For me...what i hate next gen is all my adventure game are gone. Monkey island, sam & max etc. Look at lucasart...what type of game he is releasing now.

The first picture microsoft dude already confirm it's a fake.
Second picture is somebody on the forum design and he/she hope the next gen would look like that.

it's still big for the first pic....what microsoft wants now is portibility, and small form factor.

but the 2nd pic looks cool
futuristic

Well, I don't think console-makers should overemphasize design. What matters is whats on the inside, not the outside.

I thought alot don't like xbox bulky look?

no not the inside that counts,its the game if xbox have FFX then people would chose xbox not ps2 ,so u can have all those fancy feature but with bad games.its not gonna last long

next gen ps3 i hope would be as small as a PS TWO (the new version) and with the introduction of cell processors for ps3, itll sure leave xbox in the dust. ^^

+ i hope tht ps3 would have a chromed look and the word ps3 illuminates whnever the console is in use, tht'll be cool. hehe..

it would be better if it glow in the dark

But I think that the X-Box is bulky because it needs to fit in all its hardwares and internal components and stuff. Instead of just the design, they should also focus on what materials are they using. That way, maybe it can reduce cost and weight.

here's another PS3 mockup..

it's so frickin bulky for a PS3

errrr... UMD slot?? U can play ur PSP games on Ps3?? if that is real, awesomeness!!!!! Wheres the Blu-Ray slot????????? ANd controller port oso seems to be missing.

i read in the link u posted, confirm fake. Its actually a photoshopped Digital Camera Expert sial!

If you have ps3...i don't think you will still remember what is psp.

Well, if it doesn't transform into a giant robot in which whiny 12~14 year olds can ride on, then its not a PS3.

Seriously, is it just me or the next-gen features are incredibly predictable? Example: will feature better online play, a hell lot more stuff to download, ability to render sharply complex and power-hungry graphics, etc. Console-makers should try to come up with something that the consumers wont expect if they want to gain momentum in the upcoming next-gen console wars. What should they come up with? hmm... I give up.

john,
why would you think that those ps3 owners will not remember what's a PSP?

Erm let say...tekken 6, metal gear solid 4, final fantasy 20....you will be sitting there playing that instead of psp. PSP are for mobile use anyway. Currently the graphic is abt the same as ps2, so sometimes eventhough you are not travelling you will still play it at home.

yes, when those are out and you'll be playing it at home. but you did say about travelling. that's where PSP comes in, just like what GBA is hanging around kids' neck walking in shopping malls playing it.

If someone is on the go, PSP will come into play. Ppl will still remember and will use PSP.

nolar, PS3 keluar, pple buang PSP tunggu PSP2

I agreed with hangmen...it is all getting pretty stale...frankly, i don't need next gen console rite now....the current gen console are just fine especially the XBOX. And i'm not excited at all by MS GDC presentation which shows a lot of useless online features, more ways to squeeze money from gamers, and even....horrors!! advertisment in your games!!!

If the next gen turns out like this, I'll just keep playing the current consoles and dig up all the old ROMS and emulators....there's a whole lot of games in there!
