it will be big if the developers can fully utilize those powerful machines.

Xof4102d ago

Most devs don't "fully utilize" any hardware.

Which is why I'm not at all eager for the new generation. I'd rather see more polished mechanics in games, than games that rely on new tech to sell.

Some of you guys say fully utulize like that means that the games that are made with a next gen consoles will be 1 million steps ahead of what we have now.

Fact of the matter is that we have only begun to see what we can do with this medium and we will look at this next gen like it was the stone age in 15 years.

I just want good game that utilise the hardware well and that push this amazing industry forward. Innovation > Story telling > Graphics.

^^Get a Vita. Its innovating more than any dedicated gaming console at the moment.

NameRemoved00174101d ago

Vita is less powerful than new phones already.

Not if naughty dog and guerrilla games has to do with it , they will show the leap.

sony santa monica ?! Quantum dream ?! sucker punch ?! media molecule ?! 343 ?!

BullyMangler4101d ago

Nintendo is laughing at what fan-boys have yet to realize .
well maybe not laughing, but haaa!

Tei7774101d ago

The leap between the ps2 to ps3/360 was f-ing huge!!! It doesn't need to be as big for it to still be huge leap over what we currently have.

Montrealien4101d ago

the only reason it seemed as huge as it was is because of the higher resolution available on the televisions.

Says the guy who never made a console game.

Montrealien4101d ago (Edited 4101d ago )

Chris Roberts? oh right, the guy that made Wing commander 3 and 4 on PC and PS1.

Are you, and the 17+ people who agree with you suggesting that a guy that has been in the industry since the 80s, who lived the ultimate highs to the ultimate lows of it, can't have a worthy opinion on the matter?

Gildarts4101d ago

Wow so he did make a Console game.. 18 years ago..

Well I guess they couldn't have done so within the last two decades working on the game so probably it'll take another two decades
