PS4 will be another good leap from the PS3, why? because Sony will cut their losses by waiting on a release possibly till as late as early 2015, by then the economy may well be more stable and costs down, will give them also a chance to tie up a lot of big launch games, will also have a price point probably around the same as the others, giving Sony a better chance of sales, will be too far behind the Wii U but will run the X720 close thanks to European sales. expected sales by 2020 of about 60m or so

But I don't think Sony will release PS4 as late as 2015; they've said that they don't want to get left in the dust like they did when Xbox360 launched a whole year before PS3... ANd if they reallt do release PS4 in 2015... They're done and out for.

As you say, Sony have said that they don't want to be the last to launch their console, or at least not by much.

Think about it, RoryGamesFree, if the PS4 is launched in 2015 the WiiU will have been in Japan for more than 2 years! Which support can Sony expect for their console? Only their most loyal partners, the rest will have moved on to develop for Nintendo.
