This whole thing isn't impressive enough for me. I don't want an Xbox One 2.0. I want the next generation machine that plays games Xbox One/X can't even handle.

People are entitled to whatever they want to be interested in but I just don't understand dropping hundreds of dollars on a console that plays the same games a console they currently have plays. Yeah, this will play them in sightly sharper quality with a little bump here or there... but really? Just not worth it to me.

I wonder when we'll see a true 9th generation machine? Ever?

The world we live in, now. People buy TVs to watch the same shows. New phones to run the same apps. New consoles to play the same games.

Some of that may be true but PS4 and Switch disprove the idea that console gaming must fall to the same fate. Neither of those two machines plays the same games as their predecessors and both are selling or have sold like crazy. 

Microsoft is trying to artificially change the console business. We'll see if it works or pays off. Either way, I refuse and will hold off until true next generation machines come out.
