wow, ok, most people here seem to think it's time for both a new PS and Xbox, but who where those people a year ago at the time of the rumors of Wii U that claimed they were happy with their current gen and consoles for at least another few years? |
I personaly never claimed that. But you have to admit that the people with PS360s weren't looking forward to a Wii U only slightly more powerfull than the PS360 they already have. I'll be getting a Wii U as soon as a real Mario, Zelda or Metroid hits because I always buy Nintendo consoles for my favorite Nintendo games. But I'm sure you can see that people are excited about the next Playstation and Xbox because they will be huge advancements compared to what we have now. Halo 5 is going to be spectacular.

Agreed, but which will make MS more money Halo 5 on 360 2014 or Halo 5 on 720 in 2014? Hence my reason for tthis thred. Yes the gen has to end some time, but is now the right time for Sony and MS? I'm not so sure of that.

MS makes Halo for two reasons. It makes money and sells consoles. The consoles it sells get the machine into peoples homes who buy more games. They make most of their money from liscensing 3rd party games. So MS will make more money from Halo 5 on the Nextbox because people have started to slow down buying stuff on the current gen and are waiting for the next gen. Halo 5 will convince them to buy Nextbox and they will make truckloads of money from 3rd party liscenses.
