next-gen predictions/expectations:

[Mike809]

What are your predictions for next-gen??

Sony:
- First-party studios will hit the ground running , and truly shine once again. Studios such as Bend
and Sucker punch will produce 90+ metacritic games.

-Sony will invest more on VR with their PSVR 2.

-I believe they will be more agressive with PS NOW.

-Last of Us 2 Multiplayer will be a GaaS , which they will support for many years.

-I dont expect a mid-way gen refresh like a PS5.5.

- Bigger Focus on multiplayer games.



Microsoft:
- Will struggle until 2022.

- I expect them to announce gamepass on either a nintendo or sony console.

-Obsidian Entertainment will carry the xbox brand.

-Will buy the studio making "The Medium" if it turns out to be a hit.

-They will invest in more new I.Ps

The Arcadium is gonna be like downtown Baghdad once these Microsoft first party exclusives start dropping circa 2023. Phil Spencer is like Mohammed to these Xbots.

Sony will win...handily

 

[the_FUTURE]

Nintendo to complete the swtich family of systems.

MP4 to crush buildings.

for Switch online to either expand greatly or accept MS' servers/online

GameFreak to be cancelled for trying to make the next Pokemon game be exactly the same if not worse than S&S

some more innovative products to increase the ways to play their games.



MS will continue to be for the consumer and make gamepass a sure deal,
and once they start dropping their first party titles all in abundance

Phil will also cave and bring back Scalebound

Stans will continue warring over which company's dikk they prefer to deep throat. Normal people will buy and have fun with what the industry comes up with. Games as a Service model will continue to excel, people will continue to complain while handing the offending companies money hand over first, not understanding they're the problem. We might get 2, maybe 3 original ideas.
