I never said I didn't "like" graphics, I'm saying from a business standpoint, I doubt Microsoft and Sony will want to use the latest and greatest. Hmm, I don't know what I'm arguing about, yet you're the one who had to change from graphics to aesthetics, which is a different thing all together. Next gen consoles will always be way behind PC in terms of power, and yet devs are still creating innovative games with the tech they're given, though most fail because they aren't AAA, and adding intricacy to games isn't based on graphical capabilities either. See Journey, Chronotrigger, or the most recent Dragon's Dogma, which had some very smart AI. All in all, I don't see consoles being these powerful machines everyone is hoping for in the next gen, maybe the power of a decent PC rig as of right now.
You don't need better hardware for better aesthetics, there are plenty of games with great artistic aesthetics being done with today's console hardware. Your problem is that you don't know what you're arguing about anymore. I spent well over 1600 on a computer and alot just went to the graphics card/processor, do you really think Microsoft and Sony will risk having a higher release price by adding higher end graphic cards and processors?
What you just explained=better graphical capabilities....did you even think about what you just said there...? Substance doesn't come from better hardware....i.e indie devs.
Isn't that what you're whining about? Better faster hardware? Do you even know what you're arguing about...? Can you make a better console at an economically reasonable price, as well as making it accessible to devs, along with a plethora of other factors, because if you can do it better and have real knowledge of the industry than Sony, then by all means go ahead.
Jusst because you don't like them doesn't mean they weren't creative, sounds like you're just going by nostalgia, which is a real shame because Sony has supported some real good exclusives (by the way, not all of those were PSN games)
@megakick People aren't willing to pay more for a console, do you remember the PS3's launch fiasco? Why would Sony "close shop", they're in everything. Quit pretending to know what you're talking about. Graphics aren't what needs to be improved in games, only people with short attention spans think that.
What are you talking about, if anything Sony has more original exclusives than any other consoles. See Journey, Flower, Unfinished Swan, Heavy Rain, Last of Us, Beyond...
