I doubt the new consoles from Sony and Microsoft will be much more powerful than their current systems.  It certainly won't be the same as the jump we saw from PS2 and Xbox to PS3 and X360.  Not even close.

Epic would beg to differ with you ^^ and considering so far all there graphics based predictions have come true i trust them :P 

they released a tech demo of the unreal engine 4 and how they belive it will look on ps4 / 720. lest just say it was much larger jump than ps2 to 360 xD

I've seen the demo.  It is basically their UE3 with DX11 shaders added.  It also took 3 GeForce 580 GPU's to render it.  Sony and MS's next console will not have the same graphical muscle as 3 GeForce 580's. 

As for it being a larger jump from the current systems than the PS3/X360 were from the PS2/Xbox?   You're the only person I've come across to believe that.  And I speak to gamers and developers everyday.


*Looks at viper's profuile sees nothing but nintendo games* oh i see ;) no point arguing is there ;D I asume all those gamers and "developers" (rofl) are not ps3 or 360 user

If we asume that sony is correct that next gen wont start for the HD consols until 2014 or 15 then 3 gtx 580's isnt that impossible to see. If u read the origonal thread about the UE4 qwith the tech demo u will find many epople (with alot of expiraicne in PC gameing) saying that it was actualy not that far away having graphics card that powerfull at afordable prices. The only problem they have is the heat which is quickly imporiving (look at the gtx 570. incredably powerfull hard that can run crysis maxed out at 70C).

So dont acuse me of being the only one who things the jump will be just as if not bigger when there is an entire thread with people saying the same thing ;)
