Next gen will have Xbox have the best specs at the most competitive price.........and PS fans will be stuck between their loyalties and their 2 generation-long culture of being prideful of having the best specs :P

I can wait. Console wars never end.


Long live competition.

Translation - I can't wait to skip this gen like a bad nightmare and hope to god that the next Xbox wins!  That way I can act like I used to in 2011 and 2012 instead of eating this humble pie!   Awe well, I still have English speaking countries to look forward to buying my box and they're all that matters anyways!!    :)

Well, being 2nd place 6 years faster then PS3 taking it isn't so bad ;)

Ill buy X1 for the Halos and that should do it for me. I'm low maintenance

(Why would I, or any english speaking gamer, REALLY care who buys more in Spain or whatever, aside from bragging online?)

LOL Well I had to throw in the English speaking part because anyone who has seen his posts in the past knows that's what he likes to do for moving goal posts.



The job ad probably is exactly the same as it were for the Xbox One.

LOL  I'm just having a laugh man. The console wars can be funny at times. I know you're a Halo fan but your Forza vs GT threads/comments from 2011 ran endlessly of back and forth! You and your meta scores. :)     

And low maintenance?   I can respect that. Our loonie is in the toilet!  lol

It's good that they're planning their next console early this time. But going public with talk like this will give the impression that they weren't happy with the Xbox One current specs, and that they're planning to throw another console earlier than usual and first than Sony.


Really? I love it 

Sony Already Thinking about PS5

The dust hasn't settled from the successful launch of the PS4 , but already the word PS5 is being tossed around by PlayStation Software Product Development Head Scott Rohde.
According to Rhodes Sony is already mulling over plans for the Playstation 5.

"We tend to start thinking about the development of the next system, surprisingly only a few years into the life cycle of the current gen," Rohde noted. The reasoning isn't just commerce, but also that creating a new console is the work of hundreds, if not thousands of people all over the world. "

Of course right now the PS5 is just a tick on the calender and a pipe dream. For now Sony will be concentrating on fine tuning the PS4 and making it the ultimate gaming machine that it is promising to be.

Nintendo Has Clear Ida of Next Console Beyond WiiU

It seems Nintendo is already looking to the future, as the hardware manufacturer revealed that it has a "clear idea" of what the Wii U's successor will look like.

In an investor Q&A, Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata stated that while the company is still focused on satisfying Wii U owners, it has already been thinking up ideas for its next home console.

Iwata said: "Once we launch a new platform, we naturally start to prepare for the next one. As it takes several years to develop a single platform, if you ask us whether we are preparing for our next system, then the correct response will be that we are always developing new hardware."

He continued: "I of course believe that launching new hardware will not produce good results unless we first make sure that those who have already purchased our platforms are satisfied.

"We will continue to work hard to ensure that consumers who already own our platforms are satisfied, and make sure that people will continue to see great value in our software, but I would like to say that we are preparing for our next hardware system, and in fact, we already have a clear idea to some extent about the direction our next hardware is going to take."

Iwata also spoke of how he believes that the Wii U's sales will eventually get stronger, and that though the company projects the console will only sell 3.6 million units this year, he thinks that it will eventually garner more attention as it progresses further into its life cycle. 

"We do not believe that this year's estimate of 3.6m units of Wii U hardware will be the peak of its lifecycle," Iwata said. "We would like to work hard to make sure that we give sufficient momentum to the system so that we can expect good results in and after the next fiscal year, too,"

Source? And clearly even if legit sony is not thinking about PS5 because the actual quote says they start thinking about the next gen "a few years" into the new gen. We're not at a few years yet, we're only at 8 months. So your point is?

And since Nintendo is clearly doing relatively worse than xb one it's hardly surprising they already have one eye on gen 9.
