| scottie said: I'm excited about the next gen, but I shant be buying an 8th gen console until I finish uni I suspect, so that's Christmas 2011 Regardless, I don't see any point the next gen being that soon. For Ninty, why would they when they're making so much money on both DS and Wii For Sony, the parent company will want the games division to recoup alot of lost money before they spend big on R&D For MS, it's still too soon, but not by much. I envisage the 720 released in 26 months (November 2010) For Consumers, It's much too soon, leave it a bit longer, let some of my favourite 6th gen games get sequels and allow technology to advance more For Apple or any other company, I would still say 26 months as a bare minimum |
I think most people know that being the 4th console = loosing alot of money for nothing. I would almost bet my house on no company entering the disc based home console business while MS, Nintendo and Sony are making them. Look at all the failures that have come out of 4 console eras. They are spectacular.
I own all three current consoles and a great gaming rig, now thats out of the way.

"Why post something like this when all it will get is PS3 owners blinded to reality replying? BOTH THE PS3 AND BLUE-RAY WILL NOT LAST 3 YEARS! TECHNOLOGY CHANGED TOO FAST!"
"is it Wii FIt that has sold as many as PS3's sold? Thats a LOL Look at the total sales of software is it just me that sees Nintendo titles hitting 10m+ and you say they arent making a difference? Another LOL!"
"Hell, with all the negative hype Sony spin, people just aren't interested cost is too high and to get the true HD experience (1080p, 7.1 surround) you will need a $1000+ system. THAT IS GOING TO DO IT IN A RECESSION! PS4 will not happen"
