Home consoles need to learn from the PC and from Valve

Tameem Antoniades, a co-founder of developer Ninja Theory, believes that the new hardware that Valve is working on alongside SteamOS will be more disruptive to the current generation of consoles than mobile gaming.

The developer tells GamesIndustry.biz that, “the Steam Box has the capacity to disrupt before mobile does. There are still technical limitations on mobile – bandwidth for streaming, processing and battery power that will just hold it back for a few years.”

Previously Antoniades has said that the Xbox One is going in the wrong direction and that the PlayStation 4 and the Wii U will also find it hard to compete during the coming years.

Ninja Theory is best known for creating titles like DmC: Devil May Cry, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and Heavenly Sword.

The studio is at the moment working on a new title but it’s not known what platforms it will be launched on.
