Generation failed to meet expectations in 3 yrs, according to Reader's Feature.
It has been three years since the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S and yet there has been no recognition from Sony or Microsoft. This is not surprising given how unimpressive the past three years have been for the new console generation.

This year has seen some great video games come out, but the fact that most of them could have released on the previous generation consoles is a testament to how little the new consoles have achieved.

At the start of the generation, things looked promising for the PlayStation 5, with a good launch line-up and great first year. But things have been going downhill ever since. This year has only had one major exclusive, and while Spider-Man 2 is great, it is not enough.

The same can be said for Microsoft, who had a strong summer showcase followed by the lackluster release of Starfield. The game could have been made on the previous generation, and it would not have been particularly impressive.

The streaming of video games has been touted as the future, which could make new console generations unnecessary. But it is clear that there will still be a PlayStation 6 and more, as Wi-Fi is not good enough or has enough coverage to make streaming the only option.

The point of a new generation is to offer improvements that the previous one couldn't. But we haven't seen that from either the PlayStation 5 or the Xbox Series X/S so far. The SSDs haven't changed the way games are designed, while the DualSense and Xbox Series X features have not been used to their full potential.

Rumors are circulating of a PS5 Pro, which is the most pointless thing ever. The power of the OG PlayStation 5 is not being used, and so there is no need for a new version.

It's clear that Sony and Microsoft have taken their eyes off the ball in terms of making great games. Most of the successes of this year have had nothing to do with them. Nintendo, on the other hand, seem to be doing great in terms of quality and quantity.

To conclude, the past three years of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S have been a huge disappointment. The consoles are not using their potential and the games have not taken advantage of the new technologies. It is time for Sony and Microsoft to step up and deliver what they promised.
