The same games are supposed to work across both iterations. It doesn't exactly extend the generation. You just have to pay much earlier for incremental upgrades now, a slowly progressing PC if you will.
Yeah but that's not any different then the cross platform games which were on both PS3 and PS4 for a good few years after this gen began. We had cross platform games up till 2015 as a norm and Persona 5 released on PS3 in 2017.

Sure the difference in OG PS4/XB1 games to Pro/XboX may never become as large as cross platform but it serves the same purpose. The biggest question is do you guys think PS5/XXXbox will need to support Pro/XboX games or not ? That's gonna be the more interesting thing to tackle. Will we even see a new 'generation' or will consoles become iterative ? Pro can run PS4 games but no guarantee Pro Pro will need to have PS4 backward compatibility.

Its entirely different because PS4/XB1 were generational leaps over PS3/X360, while the Pro and X1X aren't over the base versions, and both companies have said Pro and X1X won't be getting games exclusively developed for it. Cross-platform development in the transitional phase is a different matter. (Persona 5 is obviously an exception here, and not a terribly technically demanding one at that).

I've said it before and it still seems that the traditional concept of "generations" might be coming to an end. The next iteration, should they maintain the 3 year gap, could be a bigger upgrade than the current refresh but still not a generational leap as from Ps2 to Ps3 to Ps4. They will likely drop support for base console versions once the next iteration hits and continue to support 2 consoles at a time (cross platform games in the transitional phase notwithstanding).

Mark Cerny is definitely in favor of the 'generations', so a ps5 is inevitable!

we are even seeing it now.. the games that looked very good on ps4 now even not very demanding games have gone to 900p on OG ps4.. even if you don't want to you are forced to do the upgrade just to avoid the shitty blur gfx or the extra perks.

Interesting update by Richard @DF!
The prices have gone back upto 500$ for the technology but the resulting technology doesnt offer a generational leap as it did back in the ps2 to ps3 days!
In short, dont expect a ps5 anytime soon :/
2020-21 is when we see the PS5, but it will happen. No way it cant not happen looking at PS4 sales figures.

People have been craving for a good Spider Man game and with the MCU on top of the world right now, this is the best time to launch a Spider man game. If marketed well, they could have a huge hit on their hands.

it's a shame it's not releasing in time with the Homecoming movie but they could get it released alongside Infinity War next year.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
