And there's far less meaningful innovation in gaming today. VR was pretty promising, but has failed to be transformative. The new consoles' graphics frankly don't look much better than current ones IMHO, despite having 10x or 100x the performance. Game streaming is the most interesting and disruptive technology, once the major players figure out the right business model.
Back in the 90s, opening a gaming magazine was so exciting due to the crazy stuff you might glimpse.
- brutus1213 6y agoHa .. I miss those days and have been curious what was different. I have chalked it to youth but maybe you have a point. Opening up gaming magazines was an experience that poems should be written about. I remember old magazines on Amiga and even Nintendo Power that I'd keep in my bedroom as some of my most hallowed possessions.

- jonny_eh 6y agoI bought a PSVR, arguably the least impressive of the bunch, but was still blown away. It was really neat. But I didn't touch it after a couple weeks. It was too annoying to put on, take off, clean, store, etc. So I sold it, and don't miss it at all.
