Gaming consoles such as Microsoft's Xbox and Sony's Playstation are expected to have its successors soon. The Xbox Two has been all over the wire due to the rumors about its release date and features. Same goes with the PS5 which is believed to be disc-less and VR-enabled.
According to Parent Herald, Sony is determined on making big innovations for its next generation console device, while Microsoft just confirmed that their gaming console will finally have a successor. It was reported that Sony is planning on removing disc drives for the PlayStation 5 (PS5).
With streaming becoming more typical and the technology already advance, it is now not essential to release games on discs. This hints that the PS5's design could be up for several major changes. This means Sony could come up with a thinner and sleeker gaming console that will win with portability. If one can bring around the PS5 like an iPad, then it would surely be a big deal for gamers.
Meanwhile, Latinos Health said on its report that Microsoft will bring significant enhancements to Xbox Two as well. This gaming console may come on the form of VR gaming and a 4K-resolution. For example, the Oculus Rift could also come with an Xbox One controller. Another upgrade that could also include complete backward compatibility is the AMD hardware specs capable of supporting a VR compatible console.
If Microsoft have it all figured out, a disc-less gaming platform could also be the standard on the next generation. Physical discs could be a thing of the past with the onset of digital downloads and streaming of games.
Furthermore, Tech Times added that there are speculations saying both Microsoft and Sony are in talks with AMD. This is said to be because the microprocessor-maker is offering a type of hardware that increases the performance of consoles by up to five times per watt. Both the Xbox One and the PS4 are noted to be using custom AMD APUs that is created on the Jaguar microarchitecture.
If what AMD presently offers proves to be agreeable, backward compatibility is anticipated to remain feasible since the consoles would still run on the same x86 architecture. This will guarantee gamers that they can still play Xbox One and PS4 titles on the upcoming hardware.
It remains to be determined how the next-generation of PlayStation and Xbox consoles could beat the demands that are seen in today's current versions. These include shorter life span, practicality of manufacturing, and the transition to downloadable media-only gaming.
