I also said earlier, that the PS3 was going to have a 10 year life span?

That's what I heard when then ps3 came out. And I honestly think that Sony will wait at least till early 2014 to 2015 for the ps4.
 
^^^ 👍

By "early on", I meant that Sony Reps might've mentioned the 10 year lifespan a little after (about a year or two) the PS3 released. People were really skeptical about that. Now, it seems even more plausible.
 
It has also been reported many times that indeed the PS3 has a ten year release cycle, but so did the PS2 (article here). Just because they release a new machine doesn't mean they stop production of the previous version, and it also doesn't meant that they will wait until the 'ten year' mark to release either. PS2 was first released in 2000 and still in production in early 2011 (and possibly now), a good 5 years after the release of the PS3.

The ten year cycle 'minimum' doesn't mean that is when they will release the next console, just that Sony envisage that is the base lifespan of the console before they consider winding up production of it. Demand will dictate its ultimate lifespan. They would be mad to rest on their laurels until 2016 before releasing a new console but I don't think we will see a PS4 in the next 18 months either.
 
Well the way I see it and have read articles stating the same thing WII U , and a new xbox are CONFIRMED not speculation so to compete in the market Sony's PlayStation4 could be released in late 2012.
 
I'm happy for it to last as long as it can.

I'm with what these guys said completely.


Motor Toon GP was awesome, I loved that game, played it a lot.

I found that when browsing PD pretty cool also :

PD collaboration
They've slowed down in the past FEW years. Last thing they did was "develop" a supercar. It's too bad that no one will ever see it on the streets, again.
 
I predict there will be some sort of overlap like with the PS2. There will probably be games made for both PS3 and PS4 like there was modern games available even on PS2 up until recently.

Personally I would rather have the next generation sooner rather than later, tech is moving a lot faster than it did between the PS1-PS2 and PS2-PS3 era's. I reckon the Xbox will drop sooner than we think so Sony better be on its toes.

As for the PS3 not being maxed out yet, well it pretty much has as Naughty Dog did with Uncharted 3. That's the most your ever going to get graphically out of the system.
 
PS4 is coming out end of this year/beginning of next year.

Logic, the PS1 came out in 1994, the PS2 came out in 2000, the PS3 came out in 2006. There are all six years apart so logic would dictate that the PS4 comes out this year

That doesn't mean that the PS4 will follow suit. Now do I have to remind you about the part of the AUP regarding not posting false material? You can guess when it's coming out all you like but you might want to word it a little differently.

As to the OP, please refrain from using this type of thread title. It's just plain annoying.

OK , sorry. I guess I was wrong. I wasn't doing anything against the AUP because it says:

You will not knowingly post false information.

Which you did. You claimed that the PS4 will be released at the end of this year or the beginning of next year despite not having any evidence to back it up.

Guess all you want, but make it clear that it is just that. A guess.
 
No, they are working on GT6 right now and the PS4 is coming out end of this year/beginning of next year.

I have a source that is close to Sony that has suggested to me that they are also working on a new Gran Turismo Portable for the Vita. We might even start hearing details about this sometime later in the year.

Sony has already come out and said there will be no PlayStation 4 announcement this year, so that rules out 2013 for a PS4 launch.

Quite frankly, I'm not expecting the PS4 for another few years. I think you quoted the wrong person.

No, I was agreeing with you. I was just backing up what you were saying. There won't be a PS4 for another few years.
 
They made (Excluding GT Series):
Motor Toon Grand Prix (Released in Japan only)
Motor Toon Grand Prix 2
Omega Boost
Tourist Trophy
 
Well, click here. Or simply click here. Also, any of the pictures you find are probably just renders of it as I can't find any solid evidence of what it looks like.

Is that a legit website made by Sony? I wouldn't make a console made of glass if I were the designers, just takes a 10cm drop to put a crack in it. And it will suck really badly to get rid of my PS3. Would have to sell it, all the games and a couple of other things I don't need anymore just to buy it. The PS4 looks very expensive.

EDIT: I have a DFGT, and I just wondered where is the USB cable going to go? It would suck really badly if I had to buy a new steering wheel too.

Sony said straight up they have no intentions of releasing a console any time soon.

Do you know the timescale of SOON.
Anything from 2 months to 5 years.
Just ask anyone who waited for GT5.
 
They said it won't be for a fews. So yeah, I do actually.
 
I want PD to start making a new other series of car game like NFS sort of, just to see what they would do with it.

That is without a doubt, as I reflected on earlier. The biggest argument is just when that overlap will occur :)

Sony are notorious for their lack of 'true leaked' information. We only heard of Vita 16 months before they released it yet it would have been in pre-production for some time. We have not heard too much in regards to PS4 apart from a "slip of the tongue" in mid 2011. Was that intentional to start the rumour mill going, or was it an accidental 'leak'?

Yes, it has also been mentioned in the same way that it would be undesirable to release PS4 too long after XB720, but it didn't really hurt the PS3 too much when you look at sales vs. release dates either.

Sorry if I am taking (or have taken) this thread too far off topic.

Who else would buy a Tourist Trophy HD? Even just the standard Tourist Trophy release on the PSN store but the 1080i version Japan got would be awesome.
PLEASE PD!

Yeah I really want to try the game now.
 
How come any thread I open or see that has anything to do with TT2 gets put on lockdown? There is obviously interest from the gt5 community, and they could be very much in common with each other. They could quite possibly even be the same game with a dlc bike pack.
