Forums - Sony Discussion - RUMOR: Playstation 4 to be called "Omni" + lots of other details

well, in Japan they wont have that name, unless they want a console to be named "PlayStation Death".


The PS names in Japan use english numbers however... but still I think they are going to skip "4" for this reason all the same.

sep 2013 launch would be lovely.



They should make this upcoming console their final console.. so they should pack in some good technology..

but launch at $399

This seems like a well put together and logical rumor, but the glasses part seems crazy if true. I for one, think that if they came out with a feature like this and it wasn't part of EVERY console sold, then that is stupid. Any new feature or tool MUST be part of every console sold otherwise it will likely fail in the long run. Even Kinect, with its strong start, has fizzled and people generally don't care about it anymore due to lack of new content.


i dunno, depends on what you want to accomplish i suppose. the balance board wasn't in every wii console but i'd still say that was a successful product launch.  it's just a periphrail has to stand on it's own and can't be expected to be the selling point of the ps4.

but all the same, these details do not make me happy.

ignore me



Forget the PS4 stuff... did you all read the rest of the info on all the games neXtBox,WiiU etc?

That rumor list is massive.

Based on that rumor list... PS360 (2x) WiiU (2x) PSOmni (2x) neXtBox.... A very interesting setup.
Also, seems like all nextGen games will be on WiiU as well as others... at least all the ones mentioned in that thread.

Next E3 seems like the one you'd want to go to if you ever wanted to go. I think I'll have to figure out a way to get there.



Based on that rumor Sony is going to launch everything they have on 2013.

I don't like the idea of adding the HMD and those pulse sensors, that would add to the cost and gimp the total power the console could've had without them...

Also, that dongle for backwards compatibility sounds so fake... but who knows...

I prefer to believe the oher rumours which suggest a powerful console :P

I like this one :P

 

I would just prefer if Microsoft and Sony's consoles don't end up being too much more powerful than Wii U



I thought Sony had given up on forcing 3D onto consumers who don't want it. If anything, have they not learned from the abysmal appeal the 3D in the 3DS is for consumers?

They don't want this. Please, Sony, invest your money to make the system better in other ways.
