I would hand them Manhunt and GTA while they were still in the womb.

I don’t know about collectors but I can see some players gravitating toward them due to no game installs and no day one patches.

I’m certainly less excited for next gen knowing that 100GB+ installs are already here, 4K textures will be the target and consoles have largely lost their few advantages over PCs.

I can see a world where next gen games are $70, take at least 80GB to install and require an expensive system with only 1TB of space.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Microsoft and/or Sony adopted streaming for the next gen (in light of what the install size of 4K games would be) and subscription services (in light of what the price of 4K games would be).

PS3 and XB360 are really the last traditional put a disc in and play off the disc systems.

I had a 360 all of the 7th gen and it sounds like a jet engine now. If next gen sucks I’ll stick to PC and consider picking up a PS3 which I haven’t owned before. Cheaper games, faster install, no patches needed.

If you have a steelbook video game or blu ray, is it fire resistant?

Considering that the average house fire is only a slim 1100 degrees fahrenheit, the chances are pretty high of a steelbook surving the accident if it would actually be made out of steel to get to that sweet 1500 fahrenheit melting point.

Well, I mean that is if you are only talking about house fires.  Seether's question is a bit more generic than that.  Jet fuel can't melt steel beams, but I bet it can melt steelbooks.

if nothing else it would burn off all the paint and leave you with just the charred metal itself. 3 pieces of it, because it would burn through the plastic hinges to it.

Jet fuel can’t melt steelbooks.

In GTA V you can play a first person shooter, a third person shooter, a racing game and a golf game all within the same package.

Have you ever played something and thought 'damn this is better than anything that came before and any other game coming out right now'?

I experienced this with several games. Games used to be able to blow my mind and captivate me to the point I wanted to play them all the time.

Here's my list of games that did this:

Super Mario World (SNES) - 1990
Super Mario Kart (SNES) - 1992
Super Mario 64 (N64) - 1996
Pokemon Yellow (Gameboy) - 1999
Halo: Combat Evolved (OG Xbox) - 2001
Super Smash Bros. Melee (GameCube) - 2001
Halo 2 (OG Xbox) - 2004
Resident Evil 4 (PS2) - 2005
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (XB360) - 2006
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (XB360) - 2011

At the time these games came out they were absolutely sensational.

Nothing has blown my head off like these in the last 7 years. Sad times my homies.

As being the last gen without mandatory installs and day one patches?
