Sony First-Party Studios Starting PS4 Projects

Posted on Thursday, October 20 @ 09:12:17 Eastern by


According to a "trusted source connected to the matter", some of Sony's internal development studios are in the preliminary stages of building projects intended for the PlayStation 4. The source was unable to confirm to Develop which of Sony's sixteen internal studios were working on such projects.

If the projects are only in the preliminary stages, odds are that the PS4 is still a few years off, leaving plenty of time for the PlayStation 3 to continue to grow, and for Sony to spend at least a couple years putting a stronger focus into the PlayStation Vita.

Industry analysts, various publishers, even Sony, dismiss the idea of a PS4 any time before 2014. The PlayStation 3 is still considered a powerful machine, with ample room left for developers to squeeze out more and more performance.

One thing is for certain: The PS4 won't stand a chance next to the GameRevolution WiiPlayBox.

    I think the keyword there is project. Their not assembling consoles yet, their coming up with the neat gizmos to stick inside of one.

    No, no, no. They are working on the games that will be the launch titles for the PS4.

    Yeah, but that would mean they would have to have the hardware done by now, correct? If so, I'm not going to buy a PS4 if they still haven't maxed out tech in the PS3 yet.

    What they likely have is a PC dev kit based on what they want the final PS4 specs to be. They're probably toying with tech demos and testing out new engines. That's about it for now.

    But they gotta start somewhere. Either way, I'm excited for some more power.

    I'm stoked to hear that Sony and Microsoft are both working on the next gen consoles, but I'll wait at least a couple years after either one comes out before picking one up. Firstly, because they will be really friggin' expensive, and second, because there are a sh*t ton of games on both PS3 and the 360 that I still havent played, and will be awesome for a long time. Besides which, there are never enough interesting titles available at a consoles launch to make them worth it anyway.

    I think Sony is finally ready to win the console war. They showed that they can have a powerful console with the PS3, now they just have to work on the social aspects, connectivity, and marketing.

    I'm pretty sure the reason why a lot of the first party titles are being released this year is because they need to be out of the way. GG and Naughty Dog are huge when it comes to developing Tech for Sony.

    I'm not really sure what the hell Zipper does.

    Zipper a fastener for clothes, bags, or garments consisting of two rows of interlocking metal or plastic teeth with an attached sliding tab pulled to open or close the fastener. Hope this helps.
