In the fast-paced world of video games it's important companies are constantly innovating to give players a reason to purchase their many products.

With constantly improving technology this has become even more crucial, as modern consoles are increasingly seen as multimedia devices where convenience is valued almost as much as the amount of power the platform can put out. This race to consumer domination has given rise to a huge number of innovations over the years, with many that wouldn't have even been thought possible in days gone by now being the standard across the board. But what if some of these supposed "next generation" selling points were not as revolutionary as they purport to be?
