GameStop predicts just one next-gen game console in 2013
Most people have expected that Microsoft and Sony would launch their next game consoles in late 2013. However, that's not what GameStop CEO Paul Raines has been hearing. In a chat on The Verge, he states:
This week, I'm getting a lot of rumors that are very interesting about 2013. We have not been expecting two more consoles in 2013. We're expecting Wii U this holiday, another one next year, and another one in '14. These rumors change every week, but we're hearing more about next year.
It's hard to believe that Microsoft would wait until 2014 to launch the successor to the Xbox 360. The original version of the console was released back in 2005 and is now seven years old, although the company did revamp the case of the Xbox 360 a couple of years ago. It's more realistic to believe that Sony may not be ready to launch the next Playstation console until 2014.
Meanwhile, the next generation console era will officially begin later this fall, when Nintendo is expected to release the Wii U.

Sage-LOST- Xbox's new console is going to blow the others out of the water
Not necessarily.
Have you heard the rumored PS4 specs?
The PS3 has not even reached it full capability graphically.
Though the PS3 reach its limit with the RAM, the PS3 still has a future, but party chat won't be coming to it.
Party Chat is rumored to be coming to PS4 though.
If Sony releases PS4 exactly or before the next Xbox who would know.
I think PS4 will be the "big dog" in the next gen of consoles.
But Microsoft has Xbox Live going for them, I would dream it would be free for multiplayer gaming.
I think Playstation Network will be great for PS4.
All that matters to me is online gaming. Forget Netflix and Hulu Plus.
Sony needs to do more with Crackle and make it a PS4 exclusive. (For those of you who don't know Crackle is own by Sony Pictures Entertainment)
The key for Sony next gen will need to be huge market deals.
Like make deals with Activision about Call of Duty or etc.
The early DLCs don't really matter to me and most gamers, because Call of Duty DLCs aren't what they are made out to be.
But cannot wait to til next gen consoles get launch in the United States.
It's all rumored so you really can't say much on behalf of the PS4.

Maybe it will be like the last gen. Xbox releases their console first, then Sony releases their console a year later. Xbox will still knock them off the charts.
