I agree totally with the bolded.  These systems are underpowered.  The real problem for both systems longevity is that the tablet/phone market has been doubling or tripling their power every year or less.  If these consoles are going to last 7+ years, smartphones will have eclipsed them by then.  This generation will be much shorter(4-5 yrs) due to the way under powered systems.  Even the PS4 is too weak.  What is more than likely to happen is that game designers/publishers will limit their games dramatically in 2-3 years because they won't want to waste resources for just the PC market.  3-4 years from now, there will be a number of tablets with processors and GPU's that rival the XB1/PS4.  Where will that leave the consoles?  Why buy a console when the same games will be playable from a tablet that you can take anywhere?  Sony/M$ didn't build this next gen with future proof in mind at all.

I think you could be potentially right - with a shorter gen.  Especially with pressure put on the console with the Steam box.  If it has a dramatic improvement in graphics – might do something.   If they make some super great reasons to switch over to their console it  That being said, I don't think anything yet from Valve (Steam) that will really effect the PSOnes yet.  So be ready for a long gen.

The thing is, even with more powerful GPU – developers would just make them do more calculations and bog things down again.  The bounce lighting, reflections etc. all take more and more amounts of horsepower to calculate.  

They could make all games 1080/60.  (Hey I wish all games were 4K with 120FPS with my mutant vision.)  But they would give up other fidelity.  They are hitting a balance.  Having watch 720p vs 1080p, it’s not like the difference between and Xbox and a 360 game (or PS2 vs PS3).  Sure higher is nice, but it’s not as important as some of the other things that make a game look great.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Tablets won't be matching consoles anytime soon because they have to meet a strict power requirement and much less for a smartphone. This generation is gonna be long because PCs are going to have issues about the latest state of the art technology. Each time that is spent to manufacture smaller transistors gets longer and longer therefore process node transitions are going to get longer and in total the high tech industry won't be brining out more powerful parts anytime soon. BTW the most powerful tablet comes in at around less than 100 gflops! 



Just say this game is a classic example of MoneyHatting... even more when the developer confess they were already developing the game on PC without a system on mind... Good luck to Xbone players, hope the game is a nice Zombie obliteration.

What do i think? I think that Sony fixed all the wrongs of ps3(price,architecture,dualshock,etc...) and maintained the goods(first party support,psn+,focus on hardcores),while microsoft adopted all the wrongs(price,kinect,hard to program,bad PR,180º,casual 'murican focus)

LOL yeah in your dreams the game was paid for and is published by MS.  Plus Ayane isn't a Capcom character so I'm hoping your being sarcastic.



They really should have named this console Xbox 720 :D

This is a Bayonetta 2 example. An IP no one wanted, one company stood up for it, funded and published it. This is no moneyhatting. No one wanted to make Dead Rising 3.
