If Sony decided to launch a ps4 soon, it'd be suicide.
The PS3 is finally getting momentum, is finaly getting a shit load of good looking, great playing games.
It can now compete with the best the 360 has to offer, it has started to outpace sales for the 360 and is catching up.
I think it'll be a good 5 years before they launch another console.
It's Microsoft that has to keep it's lead of Sony now.
One of the problems with backwards compatabilty is the locking into a speed race and closing development for better hardware.
Look at the pc, it's changed a lot since it's inception, but hardware wise, it's esentially the same processor, bios, mobo, slots as ever, just had bits bolted on to make it faster.
PCI-E is the same as pci, just a wider faster bus.
The only real upgrade was the VESA Local bus over the ISA. Since then, the buses have gotten wider and faster, so has the CPU. They're still using the same sloppy x86 architecture that it was born with. Look at Apple, they ran the smoother faster, easier Risc, now they've changed to cisc. Now that is a revolution.
Microsoft have stuck with similar architecture as the original xbox, but speeded things up.
Sony decided to drop backwards compatability in favour of new more dynamic hardware, it cost them no doubt, but over all it's a better system.
I think what I'm trying to say, is that it's all well and good making a console backards compatable, but not at the cost of improving the design and devolpment of better hardware.
If the PS3 has a decent software compatabilty engine, then why build it into hardware in the first place?

Dunno about you guys, but for me PS3 is the ugliest motherfucker of all consoles, even fucking xbox looks better. Dunno what went wrong when they approved the aesthetics. Look at Sony walkmans and mobile phones then look at PS3....horror. PS4 following the same ugly design?
BEEPLEFIELD 3 - it is all about locks, unlocks and small cocks!
