Will we ever get another...

Feeling like we had when the original PlayStation launched? I remember the 1st time i played the ps1 coming from the super nintendo, i played tomb raider 1 and resident evil 1 and my mind was blown at the 3d graphics and the gameplay amazing times man It was truly a golden era of gaming.Sure the next gen consoles are leaps ahead in terms of graphics and dynamics and i love them but for me that's what i expected, nothing has really blown my mind and felt like the same quantum leap i got from the ps1.

Do you think we will ever experience such huge leap again? or will it all be like gradual progression/ next logical step etc. I would rather have gone from ps1 to ps4 and skipped ps2 and ps3 just for that OMFG feeling lol.

My older brother was the one that brought a ps1 into our house at the time he was around 21-22 , far from a kid and i remember playing resident evil with him and both of us getting freaked out and blown away by game. hes nearly 40 now and still an avid gamer and says the same thing. Nothing was as revolutionary and mind blowinly good.

Ridge racer was another gem, like playing an arcade in your house for the 1st time! Totally bonkers at the time.

With all these slight increases in resolutions and graphics, you don't get the wow factor. I feel like the next step up from a ps2 or xbox should genuinely be like a ps4 or xbox one. That would be pretty incredible to see that leap in one go. I feel like we are spoilt with all these constant small steps id much rather they held onto the new tech and worked on the games behind the scenes before the big reveal, Maybe thats just me though im kind of an extremest like that.
