Either way, Sony are going to look real stupid launching the PS3. If released soon, they would've broken the 10 year promise. If released in 2017 as promised, they'll be late to the party, and they'll be behind
I thing the PS3 will be supported for ten plus years but will be the low end cheap one like the PS2 now.
I don't believe it.
Sony made HUGE claims regarding the PS3 Move, and if they really are jumping ship to Kinect-like controls RIGHT after pushing Move, a lot of consumers are going to be jaded (unless it uses both Move and the "Kinect"-clone - we'll see). Releasing Vita and the PS4 in 2012 (provided the Vita ships January, as rumored) would be a risky move. All in all, it's hard to believe, and I'm not ready to drop ~$1000 on both a PS4 and Wii-U yet.

Kinda like how the Wii U flew right in the face of everything Reggie said right before it was released? It happens.
I'm ready for PS4. I'm not believing this body movement motion control thing though. I have no doubt it'll have some sort of motion control, but not the controller-less kind.

Yep, I'm pretty sure Sony always intended to release their next system before the PS3 had been out ten years, they just plan on keeping the PS3 a viable system for a couple more years like the PS2 was (to some degree) post-PS3 launch.
Yay! I'm ready for a new generation of hardware. That kinda sucks for Sony though. The PS3 incurred such heavy losses from the first couple years that Sony will be burning cash on a new platform while the last one is still in the read.
Personally I think the current gen could go on a bit longer. The PS3 still has a good deal of power in it and developers should be used to it enough now to get the most out of it.
And quite frankly, if the PS4 uses Kinect controls, then that's me fucked out of using it, as I don't have the space for Kinect and wouldn't have the space for it either.

AM NOT READY :(
...And if it has controller-less motion controls, that could be potentially horrible : /

I won't believe this unless we hear something from sony very soon. It doesn't make sense to begin production before the public has heard anything. Companies want to get people excited, build anticipation,announce games..not; surprise! Here's the ps4!
Because the PS Eye do not totally do what Kinect do... O wait, it does. I think if the rumors are true, what it could means is just that the PS4 would have a PS Eye built in, so you would only need to buy the Move controllers. Also, hope that just means Sony will make and store the consoles to release them cheaper by the end of 2012 or mid 2013.

Respectfully, I think it's time to find a new hobby then. You've obviously lost your interest in this one.

I'd also think these manufacturers would be legally required to not talk about specifics before their employers say so. Kinda like how developers can't say anything ahead of time. Information release is plays into business strategy
I don't believe this story at all.
PS3 has just recently started making a profit,and selling on par, if not better than the competition world wide.
I'm sure PS4 has been in the planning stages for years,but it would be stupid to release the PS4 so early.
Hell almost every single gamer I know, myself included,have just recently switched over to PS3 as their main console.
I'm certainly not ready to replace it just yet.

PSeye does not do what kinect does, PSeye is more like the Xbox vision cam. Kinect is a step up from that.

The ps2 STILL isn't officially dead yet right? They always overlap the life cycles by a few years.
Also this shouldn't be that surprising, it takes a long time to develop new hardware. These are probably first-run units for early testing. I don't think they would do 2012 simply because the marketing machine needs time to hype it up. Maybe we'll see it at E3 next year though!

I normally agree with you, but the Kinect is a bit more detailed than that.
As an owner of both, I contend that the Kinect is much better at recognizing different body parts, and is a true step in the right direction for body motion control. Whereas the Kinect can recognize your left and right arms, and different other appendages separately, the PSEye can't really do that, even with the help of the Move.

Eeeeeh.
Not keen on this motion control business. I love my Wii, but there is fuck all out for it.
I'm gonna wait to see what tech Microsoft come up with, then make my opinion.

lol, that's fine. Go ahead and put one of those out so I can just buy a PS3 for cheap and play the games I missed. I don't get it. Companies are always bitching about costs, but they seem more interested in getting to the next tech level than finding ways to make current generation development cheaper. Gaming is expensive enough as it is. Is the plan to make it so that only the super-rich can play current gen stuff while all those middle and lower-class assholes have to play two generations behind to afford it?
I bought a preowned copy of Ridge Race Type 4 for PSOne last week in my local Gamestop! If i can walk in to a Gamestop in 2012 and buy Games for 4 generations of Playstations!? Thats all kinds of crazy!
Part of me says NOOOO TOO EARLY,the other part suggests Santa Monica didnt show anything at E3 because they are developing a ps4 launch title in that case, WOOT
@McBattery I just switched over to Ps3 too. I made the switch from 360 to Ps3 the day after the Sony conference. So yeah... I'm not ready for a PS4 just yet.
Nintendo needs a new system to catch up with the other businesses, which is why we are getting the Wii U. Sony and Microsoft have a pretty good thing going on now and don't really need to upgrade yet. :-/
Sony don't be like Microsoft, I do not want another Kinect clone. I don't want the PS4 coming out anytime soon, 2013 is the earliest I will accept it. I really don't want to see it until 2014 or 2015, it just isn't needed to me.
@Gunner226 LOL I switched from 360 after E3 2010,Most of my friends switched after this years.
I still have my 360,but let Live Gold expire about 6 months ago.
I'm still holding out hope they release something that interests me, If not I'll probably trade it in for Vita or Uncharted 3.

Motion controls are fine if they are optional and you can turn them off, but I have a creepy feeling about consoles looking at me in my living room.
@Neo- there are many games out there that are not shooters! Alan Wake, Demon Souls, Devil may Cry 4, Lost Odassy, FF13, Dead Rising, Mortal Kombat, Splitsecond, God of War 3, Assassin's Creed, Heavy Rain, Yakuza 3&4, Super Mario Galexy, Zelda, Epic Yarn, and shit loads more <portal>! your ether jaded or 12.
@Neo If you don't like the clubs that the school offers, why not make a new one? If you hate reskinned shooters, why not make an innovative game?
And truth be told, if you honestly think that this industry is all about reskinned shooters, you ARE a 12 year old who can't appreciate innovative games that get released time and again. Go play World of Goo, for a change, or maybe Amnesia, or how about you go and play LittleBigPlanet? Stop whining and start looking, or go and get a better hobby.
And am I the only one who is still not tired of Reskinned McBurger: Juicy and with a side of Fries?

I think game companies just love fucking with our brain. They tell us one thing then go and do something else. I'm really not ready for a new console, I think the PS3 has finally hit it's stride and has a decent amount of good games coming out for it. To cut off it's head would be dumb.

am i the only one who does not want a new generation yet? look at uncharted 3! there's only one game with that level of detail; the ps3 has not reached its limit at all (no i'm not a fanboy, i care equally about all consoles/PC)
@Darckcloud723
I am sorry, but I just haven't felt the excitement this generation of of buying a game, rushing home, ripping off the packaging, and actually playing it. Probably the only game left that will do it for me is The Last Guardian. And yeah, I've played most of those games. I guess I wasn't meant for PS3/XBox360.
