As typical for playstation, I predict it will not be the best system for graphics and yet more ppl will buy it.....
 They will probably just have more games that the others systems, altho with growing popularity maybe the companies will start making games for other companies systems since they are all disc based now...I still predict it will be the weakest of any of the systems that come out around that time, just as the PS2 is now... |

Oh, and here's a concept for the PS3:  Kinda looks like they took a toaster and gutted it. Here's the new Xbox prefab:  I hear it weighs 150lbs and can be used as a bomb-shelter for up to three people. |

Take note that pretty much every concept photo of the PS3 (or any other new system) that you will see will be fake until about a few months before they actually launch the console, hence the term 'concept'. Although several of them may actually be the official concept from Sony themselves at the time, the actual console rarely ever looks anywhere near most depicted images.
Seeing how the speculated launch date is 2006, expect to see alot more of these. Here's some more:

wow....i noticed that many people act like PS2 is the worst thing there is....but face the facts PS2 has the best games out of all 3 major systems.
PS2: ZOE, ZOE2, Dynasty Warriors 4, Final Fantasy series, Xenosaga, etc X-box: Halo and Ninja Gaiden seems to be the only ones..... Gamecube: mostly kitty games i wouldnt take a 2nd look at but....pikmen, Naruto 2 |

ZOE - Konami
Dynasty Warriors - Koei Final Fantasy series - Squaresoft Xenosaga - Namco Now...i'm not saying Sony is a bad company...but if Sony didn't have all the 3rd party companies it does now it wouldn't be as popular... As for Gamecube...Nintendo itself has made many good games...and their main ones was done by themselves and not 3rd party companies....(the metroid series, mario series, and zelda series) Edit: thanks Dark Zero for pointing out my mistake

And as long as the systems are downwards compatible I think they can keep the similar name. |

PS2 is popular because its favored by 3rd party companies, that's why Nintendo's GameCube isn't doing that well and why most of their "good" games, or games in general are theirs. That's why Sega's Dreamcast (may it RIP that wonderful system) began to die, because 3rd party companies pulled away from a "low selling" system and decided to focus their attention on the PS2. A good example was when Sierra pulled the plug on Half-Life for the Dreamcast just days before its release (the strat guides came out before the game.
) Its not about power or superiority, its about popularity and versatility, and selling potential, PS2's ability to play old PSX was a major sell for a lot of buyers, plus they already held the market for consoles with their original PSX. And PS2 has several benchmark games that made it even more worth buying it. Like most Squaresoft whores (I know its Square Enix now.) they merely bought it because of that companies endorsement. As long as major companies endorse this system, and the reserve-playing capabilities are still there, it will continue to dominate.Great PS2 games: Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, Metal Gear Solid: Substance, Jak I & II, Final Fantasy XI, Disgaea, Tekken 4, Virtua Fighter 4 + Evo, Medal of Honor, SNK King of Fighters bundle packs, Guilty Gear X & X2, Grand Terismo 3, Silent Hill 3, Tony Hawk series. XBOX is now getting some console-exclusive games, such as Fable, Ninja Gaiden, before then mostly all their games were ports, so meaning if you could get it for the PS2/GameCube which you already own why buy an XBOX? Before then all they had was Shenmue II, & Halo pretty much, plus with their more in-tune XBOX Live subscription (I believe its play all the games for the XBOX for one flat-rate.) is giving companies more of an essentive to go towards the XBOX. Plus its also bullet-proof. http://www.gamespot.com/all/news/news_6084935.html |
