Like he's going to come out in January and say "oh sure in June, we'll announce something..."

This proves nothing.

You are right and I can dream...but then again....when was the 3DS announced? I seem to remember it being long before E3

I didn't say they won't announce early, but that's only if they feel its better than the many leaks that are coming anyways. PS4 started having leaks in some capacity late last year and another one this year already.

But no company is going to say somethign new is coming until its right for them. At this point Sony's leaks have been minimal and they tend to ignore leaks until an actual show case. Just as they did with NGP/Vita. Include flat out denials, which they also did with NGP/Vita.

I'm not disagreeing with you here but did they actually deny anything about the psv?

The "NGP" was officially announced in January 2011.

Before that most people called it the PSP2.

Its obvious it takes a few years to build anything.

Jan 2009 (two years) denial of a psp2 with a touch screen http://www.techradar.com/news/gaming/sony-denies-touchscreen-psp-2-rumours-513731

and more to the point in June 2010 (only six months out) Sony denied it existed again... http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/threads/313612-CEE-CEO-House-denies-PSP2-rumours Yes I'm quoting from a blog that has reposted the full story, but the forum post has the source and I didn't want to sign up for an account to read it... nor continue searching for another source.

I think, however, this illustrates the point with at least Sony. I'm sure if I wanted to, I could find the same type of blatant denials from EVERY company regarding an upcoming device and rumors about it.

I'm sorry but none of the things you posted proved your point.

Sony would not confirm anything of the sort until the hw was finalized and we know for sure that it wasn't finalized for quite some time. It's true they would start working on it since earlier but that doesn't mean they knew for sure what the final product will feature. For example we know they changed the design of the hw quite a bit and it was also rumored to have downgraded some specs and features..actually I believe someone from sony themselves said they had to exclude some features they initially planned due to costs

second link is the same..no immediate plans. Which was true..the unveiling was a bit off and even at the unveiling they made sure to mention they are finalizing the hw. We didn't get confirmation of all hw specs until much later, closer to Jp launch
