I kinda don't see this happening either. Was actually thinking about this today.

I'm really surprised that God of War: Ascension is on PS3 at the moment. They did nearly exactly the same thing with God of War 2, which released in EU the month after the PS3 did (although obviously, not quite as bad here). It looks like Sony are going for "PS3 is finally profitable, Microsoft haven't announced new Xbox yet, lets make sure we get every penny from it". I can see why they're doing that because well, financial troubles and all that.

If I were them, though, I'd go fast and hard (tehehe) on the PS4. I'd get it out by holidays 2013, I'd have a launch lineup of Killzone 4, Gran Turismo 6, God of War: Ascension and hopefully Uncharted 4.

That would sell the thing like bloody hotcakes in the West. Obviously, they'd need something for Japan too (Japan Studio game? Nippon Ichi? Tales of Xillia 2 on PS4?)

And then I'd leave a few studios to finish up for PS3 - The Last of Us from ND team 2, maybe one of Media Molecule's IP's, perhaps a cross-platform Vita/PS3 WipEout from Studio Liverpool and probably Infamous 3 (if it were in fact in development) as well.

They kind of have an opportunity here to get into the next gen earlier and better than MS, especially since there's very little chance of there being new Halo, Gears or Forza games coming out by holidays 2013.

But whatever, I'm not a businessman so I don't know what would work best. And besides, this works better for me because it means no new hardware investment to play sequels to games I love!
