The last console 'stop-gap' between generations was the Dreamcast ,wasn't it?

Well in fairness, MGS4 gave the player the option to play their style of play, and choosing the stealth option was always far more satisfying & rewarding decision than the run & gun option.

Which is pretty similar to the choice given in the Hitman series, which has always given the player the option to pick their own gameplay preference.

However some details that recently emerged about Hitman Absolution have me concerned that it is going to follow in ...

The Opera house level in Blood Money & The Meat King's Abattoir in Contracts are Hitman classics!

The Witcher 2 is a great game & CD Projekt are excellent devs, but...

If CD Projekt broke any contractual agreements that with Namco Bandai then they should be liable.

How is it that game studies are going bust and going under, and yet the publishers are getting richer & richer?

Great studios such as Pandemic,Free Radical & Midway close down, people lose their jobs, and lives are destroyed. Yet publishers earn billions of dollars in profit every year,and rising.....

Well the leak came from a trusted source that has previously leaked info on Apple products in the past, which all turned out to be correct.

Sony also stated at a recent shareholder meeting that they were developing a new console.....Thats pretty clear cut and straight from the horses mouth.

The backlog of big releases will have cleared up after this Christmas, and there is not that many highly anticipated titles left after that in the pipeline ,with the excep...

Brink is enjoyable but it is lacking.
I can't exactly put my finger on it...

It had buckets of potential, but they ultimately wasted their opportunity!

I feel as though Bethesda are trying to cover their own tracks now, and just pave the way for Rage & Skyrim!

18 months is still a long time away.

And even prior to the Wii U's reveal there was speculation that Sony were in the latter stages of developing a new console.....Hell they even revealed that they were at a shareholder meeting.

I don't think it is 'fanboy-panic', but rather common sense.

Within the next 4-5 months most of the games on your list will have been released. The source claims that the PS4 won't be released for another 18 months!

By the time it goes on sale, all the great games of this gen will have been released. And the PS3's swan song will probably be The Last Guardian (just like Shadow of Colossus was on the PS2)

And btw there is no chance that either Sony or MS will release their new consoles anywhere near the $500-$600...

I'll be ready for the PS4, once the backlog of games clear up after this Christmas....

E3 2012 reveals of both the PS4 & Xbox 720 please! With the aim for 2013 releases....

RDR was a far superior game to both L.A Noire & Mafia 2.

Whenever I see a big rant off a one bubble troll,
I don't bother reading it, I just disagree & move on!

I wonder how long he spent (wasted) writing this rubbish!

'If we decide to further the franchise from there, it’s likely that we’ll be building a new engine from the ground up again'

Is this an indication that Uncharted's next outing on a home console will be on the PS4.....Possible launch title?

It wouldn't make sense to scrape one of the best graphic engines on consoles, in favor of a new one, this late in the PS3's cycle.

Well considering the recent rumors are that Sony on working on an updated, more powerful & more efficient Cell chip, it is likely that Sony will use Nvidia again, and have backwards compatability for PS3 games.

Sony said that most developers have now grown familiar with the Cell architecture, and they are committed to releasing more user friendly dev kits for their next-gen consoles .

(Starting off first with the Vita, which is being praised for being far...

@jezuz:

Mkv is the format of most 720p & 1080p films on torrent sites.

The PS3 supports MP4, Xvid & MPEG2 which are common formats for digital video cameras and smartphone/handy cam footage, and this was the intended purpose of the media support back when the PS3 was launched in 2007 (Sony hailed it as a device to display your pictures & home movies, thats why the old 60gb PS3 has a SD card & MS Pro duo slots).

Adding mkv supp...

5359d ago 6 agree2 disagreeView comment

Having mkv support encourages film piracy,

It wouldn't be that logical if they did implement mkv support ,especially because Sony profit big time from blu-ray, digital video rentals & from their film studios....

Hey, I'd love to have it, but I don't think it would be wise of Sony.

A new Jak game using the Uncharted graphics engine would be frickin sweet!

Maybe we might see a Daxter 2 game on the Vita......the first Daxter game was an underrated gem on the old PSP.

5360d ago 2 agree1 disagreeView comment

No Max Paynes, Uncharted 2, God of Wars, MGS3, LittleBigPlanet, Half Life 1, Deus Ex, Gran Turismo 3, Quake 2, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, System Shock 2 ect....

I know everyone has the right to an opinion, but there is plenty of classic games not in this list.
