After watching the Sony's conference, they already convinced me not to buy it. Why? The new exclusive games are cool but not impressive. Moreover, none of my extensive ps3 library, which is almost interely made of psn titles, will run in the new console while all third party titles will be also released to the ps3. Sony wants to convince me to leave my game collection aside and invest in a new console with a barren ecosystem: very few games, even fewer not playable in my current set. That is for a modest improvement in graphics. Perhaps Sony's executives didn't noticed that, unlike previous generation transitions, there is no big leap in graphics this time. As there is no way I'll hook two playstations to my tv set, I think the ps3 graphics are good enough compared to the price I would have to pay to upgrade.
The lack of backwards compatibility made me review my strategy. I am going to assemble a gaming PC and enjoy the fact that, in the long term, it might be cheaper due to the reduced price of software, and the fact I can always enjoy everything I once brought in that platform.
