To Next Gen or Not to Next Gen?

PS4 VS. XBOX ONE, and All-Things-Future-Gen VS. Present: Part One

  
PlayStation 4
The next generation of gaming consoles are upon us. Do you have one reserved or are you pinning one to your wishlist for the future? Me, well I don't even think I'm ready for the next gen push. I have been enjoying this generation, and I do believe we have become jaded by the products of modern developmental cycles, to which there is a constant flow of big budget and small budget gems. As much as we(gamers), as fans of certain genres or franchises, love to think how crappy or inconsiderate developers are, we are, in fact, beneficiary's of a gaming revolution. To some extent we are at a point where it hasn't been better, at least in terms of  game production and skill in the designing phase.But the large budgets have caused the narrowing resolve of publishers to become pencil like. Though, I will argue that because of its relative youth, locked away potential and continuing growth the game's industry is still malleable, and, thus, we can hope, with the dawning of the next generation of consoles, to see fresh ideas. But that can wait. I have GTAV to play. Besides, the wealth of experience of the current gen(PS3 and Xbox360) developers will provide evidence of the kind of relative future performance of the next gen consoles.
