lol. saying there may not be a PS5 doesn't mean it's gonna be streaming. Over the next 15 years we can see 5 PlayStation "4" revisions. each one being significantly more powerful than the previous one. But as I have said before, just probably never gonna see a console that is so far ahead that software made for it simply can't run on any previous hardware. Think of it this way, by the time FF18 comes along, you will probably still be able to play it on the same PS4 we have today but at 720p@30fps with all presets set to low. But you could have also bought the latest iteration of a PlayStation console around that time and be able to play the same game on there but at 4k@60fps. That console doesn't have to be called PlayStation 5. When Sony officially announces the Playstation neo.... if it's just called "PlayStation" then everything I am suspecting to happen would pretty much be confirmed. |
The fact that Sony, Microsoft or any other company can be so ignorant and brazen as to think they can just fuck with standard console cycles is proof enough that they're going to fail. Console gaming is not the smartphone industry. The Wii-U was Nintendo's example of this. They thought ignorantly "people love tablets, lets put a tablet in our controler=win". That is exactly the same thing as thinking "people spend 200-300 dollars every year or two on smart phone upgrades. Let's release a console upgrade every 2-3 years=win". It's foolish.
As soon as they start releasing upgraded consoles 2-3 years apart, it's game over for all of us. The fact that I can spot this so plainly this far off is ridiuclous because it means that the guys who are in charge, shouldn't be.
I can still remember the mighty fall of Sega... and this is all looking very similar.
