Skyrim was the last game.

Next would be the Yakuza games. But that's more in the 60-70 hour range.

I doubt I'll put another 100 plus in another game

The hardware was much better this gen, along with the online services and UI for the consoles.

The only thing the previous gen had was more unique games from Big Publishers. Loved me some Dante's Inferno and Vanquish

I'm going to wait a couple of years before getting a PS5. There's a ton of PS4 games I haven't played yet, so there's plenty to keep me entertained.

Also, I'm gonna get a special edition console. I've never gotten one before, I've always bought the stock console, plain black PS4 for example. So if there's a red, white, green, or specific game themed console next gen I'm going for it.

@Pedro: I'm 3/4 or more through the game and I don't think I'll finish it. Heck I might even trade it in.

The controls are just too awkward.

How does an outage... even one that lasted that long.... compare at all to mass hardware failures? I had friends that went through 4 X360s! That's horrible.

Exactly.

The Xbox 360 hardware was a joke! So much so I think with the Xbox Series X MS took notice.

Heck with the XSX MS is touting the air flow design! I guarantee MS did some focus groups on the Xbox brand during this generation I bet they got a lot of negative feedback regarding hardware reliability....stemming from the 360

@vfighter:

Individual anecdotes do not refute statistical trend. Today's CD sales in the US is less than 6% of what it was in 2000. In 2015, less than a quarter of all music sales in the US was on physical media.

It took a while for floppy disks to fade into irrelevance too. You can still buy USB floppy drives to this day, but no sane person would ever claim they are commercially relevant. The CD is following a similar trend.

But hey, maybe something magic will suddenly happen and stop these market trends from happening further, right? Any day now...

For physical games there will always be an enthusiast market. Heck music studios even started producing new VINYL RECORDS again because there was an enthusiast market for it.

It's going to be the same for video games. Playing a game on the original cart on original hardware will be a different experience than just buying it off a digital store, and the game being emulated to play on different hardware.

There's even people doing this with PC games; going back and building PC riggs from the 90's and early 2000's to play older PC games BECAUSE that's how the games were meant to be played; and for them to get the real experience of that game they need the intended hardware for that game to run on (The biggest thing being Sound cards from that era of PC gaming)
