There’s no denying that we are on the cusp of the next generation of gaming, but that fact apparently isn’t pressuring Sony into making any major hardware announcements in the near future. According to a statement from the head of PlayStation France, Philippe Cardone, Sony will likely be the last out of the gate yet again with its next console.
Speaking to LePoint.fr, Cardone expressed his confidence in the legs of the PS3, pointing out that of the three major companies, Sony is under the least amount of pressure to release something new.
It’s true that there are a lot of rumours, but I couldn’t tell you anything.
Wii is pressed for time because it’s in decline. In our case, we have a lot less pressure. We were the last to release PS3, and we will probably be the last to announce something.
While rumors have been circulating the web for some time regarding new hardware, Sony has time and time again refuted claims that a PS4 will be announced soon.
