To be honest I could see it being 9th gen, and if it isn't what will be!? If 6TF native 4k gaming doesn't justify as 9th gen what ever will?

An exclusive library of games, like every generation previous.

I think the thing that did determine new game console generations; 'leaps' look to be a thing of the past. Before we had consoles get more powerful to give us more possibilities. Despite the Scorpio being 4.5 times more powerful than the Xbox One, it will simply offer a resolution upgrade without any new possibilities for games. If this is the case game console generations are dead as we know them. In previous generations it was differrent it was the jump from 2D to 3D, the jump to the possibility of bigger worlds, all things that gave games new possibilities to experience. We just aren't able to have jumps like this anymore. An exclusive library of games didn't dignify a new generation per say, it was that the hardware gave us something that gave games completely new possibilities that were previously unachievable. The only difference we are getting now is just in resolution something thats not going to change games, and give them more and new possibilitles.
