Sony says the PS5 is in the latter half of its lifecycle

What? It feels like the PS5 just came out. Granted it was about four years ago, so it makes sense literally to say “latter half”; but it’s not exactly been a stellar, blockbuster period for the PS5?

A new console would offer so little for a lot of money – actually the present PS5 offers very little over the PS4 considering how many major games are cross-generation, despite it being four years into the console lifecycle.

(all this applies to the Xbox consoles as well, but Microsoft seems to have basically semi-abandoned the concept of an ‘Xbox’ for whatever the fuck they’re doing)
