Sony has finally summed up the courage to reveal its plans for a new PlayStation console, during a press event held today in New York City. The PlayStation 4 is coming.
Andrew House, president of Sony Computer Entertainment, confirmed this and introduced Mark Cerny as the lead system architect.
The manufacturer proceeded to explain how this new consoles is "a platform for game creators by game creators," in addition to which he talked about the new DualShock 4 and it's new features.
Also, Sony did reveal that the PlayStation 4 will give users a chance to play games as those very games are being downloaded. Evidently, the console contains a secondary custom chip for background downloading and processing.
The best part of all is that the console is set to stream PS1, PS2 and PS3 games, so yeah, backward compatibility is very much in the picture.
Be on the lookout for more news, soon.

What an asshat idea. Get people to re-buy games they already own if they want to play them on PS4.
The good news (for me) is that the used PS3 console market won't dry up any time soon, if the PS4 isn't truly PS3 compatible. Because I intend on selling my used PS3 at some point.
Btw "a platform for game creators by game creators" sounds more like something Gabe Newell is allowed to say. Or they'll finally make an open system and keep it that way (yeah, right, like they did with PSP?)?
