Playstation 4 set for 2012?

Sony is planning to start manufacturing the PlayStation 4 at the end of this year, for a planned release in 2012.

That's according to a new Digi Times Report, which even more surprisingly claims Sony's to have Taiwan-based partners begin production of PS4 complete with body movement-based controls, similar to Microsoft's Kinect.

Taiwan-based component manufacturers Foxconn and Pegatron Technology, assemblers of PS3, will undertake assembly of PS4, according to the site's sources.

The planned shipment volume of PS4 in 2012 is at least 20 million units, they indicated.

The report follows another from reliable US news site IndustryGamers, which claimed last month that it's heard from "industry sources at a top developer" that the PlayStation 4 will become a real thing in the next 18 months.

Prior to that, a similar story pointed to an Xbox 720 reveal next year, with developer Crytek cited as the source of the rumour.

The PS4 2012 claim, which is looking more and more likely as the rumour reports pile up, would be quite a surprise considering only a few weeks ago Sony reaffirmed its 10-year cycle strategy for the PlayStation 3.

Newly-promoted CEO of PlayStation worldwide, Andrew House told CVG at E3 he "still characterised this as the early period" for PS3, and noted that Sony had "only really just begun to explore what the potential is for 3D".

But it's the first we've heard of Sony jumping on the motion-sensing camera bandwagon. Are Sony and Microsoft about to go head-to-head in the 'no controller' stakes? Will the PlayStation firm do a better job? What does it mean for Move?

It looks like we're in for an exciting 12 months. We'll be the first to remind you of the old phrase, 'There's no smoke without fire.'


Quite a surprise to me. You would think that it would be released at this years E3. I seriously hope that they don't get rid of controllers full stop. That would probably force me to buy a WiiU if the 720 has no controllers either.

I do not see a new PS for a while. See the thing is right now we are on the edge of something grand. Soon we will have a new definition as well as better speeds for Solid state and cheaper drives. I think right now is not the time to make a new system. Only thing you can upgrade is the chips and cards.

Just think about how cool it will be to have games on USB 3.0 cards. They can get up to 256 GB if not larger. No moving parts and fast read/write times. Game could come installed on the drive and you could have a Hub. Plug say 5 games into the hub and play the one you want without switching sticks.

Bringing out a new console now I do not think is smart. Not with the changes that are just over the hill.

I do feel like a new console soon, not sure if I will go with sony or microsoft this time or maybe I'll get both. All I know is whichever one is released first will be the one I buy anyway.

PS3 is meant to not even be halfway through its life time yet, which means we wont be seeing a PS4 until 2013-2014??

More like 14-15 green, sony and microsoft both came out at the same press conference last year saying their consoles were still under half their life span, so my friends dont expect a new console from them soon due to the fact you don't need a new one atm

Well we don't need one but some will want a new console. With a new console you would have heaps of games looking as good as BF3 on PC and Crysis 2.

I think there is something to remember hear. The PS3 can be halfway into its life and still have have a neww system come out. The old systems normally stick around for a couple of years even when the new one is out. Hell the PS2 is still on sale in some places.

They want to make sure when they come out with a new one it will trump everything that is already out there which is what it did when it originally came out

Maybe it is set to be revealed next year and then the release will be sometime in 2013. I just don't want too wait another 3-4 years for a new console. Imagine where PC gaming will be by then.
