You would think Sony would be developing something in mind for the future. Like any company does.

I just question anything new they'll bring to the table at this point. I'm almost think Sony might be inclined to have a Linux OS version designed specifically for the PS4 this time, hopefully using the Firefox web browser. One can hope. But seriously, I can't fathom what big thing they can do besides upgraded hardware and possibly upgraded PSN (downloadable games).

PS4 needs to launch at the same time as the next X-Box if not before. I don't believe this generation will be lasting as long as Sony and Microsoft say. I expect new consoles in 2012 maybe 2013 at the latest.FlamesOfGrey
I doubt Sony could afford to release a new PS in 2012. Considering the losses they've taken so far this gen and then the losses you sustain when you launch a new console, you'd expect they'd need a few years of being solidly in the black before they'd push out a new one.

Surely we do not need a PS4 yet. PSP2 would be welcome though.

Yes because they haven't been making money from a handheld that has sold 60 million worldwide, and the most successful video game console in history with a 150 million userbase that after its 10th year on the market still sells 100K to 300K every month, not to mention all the software profits they've earned from PSP, PS3 & PS2 :?

all this article talks about is how theyre involving their developers into conceptualizing hardware, no specs are available at this point

all he talks about is conceptualizing the hardware and its pretty obvious that theyve been doing that ever since they finished the ps3, just like the started conceptualizing the ps3 as soon as they finished the ps2

this isnt really breaking news, its just some new insight to how things have changed since kutaragi left

I do think that is the psp2, however there has also been information before that Sony has been shopping around for potential new hardware for a ps4, it is nothing new tho, and the construction and finalization of such a console could take atleast a few years, before they are satisfied with the results.

But yeah, I do think Sony felt the pain of not launching at the very start of a generation, so while I do think it is a PSP2, they might really run for launch platform to the next gen... And that would annoy quite a few of the PS fans :\

Maddie_Larkin

I think the PS3's bigger problem was price, rather than timing. If they had put out a $299 system in November '06, they'd undoubtedly have outsold the 360 worldwide long ago. This is the same reason why a PS4 would be absolutely pointless as far as I can see, it would just be another overpriced behemoth no one would buy until they started stripping it of features and producing it for less money - and by that point they'd have already lost billions on launch consoles. Re-doing the same thing all over again in 2012 can't be a very profitable business model, not to mention they'd continue the cycle of receiving poor PR and losing casuals. After all, there's no way a capable successor could come in at a decent price in '12 when the PS3 + Move costs $399 already in 2010.

Haha looks like the whole market thing is hiting sony so hard. The ps3 has been in last place since launch in console market & things are worst now that the new xbox 360 slim is doing great even the japans likes the new xbox 360 consoles. For the handheld market the psp has been in the last place to ds since launch. I can bet that sony will be the 1st to release their next gen console so that they will capture wider developers & consumers from start so they dont fall in to the ps3 mistake again. But honestly sony psp2 will still fail to 3ds or else they'll want to do a shameless ripoff of 3d & touchscreen feature from 3ds.

They have no choice in the matter now, they have to make a new handheld. PSP can't hold it's own against DS and a 3DS. I really can't see it being a PS4. They've only just started making money with the PS3 and to start producing a PS4 would be suicide.

Of course they are working on PS4. They cant decide in 2013 or so and pull it out of their hat. Machines like this need time to be developed and properly tested to prevent high failure rates at launch:) Im sorry I couldnt help it.

Might be time for a new console era.
Besides the upcominggames mentioned at E3, are there any more?

Be sure that all 3 companies are making their next console.

Fail at what? Being extremely commercially successful like its predecessor, or fail to overtake the Nintendo handheld market? If the former, you're wrong, it'll probably do better than the PSP. If the latter, then you're most likely right... Nintendo sells handhelds almost based on name alone now.

Yea sadly the current consoles will probably last a long time, espically Sony as they are just starting to make a profit. If they did come out, it would not be a graphical leap similar to the PS2-PS3 ect. I'd say 2013 at the earliest. But since the PS3/360/Wii came out, the companies have already started thinking and developing their new systems.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"]

And Sony has confirmed that they're working on a new Playstation:

Sony is working on new hardware in the Playstation family, Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida has revealed The hardware is supposed to be an 'all new concept,' and is being worked upon behind closed doorsin full collaboration with Sony's studio network.

It's most likely that this new hardware is the long fabled successor to Sony's PSP handheld, which is now needed more than ever with the impending launch of the 3DS, successor to the bestselling line of DS handhelds.

Said Yoshida: "When Ken Kutaragi moved on and Kaz Harai became the president of SCE, the first thing Kaz said was, 'get World Wide Studios in on hardware development'.

"So he wanted developers in meetings at the very beginning of concepting new hardware, and he demanded SCE people talk to us [developers]."

When asked if the approach applied to new hardware, he added: "Yes, we are undergoing many activities that we haven't yet been talking about in public. Some future platform related activities."

Sony Computer Entertainment filed a new trademarks patent called the Playview, which was described as a 'Portable electronic device for receiving and reading text and images and sound through wireless Internet access and for displaying electronically published materials, namely, books, journals, newspapers, magazines, multimedia presentations.'

However, it added that the product would handle 'Computer game software recorded on optical discs'.

Sounds to be a PSP2, although it could be the PS4 as well. What do you guys think?

I just hope it's a home console rather than a handheld, I really would dig a PS4, and this generation is already five years old now. By this time, we should have some rumblings of the successors to the current consoles. What do you guys think?

Cellphone PSP? Hope it has 2 analogs!

This studio-collaborative philosophy at Sony has remained in place ever since, and was a core pillar of the design ideology for Sony's new motion controller, PlayStation Move.

"I'm spending more time on the hardware platform," Yoshida added, "connecting hardware guys to developers. That's my major role now, and Move is one of those new ways of developing platforms."

The first link tries to making a story out of it by trying to connect a patent filing to the original article.

All 3 are working in new hardware right now, I think that in the next generation the tree console will be very similar, the multipla developers are demanding that, the cost will be lower for they.

psp2 is going to have a really, really hard time competing with both the ipod touch and the 3ds, this thing is destine to fail..
