I hope this one kills the stupd 10-year-plan meme. So basically Sony is planning to rush the market with a ps4 that's basically a bumped up-ps3, AKA 100% BC so they can shut off quick the ps3 and pull off a fast and smooth transition ala GC-Wii.

 

Just like the Ps2 killed the Ps1 or the Ps3 killed the Ps2? Wait, doesn't Sony always support their older systems after their new one launchs? So while Ps3 is still selling and having games released for it Ms will dump their 360 like they did with xbox and force people to upgrade and spend another 400$.

 

The PS1 and PS2 dominated the market. They sold over 100 million consoles each and netted Sony a substantial profit. The PS3 has been a money pit and currently resides in third place. When will Sony fans realize that a consoles market share determines its level of support after its successor launches. A dominant first place console gets strong support after its replacement is launched. Second and third place consoles essentially fade away a year after they are replaced.

You are quick. Posting at work always seems to put me at a disadvantage.
