Please tell me this is a joke

I remember when Microsoft and sony both said this console generation was going to last 10-15 years

Man am I glad I didnt fall for the console hype

Nope, it's real.

Ps4 fanboys will cry about bloodborne
Xbone faggots will scream about halo 5 and killer instinct
WiiU fags can only talk about bayonetta 2, the metroid prime trilogy and the ever mediocre splatoon.

Except nintendo never did that, nor sony, nor microsoft. Y'know the ones still in business.

None of them were upgrades, the only console that is going to have a full 5 year run is the Wii U. 2012-2017

There's a difference between a device and releasing an entirely upgraded console with a full price tag/new features that might change the entire gen and lock out older users.

You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.
>>
>console development becomes similar to PC with tons of fucking specs to develop for down the line

I wonder if the market can sustain this generation with hardware upgrades in a short time idea.

Some people like how consoles have a long shelf life, being used for 5~ years and such.
>>
>>336380640
I'd rather 10 years of devs getting used to the systems so they can make outdated looking games with much much deeper gameplay and more depth any day.

I have a PC for the grafix games anyway.
>>
>>336379765
It will. They never told you gen 8 was going to have like 5 refreshes.

8.1
8.2
8.3
8.4
8.5

>I'd rather 10 years of devs getting used to the systems so they can make outdated looking games with much much deeper gameplay and more depth any day.

Except your concept has no basis in reality? The 7th gen lasted for too long and it only got stagnant gameplay wise. The boom of small budget games was more important than the length of the gen.
>>
>>336380846
Because modern children on /v/ have no idea what they want in vidya.
They would rather play PC games (Better optimization) but buy a console for some fucking reason.

Nowadays consoles are nothing but watered down multiplatform boxes with 1-2 redeemable exclusives

Funny how people always throw a bitchfit when they do just that.
>>
>>336381176
the 8th gen shows no improvement gameplay wise.

fuck, we didnt see actual gameplay improvement through the whole 7th gen.

game design peaked with the PS2, now everything is just clones of games from that time.
>>
>>336380030
There has never been a mid-generation hardware upgrade anywhere near the levels we're look at this generation, don't be a pedantic faggot.

Unless you're Sega but that shit killed their console business entirely.
>>
>>336381257
Too bad fallout 4 plays outdated and stripped down too.
>>
>>336381176
>Only got stagnant gameplaywise
Are you serious? The reason the PS3 continued to sell is because games continued to come out for it. It got more Sony/Japanese quality support in the last two years than its entire early lifespan.

The Xbox was completely opposite but that is because Microsoft can't make good games for shit.
>>
>>336380030
Literally when did they ever upgrade their hardware?
I can only think of the top loader NES and the Genesis 2/3. But those weren't upgrades.
>>
You're going to buy the PS4.5, good goy right? Only $600! Come on, we'll stop supporting the PS4 anyway!
>>
>>336381336
That's because the big money part of the industry is creatively bankrupt. If your idea of needing time to make good games was true, there wouldn't be the notion of good launch titles.

I think early 7th gen games had a bit of uniqueness to them. There were definitely less games that continued gameplay ideas presented in the 6th gen, but they weren't completely abolished.
>>
>>336381257
I was talking more about games designed for the system than multiplats that should've stay on PC.

People that are mad about Fallout 4 are because consoles caused it to be a downgrade in graphics. Ironically no one fucking realizes Bethesda cannot and has never been able to do shit with graphical quality anyway.

Children want to play with friends. Children's parents don't want to spend half their rent so their kid can play on pc
>>
>>336381583
And yet here we are. With new consoles every 3-4 years. Easily more expensive than getting a mid range PC that can run most games on high, that look much much better than modern consoles. Even with Prebuild PCs
>>
>>336381583
It's a hell of a lot cheaper and easier to play games online on a computer.
>>
>>336381698
If all my friends have a PS4 I'm going to buy a PS4. If all my friends have an Xbox I'm going to buy an xbox. Most kids enjoy hanging out with friends also playing games with friends. Consoles are for normies and gaming is as normie as it gets now.

I'm sorry you didn't have friends growing up

why do people expect from bethesda games, really? Played Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim, I've skipped Fallout games because I remember hearing FO3 was just "Oblivion with guns" and I couldn't stand that copypasted dungeons piece of trash.

They're just not well done? Their combat is just awful, animations and dialogue aren't so well done either, overall those Bethesda games just strike me as something mediocre overall that makes me baffled how popular they are.

and don't say mods, because all I see are people modding for waifufaggotry, I don't see anyone modding combat that is half as good as something such as Warband or such.

>>336382349
I agree. Morrowind was probably the only one I enjoyed, and that was only because the world was so different from anything I had seen in fantasy. That it was enjoyable to explore and do shit in.

Otherwise they have been mediocre games that let you do whatever you want, but have shitty combat, mediocre characters, and bland forgettable graphics coupled with the worst character models.

Are you dumb? Wiiu had the most and best exclusive in this generation.

It isn't as long you hide your powerlevel outside of 4chan.

>>336383704
And really, the original Gameboy lasted like 10 years before the Color came out, which lasted an additional 5 years or so, and both had tons of great games on them.
