The next Xbox and the next PlayStation won't be released until 2014, if Microsoft and Sony have their way, industry sources tell Kotaku.
The Xbox brand has done a lot of good over the years, but their various blunders are pretty wild to look back on in their magnitude.
Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)
Phil Spencer is the worst that has happened to Xbox.
They built a respectable brand up to Xbox one. Then this guy took over and things became a joke
Really good video.
I remember the days with RRoD was big news on here, N4G.
Microsoft had it turbulence number of years.
Looking at the success of Sea of Thieves despite being 6 years old, time to release Halo, Forza horizon 4 & 5 on PS5. It'll help their revenue
"AI is not a substitute for human creativity. We position it as a technology that supports creativity. Creativity resides in people. We will continue to contribute to people's creativity through technology," the CEO said.
...not yet but 100% within the next 10 years!
..Then Sony will use it like the drop of a hat. They're no different to the others.
People that aren't software developers just don't understand the benefits of AI. People who's only exposure to A.I is the Terminator movie and other related sci fi films won't understand the benefits it provides.
It's not about replacing human labor. It's about making human labor easier.
Many years ago, I had laser eye surgery done. It was performed by a robot. The doctor took my measurements and calibrated the machine to make sure it would do what needed be done. And then the robot corrected my vision in 10 seconds.
15 years later and I still have 20/20 vision.
Nintendo Has Acquired Shiver Entertainment From Embracer Group
Great news it shows that Nintendo intends to continue developing ports of AAA games to its next gen platform
Buying studios from embracer now is a great deal, they must be dirt cheap at this point, Nintendo is a opportunist, they wait until someone fall so they get their best deal
I hope someone buys Piranha Bytes, their future isn't looking good right now. I love their RPGs, they're janky as f***, but they have heart and soul.
Nintendo saw the Mortal Kombat 1 Switch port and were like, "Yeah, these guys are worth acquiring."
You can't make this crap up lol
that would sucks better be a huge tech jump
If the market were to get flooded with consoles now, we might very well face the same fate as the gaming industry did in the 1980's.
The economy is not strong enough, especially in the United States to risk launching a new console, especially if you cant do it for under $600, which is what Microsoft or Sony would have to sell new tech for.
Nintendo is in my opinion anyway just releasing some sort of stopgap that probably should have been released last year.
It will let them continue with motion controls but also bring back the core crowd, imagine people playing a version of COD on the Nintendo with solid online and graphics on par with the 360 / PS3? They would be contenders.
Any improvement these new consoles could make would be almost entirely in graphics. The PS3 has 12 buttons and two sticks, the 360 controller is about the same. From an ergonomic perspective, this is the best anyone can do. So I doubt the next generation of controllers will change very much. MS and Sony will have to squeeze more options into the same controllers we're all using now, which might actually happen, but won't be much. Just a few examples: what was added control-wise when MGS and GTA went from the PS2 to the PS3? I'm NOT referring to the obvious improvement in graphics... that's a "DUH!.... what could the controller do in GTA4 that it couldn't do in GTS: San Andreas? And what could the controller do in MGS4 that it couldn't do in MGS3?
I can see some upgrades in gameplay, but it will mostly be graphics: resolution, framerate, etc.... hopefully, as long as MS and Sony are taking, the jump will be big enough to make FFXIII look like FFVII, or GTA4 look like GTA2.
And if we're REALLY lucky.... the dominant genre will be Sandbox.... instead of FPS. Imagine getting, instead of a half scale Manhattan Island, the ENTIRE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, 163,696 square miles, with graphics that would make Crysis look bad.
Love how console devs play the cat and mouse game. Oh we aren't doing anything towards a new console. Then suddenly a new console is announced. In other words keep buying our current gen while we pop a next gen console in your lap when we hope you least expect it and will be surprised. All done with low supplies in stores of course.
