I wouldn't be surprised if the next Playslation isn't called PS4. 

The number 4 is spelled shi  in Japanese. And that word also means death. 

Just like here with many buildings not having a 13th floor, in Japan, many buildings don't have a 4th floor. :P


Unless they call it the Playstation Yon (which also means 4). Ha ha. =P

What is Sony dominating and how will they be doing it?  Is just an upping in specs alone, and avoid $599 alone what they need?  What exactly do you see them coming out spec-wise that is going to dominate sales?  You think upgraded Move will do it, or is moving away from the Playstation dual shock controller the answer?

Well they'll end up around 90 million at least with a platform that was $600, terrible to program for, had no big exclusives in the first part of its cycle (system sellers wise), and was a year after their main competitor (not discounting Nintendo but they go for a different audience).  So I would say elimate those mistakes.  They won't be $600 again, $500 at MOST and they won't have to spend so much on a disc drive and bitch to program for processor that no one will be able to utilize anyway except for a few first party games.  Which leads me to the fact that they are apparently using off the shelf parts to fix the second problem PS3 had.  Next, a number of first party devs will not have released anything in 2+ years with an easy to program for machine on the horizon so I'm thinking they're prepared there.  Finally they will launch this Fall most likely or MAYBE Spring so the will be at the same time or before MS fixing the fourth major mistake they made.  They will also have USPs in streaming, exclusives, PS+, and free online with this system.  Bottom line it's gonna be an even playing field this time and MS won't be handed nearly as many sales due to Sony overconfidence so they'll have a much tougher fight on their hands.  They better dominate the US because Sony is gonna be bringing it with the most powerful brand name in the video game world this coming gen.

You need to look at features and so on.  It is easy for individuals that are partisans to think their brand sells because of it being what it is.  But the reality now is, in places like the North America and England, the top brand is currently XBox for videogaming.  This is currently the largest market out there.  It just is not assured that people will buy it.  With the Vita doing what it is, it shows that Playstation alone as a brand isn't sufficient to lock down sales.  So, thus my question of what it is going to do, in order to be able to get the sales it needs.  What features is it going to have and so on?

I responded to your last sentence as if it were serious, with the rest as sarcasm, because it can be read that way.  Apparently I wasn't the only one who thought that.  I am curious, because individuals will believe it, what people do see Feb. 20th that Sony is going to dominate.

streaming, PS+, free PSN, awesome exclusives.  There is no comparison between handheld brand name and home consoles.  I mean Sony sold 0 handhelds during PSone and most of PS2 yet dominated home consoles.  They're winning home consoles now despite still being most expensive and having a failing portable.  Also Americans are very quick to change their minds.  They loved PS2 (like everyone) then Wii now Xbox.  Like I said a years head start and being super expensive are a bigger deal than anyone seems willing to admit.  That is huge and should have doomed the PS3 to failure, but exclusives, brand name, and free online saved them.  Also Sony marketing sucks I think that's the only thing that really needs fixed next gen, especially getting the word out on +

It'll probably still be called PS4 in NA and EU. Visit this page - http://us.playstation.com/ps4/ - It will redirect you to the official US PlayStation website.

That doesn't really mean anything. =P

I won't be surprised if it's called something else. Like "Playstation" with a pseudo-philosophical word next to it. =P
