Gamesradar- The Wii U's launch marks the transition out of the longest console generation in gaming's history. Yes, even if you think Nintendo is just playing HD catch-up, the Wii U is the beginning of the eighth generation of consoles--Wikipedia says so! Traditionally, the advancement in technology from one generation to the next led to enormous gains in visual quality, which, software aside, was often the marketing focus of any console. Advertisements would scream "look how great the pictures look on this thing!" and kids would point, jaws unhinged, and proclaim how "real" pixelated water was.
So we got to thinking: What can we really expect from games a few years down the road? Surely they'll look better--but will the increase be as dramatic as it had been in generations past?
Game Rant chats with the creator of No More Heroes about who he would like to see play the role of Travis Touchdown in a live-action adaptation.
Actually Ryan Gosling makes a ton of sense.
Edit: If this can be done in a Scott Pilgrim movie kind of way that would be dope.
Super Mario Maker's last level has been beaten, after Trimming the Herbs was revealed to be totally bogus.
A new rumor suggests the next Xbox console is currently being tested by developers in South Korea.
If true, hopefully a fully fledged next gen console and not some unnecessary mid gen refresh system.
It could be that rumored Xbox portable, who knows
Could be the refresh console perhaps? I doubt it'll be the new console. Might be the portable rumored device.
Regardless the fact we're talking about new hardware already is absolutely pathetic. Barely any current gen stuff out and the stuff that is out or coming is at 30 fps or doesn't, doesn't look current gen and what have you.
All we're doing is chasing power and not creating the games to harness said power.
Worse generation so far easily.
It was reliably leaked just a month ago that MS hadn't signed contracts for next gen till literally weeks ago- the same leakers that correctly leaked that hi fi rush and pentiment and sea of thieves were going to ps5. So this is very very very unlikely- if not impossible. Also it's way too early....
game improvements all around with other console features. next gen consoles the xbox 720 and ps4 will be a lot more powerful than the xbox 360 and ps3. theyll be able to create more realistic environments, and improve upon gameplay elements with smarter npcs and all sorts which will lead to better immersion in games. physics, animations, sound, controller feed back, 3d, faster multitasking, graphics etc will be improved.
just give us some sort of real time ray-tracing, maybe is too much to ask but is not bad having a dream once in while ;)
It already started you idiot.
We can expect Sony to keep bringing great exclusives and value for our entertainment. Long live play.
Hopefully better gameplay from all genres. I dont expect a huge graphic leap. And less shooters cause there was a TON of shooters this gen.
