Ten years cycle doesn't mean not releasing anything before, old and new console can coexist. Sony still sells PS2 and won't stop until sales dry up.

 

Nice straw man argument I didn’t say Sony couldn’t have two consoles on the market at the same time. I said Sony made the grandiose claim that their 7th generation offering is “Future-Proof” so much so that they made a 10 year lifecycle boast. They never claimed a 10 life cycle for the PS2 but Sony’s CEO branded the Xbox 360 as merely a "transitional product" this means they didn’t intend to have to put out a new console to compete with the next Xbox offering. If they put out something else to compete with the next gen from Nintendo and MS then they were wrong about the PS3 being future proof. 

That’s all I said and I’m right!

Oh, if you meant that they claimed PS3 will be able to fight whatever competitors for 10 years, well, I think their PR will have to swallow their pride and Sony will release 8th gen when needed anyway.

The PS3 will be supported for ten years, hence ten year life span. Regardless of whether another SCE hardware platform shows up before then, unless software support dries up completely and hardware sales drop off the charts, Sony will still be selling them in 2016.

As for it being a leading edge development platform by that time; ridiculous obviously.

But at this stage, neither MS nor SCE are particularly eager to jump the gun with yet another hardware platform, given the huge costs involved in starting a new generation and the trend everyone but Nintendo have adopted in selling hardware at a loss from the beginning.

If anything, the next hardware to be seen from any of the three console makers will be 1.5 model updates with new features at lower prices. The key drawback being that they'll only be able to play games that are still compatible with 1.0 hardware models.

Nintendo, more than MS or SCE are positioned best for this update first.

It will back out like Sega after releasing PS4.

Nintendo dominates the younger segment and Microsft wants the older gamers (and is willing to lose more money for it).

PS4 has no room to go.

 

PS4 to target...animals?
