Huh. Never thought I'd see Temper Tantrums again. Nice to have it back.
I don't know how many times I need to say it: I want shorter games with more effort put into them made by people who are paid more to work less, and I am not kidding.

(who do I need to bribe to get my character a cameo in the next temper tantrums)

"Retro" comes back in style every few decades. No matter how far technology advances, you'll get robots like this one every now and then:

Its not about "retro" is about people tastes and design. Design doesnt know about modern or retro, just design. Design is design.
Many modern designs incorporate roman style or ancient greece.

Someone in a Chinese Factory: Boss! Boss! We overprinted molds of that cheap robot we used to sell in 1995! We are shipping thousands every day and we still have millions of them left! Our little Lee is tired of eating Robot Molds everyday!

Boss in Chinese Factory: Slap a cheap LCD screen to it and resell it!

Someone in Chinese Factory: But...! But...! This is the 100th time we'll be selling the same toy to children in mainland China!

Boss in Chinese Factory: It not matters! Mainland China will be great once again, children will not miss Xi Jingpin hourly propaganda now! For Mainland China! For Xi Jingpin!

Someone in Chinese Factory: Oh Boss! For Mainland China! For Communism! Long live Xi!

That's if we even have consoles that are consoles by the time a PlayStation 8 would exist. If it's not cloud gaming it's the wonky expectations that everything should be a super computer and must have absurd hardware power, which only leaves room for computer gaming in handheld or "home" form (even though we already have a computer at home, literally, but don't mind me, I'm sure marketing will call those "home consoles" one day). So I guess in other words, if consoles even exist by then.
I will Never buy into gaming as a service. if I don't have the files on my computer (with no drm), I'm not playing it.
