Sony CEO: We’ll Show Our Next Console Only After Microsoft Shows Its Own

"...release until Microsoft has launched its Xbox 360 predecessor." Predecessor means "to come before". How can Microsoft launch a console in the future that comes before the 360? I think you mean "successor" or one that comes after. Not meaning to be a grammar nazi, but it just reminds me of when the Irate Gamer was hammered for the exact same thing.

"Why go first, when your competitors can look at your specifications and come up with something better?" What a dill.

...id just like to say hi and **** you all and xbox is better

I don't think you know what the word "predecessor" means...

Personally, I have adored Playstation all my life and cannot wait for the PS4, but why does the inventor of the PS4 have to act like ****** and not man up and show us his latest creation? I rest my case. :p

Im personally just waiting for the Sega Megadrive 3 to come out.... it gonna be boom. Also lol at all the fanboys on here from both sides! Just buy a PC and be done with it!!

Wow i cant believe all of the ******** and moaning over which console is better. I own a ps3 and not an xbox. Why? cuz that's what i grew up on and wanted. But hey if someone showed up at my house and gave me an xbox i would use. The only thing i really like about the xbox is that you can listen to music while playing games, And the fact that you can install your games onto the hard drive to make them a lil more stable and less laggy. But for me i chose the ps3 over xbox any day. Ive seen more xboxs break down/ freeze then i have ps3's. Also what makes really like the ps3 is how simple the xmb is, its all laid out for you, i dont gotta look through menus trying find one thing like on the xbox. but all in all its the buyers choice and opinion.

In my humble opinion, console manufacturers are shooting themselves in the foot with the image they're creating for themselves. At some point they'll have to concede some profit to maintain a level of quality, if they want to continue to exist long-term. A yearly-release edition of Call of Duty might not have been so obnoxious when you could still buy used games because they weren't requiring that you pay full market price for mountains of uncreative, ideologically sanitized mass-market crap. Honestly, DRM is looking like a more attractive option at this point.

loyal sony customer will come back... it doesnt matter about competition... plus there are some people that just plain hate microsoft... so thus you have it again.... AND! the xbox 720 rival doesnt have blueray... sony invented it, its the greatest thing on the market... eat your frickin heart out! there is no way you can top it! good luck trying!

There are some truly ignorant people here. I have had both for many years as well. The PS1 was my first console ever, and it was wonderful. Then I bought the Xbox after a few years of playing strategy games like Command and Conquer Generals, and of course counter strike. When I obtained my Xbox, halo was the first FPS that I had played that was well thought out. (Mind you, I said "the first "I" had played. And at that point I had played very few, so don't give me crap about it.") Then the 360 followed. I started getting into the Call of Duty franchise, per recommendation of many of my friends. Anyways, I visited a friends house at some point. (ive had the Xbox 360 Elite (the black one) for about a year now) He was playing a PS3 RPG by the name of Demon Souls. After getting a chance to play that game, I was instantly hooked, and quickly bought a PS3 Slim. (I was disappointed that it did not have PS2 platform capabilities that came with the first gen PS3, which was a downgrade. I was disappointed.) I have many games for both consoles. Now, im also a final fantasy fan. So I used the PS3 mainly for the final fantasy franchise, which led me only using the PS3 for RPG's. (not including The elder scrolls and Fallout games.) So I cant really say anything about PSN since i've rarely used it. But the few times that I have played on there, there are very few hackers that actively exploit FPS games during ONLINE matches, which is true on both Xbox and PS platforms. I am slightly biased since i've mainly used XBOX live For Shooters since the beginning of my console years. I know for a fact that neither gaming communities suck. Also, to the person who said that Halo and COD don't take skill, you ARE mistaken. Just the fact that there are even tournaments held for those two games alone proves that there is obviously skill involved. Let alone the fact that there are individual WINNERS. (*gasp*) All first person shooters take a fair amount of planning, strategy, and reaction time to master, even more so when they're online. There was, is, and always will be, CAMPERS on EVERY platform in EVERY online game. And to the PC lover, there (surprisingly enough) was ONE game that had 120-140 player matches. It is called MAG. Its a PS3 game. I didn't discover MAG until several years after it was released, so I decided not to buy it, assuming it was already a dead game. Im not sure how successful it was though. ANYWAYS, both platforms are wonderful, though I use them for two totally different types of games. Sales DOES NOT determine which consoles are better, to an extent. They are both great. Everyone is just biased. All the "fanboys" are just kids who have grown up on a certain console or other, and is simply biased because he doesn't know anything else. And when he sees a chance to announce his "console allegiance", he will, and he will also talk **** about anyone that opposes him as much as possible. I say that, but honestly I would prefer if people wouldn't argue about this unless they've ACTUALLY owned both consoles and truly gotten to KNOW each console before talking trash about them. Always know both sides of an argument thoroughly before arguing one point, otherwise youll be bound to lose the fight. And I also think illiterate people who cant ******* type or spell worth **** should just stay away from computers. It drives me insane when they enter an argument, because every single person, no matter which side, will tell him to **** off. All they do is make themselves look like bumbling fools that aren't capable of being worth anything more than the **** that comes out their ***. Anyways, my rant is over. Oh, by the way, for you "teen fanboy" haters, I myself am a teen, and I don't think ive said anything that labels me as such, let alone being "stupid", "Ignorant", or a "Dumbass". I look forward to any replies to my post, as I am curious about what people have to say.

Listen i have just read every single comment in this blog. This is the dumbest thing i have heard anyone argue over. Jeeze guys go play ur games and be happy with wat you have. I dnt have anything because they are both a waste of time. Idk i guess people will argue over anything

Do editors exist anymore? I stopped reading after the first few lines. "Predecessor" means what comes before; they are waiting for the 360's successor, the 720, not its predecessor, the regular X Box.

you are all cursing and getting pissy about a video game system. youre all under 10 or just acting like it

okay for starters ps3 has a larger libary of exclusives than xbox for example uncharted gt5 killzone resistance 3 infamous and so on and a point to be noted the only good exclusives i've soo far seen on my 360 are forza and halo thus ps3 has better exclusives.okay you've got bill gates but he's known for creating windows and operating systems not hardware where as sony has more than just experience in picking the precise components.ps3 also had a late start and has yet still risen above which shows that the ps3 is more reliable and powerful.dude i have both the xbox slim and the ps3 and in my opinion the ps3 is by far more futuristic than the xbox last night i was playing a little bit of pes on the xbox and its kinda funny seeing ps3 on the freakin advertisment boards so yeaah ps3 does have sponsors.even on the ******* xbox also psn is FREE i don't have to pay to play online so yeah and dude playing on different consoles doesn't mean one of them enhance your skills more than the others soo in the end ps3 is the apex predator and xbox ain't worth buying unless you have a buckload of cash for xbox live,a battery pack for the controller playing ****** games like kinectimals on the kinect and can afford to buy another one just in case the one you have gets bricked

Never seen so many kid fanboys here fighting over kid consoles lol.... PC gaming machines is where it's at. **** this year alone we getting 50 exclusives. Oh I forgot you can't afford one lol. While you xbox and ps fanboys play them 24 player games lol, I'll be busy playing 64 players on games like battle field 3. And 164 players on my old school joint operations. Bunch of teen nerds here that have zero knowledge about true gaming lol. Later console Noobs!
