DICE is ready for next-gen consoles

Hardware drives innovation in gaming. It's great that they have scalable engine so their future games can be built for more powerful hardware, but this is going to have little to no effect on BF3.

Been saying it for quite some time now, the extended life cycle of the current gen consoles has resulted in stagnation. Its not just "grafix" that benefits, its every aspect. Pathfinding, AI, physics, environment size & complexity, complexity of scripted events, amount of active NPCs with complex AI. Literally every aspect besides GUI benefits.
 
As awesome as a new generation on consoles would be. I think it'd be a long time before I would have the extra cash to buy all new ones
 
yeah and for the people that have just recently invested in the new xbox slim, i think it's a bit too soon to bring out new consoles
 
Doubt sony or microsoft have such plans for the short-term at the moment, not with kinect and move now.

All the more time to start saving for when next-gen consoles do finally arrive.
 
The upside of the extended life cycle on consoles at the moment is that my PC that I upgraded nearly 2 years ago can still run games flawlessly and it's not that games aren't getting any better looking either.
 
Haha. Nothing will come of this. Next Battlefield maybe.... will see a new console. DICE cant afford to bring out a console, and Sony is concentrating on the NGP and Xbox doesn't give a shit, they are making some serious mula now
 
DICE and Epic are already calling for next next-gen consoles. So are Ubi. This gen better not run too long.
