Consoles won't die in the near future, they will probably have less lifespan if they keep making them underpowered

No, they won't. Especially with graphics having plateau'd.

Deminishing returns on improved image quality vs performance needed.

Consoles will always be behinde powerhouse PCs, but.... the differnce is, as time goes on the visual differnces are growing smaller and smaller.

 

Consoles will always be cheaper than a pc solution, and simpler (put disc in and play), controller in hand and gameing in a relaxed mood is what most want.

That isnt just changeing over night.
