More and more it seems like only the impatient or foolish buy new tech within the first 6 months of release. Whether it's games or hardware, it's clear that developers have realized they can get away with the "release it now, patch it later" approach, so why should people pay to be the guinea pigs? Especially when the performance upgrade between the 40 series and 30 series is so small?
