Forums - Sony - Could the PS3 take the place of PS4 Next Gen?

S.T.A.G.E. on 26 August 2008

If Sony makes the same mistake next gen as this gen they are undoubtedly ignorant and need to be backhanded with a slick rubber glove.

That's like saying the PS3 is doomed because it was double the price the Wii for a long time. It hurt the PS3 but it's not killing it...and the PSP isn't dead either. It's just going to make little difference to the leaderi n the long run.

Also, the Wii being easier to make money on IS a sole reason. Not every company will make shovelware. The ones that don't will take advantage of the Wii's advantage in that case and they can still make a great game. That's like saying why isn't the DS getting only mingames/shovelware/whatever when it sells that stuff so well.

As for your last paragraph, big Wii games take 2-3 years of development. There are most likely some big games in development for it right now but unannounced.

Ah...

To be 13 again.

I wish I could see the world through rose-colored glasses like you do, but sadly...

Let's agree to disagree.  You believe they will come, even though 2 years into the life-cycle, they havent, and still want to believe they will for some reason, so, I'm going to let you keep on believing that, cause it's fun to believe in things, even if they have no chance of coming true.

And how do you know I'm wrong? Give me a real argument. This is as bad as the "just wait and see" arguments many Sony fans use.

Look, I can do the same...

You're looking through rose-colored glasses and I'm obviously right.

Didn't you just use the "wait and see" argument for games coming to the Wii?  Hypocritical much?

Anyhoo, I don't have anything to prove with you, I already said why I believe you're wrong in your post, and you don't believe that, and I'm not going to argue a point with you ad nauseum, when from past experience, it's hard for you to admit that you're wrong.  So in a year or so, we can have this same argument, and when nothing's changed, hopefully you'll change your tune then.

off-topic:

Nice new avvy.

People would still eventually want to make the move over to the next generation of consoles, which will be better. Sony couldnt rely on the PS3 for too long, they'd lose their audience, people would buy other consoles.

I don't think it's a wise move to make.

Holy hell. Blazinghead89 or whatever his name is is awesome. I've never seen someone so Pro Sony and so delusional at the same time.

And no, the PS3 won't take place of a PS4 next gen. That's just stupid. Next gen might be DELAYED for awhile, and I can possibly see a WiiHD/Wii2 coming in at around the same power, maybe even a bit more than the 360 PS3 in around 2011-2012 at the same $250 price point.
