I don't understand why people are wanting to talk about the PS5 yet.
PS4 is doing great and we still have so many great games to hit, let us talk about the PS5 when we need it.
Of course Sony has been developing it for a while now but there is no hurry.
After TLOU2 hits we may focus on the PS5 xP

The PS4 has been on the market for fucking... almost five YEARS. I think it's well overdo to talk about it.

I do believe it is time to talk about new PlayStation hardware, but I don't know if PS5 is where the focus should be.

Next gen should be based on technology and/or the market, not time. Looking forward I don't see technology that can deliver a justifiable next gen console, in the $400 - $500 price range by 2020. On the market side PS4 is still selling extremely well, it may not even have peaked yet. I don't think it would be wise to put out an underimpressive unit with the PS5 name just for the sake of maintaining the traditional console pace. 

I believe Sony should continue to keep the PS4 fresh a few more years. Keep updates coming to firmware, and give it one more upgrade to keep it strong against consoles, PC, streamers, cable boxes, etc., and then unleash PS5 with HBM and M.2 NVMe, which will be the most vital in creating the next baseline. Right now we are restricted by current RAM, and even more so by decades out dated mechanical HDD's. These would only be bottle necks to any new device deliverd in 2019 - 2020.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
