It seems my friend working in retail was not the only one to heard by a Sony rep than the PS4 Neo will be launched next year.

 

Well we will know one way or another very shortly, but it seriously doubt this will be the case.

• Would Sony have an event for the PS4 Slim after it's been leaked?
• Would Sony have an event for the Neo even though knowing that its not being released until Feb/March 2017?
• Why would Sony be building them now, to just store them for 5-6 months before release in 2017?

I can understand the reasoning behind Sony delaying the release until early 2017, especially if they can up the specs significantly, but all things considered, going by reports and rumours etc, they have the units available now or soon, so they should get it out pre-Xmas and make some serious inroads into ending the battle with Xbox.

 

It's a Sony ruse mate, purposely misguide the retailers into believing a 2017 launch and then shock and awe the competitors for a 2016 launch tonight .

 

Me too!!!

I dont like idea of "upgrades consoles" but ...

my 2 cents
US$399 -> 449
4,7 Tflops ( 3 cm thicker maybe enough for 100/120 watts class gpu)
8GB GDDR5 -> 226->256 GB/sec
Cpu-> 2,1-> 2,4GHz

 

Floppy drives started to disappear from PCs only when the medium had already become irrelevant.
Unless you think headphones, earphones, powered speakers, A/V receivers, etc. aren't being sold with analog connections, then this situation is completely different.
Nice strawman attempt, though.

It's almost as if you didn't know this is simply a way to save money on the DAC in the phone itself, while forcing isheeps to pay another $50 for an external DAC that will be dangling out of their iphones so they can connect their head/earphones.

Yes, it was both your friend and this anonymous gaf poster who overheard a random store clerk in a random gamestop saying it wouldn't come out this year.

 

Looks like we are in for a treat.

Well, if we're going to be assholes about it....

Consumer audio has gone digital. Analog is dying.

 

i'll be on stage at the event and i'll show my muscles.
40 Tflops big guns.

 

If you think you can "hear" digital then you're either a cyborg from the future or you're just wrong.

 

Omg Shifty WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!!!!!!!

 

The new PS4 will become PS MOAR.
A limited edition with graham cracker brown top and bottom, chocolate middle layer, and marshmallow white between will be PS S'MORE.

 

I don't understand where people get the idea that the Neo or whatever would release this year or even early next year.
Sony have the Playstation VR to launch this autumn and winter, surely they don't want another device competing for the same money, even if it's their own product.
Make people invest in the PS VR now and Neo later in spring 2017.

They will have more information on Neo, possibly even slides of the final hardware to show and presentations of Neo enhanced games. A (26th may 2017) release date and price is likely too, so (the poor) people can start saving again after purchasing the PSVR.

 

It comes from Sony saying that any game released in October (or was it September?) would have a Neo mode. Don't shoot the fans!

 

Why does no one predict a new handheld?

Quad-Core A53
Power VR 7XT 200~300 Gflops
4GB Main RAM, 1GB wideband VRAM
1080p OLED

 

Launching a new handheld the day Apple launches a new iPhone. Not sure.
