That's the equivalent of telling a Graphic Designer to stick with Photoshop CS4 and not get CS 5, 6, and 7.Doom972 said:He's complaining now and says that people shouldn't buy the next-gen console, but he already has a WiiU and he will get an Xbone and PS4 for his reviews, if not for himself.
I agree with him, but I'd like to see people taking a stand - especially known game critics.
Consoles have held games that I like hostage before, but I never got those consoles because I know that I shouldn't have to use multiple gaming platforms - I have one, my PC, and that's enough.
It's his job to review games, and to tell consumers about the products they already have or are about to own. He can't do his job if he doesn't have any of the next gen consoles. That is integral to keeping him on top of his game. I'm pretty sure that if he was a commentator, or had some sort of other occupation as opposed to reviewing games across all systems perhaps he would be able to do that.
