back to the one's who have brains topic:
yes of course the GPU of the consoles are lame atm and will only get worst in the future... but it is also true that crysistech are almost the only one's who can achieve to work consoles to near 100%. Plus you do realize that a new console would mean game devs to update their work and that my friend for the momento would spell apocalypse for M$ and Sony. it comes down to this, you want:
- new consoles without more than 3 new games a year
- old consoles with a few hundred new games a year
it's this simple.
and don't take it from me, just gather official MS and Sony statements about the matter.
just for the one thing about crysis before: that isnt right. nearly all actual multiplatform games (especially) since GTA4 reached the hardware limits of the consoles. just need to compare to the pc systems (for a good example even crysis2). all multiplatform games got much better scaled textures on PC compared to the console version, much more view distance, physics, details, there is AA/AF AND there are no limits to the frames per seconds while for example more and more games are limited to 30 frames per second on consoles. dont forget 720p only stuff. console games are already limited since few years that knows everyone who play games on an always actual pc system. why should developers extremly downgrade their games for consoles if they dont reach the "real power of an console"? there is no power, consoles are outdated since few years
what youre telling is truth, its an main issue of console systems and thats why the next generation of consoles should be completely changed. they need to be upgradable but not that "difficult" like on pc with 982752934 different configuration possibilities because a lot cant handle with it. just hardware and firmware like youre today already able to change the harddisk. you can for example upgrade the CPU/Graphics Unit by "plug & play" princip, the firmware downloads automaticly or whatelse and game developers can offer for those one more graphics/physics by options. M$ and Sony should develop a system that combines the advantages of an PC system and consoles but if i think more about it i more and more think that there is no future for consoles if they stay like they are. M$ and Sony definetly need to change. sitting in front of the TV and playing with controllers? i can do the same with a pc as well. in way better scale, graphics, details and possibilities, not just gaming and i even dont need a big pc towser with tons of cables, just an high end gaming notebook
