That would be cool, I like Sony, they try so hard, it would be fun to see they having sucess again.


So you say PS3 is not successful?

I really doubt it - there are big 3 players in the game, plus I expect 8th gen market to shrink compared to 7th gen. Honestly, I'd be surprised if anyone manages over 100mil.

theres going to be 4........Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony, Valve now......

Well the steambox or whatever it will be probably won't be out till late 2014, unless there are new rumors I haven't seen and by then all the others will hopefully have good sales.  As popular as valve is I think they will have a hard time getting people to buy their console.  Same with Ouya.  But,  the steambox could  be this uber awesome powerful machince and everybody would want one.  

Everything is up in the air for now though

nothing will dominate like on ps2 level ever again but yea, playstation could once again lead next generation.

No, PS4 will never reach what PS2 did, but it will lead nextgen. The reason is the pricetag, it will be a lot cheaper at launch than PS3 was.

I'm also thinking it's going to lead next gen, unless Sony does something dumb like $599 or all that "no used game" stuff.

No, that is not what I meant, I love my PS3, but, I wish they were profitable again, so they can keep on the gaming business and all that.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Not sure I can see Valve pushing anywhere near amount of hardware to actually compete with big 3...but who knows.

*Thought.

And no, PS4 can not become a better seller than the PS2. That's not going to happen. Plus, the Wii U will be picking up sales around the upcoming Holiday's this year. The market will be very competitive.

Don´t know man, it will take a lot of change to make me want a WiiU. Anything can happen, of course, but I don´t know...

I wasn't talking about the members of VGC, but these casuals that Nintendo had with the Wii.
