Why The Next Gen Will Suck

Chris Lohr: Five months from now, it’ll be time for E3. As with many other people out there, I’m looking forward to it. I always do. This year is going to be great though. Most likely, we will see two new consoles. There’s also a possibility of a third coming in from Valve. Aside from the coming influx of posts online saying “599$ lel” and “remember rrod m$?” new consoles should be a great thing. The bad part?

They’re all going to suck.

"Why" did you fail with that horrible-ass title?

Don't get mad at others for calling out your flamebait title.

DO BETTER, OR DON'T BOTHER.

Kotaku's enough.

khowat4114d ago

That article actually made sense the last part made me really optimistic. Let's stop worrying about the consoles and go back to worrying about the games

animegamingnerd4114d ago

if publishers continue their actions that they have been doing this gen then yes

because some of us will actually click on your link to be disappointed when they find out you can see in to the future, no more than they themselves can.

And people say it's all fake because Sony haven't said anything 😂 conveniently forget the PS4 Pro was only announced 2 months before release.

BeHunted1d 20h ago

It's fake. There's no factual evidence other than his own made up specs.

Hereandthere1d 19h ago

What were the specks Sony was afraid of showing?

Shikoku1d 19h ago (Edited 1d 19h ago )

Digital foundry put a video out saying what he leaked was exactly what they also knew about the PS5 PRO. So no it's not just stuff he made up

Babadook71d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

If it’s fake what copyright does MLID infringe upon?

😂

andy851d 16h ago

Aye because they'd go to the effort of copyright claiming it if it didn't exist 🙃😂 you'd have to be a special kind to be thinking its not a thing by now

Cacabunga1d 15h ago

They need to reveal it with uncharted killzone or a heavy hitter like this

Ironmike1d 15h ago (Edited 1d 15h ago )

U mean the specs that we'll established digital foundry which said these are the actual specs published a video on 2 weeks ago I mean they are only one of most trusted sites for tech information but they just made up a video for the sake of it

Christopher1d 1h ago

I would love for it all to be fake, but lots of people are saying they've seen/heard the same thing. But, man, we 100% don't need mid-gen upgrades when we're failing hard to optimize current hardware.

if I recall Sony lowered sales expectations for PS5 earlier this year. if that is the case we won't hear anything about a Pro until next year or shortly before/when it's dropping. After all, if the Pro was dropping this year/fiscal year they wouldn't have lowered expectations.

As for squashing rumors. Yeah, shit like this prevents potential buyers from adopting now, just like slim rumors in the past. It only makes sense to keep things under wraps from a business perspective. Despite living in a technological age of unfettered access to information we don't need to know whats going on behind closed doors be that at Sony, Nintendo, MS, or amongst any development studios. When the steak is done we shall feast.

JackBNimble20h ago

By the time games are actually made to take advantage of the pro spec's the ps6 will be released or close to it.

jznrpg1d 19h ago (Edited 1d 19h ago )

Just announce it already! I want to preorder one asap. But in reality they don’t want to lessen PS5 sales until Pro is ready to launch so I understand the business part of it. September is probably when they announce it with an early November launch like the PS4 Pro

Ironmike1d 15h ago

Pro won't lessen sales sames ps4 pro never and the ps4 pro was more relevant at the time cos move to 4k this not needed

RaidenBlack1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

Yea, my brother got his PS4 (coz of a good deal) after the PS4 Pro's release.

darthv721d 5h ago

^^same here. I got a base 4 for only $100 off a guy who bought the Pro. then a few months later I found a guy on craigslist selling a pro for $100 because it was left behind by his former roommate who moved out. That was the beginning of my obsession to buy up the different variants of the PS4 that were released.

As of now I am really only missing the 500m one and the gold slim but otherwise I have pretty much all the other retail ones. https://consolevariations.c...

BoneMagnus1d 3h ago

@darth - Nice collection!

crazyCoconuts22h ago

Anyone with 4K that appreciates 60fps is gonna disagree about it not being needed.
DLSS is a god send for Nvidia, and there's been nothing like it for AMD...yet ...

They will announce it around E3 timeframe about May-June whenever they do a showcase for the year.

neutralgamer19921d 19h ago

Just announce it this thing will sell well

Ironmike1d 15h ago (Edited 1d 15h ago )

I don't think it will pll still haven't seen the potential of ps5 yet

Cacabunga1d 1h ago

agreed, but it might sell if they announce some 1st party games to lead the way. if people see the difference with the base version they can move on. for my sake I am still gaming mainly on PS4 (still not finished with RDR2 due to lack of gaming time). I have a huge backlog on PS5 I am hoping to get into.

mark3214uk1d 10h ago

why? game makers havnt even come close to maxing out current spec yet, were getting al lthese new TFlops and game maker are making crappy remakes not worthy of the ps3

Minute Man 7211d 5h ago

The guts of the 5 and X are 5 years old

fr0sty23h ago

People keep saying that, yet we still have games running at near HD resolutions, 30fps, and ray tracing features turned off.

PRIMORDUS1d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

I would take that video and upload a torrent of it, fuck that copyright bullshit. If your going to do something that has a chance of being taken down, make a torrent first share it. Then Sony or any other company is helpless and you can laugh in their faces, taunting them to try to take it down 🤣

LoveSpuds1d 9h ago

With kind of analysis and advice, you could be a lawyer for Trump!🤣

tronyx121d 9h ago

As much as the PS4 Pro didn't represent a major % in the playerbase, announcing a 'better' model will hinder sales from the 'base' model. They are right, business-wise.
