Gaming consoles of the future

Ever wondered what the future gaming consoles would look like? Well lets talk about that in this post. Luckily things are changing, and consoles, as they shuffle towards the end of their mortal coil, are leaving a vacuum in their wake that's being filled by a new generation of gaming platforms. Some of those platforms are hardware based, such as Amazon's new Fire TV, designed for both games and streaming media, while others are software services, including the games streaming service OnLive. Others are a combination of both and bring together high-end gaming hardware with its big-screen Steam OS – Steam's new hardware platform. For example, all of these platforms promise to change how computer games are made, sold and consumed. Some of them will make gaming cheaper, and all of them will bring the fight to Sony and Microsoft, who will have to fight or die in the face of their new competition.
