Developers are yet to reach to point where next generation consoles are needed, James Keen, lead game designer on Far Cry 3, has told VideoGamer.com.
“I’m not quite sure that we’re there yet,” said Keen at Ubisoft’s summer showcase last week.
“I think there is still more to be had out of them, definitely. And I think the visual fidelity you do get out of consoles now, it’s still really good. We’re still pushing the boundaries [with Far Cry 3 on console].”
In recent weeks there’s been no shortage of reporting and speculation on when we may receive details of follow-ups to the Xbox 360 and PS3.
Last month VideoGamer.com broke the news that Xbox 720 is likely to be at E3 2012, with Crytek on board. Sources have reported that the developer is currently working on Timesplitters 4 using next gen technology, supported by DirectX 11.
But more recently, 2K chief Christoph Hartmann stated that Microsoft and Sony are merely testing the water for the next gen.
Do you think we need new consoles to enter the market, or should we be happy to stick with what we’ve got for the next few years?
