Enjoying playing video games doesn't necessarily equate to not having a life otherwise. I rather enjoy my life and I'm a HUGE Call of Duty series fan. For those who think you need to be with your significant other 24/7 your relationship won't last very long.
Off topic bullshit aside, this console will be amazing. Not just for game players but for entertainment as a whole. The transition from TV to music to games to web browsing and to social media was SO fast and seamless Looks like the gaming industry will once again be driving technology as a whole. People bitch about gaming but don't realize that our current technology would be at least 10 years behind if it wasn't for the gaming industry driving it. Before you try to act cool by saying that you wish technology was 10 years behind don't forget what we used to pay for inferior technology as well. I'm excited for the new console and the advancement it will usher in for future technologies.
i just wish it wouldnt be so damn online dependent its going to kill me out here on the plains

this is the fastest ive ever seen it :(
My understanding is the online thing is a big feature indeed, but may not be *required* per say. It sounds like it's more or less up to the individual developers whether they require it or not (so, I'm guessing Ubisoft will have online everything, even first-person-only games, as a sort of DRM scheme ><).
As to the console itself, I'm hopeful. Seems rather gimmicky, but advances in technology are always cool (see all the neat stuff people are doing with the Kinect apart from gaming).
Lack of backwards compatibility sucks :/
This is pretty damn funny:

Talking with a few friends via IM during the reveal yesterday I said the exact same thing about the Betamax and the dog dying.
