      Good. I would love at least a few years of games only releasing for PS5, and not PS4 also. Many people still refer to PS5 as “next gen” instead of current. It’s insane

    2. I don’t see any need for a ps6 until there is some huge generational leap in technology. The incremental improvements on power and graphics has been getting smaller and smaller over the years. There’s zero need to pay another $500 dollars in 2028 for a 10% increase graphics and framerate performance.

      Ah, the game slayer dot com, my favorite source for video game news as well, fellow average video game consumer. 

    4. Sounds good to me. I wouldn’t even mind if it gets delayed till about 2030 for obvious reasons, lol.

      With diminishing returns, I think games peaked on ps5 and there aren’t enough lucrative devs that could use the full power of ps6 and spend money for development. $500 becomes more harder to come by, and ps6 might cost more than that. I’m fine if games look like ps5 games forever.

    6. I believe it and well that’s okay. Gives PS5/Pro a bit more life and maybe they can fill out the PS6 launch lineup.

    7. PS5 games will still be made into the PS6 generation. I’m not going to upgrade year 1 again like I did PS4 to PS5.

    8. Very happy with that. Just got my ps5 after the state of play. So very down to play this console for 4 or 5 more years.

    9. The longer the delay the better. No need for a new console any time soon with how small generational leaps have become.

      My ps5 pro is looking like a good investment especially if pssr 2.0 is any good

      I’m a little bummed if this delay includes the rumored handheld tho

    11. Feels like this generation just started moving and abandoning the previous generation. I’m fine with this
