10 year lifespan doesn't mean they're not going to release a console in a year or two.

I think the authors of the articles words are being misconstrued  by the authoir of this post.

"Suggesting...wont be replaced soon" doesnt mean they're not goin to release a console in a year or two.

That's just conjecture. Kaz never said any such thing, nor anything to suggest that he was even thinking that.

The PS2 is on the market 12 years after its release. The PS3 can manage ten. It will, of course, be upgraded. If MCV is to be believed, we'll see the PS4 for the first time at E3 this year, which suggests a launch some time in 2013. The consoles will co-exist for three years, which isn't unreasonable at all.
