No matter when would it be released i wont buy it day 1. Since most consumer electronics have problems when they are first released, i will wait for a slim or later revisions of the hardware.

01_855403

good point. i'll probably wait awhile for it, actually. *looks at ps3 and 360 at launch*

Though the PS3 didnt have much of a problem at launch because its hardware was perfectly suited for the games at launch. Then a system software update forced the old PS3's BD drive spin a lot faster thus increasingthe internal temperature=YLoD. While the Slim PS3's were already built upon that update.

I wont talk about X360's problem because this is not the place.

I've had my system since launce the 60gb fat. And it has less problems than the new slims from things I read here in Gamespot.

Anyway that's a side issue and not on topic. Yes I'll buy the launch PS4. Why? Because I can.

just because yours still runs great and you've seen reports of some having issues with slims doesn't mean they're better. the launch models are just much less prevalent and the ones with problems have mostly been taken out of commission by now.

Well that is true. The only thing I can think of is that people just don't take good care of their systems. Bad owners.

most of them DO take relatively good care. you shouldn't have to go overboard with how you treat it. if it overheats, it's bad manufacturing/design ;)

I took good care of my 60GB PS3 but that didn't stop it from dying. No problems with my slim whatsoever.

Who would that long for a new console? Nobody! Yes, I would buy a PS4 if it came out in 2013.

Nope. I'll do what I always do: Wait for it to come out and see how it does. In the meantime I'll be finishing up my PS3 library and by the time the PS4 actually has a decent and worthwhile library of games, a slimmer cheaper version will be released. That's when I'll go and buy one. :Dmegagene

Amen.

I made the mistake of buying a 40gb used ps3, wish i had a new slim version :).

Unless the ps4 really blows my mind like WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAHHHHHHH i think i'll stick to the above tactic :P

2014 isn't that bad for a new console. If I get one or not depends on how much exclusive content it has. If it has a lot of exclusive games I want, I'll get one. If not, I'll get a beefier PC and a Vita.

2014 is a perfect time for me.

Remember when PS3 was released? that's when Persona 3 & 4 came out. I'm still hoping that at leat one SMT series comes out on the PS3.

Er, 2020 is a bit too late, but 2013 is also too early. I don't know - based on history, a new generation should start soon but it still feels like these current generation systems still have a lot of potential, or at least, the PS3 does. The Wii and 360 might be at their limits now. So, if the new consoles do come out in 2013, I won't get one right away. Since Sony has the 10 year promise on the PS3, I can still play on that for a while and then wait it out for price drops, and to see which console will have the best new services, exclusives, etc. Because I'm telling you right now, if I had to get a console this generation on day one, the PS3 would've been my last choice. Also, we all know that a better, sleeker, cheaperversion of any system always comes out in the future.

Been a Ps3 owner since launch day but I wouldn't mind getting a new console even at the end of 2012. I'm a pc gamer too so I know what's possible, so the ps4 would definitely need obvious hardware improvements. RAM definitely. If anything but one of the latest nvidia chips is in it I will be disappointed.

When Sony does release Playstation 4. I will buy it. It is just a matter of when the PS4 is released. in 2012 or 2013/2014/2015 I will buy it.

I have bought Playstation 1/2/3 both Phat and Slim versions. So I will buy Playstation 4. Whenever it is released.

2020 is way too extreme. I understand what you're saying, though and I definitely won't be buying a next-gen console until 2014-15 at least!

I'll buy it when the price goes down. I always wait 6-12 months before buying anything new unless I KNOW it's going to be good. An example was Yakuza 3 and 4. After playing 1 and 2 I knew they'd be great.

I just bought my PS3 Slim last month and I have yet so many games to buy and play, so I think I would hold off till 2016/2017 atleast before I started thinking about a PS4, or even longer if the PS4 Slimmer version hasn't come out.

Day 1 for me. Haha. I bought the 60GB day 1 & even camped for it. Honestly, I would have to see more than 1 game that will be hitting us at launch WORTH the day 1 purchase.

Are gamers so bored with their PS3's that we need PS4 topics every other day : Well if I were to purchase a PS4 it will be in 2015, not later and definitely not sooner.

I remember when PS4 was being talked about here during the November launch of the PS3. (Sigh)

It drives me crazy when people do that on the game-specific boards.

"What will the system requirements for Battlefield 4 be?" "Where will Bioshock 3 take place?" "When will Rage 2 release?" etc etc

Going to wait at least a year or so before I decide to get a PS4. I didn't buy my PS3 on day one so I won't buy a PS4 on day one either.

Pretty much this. I'll also wait for the 'slim' or later model which inevitably fixes problems, plus it'll be cheaper.
