The head of the PlayStation division at Sony, Andrew House, has said that the current generation of consoles have a lot of life ahead of them, something that God of War dismantles.

Just yesterday it was announced that the new God of War for the PlayStation 4 will not work in 4K resolution, because it is impossible for its hardware to offer a stable 30FPS outdoors and in battles, what's more, reaching that rate was impossible, for which will only work at 1080p. The former director of the PlayStation division at Sony, Andrew House, has said that both the Xbox One, and the PlayStation 4, 'have years ahead of them', which being realistic, we are going to question very much.

House has spoken about the useful life of the current generation of consoles, a period of life that, according to his criteria, has increased thanks to the arrival of the Xbox One X and the PlayStation 4 Pro, which will allow to extend this generation of consoles and allow the new generation to take longer to arrive. The problem is that the obsolete hardware of the consoles forces developers to juggle to optimize the games and as in God of War, there are times when it is impossible.

Andrew House has also commented that the physical release of video games will continue to be an industry standard, something that is also absurd, since Steam sells thousands of dollars I have always been a strong advocate of long life cycles for consoles . Consoles tend to have very low and very weak representation in many markets around the world. I think there is a lot of potential in them. We only have to look towards countries like China, which are still huge markets to be exploited. In my opinion, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One still have a lot of life left.

In 2013, the vast majority of people said that consoles were dead, the entire market began to move towards smartphones, but there is no more future for this.

I do not have a great knowledge about these topics, but my heart tells me that you are still going to see a physical disc in the video game industry for some time. If we want to continue growing in markets like China, we should consider the physical format as a very serious proposition.
