💨 Abstract
The article argues that Sony and Microsoft should abandon plans for next-gen consoles (PlayStation 6, Xbox 2027) and stick with current hardware. The author, a 40-year gaming veteran, claims recent console generations offer only incremental improvements, not revolutionary changes. High development costs, slower release cycles, and diminishing returns on graphics make new hardware unnecessary. The shift to digital sales and rising prices further reduce the appeal of new consoles.
