BBC takes a look at how the developers today take advantage of the new hardwares.
The term next-generation is used a lot in the video games industry but what does it actually mean? How are developers taking advantage of new gaming hardware and what are the challenges and next steps for the industry?

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
Not every Halo game has been a banger, but the franchise still has a raft of the greatest games of all time.
Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.
Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
Starting with PS3 then Xbox-360 we have two screenshots of Timeshift.
For me nextgen is High defenition, Wii is not nextgen. Ps3 and xbox360 are the only ones that are pushing the limits of what have been seen on consoles.
Its really exciting to be a part of the gaming scene right now. There is going to be some amazing things in store for us gamers in the future.
A next generation game is a game that will be sold in the NEXT generation of consoles, whenever that will be. Is it really that difficult to understand?
Oooooh, I get it, this is the slang definition of the term "next gen". I thought we were already over that.
People look forward to next-gen consoles offering these possibilities because the hardware expands the creativity of the developer to break boundaries on what's been "done before".
HOWEVER
Too often, the bottom line ($) means it's safer to create sequels with better graphics than INVENT a new game that wasn't possible before. Katamari Damacy, Crush, and Portal are great examples of "next-gen" concepts that succeed independant of "next-gen" hardware.
