Man, the longer they keep insisting on cross-gen titles the longer it takes for next-gen to really get going. I guess that's how fucked budgets are though, that even with games that would probably do the lion's share of their sales on the newest hardware (so long as it was successful of course, which the PS4/XB1 are) they still may legitimately need those other sales for awhile. Even though this seems like the exact kind of game that needs to leave prior generations behind rather than a linear corridor shooter.
Diminishing returns may've kicked in harder than ever. Not necessarily visually (though that's significant relative to prior generations) but gameplay ideas. There probably isn't really that much more you could do on PS4/XB1 that you couldn't have done on PS3/360 already, so just murder the graphics and it fits! Though there's still stuff like fitting the Bat mobile into Arkham City gameplay, so it leaves me to wonder what may not be doable in these games because they want to keep PS3/360 there.I think that because the Ps360 are HD consoles, this cross-gen era is going to last longer than previous ones. Expect games being held back for another year or two. Thankfully, some titles like Arkham Knight are ditching the 2005 tech.
