We can't really talk too much about next generation console plans, but I think it's safe to say you have a Wii U coming out and there will be another new console coming and we expect that they'll be very successful.

Nothing was quoted from the conference call regarding next year, but I foresee another 360 happening. In other words an announcement and a late year release.

I won't be jumping on the XBOX train too early again. Halo 5 won't be out for another 3 years.

So I'll make due with my last gen systems, Wii U & PC

But 360 is still pretty pricey considering how old it is, I just feel like they should be cheaper before the 720 comes out. Would love another next gen console next year, we need them.

I would say the Nextbox but it seems like a bad time to launch it. Just released Halo4 and next year Gears will get a new release would make me wonder what big launch games it would have.

And the PS3 has way too many exclusives releasing next year and I doubt the PS4 will have BC so that will only hinder the overall software sales of all those games.

Probably the 720. 2013 looks like the final rattling breath of death for the 360, ala the Wii.

LOL @ anyone that votes PS4...

Sony needs to be more worried about themselves financially rather than putting out another gaming console. Even their credit rating is just now lowered to one point above junk status.

what makes you think that the PS3 will keep selling after 2 next gen consoles are outs in the market? If the sales of the PS3 slows down and the PS4 launches late and fails to pick up steam I think Sony will be in real trouble. And when I say "real" I mean out of business literally.

Don't you guys think before you write?

Given Sony's track record, I don't doubt a blatant CTRL+C, CTRL+V for that controller. MS seems like they're going in a different direction with their SmartGlass functionality, allowing ANY touchscreen device to be used to interact with a game, thus I don't think they'll adopt it straight on like Sony would.

I never said that the PS3 will keep selling; I'm just talking about Sony as a whole. At the rate that Sony themselves are going, either they'll have to pull a Nintendo like they did with the Wii, or they'll have no choice but to put PS4 on the backburner & drop out of the gaming division entirely.

Xbox 720 is definatly coming, there has been kits given for a while now, 343 said they are working on Halo 5 even

Crossel777

15-20 games out of 2000+ is 85% ?

Are you sure you are doing the math right ?

Witcher 2, Fable 2-3-Journey, Halo 3-4-Reach, Mass Effect 1, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon etc etc are all exclusives and some of the best games around

720 no doubt. I am really excited to see it, not because I care much about it (at the moment at least), but because I am wondering what the tech and such will be like in comparison to the WiiU. A lot of devs seem to be building engines that run on current consoles, but run to their full potential on PC and likely next gen consoles. So it is not inconceivable that PS4 and 720 share multiplats with WiiU, though WiiU would likely look worse. Who knows though!

I don't think you have to be that high up in the video game food chain to know that there'll be a new Xbox and PlayStation coming in the next year or so, when exactly is something I don't think they can speculate exactly on, my personal feelings is MS will gauge their release around Sony's.

I guess we shall see what the WiiU manages this winter and early next year because I have a feeling, if the WiiU isn't much of a sucess, Sony and Microsoft may give these current gen systems another year to try and maximise profitability. So by the WiiU having poor techinical power, it could really hurt nintendo because effectively, the PS3 and Xbox360 are almost the Wii's of the next gen.

Maybe the tablet will prove to be popular for gaming consoles, however I think having almost a purely focused tablet controller for gaming as the main controller is a big no-no. It should be a well developed extra.

whiskeystrike

Nextbox came out in 2005, known as the 360. I get what you are saying though since everyone is saying to quote them on it and predicting the exact same thing.

I remember buying two 360's that launch day, very excited. In fact, I dropped close to a few thousand, buying two Wifi adapters, many games, including my two purchases of Perfect Dark Zero.

That game ended up being awfully disappointing, but a year later I enjoyed GeoW1 which I bought two copies of to play with RL friends at BBQs.

Very possible they would make big titles like those backwards compatible with 1080p and able to play mp with 360 users.

Hmm...Activision has been in bed with MS for most of this gen so I'm guessing it will be the xbox 3.

It wouldn't take much to have a much more powerful system than the Wiiu and release it for 350-400$

Mostly will be the next Xbox that comes out next year but both systems will likely be announced at E3 2013 with PS4 launching spring 2013. Too many exclusives for PS3 in 2013 to release another console.
