Eric wrote:The Dead Rising debate also doesn't account for the different developers involved. I think only the first was developed in house by Capcom Japan the others were farmed out which could account for the different mechanics.

You know you transition over to the next console when one plan ends and you have nothing to play - whereas now the idea must be you constantly move on but have an upgraded existing library.

I'll have access to all their games and my console will play them all. Granted, not as pretty or not as smoothly but still, it'll do. So If I want to jump on new tech come Xmas 2020, PS5 will offer the best feels. I can keep my Bone S, and wait for the series X to drop in price or a new model to come out in 2022, while still playing any third party games at their shiniest on the ps5. Have I got the above right?
