All fair points. I wasn't trying to argue, just to have a friendly discourse :) My calling it a "game of magnitude" is obviously very open to interpretation.

For what it's worth what I was trying to say was that this game has the potential to be unlike any game before it, so it'd be a shame to miss out on it just to avoid a minor hardware upgrade. But that in itself is of course also subjective. Suffice to say I myself won't be missing out.. :p
