Funny, it seems little more than a year ago that a US drone strike murdered seven innocent children and one adult in an embarassing case of mistaken identity.

Oh look, it was.

Yep, current gen consoles are very well balanced with CPU, RAM, fast SSD and GPU.

Maybe there could be a mid-gen bump with a better GPU, but hardware development has slowed down, and current CPUs offer very incremental improvement compared to PS5/Xbox Zen 2 CPUs.

Only with PC upgrades you don't have to buy a whole new pc and sell the old one. They can do what they want but I'm happy using my pc and buying a new console when they offer enough new things to justify buying one. I skipped ps4 since my brother had it. We all know how PS5 was a fiasco with accesibility and now I'm kinda over it. I settled on switch and pc for time being. Switch and steam deck allow me to play on my couch which was sometimes a downside with playing on pc, mostly with casual games. I prefer mouse for anything that needs aiming.

Plus, given the leaps in advancement of game graphics I would have guessed console upgrades would be less needed than more? I'm not sure what to make of it at this time if I'm honest.

Also when you site the source that doesn’t mean you can just use the source word for word.
