[QUOTE="pundog"][QUOTE="Optusnet"] [QUOTE="pundog"][QUOTE="Optusnet"]They said PS3 will last 8-10 years, so I doubt their stubborn ignroant attitude will ever make a Ps4 anytime soon.Mandingo101
There is no way the PS3 will last that long, not with its current sales and competition. We all know that in about 5 years the next Xbox will be out, and most likely the next Nintendo console, so there is no way the PS3 could hope to sell for 5 more years after the competition already has their next gen systems out. The PS4 is definitely already in the works, just like Nintendo and MS are readying their next consoles.Hey, I only quoted what Sony said. There's still a chance PS3 can pick up - not a huge one, but it's still there. If high-profile games like MGS4 come out regulary enough, and developers tap into the PS3 what they can't on 360, PS3 may go on the up. Then again, consumers may not have the patience and may just get a 360.
PS4 is in development, but I doubt it'll be here before 2012, unless PS3 does worse than GC.Â
Well the sales wasn't so much my point as it was that both MS and Nintendo will be on their next gen systems within the next 5 years (MS for sure, Nintendo likely), and there is no way the PS3 can expect to sell (well anyway) for 3-5 more years with a whole other gen of consoles is available.why not ? ps2 is still selling after the other consoles died, the story was the same with ps1. sony always has the ace up their sleeve that is the slimline incarnation of their systems, its like a second launch and it prolongs the life of their consoles. and what is up with the lemmings putting this master debater stuff in their sigs now ? im not bashing but im just saying thats not really a title you give yourself you usually earn it, know what i mean ? First, I'm not a lemming by any means, just so far I've only bought a 360. Hopefully I'll have a Wii by the end of the year and a PS3 once the price hits $300 ($400 if BR beats HD-DVD). I got the master debater thing from a drama presentation I did back when I was in grade 10. Lets just say the teacher wasn't pleased.But this is just a year and a half after the first current-gen console from the competition in the case of PS2 sales. We're talking about 3-5 years of PS3 sales after the release of MS's and Nintendo's next gen consoles. I'm not saying the PS3 couldn't last that long, just that it will have a hard time if it does.
