It is funny to see so many people fighting this. The future of home computers is going to be yearly updated PlayStation's, Xbox's, Steam Machine's, and possibly Nintendo NX's if they do it right.
This is great for everyone. It is exactly like the smartphone business. The real platform is the OS and the Network. The hardware just continues to grow alongside those two much more important aspects.
Everything about this is great for the consumers. This will allow generations to last for a decade. People will be able to purchase a better kit at their own pace, and they will always be sure that their software and services will be supported on every new itteration, and on their home, and mobile platforms.
This model moving to the console business could signal the rebirth of handheld gaming. If Nintendo can make the NX a phone/hanheld hybrid and itterate on it every year, then that is a god send for gamers that want a real gaming experience on the go. If Sony can lanuch a real PlayStation Phone with yearly updates to keep up or ahead of Apple/Samsung, again, that is gold.
Having consoles improve year after year, and always at on the leading egde of tech, will put momentum behind gaming like we have never see. With the addition of non gaming software and services, PlayStation and Xbox, can replace the PC in 99% of households. The only eople that will have tradional component swap PC's in the next decade will be the most hardcore gamers, and gadget geeks. The rest will be web browsing, watching TV, shopping, gaming, and going on VR adventures on Playtation and Xbox like pre-packed, and perfected systems that do it all. |
From the look of things right now, the contrary seems much more likely.

Lol, i haven't read this line of "Playstation, and Xbox, can replace 99% of the pc in Households" Wtf, Microsoft, sells more than 250-300 Millions of Computers with Windows per year, Apple, sells atleast 30 Millions of Mac per year, is like the Consoles selling 2 Times more than the Playstation 2 did, and sell it Every year.
