Errm because the games run and look better?
These are new games, so until you buy the game you havent actually played it. So why not buy a new bit of hardware to run the games better than the current hardware you were running. Why buy a new car while your old one still drives around... it's for the benefits that a new device gives you.
I am a gamer, I love playing and buying games, no offence to the PS3 but its long in the tooth and there is no way that I want to play an open world game with worse FPS and worse graphics, when I can spend £349 and get it running better. You could say the same argument applies for people who upgrade their PC's.. it's because they want better than what they've got. I also know that as time goes by, it's only going to get some games.
Why does it *need* to be just a new IP that drives the sales of new consoles. It's a new game if you havent played it.. no difference :)
I really don't understand why some people find this so hard to understand. :)

More importantly by the time the PS4 drops say a $100 in price i probably will have spend hudnreds of dollars on games. So why wait years price drops while you can play all the games you want to play on a new system right now AND all the games that will come in the future.

Yeah, I think £349 is a steal for a new console, and I appreciate it might be a lot of money to alot of people, but for me, it's my hobby and I enjoy it, and it wasnt a great amount of money in terms of hardware (especially considering iphones/tablets/PC - it's actually quite cheap).
The hard part is playing all my backlog on the PS3...
