The thing many seem to overlook is the state Sony is in right now. Sony is close to it’s last rope, it seems. So the question that comes to mind is will Sony succeed and keep on living so we can see more PS generations. It would be bad if all there is is only MS or Nintendo. Don’t tell me Google is going to jump in.
😆 On the technical side the PS4 exactly meets the technical level predicted, so it’s a bit less than actual current technology level. And yet it seems to have 50% more graphic power than the last Xbox760 info.
The consoles don’t look that attractive compared to PCs. Their success and future is really questionable here. If you consider 4k tv, somewhere in 5-6 years games will be technically playable . The difference or advantage of consoles will shrink even more. Even if things change over to tablets the requirements will be the same (perhaps a bit lagging behind, though). So it comes down to just a change of device.
On the other side cloud-gaming -> matrix….
You seem to forget that Nintendo and Microsoft are in the same boat gaming-wise. Look at how well the launch for the WiiU went, along with how well its current library is. Same for the 3DS- rocky launch, but it’s picking up for sure.
On Microsoft’s side- monthly subscriptions for not just the online play, but also for the system itself? Screw that. Even a coworker of mine’s had enough and he’s trading in his Xbox 360 for a PS3 (the God of War one coming out soon, BTW). Also on Microsoft’s side- sure, they’ve got exclusive first-dibs on some online content before the other guys and a couple of hot IPs like Halo and Gears of War… but what else? Really guys… they’ve got jack for s%@# on the First Party Intellectual Properties. Nintendo’s got that market cornered with their line-up of classic and new characters, while Sony’s got a well-rounded mix of peeps both First-Party AND Third-Party.
