Still not seeing a benifit for games. PS4 and Xb one don't need awesomeness upgrades. Wii U clearly does, but that's because it started out with gen 7.5 hardware.

If I'm willing to spend $400 every 6 years then the reason for that is because I want to experience that generational leap. I'm not interested in 30% more power. I'm interested in 100%-200% more power. PS3 had 512MB RAM, PS4 has 8GB. That's a 1500% increase, that's what I want when I go to spend my $400. I'm not interested in spending $200 twice to get 2 rounds of minor improvements two years after the fact and be constantly gaming on low tier hardware with gimped versions of games within the same console eco-system.  

ok. let me put it this way.

this is happening cause we are at point where that generational leap no longer exists.

need proof?

just look at 6th>7th gen, then 7th to 8th gen.

things need to change when all you can get in the next generational leap are higher rez and framerates
