Have the PS3 and Xbox 360 Lost Their Thunder?

My 360 is collecting dust by about 1 year, i only made a dashboard update in 1 year and that's it, i plan to sell it.

PS1 came out in 1994, manufacturing ended in 2006.

PS2 came out in 2000, manufacturing ended in 2013.

PS3 came out in 2006, manufacturing will probably end around 2018.

PS4 came out in 2013...hey, do you see the pattern here. That means PS5 will release by...

12+ years seems to be the magic number. Sony will always support their consoles far deep into their life cycle. I think it's the only game company to do that for so long. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

I still play both, just got about 45 total PSN n XBL games before I officially move on to multi new gen owner

My backlog is so huge on both ps3 and x360 I have no reason to upgrade to ps3.5 and Xbox 180

My Xbox & PS have been collecting dust for years ever since I've upgraded to PC gaming.

The original PS3 is still one of the best investments you can get. But that's coming from someone who still collects PS1 games.

Do believe developers need to move forward and start building games with the this-gen console PS4 and XBox ONE first in mind.

I agree with all of the above about PS3 and XBox360 being very good consoles, but also it's time to let go.

Start afresh in 2015.

My PS3 rules the roost.

How come whenever we see a gaming post here on techspy the comments start flowing suddenly.

Consoles = lot's of AAA exclusive games.

no games. no consoles. no PC.

I stopped using both once I got my Wiiu :P
Plus my 360 just RROD on me again, and its waaay past the warranty.

I play on PS3 RELIGIOUSLY even being a PS4 owner to this day!!!

"Have the PS3 and Xbox 360 Lost Their Thunder?"

360 yes, PS3 no.
Come to think of it, the 360 never really had thunder to begin with and no, its not because it was lightning.

Don't have any of the next gen console yet and Still enjoying my PS3, can;t wait for persona 5 and Kingdom Hearts 2.5 remixed for it
