When will developers be able to fully utilize the PlayStation 3’s power?
What is the life expendency of the PS3?
Will game developers make great game for the PS3 before the PS4 comes out?
What features would the PS4 have? Will it be forth getting if you have already a PS3?
According to Sony, the PS3 has a life expectancy of 10 years, but that’s a little over estimation. The PS3 will probably be around 6 to 7 years, much like the PS2.
Of course developers are going to make great games for the PS3 before the PS4 comes out. Take a look at Heavenly Sword. It’s a game that’s taking advantage of the cell processor. When the enemies are far away, they get treated as one group, and as they come close, they start to separate and form separate groups that act individually. Finally, when they confront Nariko, each enemy acts individually with its own strategy.
The PS4 will probably have a new storage format, much like how the PSX uses CD, PS2 DVD, and PS3 Blu-ray.
Is it worth getting? Sure, but if you don’t want to shell out the money, wait a little longer, near the end of this year or so
