Prepare for one of the Best Generations of Gaming

"The cynics amongst you will immediately laugh off the title of this article, particularly if you are one of the older gamers. How on Earth can modern gaming even compare to the purity, grace and innovative experiences of old, when gaming wasn’t asphyxiated by greedy corporate practice, a supposed dilution of the essence of gaming by way of exploitative measures and…shit like Fortnite. To that I say nay, oh jaded gamer. Whilst we have seen our fair share of successes and failures this generation, I truly believe the next generation will herald one of the best gaming experiences out there. Don’t believe me? Watch our video below and tell me with a straight face that it didn’t do anything to get you hyped. "

Gaz discusses why the next-gen could be the best generation of gaming.

I have no doubt that the PS5 just like the previous PS series before it, will deliver an amazing generation with highly rated exclusives and new IPs. New standards shall be set.

For me, it is the PS5 that will alter gaming in a manner we have not seen in some time. We did not witness it with the current generation. Current and past generations have made the focus of innovation mostly a graphics equation. No one fundamentally reshaped the gaming experience. Higher resolution and faster framerates have their degree of importance. But the titles which to this day remain with me are not something I remember due to my uttering, "Oh wow I can't forget that game because it was 4K."

Putting audio on equal footing with the graphical component, by introducing a new technology enhancing how we physically interact with a title, and shifting our entire concept of how we enter and move through a game world Sony is drastically morphing the possibilities.

Man I'm so hyped for next gen. Sony leveraging their strength in audio fidelity has me looking at new hi-fi equipment to make the most of it. I have never really gamed on consoles using headphone (I used to on PC) but i am really considering investing in some quality headphones. Any suggestions for ones that will work on both PS and XB?

@Darth

I love my system but headphones are where it's at. I still use my Sennheiser 280 pro and it's still great after years of use. Shoot at this point I've had these things for almost 10 years 😳🤔😬

[Wasabi]

Well written article that makes some great points, The quality of the video edit is excellent, KAIN Poduction does good work.

Hyped for next gen.

[poleerollee]

what? no Hell Blade footage?

[Mooncake]

I can't say I care for the baiting opinion piece, but the video is pretty fricking awesome. Next-gen can't come soon enough!

[Tacoboto]

From the first parties, we know that both are pushing new IP (Avowed, Everwild, Returnal). Both are accepting that established IPs need time before being rushed out (GT7, Forza), even when they demo well (R&C), and especially when they don't (Halo). And both want us to know our favorite franchises are coming back (Horizon, Fable).

The reasons for buying one may not apply to the other. And that's all fine because, even with Switch, they all offer unique experiences

[isarai]

That's what i dont think a lot of people are fully grasping here. This is the biggest leap we've seen in a while, probably since the SD>HD transition. The thing is the biggest leaps are not in how things look on the surface but how things react, how they're designed, how dynamic things are, how dense details can be, and how fast they load.

It's something that only shows with extended gameplay, which haven't seen much of besides Ratchet and Clank, the tech demo and halo.

Gonna be interesting for sure

[Einhander1971]

I have no doubt:)

[airshiraz]

im ready

[Gamist2dot0]

This only issue I have with this video is the use of CG.

[Positivelypositive]

M$ just needs to become like sega and publish their famous first party games on every platform...

[Thundercat77]

"famous" 🤔

[Skuletor]

Halo, Gears, Forza

[CDbiggen]

Hah

[Sunny12345]

Can't wait for next gen. Imagine new god of war, new ff, new ips from aaa/indie studios. So much potential. As a gamer playing since ps1, Sony doesn't disappoint.

[victorMaje]

I have absolutely no doubt PS5 is about to deliver something truly remarkable in terms of gameplay experience.

Buckle up gamers, we’re in for an amazing ride.
I can’t wait to get my hands on that controller, I can’t wait to experience the next leap, I can’t wait to see what PS5 is about to make me discover, I can’t wait to suspend my disbelief & wander in wonders.

[Levii_92]

I’m excited as hell man .. things are looking awesome for the Ps5. I’m much more excited for the upcoming gen then i was excited for this one when it started. I just hope they nail the BC for the ps5.

[TeamIcoFan]

https://www.youtube.com/wat... If this is just a taste of what we can expect from next gen, we're in for a treat!

[darthv72]

that was some impressive visuals.

[Majin-vegeta]

*Looks at PS history*🤷

[BillyG0AT]

I'm most looking forward to the immersive story experiences with all the bells and whisltes of a high end gaming PC and more.

[Abnor_Mal]

Greatness awaits us next gen.

Awesome video.

[Artemidorus]

Best generation of microtransactions more like.

[anast]

Bro

[saint_seya]

Damn, really nice editing, this kind of video gets me more exited than actually the official ones xD

[chicken_in_the_corn]

I'll beleive it when I see it. Can't be any worse than this gen though. This gen was the worst by far

[AuraAbjure]

I think indie games might be where it's at. I know PS5 Sony exclusives will be great too tho.

[CantThinkOfAUsername]

Oh yes, nothing like cinematics and cutscenes to get me hyped...

Sick video editing, though, not gonna lie.

[Monkeycan8]

I can feel it.

[Rimeskeem]

Honestly, Ray Tracing is nice, better graphic fidelity is nice, but the sound design that I can see Sony devs doing will likely be the big factor for me.

[BenRC01]

Yet to see any evidence, but sure why not.

[Edito]

What an amazing montage... excited for next gen :-)

[ILostMyMind]

Nice video, bro.

[Gamerking82]

yep in about 3 years when the decent games for next gen roll in.
