I'm thinking it takes longer to make the games and more money, therfore if game makers had more time to get used to the hardware and such then they could put out more games faster and have more originality instead of the tried and true method.

This is especially true in PS3 cause I think it could actually last another generation to be honest. And think about it, how long and how much will it take to produce next gen xbox and ps3 games??

I think we still have another 3 or so years with the current gen before the next gen comes out. Except maybe with the wii... the last gen graphics have not aged well...

I'm already 100% happy with the current visuals in games. If they can make that even better then great but I see no need for a new console till 2012 or later.

I'm confused, which generation? You named a console from two.

You can bet that the PS3 still has at least six years ahead of it. Hell, Persona 4 will be released at the end of 2008, and I'll be picking that up.

I can only hope that the 360 follows suit but considering that the Xbox only had 3.5 years of first-party titles I can't really be sure.

I'm pretty sure Sony will keep the PS3 alive for a few more years. That's why I bought one.

In my opinion Microsoft will be making another xbox in 3 years. As for the PS3 it still has a lot of years ahead it, graphicly its the top of the line and its going to be hard to make major improvements on it. Just as the PS2 which has survived 8 years, and is still great.

I think PS4 would come out on 2013 while the new XBOX on 2011.
