The_Rev Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I remember thinking the same about the Super Nintendo. And Mortal Kombat in the Arcade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 I'm still hoping for smell-o-vision for the next gen, and maybe a smoke machine peripheral for added ambience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 All I wish for the next gen is a game as good as Pro Evo 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted December 5, 2013 Administrator Share Posted December 5, 2013 There won't be a next gen. Not recognisable as a games console anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 5, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 5, 2013 All I wish for the next gen is a game as good as Pro Evo 6 Really? I thought Pro Evo 6 (I had it on 360) was the start of their decline. It was an awful game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Pro Evo 6 on the PS2 was fantastic. I never played it on the ps3 or xbox 360. You could argue Pro Evo 4 was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si. Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Any chance of getting one of these bad boys before Xmas now? If so, where? I have got a Xbox one pre ordered but after seeing how the reviews have panned out im coming back to Sony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 There won't be a next gen. Not recognisable as a games console anyway. What do you think we'll have instead? I really can't see them changing a winning formula too much. They'll have done away with disc drives, integrated even more multimedia functionality, more support for things like streaming to tablets, and possibly even move in to 'On Live' style streaming - they'll love that, anything to stop you owning what you've paid for - but I don't see the games console going anywhere.

hogso Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 So we're all agreed PS4 > XBONE Sony to tha death 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 In terms of hardware specs and first party developers, Sony has the advantage. But none of that will matter. The first system to have that killer game will see a surge in sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) That's true, and is why Titanfall is so important for XBONE. Never been a big fan of FPSs, but if ever something could get me interested it's big **** off mechs. After all, the genre needs a bit of a kick. For the PS4, I guess a proper trailer of Uncharted 4 would go a long way, but tbh I think SARPBC 2 could win the 'war' single handed...

Why will you need a console if everything is streaming? What value will it add? If I'm streaming my games, why will I want a console? MS have already shown their hand. They want to own your entire entertainment. Gaming will just be a (small) part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) I guess it gets in to semantics; what is a 'console'. I think there will still be an expensive, locked down box sold by Sony and Microsoft to allow you to play games, whether the gameplay is rendered locally or not. Where else will you stream to? Directly to smart TVs? I can't see it, TV manufacturers would want a cut of the profits. It could be a service offered to pretty much any internet capable device, but I don't think Sony and Microsoft want that either. The technology will be there, it is already in a lot of places, I just think Sony and Microsoft will try to extend their stranglehold on gaming to the entire living room, which is the direction MS is already going.

limpid Posted December 5, 2013 Administrator Share Posted December 5, 2013 Why do you think that only MS and Sony can dictate the future? If there's a future for consoles, it looks like Steam. Indie developers on open platforms. You don't need anything more than a dumb streaming box (like Now TV) to stream a game to a TV and they cost a tenner today. There'll be a market for specialist controllers and the like, but most casual gamers will use tablets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
