i think they are preparing for if the NX rumors are true. if by next year we have a console that is considerably more powerful than the PS4 then people are going to move over to that and the PS4 will lose momentum.

The GameCube was significantly more powerful than the PS2. That changed nothing.

True, even if the NX is more powerful it won't make that much of a difference since all the games will be made for the ps4 first and then ported to the NX. Same reason why ps4.5 games won't look any better than on the normal ps4.

I'm telling youse, the only reason we are getting a ps4.5 is because Sony isn't completely satisfied with the performance of their VR on the ps4. It will be good enough for simple VR experiences but they know it will fall behind when more advanced VR games start coming out on PC. I mean there's a reason why Oculus Rift requires a NASA supercomputer with a 970GTX at the bare minimum. So I don't expect any normal games to go exclusive for the ps4.5, but I do think there will be more advanced VR games down the road that only run on the new ps4.5. Also, it can't be a coinsidence that the ps4,5 is rumored to get announced just before they release the VR headset.
