That’s not true. I wanted a “next gen” since about 2 years into the current gen when it was clear that the hardware wasn’t good enough to keep up with pc and game tech.
Comment on Sony Signals It’s Not Prepared To Sell PlayStation 6 ‘At Significant Losses’

No one’s asking for a PS6. Each console gen should last longer than the last anyway at this point.

If you’re expecting to always be on the cutting edge, why in the world are you buying consoles? That’s the opposite of everything a console promises (stable development target for developers)

I have a gaming pc that I upgrade too btw.
Consoles were always cutting edge up until the XB1/PS4 generation, and generations were only like 4-5 years long meaning they didn’t hang around long enough to get behind by much. Now they’re starting out years behind already, and hanging around 5+ years too long.

Yeah. The previous cycles are unsustainable. And we all need to update our expectations.

Why tf did we even need a PS5 to begin with? Other than correcting shitty loading times, nothing actually changed except I couldn’t play my games while the shortage lasted.

The spec difference between a PS4 and a PS5 was pretty big, SSD aside.

I just got am external on for the PS4 with ni issues. Maybe it was faster and that had something to do with the shitty load times being corrected.
