PSXE Poll Update: Most Are Perfectly Happy With The PS3
Although it seems both Microsoft and Sony will reveal their new systems at E3 this year, the majority of gamers seem quite satisfied with the PlayStation 3.
In our recent poll, the overwhelming majority said they're quite happy with the current piece of PlayStation hardware, and only a scant few said they were more than ready for the next generation.
This shouldn't be surprising, but we'll be curious to see if interest levels rise after Sony unveils their new console. Gamers love to be excited about new advances in technology, even if they're not always satisfied with the cost of admission (and that question opens up a whole other can of worms). Chances are, we won't hear about the cost of the PS4 at E3 but if they do show off the PS4, maybe more followers will be ready to leap aboard the next-gen bandwagon. It'll be very interesting to see what happens...
This week, we were going to do a survey concerning mobile gaming, so as to refute the obviously biased survey held at MocoSpace. But there's really no good way to phrase the poll question without sounding biased ourselves, so we're sticking with the hot topic of the week: the PS4. When do you think it'll actually arrive on store shelves? Could it be as early as the end of the year? Or are we looking at 2013 some time?

I do have quite a few games to get through on the PS3, and I feel I have yet to enjoy the PS3 fully.
Q!

Look how well all the software companies are doing while the hardware companies are struggling. Samsung and Vizio are pretty much the only ones still making good money on the HDTV market. DELL and HP profits are getting smaller and smaller because they are simply the same but faster and prettier, If you are apple then this does not apply to you.
Sony really needs understand the "app" mentality side of service. Brain numbing graphics and sophisticated narrative to level of Shakespeare in exclusive will not be enough, just look at is going on now with PS3 exclusive, they are awesome, I own must, but most are not system sellers.
They need to make an infrastructure that makes it easy for indies as well as high end game developers to games and apps. These are trends that Sony really needs to embrace and attract all kind of service providers. Youtube is wonderful tool for niche audience that can easily be used for many specified tasks. Image if you are in the market place and next to game that are thinking of buying there is a list video reviews and fellow PSN user video reviews, ingame video clips and more.
The thing that I love about my android is not that is powerful and pretty or esasy to use, rather that I can customize it the way I want it. Please tell me why I can't do that with my PS3? Wouldn't be awesome if PSxextreme was on PS4 as an app, right next to app that automatically downloads all my favorite RSS podcasts feeds so I listen to them while I am making a level in LittleBigPlanet. Its awesome I know.
Since I am already here I need to say this. The dualshock NEEDS to have small touch pad screen some where. Hear me out first. I love my touch screen on my android as I am sure many love their on their phones or Pads, but I fu**ing HATE IT for gaming. Its an awesome tool for some kind of inputs. If PS4 is going to have another web browser they need a touch pad with a keyboard. If they plan to bring more MMOs to PS4 then they need a touch pad so that we can have more inputs, more buttons, more control. If they want to dominate RPGs again they they a touch pad so i can have a customized quick bar on my controller that improves my gaming and not replace it. If you are already mad because you think that I am suggesting that we should replace joysticks, buttons, and triggers let me just tell you that what we have now is awesome but not enough. They somehow need to fit a screen somewhere with controller. I think they could put a screen right under the sticks close to the body or on top where the ps home button is, but i doubt they could do this without increasing the general size of the controller. I really think this a must for PS4 if sony wants to appeal to the masses like Ps2 did. My six year speaks touch pad as my 85 year grandmother can. Is not about replacing but adding, adding value to eyes of people that don't understand CPU speed and Ram size. My two cents... ask and you shall get more.

I am not jumping onto the ps4 bandwagon unless the specs are out and it shows a significant leap in term of the media disc and the HD quality, before then, ps3 is perfect for me.....
