Forums - Sony - VGLeaks: Here's the Orbis Road map!

"Hi everybody and Happy New Year !!!

We expect many great things for the new year.

To inaugurate the new year we have some new info about the next generation console manufactured by Sony: Orbis.

In this case we have the earlier roadmap.

2011 June/July – PC with Win7 64-bit and a “jailbroken” ATI r9 graphics card
2011 Sept/Oct – PC with Win7 64-bit and a “jailbroken” ATI r10 graphics card
2012 Q1 – disclosure to more developers
2012 E3 – potential unveiling window start
2012 Jul – devkits for engineers writing OS
2012 Q3 – first true hardware prototype devkits
2013 E3 – potential unveiling window end
2013 Q4 – launch"

Also Kagari over at Gaf said that sources have told her that the reveals are coming up before E3. PS meeting? PS Destination? 

oh and VGleaks are pretty legit it seems. Multiple respected/reliable users at gaf are saying that vgleaks had accurate information on the system specs as well. For those who are interested here's the latest set of specs for Orbis via Gaf

PS4 "Orbis"
- AMD APU Solution (Jaguar/Steamroller), 4 cores, Higher Clock than X720/Durango
Maybe AMD 8000 series GPU solution
- 2-4GB GDDR5
- Launch Fall 2013/Early 2014

Get Ready People :D it's coming

4Gb GDDR5? nice... big enough and fast...
4 cores for the CPU but will have a built-in GPU in the chip that can do lots of the work and sony did show already they have interest in GPGPU coders... looking good enough from the little info is given.



Proudest Platinums - BF: Bad Company, Killzone 2 , Battlefield 3 and GTA4

ready for the future? the future is now believe!



2013 Q4 Launch - Let's hope this is accurate.



Only 4gb of ram? Can anyone explain to me what that would translate to in PC terms since consoles don't have to process as much stuff? Would 4gb in console be equivalent to 8gb for PC?

They can't possibly hit 2013.



minimum 4gb plox. Can't wait for some concrete info

how come?



Those specs seem nice, I hope it has a decent GPU though, I can't wait to see what sort of games we'll get, E3 2013 is going to be an exciting one.

I'm no expert but over at gafs thread discussing all these leaks etc..the 4GB GDDR5 bit blew a lot of peoples expetations away. Like I said I'm not the best guy to explain these things :P but I believe even the gtx 680 from nvidia has only 2GB GDDR5
