 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
http://wii.ign.com/articles/121/1219035p1.htmlLooks like Ubisoft is teaming up with Nintendo...finally the Big N has some third party commitment outside of the occasional Capcom title. I'm still torn on rather or not I should get a WiiU this fall or just jump on board PS3.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
I'd wait for the "720".

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
Nah, the XBOX just isn't my thing. I'd rather have a Sony system.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
I doubt it'll happen, but I hope the PS4 and Xbox 720 release at the same time.
For me in the late generation, the PS3 is trending up on my opinion chart and the 360 is trending down. I see the PS3 as having better exclusives and feeling like a more adult machine. The 360 is feeling more kiddie-ish (thanks to Kinect) and feels like it's bleeding exclusive games.
I still place the 360 above the PS3 largely for the user interface, controller, and achievements, but it's FAR closer between the two then at the beginning of the generation.
So, I think a next gen same time launch could make my decision on which one to buy first a little more interesting.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
After Sony, now MS too has confirmed there will be no new console announcement at this year's E3 or anytime soon. Another boring E3. Let's hope they announce it and release it next year.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
Quote: There have been plenty of leaks, whispers and rumors about the next Xbox for a few months now, but there hasn't been a lot of talk about Sony's plans for the next generation. Kotaku, though, claims to have uncovered some inside information about the system that, on the surface, makes it sound like the next generation console race is going to be a tight one -- and begin next year. Citing a single anonymous source, Kotaku says it believes the code name for the next PlayStation is "Orbis." And while the next console from Sony is widely expected to be called PlayStation 4 when it hits shelves, the site infers that Orbis might be the system's final name. Whatever it's called, Kotaku says we can expect to see it released in the holiday period of 2013 -- the same timeframe most expect the next Xbox to arrive. If so, that would eliminate the one year head start Microsoft enjoyed with the Xbox 360, a year that gave it a lead over Sony that thus far has proven insurmountable. [Related: New Sony CEO to keep charge of troubled TV operations] Much like the rumored next Xbox system (codenamed Durango), the new Sony system will lock games to a PSN account, which could impact the used game market. "If you then decide to trade that disc in, the pre-owned customer picking it up will be limited in what they can do," the site said. "While our sources were unclear on how exactly the pre-owned customer side of things would work, it's believed used games will be limited to a trial mode or some other form of content restriction, with consumers having to pay a fee to unlock/register the full game." If true, that's likely to upset a notable segment of the gaming population, not to mention have a serious impact on retailers like GameStop who make a tidy profit on the used game market. And Sony could ruffle even more feathers if the system ditches backward compatibility with the PlayStation 3, as Kotaku says it will. In terms of hard specs, Kotaku says the system will use either AMD's x64 CPU or perhaps AMD's Southern Islands GPU, the company's high-end chip. Graphics-wise, Orbis is said to be capable of resolutions up to 4096x2160, commonly called '4K' in TV manufacturer parlance (and one of the technological boosts shown off at this year's CES). It's also said to be able to play 3D games in full 1080p, a leap over the PS3's max 3D resolution of 720. It's critical to note that these are unconfirmed reports based on a single source, so it's wise to be skeptical. Developers Yahoo! Games has spoken with are unable to confirm anything in Kotaku's report, and note they haven't been contacted yet by Sony to discuss the new system (though they say they have spoken with Microsoft). Don't expect Sony to officially start talking about the PS4 or Orbis anytime soon, either. In January Sony's Kaz Hirai stated clearly that the company would not announce any new home systems at E3 http://games.yahoo.com/blogs/plugged-in ... 15017.htmlI'm a PlayStation guy but I hope this does not end up being true

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
Pretty satisfied with my PS3 and 360 so I don't really need to upgrade right now to PS4/Xbox 720. I'm a longtime Nintendo fan so I'm gonna get the Wii U (especially since another Smash game will be on it) but... god, I hope that rumor about Ninty changing the name of the Wii U is true

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
All 3 next gen systems sound awful so far. The major players are colluding to kill Gamestop and it doesn't seem right.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
According to a leak from a Japanese retailer, the Wii U will launch in North America on November 18th, followed by Japan a week later.
And Europe would probably get it the first week of December.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
So with Gears of War 4 and Halo 4 next year......Its very unlikely to see a Xbox 3 in 2013.

 Re: Next Gen may start this Fall!!
Halo 4 is this year. And the new Gears seems more akin to an Halo ODST rather than a proper Halo. It's also not done by Epic. And it's coming out early next year.

2013 and still only rumours. A console cycle should not be longer than 6 years.
