You sure all these studios will announce/confrim these games? Or is that just your opinion...wait it is, nvm. Anyway I think the opposite, I think Sony will put more effort into their PSV and PS4 lineup, and their PS3 lineup will dry off. I think The Last __ and ___ will be the last two AAA games on PS3.

WTH? PD will make a PSV/PS3 cross platform title? They only make GT games, and GT PSP sold terribly.


PS4 will not launch til late 2013 at the earliest. Sony won't make any moves before having a couple profitable fiscal years under their belt with PS3. The Last of Us shows there is still quite a bit of juice left in the PS3.

There is no doubt they are working on PS4, but they will not make a move until they see something more concrete from Microsoft. Because they know what they have. They know that the PS3 continues to increase in sales every year and games have been improving their sales on the platform for the past 4 years as well. Sony London Studios, Polyphony Digital, Zipper Interactive, Team SoHo and Sony Online Entertainment are all likely working on engines and tech demos for PS4, while the other studios are trying to milk more profit out of the PS3 that still has time on its hands.

To be honest, I am still surprised PS3 and 360 are getting peak sales. I feel all the great games have seen enough iterations, but kudos to Sony for annoucing The Last of Us. That looks to be a great new IP.

I think PS4 and NextBox will announce this E3. Wii U is coming in fall 2012, they can't have no replacement console announced when it launches.

I know more games will come on PS3, but I don't think we will see anything spectacular like Uncharted or GT. Yess TLoU is Naughty Dog, but it;s by their second internal party, and this is that party's first game. I think it will be great, but like many PS3 exclusives, sales probably won't be too spectacular. I'd predict 3-4 million, above the Killzones, but below Uncharted 2 and likely 3.

Like I said before, I think Sony will be releasing a lot of new IP's on the 360, leaving nearly all the established brands for early releases on PS4. The only established brand I see which could possibly come back to PS3 is Killzone.

I don't think gaming will be based around the old generation lines. Sony and Microsoft can squeeze more at of their current systems. Nintendo can't keep pushing the Wii. They have to launch a new system and hopefully keep as many of those consumers as they can.

Look at Kinect and Move. They are both doing very well because it's capturing the people who are in the Wii's market. If the Wii U can't outperform the PS3 and/or 360 in terms of gameplay performance (online has to be there for the Wii U, without it they won't match the sales that the Wii managed).

Sony is constantly announcing brand new IP's. It doesn't matter where we are in their system's life. When a concept is create and gets the green light. The game gets made. Simple as that. God of War was released in 2005, PS3 launched in 2006. I believe that The Last of Us will release in 2012 and then in late 2013 Sony will launch PS4. But also think about what has happened in the last week since The Last of Us was announced.

Sony has not let up with the information coming out about the game. I believe Sony will heavily advertise TLoU.
