My friend is coding for PS4 and has confirmed that the hardware is being worked on.
I have no reason to lie about something so well assumed.

So its not Sony, but as already discussed- they may wait a while to introduce the PS4.

Oooooh snap bruh: Sony Developing Cloud Gaming System?A new patent filing hints at a potential new Sony gaming solution.by Chris IaquintaMarch 30, 2009 - Ever since the remote gaming service OnLive was announced, the industry has been abuzz about the potential applications of server-based gaming and how the concept could become the future of gaming. Despite the extensive media exposure for OnLive, gaming mainliners Microsoft and Sony have commented little on the subject of server-based gaming, however, according to a new patent filing, Sony may be the first to strike back with a remote gaming service of their own.Sony Entertainment Japan recently registered a trademark for PS Cloud, a product or service expected to be Sony's venture into cloud-based gaming. As you would imagine, Sony has not formally recognized the filing nor commented on its intended applications, however, speculation has already begun, most of which centers around the most seemingly viable application -- a system that allows gamers to play and save games to a user account from any PlayStation 3.This may just be a precautionary move on Sony's part to combat competitors like OnLive, so we're taking the patent filing with a grain of salt.Nevertheless, the prospect seems promising.

It's Nintendo. They won't release a console this next generation, because Nintendo will officially call it a toy. Soon afterward they will admit that they are not in the same market as Sony and Microsoft after all.

If one were to blow out it would certainly be the Playstation. I think a PS4 could easily pull a Dreamcast.

This again? Why are some people so eager to see one of the big three go? This is most likely proper bullshit anyway, neither of them has any reason to fall back, if anything they'll go at it even harder than before since they're so close this gen and Nintendo probably won't be anywhere near as dominant.

Then why have both game division been buying or creating new game studios?

I don't really want anyone to stop making consoles, hope it's false, probably is

Ever thought of having a joint console?

Equal the end to console wars.

This is BS. All three will have new consoles with optical drives. Internet conections around the world (bar maybe Japan and a couple more countries) aren't good enough to allow OnLive/Gaikai to replace traditional consoles.

And lol at Mike Vorhaus that thinks Nitendo will be the one to get out. Has he heard about that little thing called WiiU?

Troll_Whisperer said: Zim said: I very much doubt this is true. However there is a part of me that looks at the brutal losses the PS3 caused and thinks there is simply NO way Sony could afford to ever do that again. However my prediction is simply that it will be a lower cost console and all the hardcore tech will be gone. It certainly isn't out of the realms of possibility for Sony to become third party in the future but I doubt it will be the next gen. My guess is a more reasonable PS4 and then Sony will decide what to do based on its performance. The losses you're talking about are nothing compared to what they have lost with their TV and Mobile Phone divisions. If they were to drop a division they should drop those (without them they'd be billions in the black). Anyway, I call BS on this Gaikai's prophecy of course.

Sony won't drop the mobile market now that they have bought Ericsson.

I can't believe it.
