This has probably been discussed before but I'm new so I apologise if I'm retreading old ground. Does anyone think that the current gen of consoles have already peaked? I can't speak for PS3 I've never played one but I think both Wii and 360 have reached their peak. Within it's first year or so the Wii had all its best games Galaxy, Prime 3, Twilight Princess and Mario Kart I can see very few games on the horizon that can touch any of those titles. As for 360 I think that peaked ages ago with Gears. I've enjoyed no game on 360 as much as Gears with the exception of perhaps GTAIV. Hopefully the run of quality looking titles due by Christmas will prove me wrong.

you would have to ask every Developer who makes a game. they have a chocie, either make a good game and risk it or make a bunch of crappy ones for less risk. Devs will come around and make a good one here and their. But I dont think their is a peak right now to technology.

From my viewpoint, you just need to open your eyes a bit and try more games.

No, I don't think any of the consoles have peaked. Developers are still saying that they aren't using 100% of the PS3's Cell Processor. And there is still tons of potential for what can be done with the Wii-mote. Graphically, the 360 may have peaked, but it still will have great new games coming its way, as will all three of the consoles. I believe that the best is yet to come.

Graphics aren't as important as games, and even if they were, I think they can still improve graphics. And gameplay can always be improved.

It's not that I need to play more games. I've got few ties and a relatively disposable income so I play pretty much every major release. I just think playing certain stunning games so early in a consoles lifespan has left me a little disillusioned regarding their future. Plus the topic was lifted from an issue of EDGE who probably made a far better argument than I could, try and check out their article on 360 peaking prematurely if you get the chance.

Probably, if you've played every single major release on every single console and PC since the launch of the 360... but I doubt anyone actually has. I've got 360 games on backlog now... and more to come... it's not good because I've got PS2, GC, Dreamcast and Saturn games as well... not to mention I will be getting a new PC soon and be able to get into all the games like Supreme Commander that I missed.

Simple answer, no.
