.... deja vu, blah blah blah I've heard all of these comments before. 3 decades of "PC gaming is dead" and I have yet to see it happen. ...but here some food for thought:
"I think in the future things will be played on the service, rather than on the hardware. The Cloud is often mentioned, and if cloud services progresses, the time when only the name of the service will remain will come some day.... The PS5 probably won’t have a main console, but just the screen and controller. So what remains will be just the name of the service. It could be named just “PlayStation network”. Steam is defined a platform, but it’s not a hardware platform. It’s the name of the service." - Katsuhiro Harada, producer Tekken series quoted from Famitsu Oct 2013
I think it's becoming clear the machine doesn't matter as much as the "platform" to which games are available. I don't know why people have these ego complex domination superiority arguments when it comes to gaming vs. gaming. I don't know about the rest of you, but I like choices - whether its console, computer, mobile or immersive VR. I hope in the future there will be several different ways to play games and access to digital entertainment. It's good that companies compete - it spurs innovation and keeps pushing the bar.
Mods, vote to lock this thread.. arguments here will go on forever with no meaningful compromise.
