Don't turn this into a PS3 vs 360 thread. I thought the fanboy crap had gone from this forum.

Dont be silly! The next few years are going to SUCK, as people revert back to their adolescent ways.

I'll just stand above them all and bask in the glory of having a high paid job and owning everything, while not caring about peon problems. :cool:

Discussion comparing the consoles is fine, its when you have dumb **** like rollyeyes coming out it just ruins any kind of point your trying to make and you look a nob.

If Sony manage to give this a good party system to communicate with friends, keep up the amazing PS+ their isn't much reason to make the next xbox my 'main' console(especially if xbox live remains in its crappy state), considering it looks like kinect is going to be rammed down our throats.

I believe it has now outshipped it, not outsold. To be honest I'm surprised being a year late, more expensive and the online party system is garbage.

I'd imagine it will overtake it eventually.

Twinge of excitement!

Roll on 20th! I really do hope they have something special... and more comfortable controllers.

antijoke · 1 Feb 2013 at 13:46

I'm excited for the 20th too.

Also I have a friend who knows someone who works at Sony, and he has more information to tell as my mate said he cannot talk at work but he'll call him tonight.....

ic1male · 1 Feb 2013 at 14:06

Make you sure tell us all!

antijoke · 1 Feb 2013 at 14:51

Depends how much of a let down it is.

d_brennen · 1 Feb 2013 at 14:53

I would not be one bit surprised if the PS4 and Xbox whatever are remarkably similar in specifications...

Summer release perhaps? Gonna be interesting to see!

Nov 2013

maybe summer 2014 for the UK

I'm still praying for hybrid crossfire. I mean with all the talk of AMD as a basis, with regards to the CPU, I could see an APU solution + GPU being in 1 of the consoles. Its not exactly a stretch considering what is readily available now.

d_brennen · 1 Feb 2013 at 15:08

Hybrid Crossfire in the living room? Why? It's 99% dire, 1% great

Swagger187 · 1 Feb 2013 at 15:19

Me thinks this is why GTAV has been pushed back. Going to release on new console/s.

Thats for a PC though. I imagine allowing Hybrid crossfire on a console, with a static system to develop for could be pretty good.

What like the rumored 7970M running in conjunction with an APU GPU like 7660D, now that would be interesting to say the least.

Please dont let us down Sony!

Surely that can only be a good thing. A) about time for a new console B) a GTA that wont run like crap on 10yr old hardware

Most definitely. would have been a crying shame to release it on current hardware. Tho still would have brought it haha.

R* have said that it will launch in September on PS3 & 360.

I'd find it highly doubtful (but would love to be proved wrong) that this will be a launch title for PS4/720.

Craterloads · 1 Feb 2013 at 15:39

On a side note, what do you think will happen with some of the massive exclusives set to launch in the near distant future, possibly pushed back for the PS4?
