Sony focusing on Playstation 3, no PS4 release in 2012
Well those of you who thought Sony were going to release their Playstation 4 in 2012 have just been quashed, because Sony’s CEO has said that his only concern currently is getting the most out of the Playstation 3, after revealing there are still 50 million PS2′s still active on PAL territory and citing Sony ‘still have a long way to go’ with the Playstation 3. In an open discussion, CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Jim Ryan said during GamesCom this week that:
“All I’m focussed on right now is making the most of PS3. We’ve over 50 million PS2′s installed across our PAL territory, and as you’ve heard yesterday we’re up to 22 [million] on PS3, so there is a long way to go. That’s all we need to focus on for now.”
This latest news ties in with our coverage yesterday that Sony are slashing European, US and Japan prices for PS3 hardware in an aim to boost sales internationally. The image above is a concept design which we covered a short while back of what the PS4 will hopefully look like (it does look pretty good, doesn’t it?).
