Sony: We won't show PS4 until it can demonstrate 'a significant leap'
In a rare interview with industry publication MCV, Andrew House appeared to challenge the emerging view that the next batch of game consoles will not provide a considerable leap in technology.
Asked why Sony did not showcase the next PlayStation at E3 this year, he said: "The right time to talk about new advances in hardware is when you can demonstrate a significant leap on the current experience, and something that is going to be attractive."
"Beyond that we have nothing to say at this point," he added.
Analysts and executives at rival companies have already claimed that next-generation graphics will not leap as far forward as the current generation did from the previous.
Recently, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata questioned whether consumers will ""be able to realise the difference" between current and next generation technologies
It is widely believed that Sony will reveal PlayStation 4 at E3 next year, if not sooner.

This is smart on Sony's part. Nobody will be tempted to buy a new $700 console unless they see significant change in the UI.

galaxyblast Well, this just proves that PS4 is behind in technology compared to Xbox.
(Don't flame me I won't respond).
I agree with you on that, it seems PS3 released everything they had into the PS3 as soon as they could but xbox has played it out nicely.

I do not own a PS3 but I have heard that playstation has been putting out updates just to keep up with xbox live's updates and that there is nothing that has really been added or improved. This will be a good way for them to clean up their name.

I just hope that rumor about it not being able to play used games isn't true. If it is, there goes my chances of ever picking this one up.
