what do you think? Sony are showing their hand first, maybe they are hoping for a headstart. Get in a couple of months before microsoft launches the new xbox and nintendo releases the megatonz.

Sony is being very aggressive this time around, announcing first, buying Gaikai, and having several of their big first party studios (Seemingly) ready for launch titles. People will probably be a bit weary of buying an Xbox at launch after the heating problems that plagued the 360 at launch.

I can see that happening. With all these announcements and rumours it looks like they are determind to start first this time but then Sony's CEO did said that they want to let competitor MS start first.
Ehhm....  I dunno these people are crazy... no predictions from me!

SONY is getting dat Hype train early, but the PS4 and NextBox will probably launch at the same time.

They were aggressive with the PS3, they were making a loss on each unit up to only a couple of years ago. If they get the PS4 out a few months early, it would have to - Be released October, so time for hype before holiday season - Launch at a good price point - Have a great launch line up - Huge marketing drive Which won't happen A two month head start in January/February won't make much difference.
