I'm honestly expecting something along the lines of the PS2. $299 at launch, nothing too gimmicky, strong launch lineup; faster blu-ray drive; improved GPU but not as big a leap as the PS3 was for the PS2; keep it insanely easy to develop for like they apparently have done with the Vita; retain Move support as a control scheme for those that wish to use it with the occasional Move exclusive; allow DS3 controllers to still work with the PS4 along with DS4 type controls that may just have fixed up L2/R2 triggers and the ability to switch the position of the dpad and left analog stick at will. Refinements to PSN would be nice also, as to what those refinements could be I wouldn't really know.

PS4 should be all about the games as well as a refined online experience. Not like PS3 wasn't but Sony need to get their IPs to sell at least as well as Microsoft's do. This could be merely because in a whole year all there was for Xbox owners was Gears of War 3 and Forza 4 in terms of retail exclusives and the year before that Fable 3, Alan Wake and Halo Reach, so naturally after heavy marketing they'd sell well, but I think Sony needs to market a hell of a lot better. A lot of people still don't know that Resistance 3 exists and too many of their exclusives sell purely via positive word of mouth like LBP1 and Heavy Rain.

Sony are in no financial position to innovate technologically and should stick to entertaining us with their vast library of games, genres and third party support as they did back with the PS1 and PS2. Also getting Crash back would be quite awesome, I don't believe Activision will let Spyro go so easily as the recent game was quite profitable with those toys. Wouldn't mind tuning in to E3 2013 during the Sony conference to see something along the lines of, 'Guess Who is Back?' then suddenly Crash Bandicoot PS4 launch title. I highly doubt that though.

Sorry if this is a tad hard to read, I couldn't be bothered editing it at this time of day.

BLASPHEMY!!!!!

those toys couldn't have brought in THAT much profit
