☆The History Of "CONSOLE WARS"☆

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Having observed from the sidelines over the last few months The Games Freezer team has seen the hype and frenzy of the supposed "Console Wars" reach new HIGHS and LOWS as we see Sony & Microsoft trade daily blows in almost real time via all manner of social networks and media outlets.

It has been made all the more intense due to the long wait for a next generation of consoles and the fact that the so called "fanboys" have an instant way of showing their Love for their chosen console and a Hate for the opposing console.

Now we don't agree with the use such a genuinely exciting set of events to create a warring tension between gamers, but when we look back over the years we find that this kind of War Of Words & Consoles has been going on since 1975!

So nothing new at all really except nowadays the marketing machine and hype is more in your face…..
 
We decided to look at the greatest match ups over the years to see who dealt the knock-out blows since 1975 up until the present day, whilst also adding in our own scoring system to decide the winner of each Round!

So without further ado……."Seconds Out……ROUND 1……FIGHT!"

Games Freezer - Breaking News - Next Gen Free To Play

We are not great fans of the Free To Play in game micro transactions model,  but it seems that #Microsoft and #Sony are. 

Not sure what this means for Next Gen Consoles.  Hopefully we don't see a glut of greedy publishers who fill their games full of the necessity to purchase a zillion in game items in order to truly progress in their games. As we have seen this many many times on the Mobile Platform.

We prefer the idea that the best mobile games follow,  which is to price the game at a reasonable price and then video games players will purchase the game if it is good enough. We have purchased many games from the #GooglePlay Store that have been great and were only 69p!

Are you a fan of the Free To Play Model?

Do you want to see it become an integral part of the Next-Generation of Consoles?
