The console hasn't been announced, let alone a release data.

OP, you won't see this before Xmas of 2013 at the very earliest

If it was going to be released this Christmas they'd have shown off the console at E3. A lot. Many things are possible but not this.

I wouldn't even put money on a Christmas 2013 in Europe release. March-June 2014 would be my guess over here.

Grumpypants

if it did happen wow thats a huge secret to keep under wrapped

hadepsx

2012 illogical/typo. Christmas 2013 possibility. Christmas 2014 realistic.

I would say christmas 2013 being realistic and i will tell you why, Sony as a corporation needs to turn itself around financially and a quick release of another console will be one of the cash cows it needs to do it.

Not necessarily, they wont start making money back on it (depending on the cost of manufacture) until at least a few million sales, so it could actually prolong the release of a new console.

Its the raft of accessories that will bring in the money, that and i wonder about them charging for online gaming similar to xbox live.
I have a feeling it wont cost them as much to develop the next console, as there is no significant media advnace on the horizon (like bluray this gen)
and i bet they would lean to hardware already in extistance just modifing its use, they will end up using graphics cards that are already in pcs etc.

They'll want to seriously up their game if they want to do that. PSN has nothing on LIVE and if they don't bring it up to scratch it won't go down well.

Summer 2014 would be my guess.

From the what they learn from the PS3 and how they developed the Vita they built it to meet the price, they'll operate at a loss of course but not to that large of one.

Well E.A just announced that they intend to release Battlefield 4 in November 2013 two years after Battlefield 3. So you can put your house on no new PS4 until 1 year after that date at least. http://ie.ign.com/articles/2012/07/17/ea-announces-battlefield-4

There is nothing new on the market at the moment in terms on hardware that Sony can make into a new console thats any better.
