I don’t think developers are looking to take on the high development costs, consumers are willing to pay a premium for these games or the system, or Sony can afford to take on the hardware losses of a high performance gaming console; at the same time, I don’t think Sony can pull a rabbit out of their hat and offer a new user interface that is innovative enough to stand apart from the competition using a low performance console. |
Agreed but I think a major issue for the whole next gen though that I haven't seen anyone touch on is that first party titles are going to be the central pillars of attracting consumers along with marketing, third parties can't afford to be exclusive anymore. Imo the next gen is going to be down to first party performance and marketing more then anything else.
