PS4 and Next-Generation Xbox to be announced in March?

4.4
Rumors have been published in the February edition of Game Informer that suggest that both Microsoft and Sony will be delivering "special Apple-style press conferences" right before E3.

Sources have now confirmed that both the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox 720 game platforms will be revealed before E3, although no specific dates have been given at this time.

"We hear that both Sony and Microsoft are targeting special Apple-style press conferences to unveil their platforms near the Game Developers Conference in late March," reads the Game Informer report.

"E3 in June may be the industry's biggest event, but both companies want to give their systems their own limelight," the piece adds.

Analyst Colin Sebastian of Baird Equity Research has suggested that the PS4 and the Xbox 720 will be priced in the $350-$400 range.

What about the people who have had there console since 2005!

I've had my console for about 3 and a half years and I've been bored of it
this long time, you will seriously get sick of it if you're a hardcore gamer especially.

Heil I CAN wait...im satisfied with my slim, no trouble at all...why would I waste another 200+ for something that will do the same job? Biggest difference in the new console? Its case. 0.0


Satisfied with 720p resoultion @30fps with pretty bad graphics? The next gen console should be able to do 1080p @ 60fps with pretty decent graphics and also a whole new set of features.


The current consoles are 60 fps.

No they are not only Call of duty runs at 60fps and that is not even constant for example when you run into multiple large plums of smoke then the FPS may dip you also will have new features such as SSAO, AA, Tesselation ETC

Most games run at 30fps

The current consoles are 60 fps.


The current consoles are actually about 30 fps.

NicknKickn You've got to be kidding me, I just got rid of my arcade xbox last year and upgraded to a slim. Now they are talking about releasing the next-gen console. Man this stuff is a moneypit.

Your fault. I don't see the point of "upgrading" to a slim.
