The next generation of consoles might come earlier than expected

One of the biggest complaints that people have about the current generation of consoles is that the power increase over the previous generation wasn’t nearly as significant as it needed to be, which means that the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One aren’t powerful enough to handle emerging trends like 4K gaming and virtual reality. That might not seem like that big a deal at the moment, but over the next few years, both of those things are going to become mainstream, which is why there’s a good chance that Microsoft and Sony will release the next generation of consoles much earlier than expected.
