash is...

I would have liked for an Elder Scrolls game to have co-op, or a multiplayer system like Dark Souls. I think that would have suited it a lot better. I'm still curious to see how ESO turns out on consoles.

My Xbox 360 collection is growing even faster, now that the 8th gen systems are out. The games are so cheap now, that I've been buying multiple copies of games that I enjoy playing in co-op over LAN. I'm planning to pick up a PS3 soon, and catch up on the exclusives I've missed.

The always-online DRM is the reason why I waited for the console version. That, and the ability to have multiple players on one screen. I also love that you can have 4 people on two consoles, playing in the same game online or over LAN. Diablo 3 on consoles is the perfect co-op game.

My internet has a monthly bandwidth cap, which is the primary reason that I'm not a fan of digital distribution. I'm also a console gamer, so I don't like the idea of losing access to digital purchases when Xbox Live is inevitably shut down. I get most of my games from eBay, so I'm saving a...

If this thing had 4G support, and could stream games from a service like OnLive, then I would consider buying one. As it is now, it doesn't interest me at all.

The only thing I like about summer is music festivals. I hate sweating, I hate mosquitoes and my hay fever is pretty terrible. Hot and humid weather feels disgusting. If music festivals took place in October or November, I would be so happy.

I got ninja'd in the OP. A buddy and I were talking a few months ago about how useful it would be to have the ability to make everyone in the surrounding area burst into song and dance. It was amusing to imagine people pouring into the streets, just as the chorus started. I don't know if this...

What I want is for the option to use a USB mic. I already have a decent set of headphones for my entertainment system, and I don't like having to swap them for a headset. If I want to wear my headphones and talk to people at the same time, I have to wear the mic around my neck. It would be so...

As long as the multiplayer is the only thing behind the paywall, I won't have any issues with the PS4. My Xbox Live Gold subscription ran out a week ago, and I've lost access to Netflix. It's ridiculous that I have to pay a fee to access a service for which I am already paying. How do they...

After looking at all of the exclusives on the Xbox, this is the only franchise that I'm going to miss. Crackdown 1 felt like a cross between Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction and Ultimate Spider-Man. I loved that game, especially when playing in co-op. Crackdown 2 didn't impress me as much...

I have great internet, but I hate the idea of my console turning into a brick when the servers are down. I'll stick to my 360 for now, but I'll eventually be upgrading to the PS4. My Xbox Live expired a couple days ago, and if GTA5 wasn't around the corner, I'd likely never renew it again. My...

I have a PS1, PS2 and an Xbox 360. After seeing the joke that is the Xbox One, I'll be returning to Sony next gen. But first, I'm going to spend the fall and winter collecting discounted 7th gen titles.

I never owned an original Xbox, but I have several games for it which I have played to death on my 360. The main reason that I want the PS4 to be backwards compatible is so that I can play the current gen games that I missed, along with the next gen titles. Since that won't be happening, my plan...
