When do you think we will see the next gen consoles such as PS4 or Xbox 720?
They've been talked about for ages, was just wondering when we can expect some info on them?

I think the next Xbox will come out in 2014 and I expect to see it at E3 next year.

I'm hoping so. The Xbox seems to have been out for a long time now! Will it be HD/3D do you think?

I think the next Xbox will come out in 2014 and I expect to see it at E3 next year. I think Microsoft is going to want to do a lot of what they did with the 360, meaning announce + launch the same year, so I think it'll be 2013, especially since Sony apparently is in rough enough of a financial state to prevent 2013 from being feasible for them. I'm hoping so. The Xbox seems to have been out for a long time now! Will it be HD/3D do you think? What do you mean by HD/3D? Of course it will be HD, the 360 is HD. With how negative the overall response has been to 3D, I think they'll support it like the PS3 does but it certainly won't be a mandatory feature of every game like HD is for the 360. |

I'm interested in seeing what they'd do with next gen consoles, I'm not sure I'm ready for them though. I presume we'll get word next year.

I think I read somewhere Sony said the ps3 still has about two more years left on its lifespan.

I think both will come out around 2014, although I doubt there will be many huge differences between either. It'll come down to things like exclusives, which controller you prefer, what your friends have etc. This generation doesn't have huge differences, but next generation will be even less pronounced as Xbox likely adopts Blu-Ray, PS4 likely supports Cross-Game Chat etc.

I'm thinking Xbox in 2013 and PlayStation in 2014.

I'm looking forward to the new next-gen Xbox console but I'm really not in any rush. The 360 is still good enough for me for now and I'm really glad it's lasting as long as it is. My biggest concern about the next-gen Xbox is whether or not we'll be able to transfer all our Xbox live achievements, games, info and stuff onto the next-gen console. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to do that, but you never know.

Achievements likely wouldn't even need transferring since they're just on a server. Games gets trickier; that will depend more on what Microsoft does hardware-wise as far as supporting backwards compatibility. DLC will be dependent on the games, obviously, except for music games (they often have exorbitantly strict licensing). Save data seems possible too since Microsoft already has a system to transfer data from one system to another. All they'd have to do is make sure the next Xbox supports the 360 data transfer. |

Sounds like the next Xbox will be called "Xbox 8".

Nah, they just released a new 360 Version and 360's are lasting well, so no hopefully not.

Truthfully, I don't think I've ever been more content with a batch of consoles.
This is the first time I've ever owned all three in a given generation. It's quite a privilege, and not something I'm in any rush to give up.
I got my 360 at launch, my Wii about six months after launch, and my PS3 just under two years ago to replace a faulty Blu-Ray Player. The 360 is still by far my favorite, and the one that I consider my primary console. I enjoy it, and nearly all of its features enough that I'd be perfectly content for at least another couple of years.
I will undoubtedly jump on the new X-Box, and likely the new Playstation. Nintendo is going to have to do a lot of work to convince me to spend my money on the Wii U, though.

I can't really see what they can add. The graphics would have to have a huge overhaul. The controller can't have much more as we've only got 10 fingers, wireless is here, HD/3D is here, I don't know where they can go.
