ps4 is probably the LAST console. It just can't match the GPU power from a PC anymore.

And when the Steam Machine from Valve comes, it changes the whole console-scene. Basically, it's just PC in a very tiny box and can be used as a media center with TV. But, we must not forget the good old days.

The first PlayStation is the most beautiful PS ever released, best games, best demos, best soundtrack, everything so fu*king creative and awesome... still not feeling good with PS3/PS Vita and PS4, everything are remastered, every game points only on graphic, and you are not allowed to cheat!(I fucking love cheating with Action Replay and Password) for this reason there are NO other PlayStation on the market to can replace these kind of things!

New generation of gamers will never understand this.

The primary reason I find the PlayStation 1 did so well well was because Sony had an incredible marketing campaign. Everyone I knew when I was young had a PlayStation 1, or before that, a SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis. It also drew in the demoscene and people ended up buying the system just so they could reverse the console and find every little secret about it. The games were also fantastic because Sony ended up gaining most of the best developers to work on the console.

The PlayStation 2 was also a direct success in comparison to the PlayStation 1, but the PlayStation 3 was not so much in my eyes. The PlayStation 4 is just... boring. There is no more fun because it's locked out and extremely complex. Either way, every game console has a certain 'feel' to it. It's just whatever the user is most intrigued by in their standard nature.

One thing I find now is that you don't control the game, but instead, the game controls you.

Maybe the biggest reason too, why PS1 was so enourmous success, was that PS1 wasn't just a childrens toy like Nintendos used to be. It was stylish, well built, very good brand, it was a Sony's, must have machine for every home. And it had very much of mature content too, what helped it a lot.
