This is great news for the video game community as even Sony and Microsoft admit consoles have nowhere else to go. They are already maxed out mini PC’s. So without huge graphics cards, you will see ZERO actual improvements on a 2028 console.
Save your money.

I dont want consoles to “get better” i want them to do more.
These are jsut xbox related because peasantry. I could go on and on if I put some thought into it, and what’s worse is that a lot of my gripes there ACTUALLY EXISTED. They saw it could be done, did it, then just said “lol no”. I dont know what game theyre playing, just creating previous work to hoard patents or some shit, but we’ve got perverted by graphics over the ages.
We marveled at shiny graphics/polygon count/draw distance/objects on screen because it was the most surface-level, obvious, in-your-face evidence of improvements. Nobody but tech enthusiasts really care about it. The big improvements we actually gave a shit about are the quality of life features, control schemes and shit.
They’ll be saying theres nowhere left to go because computing power has basically plateaud but there is so much more room for improvement and innovation.

Exactly. They could give us a built-in light gun and a steering wheel, and see what indie game developers do with them!

Then sell controllers without the features for a cheaper, get onboard experience (I’m still pissed about the kinect, I liked the idea of everyone having it, only for them to then sell consoles without it 🙃)
