I agree just like COD2 and COD3 were on old and new alike.  There will be a lot of simultaneous releases for both.  I also think we'll see upscaled Skyrim and Battlefield for Xbox3/PS4, but we'll still see sell out demand for the systems considering they'll be the first next-gen systems that are noticably more powerful than the PS360.  If they release at the same time I don't think either will pull ahead because they can only manufacture so many in that period and systems usually sell out.   If they're the same price we could see a dead heat in America after Christmas 2013 which would be a huge change from this gen.  Also WiiU sales could suffer if two systems launch to suck up potential sales.

I don't know, I think it is really dangerous releasing two consoles so close to each other.   I personally don't think both of them will be releasing in 2013 but if they do hopefully they can stay a few months a part instead of launching the same month.  If they do they will hurt each other including themselves.  If they release with a decent difference then both should sell out fine as long as they both have a good launch game. The problem is Sony doesn't have a big American title besides Uncharted.  From the rumors sony is relying on established sequels too and I personally think that is a bad idea.  The beginning of the gen is when you want to grow new franchises.  Whatever Santa monica is working on hopefully itll make it at launch because Sony needs an american title.

Guerilla, Media Molecule, and Suckerpunch have been quiet for awhile and Sucker Punch concluded infamous pretty decisively with the last game so they are the most likely to announce something new.

Parents won't be buying $400+ consoles for their kids when there are $100-$250 alternatives....I don't think any of the consoles will sell out either.

I'm just going off of rumors.  But yes they are all a big possibility with a new IP.  I personally think Guerilla has a good chance of making a hit game.  They were close with Killzone 2.  I haven't seen enough from Media Molecule to predict anything with them.  Little Big Planet 1&2 was really good but if they want a break away hit they will need to expand as well.  Don't hate, but personally I think Sucker Punch is over rated and aren't they making Sly 4?

Remember I'm just talking about the american audience, which is why I think Guerilla has the best chance because they have already shown they can make a good FPS and with excellent graphics.  I'd personally like to see them go into the TPS genre and see what they can do. But the rumors are pointing at KZ4.

Nevermind already mentioned

I want a new gen but I still feel like this last gen has so much life left in it. The best selling console in recent times is still expensive. I wish MS and Sony would say naw to Nintendos pressure.

Have you played a multiplatform game recently? The limits on these consoles have been showing for years now. We are long overdue for a new generation.

I agree Media Molecule is somewhat unproven but so far they've done well.  Sanzaru (the people who did Sly Collection) are working on Sly 4.  Sucker Punch hasn't announced anything since Infamous 2.  ND is 2 teams now so the one that's not doing Last of Us has had some time since U3 to get something done in time for next year.  I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple studios too so we'll see.

Joke? Multiplayer games have has been the same shit since CSS
