BBC - Andrew House comments on Neo, games will 'play an awful lot prettier' - NeoGAF

QuoteNot much, but contrary to some reports that execs wouldn't be talking at all about this at E3, it seems the BBC wrangled something out of Andrew House.
 Video is at the link: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-36524689
 Transcript:
QuoteBBC: You have a new PlayStation, or upgraded PlayStation 4 in the works, why aren't we seeing that at E3 this year?
 House: Really, very very simple. Just as was the case with PlayStation VR we feel that it's important to show people the new hardware, the new platform, when we have got the full range of experiences that can take advantage of it.
 BBC: Now, PlayStations have had refreshes over the course of the lifecycle of every single generation of PlayStation, but this is a slightly different refresh, isn't it, because it's a hardware refresh as well, it's not just cosmetic. Is this indicative of a new strategy for the PlayStation, that there's going to be more heavy-duty upgrades over the course of a console's lifecycle?
 House: Well, to be very clear, the high end PS4, codenamed Neo, that we are working on, is an addition to the existing lineup, not a replacement. Perhaps we have an opportunity to move slightly away from just a static console that remains absolutely the same for a period of six, seven, eight years. And perhaps offer, in addition to
 the current PS4, something a little extra. Particularly, and I should stress this, in the area of graphic fidelity, and games that will essentially play an awful lot prettier than games have previously.

Yeah it's interesting. I think Zelda looks great, but they didn't even have a conference.

Also Todd Howard: (The Elder Scrolls 6) "it's a very long way off" - NeoGAF

QuoteSo, this is an interesting topic which isn't being talked about that much, due to all the E3 craze: According to Todd Howard, we're not seeing TES VI for a very long time. In a recent YouTube Live at E3 interview with Geoff Keighley, Mr. Howard talked openly about current and future Bethesda Game Studios projects. When being asked about TES VI, Todd Howard confirmed that they're currently working on it but implied that we won't hear about TES 6 for a really long time. Todd Howard actually went as far as saying that we'll see the 2 other projects BGS is working on, before the next The Elder Scrolls installment. Bethesdas VP of Marketing, Pete Hines also stated almost a year ago that we won't hear about the next TES game for a very long time. It basically explains why we received that Skyrim remaster, which was very obvious to me. Releasing remastered games of certain franchises makes sense:  - if a sequel is on the way in order to increase or to keep interest in said sequel - if a prequel is necessary, in order to complement or complete a connected story - if a sequel in development will not be released in quite a while - which also serves to keep interest in a franchise I think that's interesting because TES isn't a series which suffers from franchise fatigue. While many can argue about the quality and direction of TES, these games are usually being released about every 5 years or so. On the other hand Bethesda Game Studios probably doesn't want to do  only Fallout and TES forever, so being able to work on new concepts and titles is certainly helping to keep things fresh and new. The most interesting part thoug is that Todd Howard mentions that the technology for TES VI just isn't out there yet, for what they're planning to do. I wouldn't be surprised if TES:O and Skyrim:SE is everything we're going to get this generation. Maybe TES VI will heavily rely on VR or might even take place in Akavir - with a whole playable continent? Either way, I think it's a pretty unusual move - especially coming off a game which sold 20 million copies in a franchise which previously never managed to sell more than 5 million copies per title. Here's the full interview with Geoff "Punished Snack" Keighley:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiBEfBQvOYU What are your thoughts on this, GAF? Send the Adoring Fan to me, if old.

Luckily there are no generations now

So I've been wondering. Is it safe to call Microsoft's conference something along the lines of "The PC Gaming Show: Part 1" or "The PC Pre-Gaming Show"? :P
