I've chosen a few fine cutlets to get you started with. https://kotaku.com/maybe-just-delay-next-gen-already-1844859500 "My default programming during these times tells me to “keep calm and carry on” but every time I remember that two of the biggest video game companies are in a months-long marketing duel to be the place where the most people play Call of Duty for the 16th year in a row, the programming crashes. 2020 feels like a whole lot of things, but the start of a new cycle of more powerful gaming hardware is not one of them." "For starters, less than three months out, neither Microsoft nor Sony has really demonstrated why we should all be getting excited about shelling out something like two week’s worth of minimum wages for a new plastic brick to sit beside our TVs. Better load times? More detailed graphics?" "I see incremental improvements in the dozens of trailers both companies have shared, but nothing that feels striking or completely new. The Switch launch didn’t do that either, but it also had Breath of the Wild, and I still don’t see a Breath of the Wild." What are your thoughts about this surreal time for a Next Gen Launch?

I don't really think the last gen launch was that amazing either. And even the gen before wasn't really amazing IMO. What were the flagship games last time around? Like... Ryse, Knack, and Infamous SS? This is to me kind of par for the course for new systems.
