I'd expect the next batch of consoles will be out in around 2 years. Although what MS are doing with Natal, and Sony are up to something fairly similar, will probably keep these consoles going for a bit longer. After all, the current climate probably isn't the best to land with another new £300+ piece of hardware!!

They'll still be making games for it in 6-7 years mate. We just finished what was probably our last PS2 game this year, most companies are still releasing their major brands on PS2. So it won't be a prob.

I dont think a ps4 will be out for many years, sony are still not making a profit from this one yet and the games are still in their early stage.

Sonko - not on the hardware. But they are still creaming it in from the $6 per disc royalty they take from publishers :D Always been the way they make their money back.

As I said above, things like Natal will stretch how long the current generation remains. But traditionally, a new hardware launch comes every 5-6 years.

Not so sure, the ps3 has 8 processors and most games dont even use half of them. Still much more to come from the ps3 imo

There's some serious pimping of this stuff going on to developers right now. MS are putting a lot of $ and weight behind this. I've seen some early stuff, and if it lives up to the hype it is going to be huge!
