The next generation of consoles about to arrive under your TV

IT’S a bit early in the year to talk about saving your money. But seriously, start saving your money.

This year is going to be an expensive one for video game lovers — although for all the right reasons.

I've saved enough for one without being economically stupid. still, I think I'm likely to wait a year after release to let the bugs and dust settle. So I still have awhile, good thing I have the likes of skyrim and other games to keep me busy.

"Can gaming get any more realistic than it is now? Yes. Xbox will be a beast under the hood, wth four core processors fuelling the fun. In layman’s terms that means it will make the many of the current high-end PCs look like the lowest-end PC"

This is my favourite part of the whole thing. Absolute madness and speculation with zero sources or research.

Edit: Just had to quote this to you guys to so you get an idea of the quality journalism you are looking at to avoid getting them a hit.

"Perhaps more exciting is some of the virtual reality stuff proposed. Kinect 2.0 will be built into the main system and promises four-player recognition and the sort of sensitivity that can detect the smallest finger movement".

Wigriff4123d ago

From all the disagrees, it looks like people are directing quite a bit of "finger movement" in your general direction over your comment. heh.

For the record, I didn't disagree. The Sun is an absolutely atrocious, abomination of a publication, and Lee Price is a tool.

"In layman’s terms that means it will make the many of the current high-end PCs look like the lowest-end PC"

In layman's terms this 'journalist' is a moron.

Im more curious how the ps4 look more than anything. SEXY!!!!!!!!!

Goodfella784123d ago

Couldn"t of put it better myself exactly what im gonna do,especially seeing as ive just forked out 220 quid for my 500 gig super slim im also wanting to see what steam has to offer on top of the next ps and nextbox,it will seem kinda strange next gen with gabe and his posse entering the console arena,but exciting non the less......

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4123d ago (Edited 4123d ago )

Will have the most new and awsome looking exclusives & will be supported the longest of any of the 3 consoles I would put $200 on it.

Kevin ButIer4123d ago

Oh man, PS4 can be huge... please Sony... don't mess it up!

SolidStoner4123d ago

people who wants specific features for PS4 should go to official sony website forum and type it there, if you start a bright idea, people will be all around it, in the end Sony could use something "YOU" requested....

Ares84HU4123d ago

I'd get a PS4 on day one without a question but I just refuse to stand in those long lines again. I did it with the PS3 and it was a nightmare. Something I will never do in my entire life again.

But if I get a chance, I will buy a PS4 day one. Money is not an issue at all.

horndog4123d ago

Lol you lined up to get a ps3??? Really? Are you being sarcastic? Dude they had pyramids of ps3's everywhere that sat there for a long long time. Well.the good news is that it was only you in the line up.so you didnt wait long lol

jivah4123d ago

In ny it was sold out everywhere. so these mountains of ps3s must have been in the middle of the nevada desert cause there were none here. And when they did get a shipment mom and pop store sold em for around 800 - a grand and alot of places sold the games first week for like 80 90 a pop.

Ares84HU4123d ago

I don't know where you have seen those "pyramids of ps3s" but here in NYC it was sold out for months. In the line there was around a 1000 people plus. I was at the Sony Plaza here in Manhattan. But if I didn't do that I wouldn't have been able to get a PS3 for at least 4-5 months here in the city and online prices were just crazy at $1000-$5000.

ABizzel14123d ago

Wow, this article just wow. Professionalism out the window, regarding specs. and how they should compare to PC's. At least he's sounds excited I guess.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4123d ago

No sources for any of those claims...

Tales of Kenzera: Zau Review - Spirit Over Substance - Game Informer

Tales of Kenzera: Zau conveys its somber themes with nuance and passion. It's just a shame the gameplay doesn't always match those highs.

I fully expect to see this game at Xbox Showcase this year.

Tacoboto18h ago

Me too.

I expect Hellblade 2 to be the start of a consistent stream of UE5 XGS titles. It's basically their default engine, save for ForzaTech and the proprietary engines in use at Activision and Bethesda.

RaidenBlack13m ago

Really looking forward to seeing the Forzatech based Fable. Playground games has had a great track record with the Horizon series, so lets see.

purple10118h ago

I fully expected to see it released about 3 year ago, but each to their own

Lightning7716h ago(Edited 16h ago)

There's no way it would release in 2021 especially when it was announced at the VGA's 2020.

purple10115h ago

@lightning, that’s when the first trailer was shown, but it was known to be in development much earlier and Xbox fans were tooting it to be released years ago, the initiative studio formed in 2018, and to my knowledge have not released a game

That’s 6 years and all you got is a trailer and some empty promises
Good one from Microsoft, yet again.

Lightning7713h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Such is game development, long developmental cycles is one of the big black eyes of the industry. I don't see you complaining about Wolverine that got announced in 2021, releasing in 2026 and only got one trailer.

purple1015h ago

@ lightning
Nice try but for one, 2021 - 2025 would only be 5 years not 6,

And for two insomniac have developed multiple games or have multiple games in development over that time, and the initiative only have the 1 game to be concerned with

For three, we all know the quality Wolverine will be and although I do hope perfect dark is good, it’s unlikely to be as good as insomniacs proven track record

Can you define “see”? Microsofts notorious for showing CGI movies as substitution for gameplay.

z2g3m ago

Agreed. They know they gotta come out swinging on this one. I’m pretty excited for it. Franchise is near and dear to me.

Einhander19722h ago

Good thing they got Crystal Dynamics to make it, at least they know how to make a game that has 60 fps.

z2g5m ago

Oh good. That should spare us from 3 months of pointless internet trolling drama

ravens523m ago

Dope. Just curious. Is this a "Xbox win" or "uggh REMAKE"? Or that only applies to Sony remakes?

SpacedDuck0m ago

Love how Microsoft had this big new flash studio called The Imitative who were going to make this game and then everyone started quitting and they had to outsource it to CD.

Microsoft needs to figure out their crap, too many studios being run poorly.
