I want to see these consoles go the distance I mean hell developing for them is a bitch and expensive (aside from the Wii). And im not talking about just the PS3 tagging along the PS4 im talking about 360, Wii, PS3 until 2016 at least. |
I like the idea of a decently long generation, but not 10 years. I like 2011/2012 as the release of a new set of consoles. Or at least, for the first, with others to follow. While I think we're at a point where the graphics are good enough to last for a while, I think we'll be ready for a Digital distribution based system with unlimited flexibilty by then. I mean, it's possible now, but in a few years I think everyone will be ready for it. Also, I don't think it will be the leap that other generations have made... it will be more of a GC--->Wii type move. Better system, more advanced technology, but not everything that can possibly be added making pricing a huge concern. Honestly, the 360 and PS3 are amazing systems - faster processors, more ram, updated GPUs and bigger HDs, and you're good to go. The wheel doesn't need to be reinvented next generation... Just boost the power, leaving the developers with roughly the same hardware setup.
