I had high hopes for this generation of games consoles, with innovation and evolution being my vision for it. However, with the PS3 copying the Xbox 360, the Xbox 360 rumoured to be copying the Wii and both copying the idea of a Wii style motion sensing controller, is originality actually dead and buried?

Love it or hate it the Nintendo Wii has been a huge success, and with the console derided by many for being worthless beating the PS3 and Xbox 360 for sales month on month, Sony and Microsoft are looking at their rival with envious eyes.

The rumours of a Blu-ray enabled Xbox 360 have come thick and fast ever since (and even before) Toshiba conceded the high definition format war and killed off HD DVD. But despite never-ending denials from Microsoft, the speculation keeps on coming.

As we at Blorge.com are apparently fanboys or haters of whatever console we choose to address in any article here, the next little bit of journalism should take most haters by surprise: Sony is only hurting itself and the Playstation 3 gamer base by delaying the much-acclaimed Home longer and longer.
