NowGamer: "As the games industry diversifies, the importance of dedicated consoles decreases. At least according to Peter Molyneux and Ian Livingstone.
As we're all getting excited about next-gen consoles, whether that's the PS4 or the next Xbox, it seems not all developers are anticipating them quite as much as the rest of us."
A third game in the Falconeer series has been announced as the second, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles, launches.
While there’s a lot to love about modern video games, there is one trend — particularly in the AAA space — that tends to grate: their length.
Games are coming out with too much fluff and side activities that are horribly dull. That's my main issue with all these open world games. Open world should be about exploration, discovery and wonder, not have some stupid 10s or 100s of boring activities spread throughout.
Hopefully Hercule will at least get his jetpack.
PS4 Is already the only must have gadget I'll be getting, Honestly I cant even think of anything else that I would want besides a next gen console.
250 million current gen gamers say 'We'll see.'
Peter Molyneux and Ian Livingstone don't know what they're talking about. I haven't ever seen so much excitement for new consoles. And aren't current sales of PS360 considerably higher than previous gens (minus PS2 of course)? Doesn't that show that people are still plenty interested in console gaming?
I would debate that game consoles were never 'must have gadgets' to begin with. They aren't essential to everyday life, they are luxury items. I would say interest in these things is relative. More consoles are being sold, but there is also a larger market available to tap into than previous generations.
Will you see the PS4 sell 75 million consoles? Hard to tell at this point, but there is definitely anticipation for what the next round of machines will bring.
