Couldn't touch on everything I wanted to in this video or it would've been too long 😅 but what do yall think about this news? I wouldn't panic too much or say this is the beginning of the end for Sony lol but it is an eyebrow raiser to already hear something like this being said only 3 years into the generation when some would say we haven't even scratched the surface of ''next-gen'' yet. Especially considering how well (or at least I thought) the ps5 has been doing despite it's weaknesses..

[@ShinjiIkari007]

I think you can't do the math. It takes like 5 years to make a AAA first party exclusive these days. All we have had till now are remakes, remasters or sequels of PS4 titles. Only Returnal stands out as a new IP. What has this generation actually created??? Where are the new IPs??? 4 more years remaining that's nothing cuz like I said development cycle of these AAA games is 5 years. So either Sony needs to extend the lifecycle of their consoles or reduce the time it takes to create a AAA game. This shit is not working out like we had only 1 big AAA first party game last year(Spiderman 2) & we have ZERO first party this year(based on what's announced till now). And looks like even in 2025 it's only gonna be Wolverine unless that is also shifted to 2026 or something. So what math you talking about. Sony is afloat only because of third party exclusive deals like Ronin, Stellar Blade, Silent Hill etc.

Take a look at Rockstar that released too many games to even count in the PS2 generation. Now we’re down to Rockstar releasing one game a generation. So even if we have more games now than we ever did because of all the indies that exist, it sometimes really doesn’t feel like it with how slow some of these big AAA releases are.

[@Calinks]

I got a take. The gaming landscape is changing. The industry as we know it, is transitioning. For the last 30 years, consoles have pretty much ruled gaming. There was a period of time in the late 90's-early 2000's where people though PC gaming was going to die. Generation X and Y (Millenials) grew up playing largely on consoles. Consoles are now dying off. Console sales have peaked nad been stagnant for many years. Generation Z is a lot more invested in PC than generation X and Y were. A lot of these gamers 25 and under are PC players maybe in large part because they watch streamers and most streamer are playing on PC. The younger kids, generation Alpha, a lot of them don't even play console at all. They play on tablets and phones. My 10 year old nephew plays on his dads xbox sometimes but mostly he plays roblox and Minecraft, buys the robucks, and just stays on that game forever. That's been his game for like 2 years. I really think gamers are starting to move away from consoles, the hardcore are going to PC, and a ton of younger and more casual gamers are going to playing on mobile or streaming. I legitimately can see consoles being niche in 10-15 years. Only the old heads like us who grew up on them will still prefer to play there. Maybe they will still be around but they will be a smaller, more enthusiast market for largely older 40-60 year old gamers. The bigger market will people mobile and games streamed ordownlaoded directly to your tv or devices with PC's being right behind. I really think console are about to be on the way out. There will still be a PlayStation, Nintendo, and Xbox, they just wont look like they do today.

@@StevenAvery4Life I can't wait for Xbox to start using haptic feedback. I just hope it's on every controller and not just a new Elite. It actually is really good but you start to just take it for granted because it becomes the new norm. It isn't until you go back to past Generations that you start to realize the difference. You really don't notice in games that have intense action because your brain is just preoccupied. Slower Paced games, stealth or even something like Demon's Souls remake is way more noticeable then something like Call of Duty. The triggers do stand out in Call of Duty though. People turn them off for response but I actually think it's cool enough to keep on. Remember Nintendo used haptics first but it should be used by everyone.

Personally, in the grand scheme of things, the consul has been out for a little bit, and I think it was just the fact that it was so hard to get your hands on it in the beginning stages is what makes it feel like it’s all happening sooner than expected but to quote an earlier comment I saw it’s the latter half and not the latter stage so I’m not stressing. I think this year has been a little weird in some areas and both sides of the console, generations have made some strange decisions, if not outright crazy ones, but I can honestly say that I have been pretty satisfied with my game experience for this generation, I’ve gone to play all the games that I wanted to play and even got into a few games that just looked interesting to me.

Sony probably wants to jump ship. The pandemic really hurt the sales of the PS5 and both the PS5 and Xbox Series X came in boasting all this stuff, but when you get down to it, they didn't deliver on the hype they set. I think the other big issue was that most of the games they did for the first few years were PS4 cross gen, which means that there was no reason for PS4 owners to go out and get a PS5 when half the games they can just get on PS4.

[@Someguy_97]

Playing Astro’s playroom was an amazing experience and really got me excited for the generation of gaming that was to come. But I have to admit it has been a tad bit disappointing. Even the triple A exclusives, while great games, didn’t satisfy my expectations for this generation. Mostly due to devs staying on PS4 and basically porting to PS5. Console generations tend to take a few years to really get up an going so I’m still optimistic. Just look how long the PS4 took to receive some of it’s best games. God of War and Spider-Man didn’t launch until 2018. 5 years after the console’s launch. I think we felt better as consumers because we knew by 2016 that those games were coming thanks to E3. But now that it’s gone we just find ourselves waiting around unsure that our purchase was worth it. Whatever they release in 2025 needs to truly set the standard for the industry to satisfy us as consumers.

@Someguy_97 it does sell hardware but not the MAJORITY of it. It's more about the brand image and identity.

I play multiplats but I know why I bought only a ps4/5/switch. One of my homies only plays a few ps exclusives and another friend of mine plays literally nothing but cod and battlefield, another friend only plays a free soccer game. Most ppl are like the latter guys. And xbox is in the shitter bc theyre a terrible gaming company that cares more about crossproggression, screens, and gamepass than actual games.

surprisingly out of all the ps5 titles ive played, i will say returnal is the only one that felt next gen to me. Mainly because, like you are saying, they actually used the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers they were advertising. in order to use the secondary fire on your gun, you had to push past the minor resistance in the trigger. dope feature and this type of mechanic, yet simple, should be used across the board with ps5 exclusives.

They honestly should've been focusing on EXTENDING the life cycle of the PS5 seeing as the pandemic set them back almost three years. Instead, they chose to raise the price on the console because they saw an "opportunity" to because everyone started buying them like crazy after the pandemic ended so they wanted to make extra money, which affected how much units were getting sold in the long run. That decision is kicking them in the balls now and because of it they're now crying that they aren't selling enough units so because of that, we have now reached the "latter" half of the life cycle which usually ONLY gets announced 2 (sometimes 3) years before it actually ends. How are the expecting to sell the PS5 Pro if they're already projecting that the PS5 is already on its final stretch of highway? They've been making a lot of stupid decisions lately for the past few years.
