Who lauches a console in February!? That would be suicide. That would be like cutting a console's life short before it even came out of the womb. Then, you'd have MONTHS of doom threads and would probably have to hope for some sort of Assassins Creed or Call of Duty title to save your console. Nobody at Sony would make such a boneheaded decision. |
Atto Suggests...:
Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series
Game - Metro Last Light
TV - Deadwood
Music - Forest Swords

i do agree with you that late 2014 is likely, I just think its a mistake. Stating my opinion strongly doesn't mean I am stating it as a fact. Although my opinions usuall become fact. as it will if they launch late 2014. |
Nothing wrong with being self-confident.
The current situation for Sony makes it pretty hard though. What you are saying almost implies that they will never get on top. Only when the Ps4 sells like hotcakes... which it surely won't when released that early.

Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Gamers want 2013 ofcourse, but why would Sony? PS3 is a beast in sales right now, and they have Vita to take care of.
Heh 2015? Nintendo will be bringing their successor ~ 2 years after.
d21lewis said: I have a gut feeling that we won't see a fourth Playstation Home console until 2015. Partly due to the fact that the PS3 still has the potential to wow us with its graphics. Partly because of Sony's financial status and how expensive it is to launch a new console. Partly because of some other third thing (Spongebob movie reference). I think Sony is going to be extremely late to the party. You? |
dude, dev kits are already out the door. late 2013 to early 2014 is gaurented. you don't put dev kits out the door 2 years in advanced. sony's financial status won't delay a launch. R&D costs are sunk. it is more expensive to play an R&D department to not make products and not have anything to sell than to launch a product. ps3 sales are going to tank over the next year and the losses in revenues with sony's financial status will force them to release earlier not later.
i hope late 2013 -- basically 1 year to the day after wiiU's launch. if they don't get it out until early 2014 i think sony will conceed to 3rd place next gen and probably my a bigger margin than the ps3's couple million off of the 360.
Spring 2014 seems good. Releasing a few months after MS won't hurt PS4.
Having a good lineup of games for the console's first year and reasonable pricing, should be their priorities.
