I don't feel like the PS5 is showing its age, and I don't think it will in the next two years. That's why I'm more than fine with a 2028 or 2029 release. I do worry that the specs for the PS6 have been dialed in and that we'll be getting 'outdated' tech in 2028/29. Maybe still better than having to pay PS5 Pro prices for the base PS6 because of RAMmageddon. I do feel the first-party lineup is still lacking compared to previous generations, partly because Ryan put all his eggs in live-service games that have either failed or been cancelled. On a side-note, my most-played game this gen is a PS4 game that still hasn't been updated for current-gen, Rocket League.
I am also a bit wary of Sony's hardware releases lately. They’ve done many things right, but PSVR2 has been all but abandoned, the DualSense still has stick-drift problems, the PS5 Pro is very expensive for a marginal upgrade, not including a vertical stand feels petty, and the console covers are overpriced for what is essentially just plastic.
Call of Duty is a parody of itself these days, and the skins in the Vault Edition are a clear idication of how this will continue. Watched a friend play COD Mobile and unsurprisingly it's even worse there – much, much worse. The name is the only thing these games still have in common with what used to be an authentic military shooter, the travesty they have become is a real shame.
All games should have an option to display only standard skins. There will undoubtedly be plenty of skins in Battlefield 6 that feel completely out of place for the setting. I'm tired of soldiers looking like they’ve been styled by fashion designers.
Someone tell the EU that showing custom skins in-game is a predatory tactic designed to entice children into spending money on cosmetics. Maybe then they’ll pass a law requiring a setting to disable them.
Why Capcom didn‘t show any of what was described here in the new trailer is beyond me. That trailer was bad, and it‘s not selling me on the game at all. Third or first person? I‘ll be playing in VR again… you hear me Capcom, VR! ☺️

Re: New He-Man Beat-'Em-Up Is the Retro-Style PS5 Game of Your Dreams
I think this would have looked much better in the actual style of the cartoon, not this 2D pixel style they are going for.
Re: Ghostrunner Dev Changes History for PS5 Souls-Like Valor Mortis
Loved Ghostrunner and this looks great, but I just don‘t have the patience for Soulslikes… so, no thanks.
