Playstation 4, arrives 2012?!

It seems that the Playstation 4 may be arriving in 2012!

It seems that the Playstation 3's life may soon be over... With all of the problems that Sony is having, I wouldn't be surprised if this rumor is true. GameSpot says that it was found out through some component makers in Taiwan that said they're beginning work on the next console!

We'll just have to wait and see if it's true or not, but I hope some stuff about it is leaked before the actual release so I can get some specs or some details or something! Also, GameSpot says it's motion control-based, so it may be like a better graphics version of Playstation Move, but combined into the system.

Project Cafe, Nintendo's new console, Leaked Images



It seems that there have been some leaks that have revealed to us the next gen console from Nintendo; it is expected that they will announce the console within about one month or so. This could cause a huge shakeup in the line of consoles, because 360 and PS3 will be outdated compared to the new hardware in the next gen console. The new controller for the next gen console is amazing as well; the console streams an HD (1080p) video to up to four different controllers, showing each player their split of a split screen multiplayer game.

Nintendo, Wii Successor Console, Will Arrive when it is announced



The Wii Successor, Nintendo's next gen console, has been accidentally confirmed, it seems. Shigeru Miyamoto was asked about the new next gen console; he said that the console 'will arrive when it is announced.' He seems to have accidentally confirmed the console, but we already knew about it anyway, so who cares.

The new next gen console will have an awesome controller; the controller will have an HD screen on it and be shaped kind of like a PSP. This will allow for split screen games to give each player a 1080p view of only their split of the screen, instead of everyone just looking at four small screens on one television.

I can't wait until the next console comes out, and I hope all of those rumors about the controller are true! This would make it far better than those terrible motion controlled systems, like the PS3, Wii and 360... They are all embracing too much of these new types of controls, I think. However, the new console will be backwards compatible with all Wii and GameCube games, according to rumor. Also, it will have better hardware than the PS3 or 360.

Sony has sold 50,000,000 PS3 - 8,000,000 Move



Sony has announced that they've sold 50,000,000 Playstation 3s and 8,000,000 Playstation Moves. Microsoft had already reached the same goal with the Xbox 360 months ago and with the Kinect, as well. The Playstation Network has 75,000,000 accounts registered!

Microsofts Xbox 360 had made the goal of 50,000,000 units sold all the way back in January; this is probably because of the humongous interest in the Microsoft Kinect, which has been used for way more than just another controller for the 360. The Kinect is a sensor that doesn't require you to hold any controller at all.

Netflix controlled by Kinect?


It looks like Kinect is being used for everything these days! Sony and Wii might as well give up their motion controls and adapt to the Kinect, because it's winning over everything... Netflix has decided, apparently to allow controls by Kinect. This makes things a bit interesting and awesome at the same time.

Kinect for Netflix controls are only on the Xbox 360 right now, though; however, the Kinect is so awesome that I would bet it could at least spread to a few other Netflix decides. If you don't know what Kinect is: Kinect is a motion control device - need for a controller or remote of any kind, because it senses sound, movements (gestures), pictures and many other things!

This Kinect thing is getting really big, and has caused Microsoft to make a lot of money and their game and 360 sales to go way up!
