Uhhhh...

Difference between 32 and 128 is 96 bits.

Difference between 128 and 256 is 128 bits.

Most of the time you make some pretty good points Kyuzo, but this wasn't one of them.

Besides, if I recall correctly, it's not the number of bits anymore that make the biggest differences in a console's graphics power. So I guess this who comparison is rather pointless.

Regardless, I don't think we should be making excuses for the developers. If they want me to go out and buy a new console, I need to be impressed. So far, none of the graphics I have seen have done it.

As far as prices go, I have a very hard time paying $49.99 for a game as it is unless it comes as a gift. I don't care how cool it is, usually I will wait until it drops to at least $39.99 before I even consider a purchase. $59.99 and $69.99? You can forget about. Waste of money in my opinion.
