The problem with shorter console cycles is that a lot of developers would only make about one or two games before moving on to the next hardware. It takes about 1-2 years to develop a AAA game. That manes there's 1-2 chances to really push the hardware because if you can't maximize it, then there's little point in having the power.
This could be really good or really bad. There are things that sound good like free-to-play games and the hackable piece which sounds like it might be upgradeable to a degree.
What sounds bad is the hackable part too as this could affect online play in various ways--especially if the software is affected by the hardware.
@NolanB No need to be elitist. I didn't know Heihachi's wave dash move was called a "Wavedash." It sounded like it was game wide inclusion which is what I was referring to because "Wavedashing" as an entire game-wide technique came out of Melee--every character can do it. Technically, MvC2 had a form of it also. Don't know if I'm making sense.
