[QUOTE="bingbaocao"][QUOTE="2beers_in_hand"] Sure... You just keep telling yourself that, and maybe one day it might become true.jshaas
what makes you think it will last long if doesn't turn a proffit?

First of all, Sony started breaking even on the PS3 a few months ago. They expect to start seeing some profits sometime this year. ON TOPIC... you do realize that for the next Xbox to compete with the PS3 MS would have to pay Sony to use the Blu-Ray technology. This will not happen. Why would anyone pay the competition for their tech?? Since they won't, MS will have to use DVD again... well that format has reached it's potential, and nobody wants to switch discs with every game. This is why I think the next consoles we see will run mostly on ditigal copy... even now you can get any song or any movie ditigally... it's only a matter of time until games are the same (some are already... SOCOM, Warhawk, Burnout, etc.). On Demand will also be a big part of the next gen.

lol you do realise that outside of the console war (and system wars) that Sony and Microsoft are not partiularly big competitiors. Many of the media codecs, even one used in Blu-ray are licenced by Microsoft and by your logic, I'm sure windows wouldn't be allowed on Sony Vaio laptops?

Also, to the few people saying that its too early to release a new console yet. You're correct but the TC isn't talking about Microsoft 'releasing' a new console at E3, the question is whether they announce something at E3. If they release some information, they may not actually release the console for another 2 years :lol:

there are strong rumors that M$ is planning to announce the new Xbox this year at E3, the jump between the original xbox and the x360 wasn't that big, so naturally i am not expecting so much but M$ now realizes that Sony can bring new ideas and strong hardwared like bluray and the Cell so M$ should consider that.

if the rumors are true, then we shall see the PS3 aganist x72 face to face for at least 2-3 yrs ( Sony is still commited to 10 yrs life span), does the PS3 have any chance in this compitition? will the companies still support it despite its hard developmnets? is it going to sell as Sony expects?

Yes just like there was not much difference between PS1 graphics and PS2 graphics people said...Then when you fired up a PS1 game and looked at the blocky muddy textures, characters comprising of 13 polygons and such, you realized people were talking out there a$$..Kind of like you are with this, "not much diff between xbox and xbox 360. man, try going back and looking at some old xbox games, compared to RE5, Gears 1&2, Kameo and such, then you will refrain from embarrassing yourself with dribble like that.

u only said one thing right the difference between PS1 and PS2 is huge, and this is becuase PS1 was so weak, on the other hand the original xbox was a powerful machine, i really hope you get it.

I think the next Xbox will be a beast of a gaming machine at the time of release, but the leap won't be as big as the difference between XBOX and X360. The biggest improvement will be in the GPU power and the amount of RAM. The CPU will probably be similar, but more cores. The PS3 at that time will probably still be improving itself in terms of graphics. But no....it can not compete with a next gen machine, unless it's a Nintendo..hehe.

This gen Sony made alot of mistakes. They tryed to get into the CPU marked with the Cell, while trying to win the BD vs HDDVD war, and at the same time making a gamemachine. They won't make these mistakes with the PS4, it will probably be more aimed at gaming and will be powerfull enough to have amazing titles. But then again, Sony could sit the whole next generation through without releasing any PS4, to maybe get a head start the generation after.

If they do for the love of god I hope its not called the "Xbox 720"... they need to break the trend of using the same name consoles like "****2, 3, 4..." so on and keep each new console fresh.

Isn't it only the Playstation brand that is like that? Nes, Snes, N64, gamecube, wii... xbox, xbox 360... Dreamcast Playstation, playstation 2, playstation 3, even older consoles don't have that :S As for the Topic: I HIGHLY doubt Microsoft will announce a new console...

The ps3 wont have to compete with the next x box, because the ps4 will be competing with it.
