What do think the PlayStaion 4, Xbox 720, Wii 2 be? Will they even use the names I mentioned before? Do you think any company will quit? Join?

The next Sony console will definately carry on the Playstation name. I reckon it will have a 500gb HD, 4gb RAM, and 1gb nVidia graphics card, and I think it will proably have a revised version of the CELL, maybe 16 processors instead of 8. I twill probably also inclde a revised form of the SIXAXIS, and maybe some extra controls similar to the Wiis controls. This will probably be released at the slightly lower price point of the PS3, counting inflation. This will carry on using HD disks.

The Nintendo one will probably have a new name, as most Nintendo ones do. I will probably have the equivalent power of the PS3. Will use flash memory, around 16gb, and HD disks. I think they'll also include the option of having a SIXAXIS style controller for many of their games, so I reckon Sony and Nintendo controls will be similar next-gen. It's price point will be similar to the 360 core version, relative to inflation.

Microsoft will hopefully quit the console war, as they have no idea abou making hardware. However, if they do carry on, it will probably be about 0.8x as powerful as the PS4, but have a cheaper version with half the HD space. They will also implement motion controls in some form, and use HD disks.
