LittleBigPlanet 3D - People think its the type of game that's done as much as it possible can, and wont evolve any further. What if they took it to the next level and made it fully 3D like Super Mario 64

Boom. Just what I was about to suggest. Heck, even the numbers work - it's home-console LittleBigPlanet 3, just stick a nice extra dimension in the game and a D in the title.
Anyway, franchises that I'd want to see continue on the PS3:
WipEout: Every single Playstation console has launched with a WipEout game (except the PS3, and look how that turned out!) HD Fury is the best installment since 2097, it introduced so many new gameplay mechanics since that time and showed that the series can still be going strong. Don't want to see it dropped.
Ratchet and Clank: I think this generation's R&C games showed that the series can change and do things differently (SMG-esque gravity mechanics, time-puzzle mechanics) while telling a great story and being true to the originals. Probably my favourite mascots for the Playstation at this point. Only thing is, I'd want Insomniac to continue making them - and I'm not sure that would be possible anymore. Still, here's hoping.
God of War: BUT! change things up. End Kratos' story with Ascention, start afresh like Jaffe's original plan for the series. Tell some new mythology.
Any of their JRPG catalogue: Seriously, Sony have a number of IP's they could ressurrect - Legend of Dragoon, Wild ARMs, Alundra etc. that I'd much rather have Japan Studio working on, rather than White Knight Chronicles. Heck, create a new one if they have to.
Aside from these 3, I'm pretty sure we're going to see new Gran Turismo, Uncharted, Killzone and The Last of Us on the PS4. GT is a money-printing machine so I have no problem with that. TLOU is hopefully going to be a hit, so it would be nice to see some more of them.
I'm actually kinda tentative about Uncharted. Naughty Dog have traditionally created a brand new trilogy IP for each Sony console, and I'd like to see them do this again for PS4 - I want to see what they can come up with. Having one team work on The Last of Us and the other on Uncharted wouldn't leave much room for innovation.
Killzone I'd rather they drop - the series has never appealed to me. But I doubt they will, haven't Guerilla already confirmed Killzone 4?
Anyway, what I want to see is about 20 new killer IP's just like we had for this generation. I'm excited about SSM's shooter project, I hope it's a colourful, fast-paced affair rather than the dark and depressing Resistance that we got this generation.
I'm excited to see new IP's from Sucker Punch, Media Molecule, Japan Studio, Evolution Studios & Bend - a full home console release. Hopefully they'll come up with someone good!
