The only part that the console makers have definite control over the span of time between the release of new consoles. This time is usually about 5-6 years. This has been the release cycle since the late 80's. I don't expect it to change now. How long a console sells after that time is another story. A console maker will continue to support a console as long as it sells. The 10 year lifecycle comments have always been bullshit. It has never meant that the PS4 was going to come out 10 years later because the PS3 is so awesome and Sony will only produce and support PS3's as long as people are buying them. Since Microsoft owns the chip designs for the 360, now they have a choice as to when then end production. To sum it up, Kaz is talking out his ass.
I give this thread a 9.3.
Thank god for the disable signatures option.
