Personal feelings agead: not based in facts.

Can we really say a "next generation" console is "in its latter stages of life cycle" when people like me have yet to buy a "next generation" console, and have bought every new game for said console?

I'm not denying it's got better specs. People always jump all over that, tripping over themselves to "um ackshyully" about how it really is superior in every way making it a "next generation" but come on.... If I can get the same or similar experience on "last generation" then is there really enough difference to call it a different generation?

Take my sister in law vs my me vs my wife. We are all millenials.

But SIL is start of the millenials, my wife is tail of the millenials, and I'm sitting around the 3/4 mark. We all had differing experiences growing up based on the years we were on our formative years, but we're all "the same generation"

My wife's best friend is a generation below us, but they have far more in common and should really be considered the same generation, IMO.

I hope I get my point across clear enough for someone to figure it out...

It just doesn't really feel "next generation" to me.
