Forums - Gaming Discussion - No console has ever been announced at E3. Why Xbox 720 and PS4 will be announced before E3

I would love to see a full blown console announcement at E3, it would be insane.

Wii U was announced before E3 tis true, but it wasn't shown off at all till E3, surely that counts as an announcement



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

So...

Xbox -- May 2000
XB360 -- May 2005
Next Xbox -- May next year

I also hope the system will have a major exclusive at launch...not talking about something as big as Halo was for the original Xbox, but something that makes more impact than Kameo and Perfect Dark Zero.

MAYbe you're right. lololololol



Yay!!!

I expect PS4 to be announced early in the year at some Playstation Meeting in Japan. Release date will be December in Japan next year with early 2014 everywhere else. They can't let Nintendo dominate the portable and console market in Japan.....

Yup... good thread jay. They'll definitely be announced before E3. They don't even need major events like CES to announce them nowadays, social media will go a LONG way.


Thank you very much :)  And yeah i cant even say how many games has been announced through Twitter alone haha Although that is doubtful but you did make a good point

I know they've done that with both portables but why would they avoid BF and Cyber Monday if the console is ready?
