Coming from someone who was a monk for over three years you should take this seriously:

Toughen the &$§? up man.

Lol, so true. Seriously, you can't come in here expecting roses and lollipops. 


who said i was expecting that? this is a thread about peoples opinions on what the PS4 will be like.. he said my opinion is wrong and its being rude with all his posts to me throuout the board. 

i love a good disscusion with other users, but that does not mean people should have an attitude because they are hiding behind a coputer. not really expecting Rosed and lollipops am i? lol just decensy 

Sure, I agree with you but I didn't notice him saying your opinion was wrong. The attitudes are what makes the forums fun, though. It would be dry without them.


Amen to that

 

 

And AMEN to your avatara!!!

PS4 will fail, nowadays people are more into the Xbox, its the better selling console in US and UK the two biggest countries. The only reason PS3 did well is because people who were loyal to PS2 waited.

But now the Xbox 360 doubled its sales from the Xbox whereas PS3 isnt even a third of the PS2. Seeing as both consoles have pretty much the same lineup anyway there will be a bigger shift towards Xbox next gen.

Xbox will dominate more in US and UK than it already does and other European countries will turn towards the Xbox just like UK did. And PS4 wont survive with just Japan.

PS4 will pull a dreamcast.


PS3 still has a massive market in Japan and i am from the UK and i will be hoping to get one. I must say though your evidence is worrying for the average sony fan but i think those loyal enough will stick with it



Wait... does this mean im not human?

the name? likely PS4. yr. of release? like 2014 unless MS release in 2013 considering Sony's E3 2012-2013 conference will be last. that will give them the time to counter if need be.

price? $299-$399. Sony will want to be cheaper then the comp. or at the least MS. power? PS4 will likely be more powerful then Wiiu and nextbox but not by much maybe by 5X.

Sony will lead consoles with new ip once again throughout the 8th gen, and maybe even buy quantic dreams?

JRPG's will be more present and Sony will lead in this area as well. i'm sure we'll see a UC4, and a Jak&Daxter game. and likely return/sequel's of many PS1 and PS2 games. UC4 will likely be late in the gen.

the Vita cross platform play approach will be the major key in extending the life of PS3 and making PS4 a house hold name and the games that will come with it via cross platform play.

i think PS4 will have 4-10g RAM, and a very powerful CPU, GPU. i'm not a tech guy so i'm not sure what else can be done other then bluray having more space/more then 93g?

i think Sony will lead next gen in everything including 1st place but they won't always have it. it will be a battle for sure.

move will be present but only in the form of 2 controllers with analog sticks. PSeye will be intergraded into the console and be more advanced while getting allot of support.

Sony will go with IBM again and maybe even go with IBM's brain mimicking processor?, or an improved version of the cell. or maybe they'll keep the cell and streamline the technology to make it easier on dev's.

i hearrd something about a 16-32 core processor?

augmented reality from the console mostlikely but it could be from the controler. the OS will be made by google.

THIS is the console I want!!!

when you think about it its the most logical. also it likely won't be named PS4 in Japan but it will be in the rest of the world.

"4" is only an unlucky number in some contexts (mainly dates), not including numbering things.

srry i don't deal in Japanese superstition. i deal in Japanese myth.



Name:
PS4

Price:

$399(Sold at a loss likely; one model configuration) in FALL 2013

Hardware:
I'm not sure but wouldn't the PS4 require Cell processor architecture in order to be backwards compatible? Anyway updated 8 core Cell or 16 core Cell.

Im not sure why people want loads of RAM on a gaming console. Anyway my prediction is at least 1gb for CPU XDR2 and 2gb of gddr5 for GPU (Assuming Sony sticks with Cell and dedicated RAM)

GPU wise i remember reading about a rumor about all consoles featuring ATI GPU's, either way i think it will be in the field of a gtx 560/6870

Faster BD drive (8x-12x)

Like Marcus said, integrated PSeye; in some form ready for complete motion controls.

500gb HDD

Wireless N/Gigabite port

Games on Launch or in 1st Year:

Killzone 4

Uncharted 4 (Sony Bend)

Gran Turismo 6

LittleBigPlanet 3

Santa Monica IP

 

 



e=mc^2

Gaming on: PS4 Pro, Switch, SNES Mini, Wii U, PC (i5-7400, GTX 1060)

To get a good indicator I think that it would be a good idea to look at what Sony did with the PS Vita. They used industry standard components which provided a powerful handheld console at an affordable price. They also went with a standard architecture and away from the exotic ones from the past.

Basically Sony has learnt from their past mistakes and is now working with developers to provide a powerful console which is also easy and hence cheap to develop for. I expect this trend to continue with the PS4 which brings us to my predictions.

1. Sony's next console will be called the PS4 (Safest prediction of all) .
2. RRP $399 for entry level SKU and $449 for premium SKU.
3. Either an upgraded Cell or a 6 core standard processor, a faster Blu-Ray drive with at least 4gig of standard ram and a custom NVidia graphics card. Wifi included in all models with built in harddrive also in both models.
4. I predict the PS4 will be on equal footing with the next Microsoft console when it comes to graphical prowess and will obviously be far more powerful compared to the Wii U.
5. I predict that it will launch end of 13 in Japan and early 14 in the west.
