The consumer 2, 3, and 6 axis DOF chairs actually barely move but can give a sensation that makes it feel many times more than it actually is. IE the chair tilts back five degrees, but it feels like a plane in a heavy ascent.that might give people motion sickness.plus, a lot of g's can make it hard to breathe iirc.
I've sat on ones even for the commercial entertainment market that hardly move.
There was one that was basically a bench you sat on with your feet on the floor and with the VR headset on, the vibrations and tilting was enough to make you feel like you were moving much more violently than you actually were.
R360 was brute force and basically unplayable, the equivalent of 3d films using extreme z axis to "justify" the extra cost.
Because people who do not have PlayStation consoles (nor interest in buying them) will buy the games they release on PC, thus broadening their market. Games drive profit more than consoles do, typically, because a shitload of money is invested in R&D and production thereof. Porting games they're already making anyway to another platform of the same architecture that's not generally competing with the platform is extra money for not a ton of extra work.
Xbox has been doing the same thing for a bit longer to pretty notable success. It makes a lot of sense if you don't think about the whole console wars perspective and look at it more objectively. More sales, more dollars.
Edit: That's not to say "console exclusivity" will ever go away, because people who buy either an Xbox or a PlayStation are going to continue to exist. Those are actual competing platforms appealing to a similar demographic.
Definitely, it might not be for some time, of course, but eventually improvements in technological capabilities will give more of an intensive. And, of course, they'll want to sell some more stuff.
Maybe with the ps6. Imagine playing a ps3 game, streamed, then losing your connection. Ugh. Anyway, Microsoft is kicking their ass in that regard. So far there's only been one game for the series x that was on the 360 that I wanted and wasn't bc.
PS6 planned ... it will happen around 2027. In document "ready to introduce a new console". https://www.gizchina.com/2022/11/24/ps6-sony-reveals-the-release-date-of-the-playstation-6/
I know we are a while out on the initial reply but
Sony goes pop. Would not be the first megacorp to do so, though lower on the list than some others (they have money, fairly diverse income, credit rating not bad, lot of assets, own both tech and the means to make it... it would take some massive fraud to knock them out).
Sony gets a new CEO, decides the playstation division is not worth the effort and kicks it in the head.
Sony gets a new CEO, decides the playstation hardware division is not worth the effort and goes software only.
Sony gets a new CEO, sells the hardware division to someone else and they take over. Might technically then be a PS6.
Consoles lose relevance. Someone might crack streaming games, phones might take over in a big way (give tablets happily handle emulation of devices up to the PS3 at this point that is a fair bit of native power, or indeed everything the Switch does and the Switch was a middling-good phone when it was released never mind now).
We take a fork and go into the good universe where console makers are like DVD player makers and everybody builds to a standard. Technically a PS6 might exist but only in the same way the PC I am typing this on is an IBM PC derivative, not in the way people generally understand consoles as a thing.
A gamma ray burst wipes out all technology and probably a lot of life such that PS6 is the last thing on anybody's mind.
Someone cracking some kind of streaming service (the technology and infrastructure is already there, would cost a fair bit to implement though) such that the PS5 or something remains for a long time with a native library and streamed also library for the new shiny shiny is the most likely of those from where I sit, though I certainly hope the DVD player model is adopted.
PS6 is definitely going to be released.
However, the level of excitement for me has dropped considerably because PlayStation doesn't have exclusives anymore or it's just a console exclusive meaning you can get it on PC.
Nintendo still has exclusives so they're sort of the last standing, but if your PC can handle its emulator then there's not much reason to buy one.

Yes. 100%. At least the ps5 will be able to last longer than the ps4 thanks to:
A. Fast SSD.
B. PS4 was like a low end pc when it came out. PS5 is like a high end pc now.

"PS5 is like a high end pc now"...
I didn't know that PC can be highEnd when it has problem with 4k60FPS and that it can have ZEN2 when the architecture is currently ZEN4... I don't even want to think what ZEN will be in 2028. There are also not enough PlayStation exclusives anymore.
In my opinion, the shift in today's tech world is much more than in the past, so already PS5 is outdated and we are waiting for an improved PS5 Pro that can handle at least 4k60FPS (ps5 runs a little above 4K30fps in graphics mode...) A new console would just should have set everything in 4k to at least 60FPS.

a new console won't do anything right now, because the games are still in development, that's why there are few games being released -
