Idk to me seems like a bad move. PS4 has barely
Been out and there's already 3 versions to buy

If it's true I'm sure it'll still be selling out quickly. I feel like people are going to get tired of this shit soon

PS1: 1994
PS2: 2000 (six years)
PS3: 2006 (six years)
PS4: 2013 (seven years)
PS5: 2018 (five years)

It'd be a little early but nothing unbelievable. Especially since Nintendo's new system came out early.

Seems highly unlikely. I doubt we'll see it before 2020. The PS4 is tracking higher than the PS2 right now. To instantly stunt the growth of the console now would be a ridiculously stupid move. Plus we know there's multiple PS4 games that likely won't even be out by Holiday 2018/2019.

Sony also estimated selling 18 million units this year. I don't think that would be feasible if they scare people away by saying that they would replace the console soon after.

I remember when the PS3 was backwards compatible with all PS2 games, except this giant list of gsmes that it wasn't backwards compatible, oh and also Tales of the Abyss.

I also remember when the PS2 was backwards compatible with all PS1 games except Metal Gear Solid. Actually, it was mostly compatible with MGS anyway, except it would freeze in the ending or something.

Nintendo pretty much had to introduce the switch early. The wii u was a failure.

Yeah I know. What I mean is the other two might be feeling the pressure to also launch early to compete.

The PS1/PS2/PS3 all had unique hardware configurations which made backwards compatibility extremely hard unless you flat out put a PS1/PS2/PS3 CPU in the machine. Clearly that was expensive.

With the PS4 (and Microsoft with the Xbox One) they went with a more standardized hardware and should be easily made backwards compatible moving forward provided Sony doesn't go back to unique hardware again.

i can see people getting mad over this.

don't see why they need to release a new console when they just did that with the pro, ps4 is selling like crazy, and all that "greatness awaits" bullshit is finally coming around lol.

Wouldn't be so bad, if it weren't for the Pro. Still just a rumour. Will wait until E3 before I get actually irritated.

If it's gonna happen they won't say shit at this E3. That would kill the sales of the PS4. If it's true the rumors will get louder later this year.

fine with me. That'll just make ps4 games cost less and I already have a huge backlog that I want to play.

I came late to last gen as well and it was glorious because ps3 had tons of great games that I could get for $15 bucks.

I'm not trying to make any assumptions about how realistic the idea is. Just saying take once daily by mouth, with grain of salt.

Yes, like the PS1. The even-numbered consoles are the peak years.

Lol worst generation of consoles ever.

I was just about done with gaming after last gen. Feel sad for kids who grew up on these systems this is why they all moved on to mobile games or flat out lost interest.
