They seriously need to push the GPU in the next gen to allow breathing room for developers if they are going to be on the market for another 10 years. The 6000 AMD cards won't cut it, even if console developers can get more out of the chips than they can on PC off the bat. I wouldn't mind a new controller though. Everyone is too afraid of change.
They thought it was a good idea to begin with, and to market it, so they should stick to their guns, whatever they get thrown back at them in my opinion. Why try and back pedal?
It's not just in graphics where the next gen will help. Physics engines will take a much bigger leap. Take for example car racing games. I think the next gen is where we will have realistic damage to a point manufacturers shouldn't have an issue allowing it. But when it comes to some games, sure, graphics are not important, but other games like racing games as I mentioned, and perhaps FPS shooters tend to warrant a graphics upgrade
In my opinion, if games were bought whilst in someones home, I don't see why the next person who picks up the console shouldn't be able to download the games he/she owned free of charge, since they are effectively already paid for...
i.e If you sell a console, you also sell off the games with it. Surely this is the same thing, and shouldn't really be frowned upon, even though it will be?
@raazter94 @DomaineStickem I play the odd game (I completed Halo 4 last night), but I don't play online, and never have. I've played the Single Player of Halo 4, and now I'm happy. I won't ever put it in again to play the multiplayer.
The only time I'm against multiplayer in games is when it begins to drown the main focus of the game, which should always be single player in my opinion, unless a game is specifically made to be multiplayer only.
@kerrman Trust me when I say if this game wasn't made by Naughty Dog, it would be a down point for the series, multi-platform or not. Naughty Dog are an amazing developer and one of my favourites, and I wouldn't want this game passed over for anything
