** This thread discusses the content article: Vespasian's New Years Resolutions for Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo **

We also vow to increase the number of allowable friends on Xbox Live to infinity.
this is necessary.

I tell you what: If Nintendo made Star Wars: The Lightsaber Massacre on Endor I would finally buy a Wii to go with my XBox and PS3. And then I'd probably go into a coma from all of the awesomeness.

At some point MS will have to cut the original Xbox off of Live. They have said for a while that this is the only reason we are stuck with 100 friends. Halo 2 needs to die off.. then I believe they will make the switch.

Microsoft should commit to rearranging their Live service's fee so it's either free to play online, or so it pays us back for our $50. I would even be happy with a reduction in price.

Jason you gotta realize that they have 15+ million Gold members.. or something in that range. Why on earth would they eliminate that revenue when people are paying it by the millions.

Anyone holding up PSN or the Wii online as reasons for this switch are drinking something strong. They are still far behind Live .. I actually expect Sony to start charging for online here this year. Nintendo already does it on a per title basis..

Why on earth would they stop charging for live? People pay it.. The small vocal minority that have no issue wasting hundreds of dollars a month on other things in their life yet feel the need to bitch about a couple bucks a month will not change their mind.

Sony's "flagship FPS"... is an utter failure. I played it, It's horrible. However, I would like to see Nintendo stop allowing shovelware on their system. Probably won't happen though.

Microsoft: Keep up the good work, you're ripping the hell out of the weakness of Sony's PSN. You're rocking solid with old IP's. Focus on building a bigger and better library! How about bringing me a little Huxley and True Fantasy Live while you're at it.

Sony: Build on your PSN even further. There's been improvements within the Playstation Store, now make the move to a unison network across your entire library of games. Advertise the games better and work on not losing your entire catalog to Microsoft and company.

Nintendo: Bring a more serious experience on the Wii for the hardcore gamers salivating for it. Your pockets will be lined with even more gold. I don't even care much about an online experience for the Wii, I would just love to tempt myself to buy one like I did back when I was 12 years old playing the N64.
