The Future Of NextGen Consoles.

MakgSnake · Aug 10th, 2002, 08:58 PM

Ok, I Remember Reading This In A Magazine. They Were Talking About "Next" Gen Consoles....That Is.... Xbox2 .. Another System From GameCube And From Sony.

They Said......That There Are Very Little Chances For Xbox2...But There Is A Hope. Microsoft Is Said To Be Working For This So Called "Super" Machine .... "Homestation"........ I Saw Its Picture (The Demo Picture) And It Didn't Look That "Great". Neways..

GameCube Has Not Said Anything About Its Future ..... That Is Its Next System As GameCube Is Still VERY New........Among Titles And Everything.

As For Sony.......... As We All Know.....Sony's Next Console Is Already In The Works......And Is Suppose To Be 1000 Times Faster Then Ps2. And For Some Reason.....Its Not Going To Be Called "Playstation3"...... This Is What I Heard. They Are Gonna Call It "The Cell"...... Or Only "Cell".......Something Like That! Wierd Isn't It?

You Could Be Right As Well, Cause Thats What I Heard Too... That After PS2. PS3 Would Come Out. But I Remember Very Well That They Said......People Are Talking That It Just Might Called In For "Cell"..... Its A Rumour. So It Could Be True ...... And It Could False Too!

I would like it more if the name is going to be playstation3 instead of cell or the cell

I Agree With U On That!.! ......... But I Wouldn't Mind If Sony Changes The Name......I Mean Something Else Other Then "Cell".......... Something New....... I Mean Something Better Then The Best Which Is "Playstation"........

Beretta55 · Aug 11th, 2002, 04:57 AM

oh my god!! Cell from DBZ has gone console form to take over our mind's!!!! jk jk

but i think PS3 sound's alot better then the Cell.

jjmoohead · Aug 11th, 2002, 09:59 AM

Hey what about "Playstation: Cell"

AsylumEscapee · Aug 11th, 2002, 11:53 AM

Uh, I think Cells the chip.. or something.. CPU-whatever.
I doubt they would take away the PlayStation name. PlayStation has a large number of fans. And plenty of people will buy it simply because it is the next PlayStation.

Haha...Nice. But I Think It Would Just Be Funny, Its Like "Sony" Telling Its Playstation..... "SELL, BABY, GO SELLL!! YEAH!!" LOL!

PSC!..... Hmm Not Bad!

I read some where that MS will call their Xbox2, Homestation
dunno if its true but that would be weird

MakgSnake · Aug 12th, 2002, 11:51 AM

..... Well I Dont Know About That..... "Homestation".. Is Something New..... It'll Contain XBOX In it... With Having A "PC" As Well........... And TIVO.... Thats What I Heard...long Time Back.

As For Xbox2........ I Have No Idea....If Its Coming Out Or Not!.!

KraftSLU · Aug 13th, 2002, 04:53 PM

The 'Homestation' is being developed under the name 'Project Freon' because it is supposedly one of the coolest projects on earth. hahaha.... whatever. Makg was right, its an xbox/pc/tivo/whatever else wrapped all up into one. The next MS system is probably going to come out in 2005 though there hasn't been a whole lot said about it.

Spank-A-Thon · Aug 13th, 2002, 06:35 PM

Incidentally, the X-Box was originally called the 'Homestation' during development...

Just thought I'd throw that one in...

But Spank I Read In "Sept 2002" Issue...That Homestation Is Still In The Works..... I Even Saw The "DEMO" Pics Of The Machine..... Looked Horrible Though!.!

Just Thought I'd Tell Ya!

That's kind of true...

The original X-Box was codenamed Homestation and was intended to be the entertainment hub of the home. At somepoint during development, probably when MS realised that the network infrstructure for such a device was still many years off, MS reduced the scope of the Homestation and gave us what we now know as the X-Box.

The original Homestation premise (i.e. Entertainment hub) is being resurrected for X-Box2/new Homestation...

So with this in mind we are both correct!

As a side point, I cannot see MS releasing something called 'Homestation' as I would imagine SONY would jump all over them for the similarity to Playstation...

ZeroBeat77 · Aug 14th, 2002, 10:16 PM

there's goin to be hella consoles in the future as we no it,there should be 1 console teamed up from every like sony microsft etc., and make games so every 1 won't get mad for games they cant play for thier console.

jjmoohead · Aug 14th, 2002, 10:34 PM

I dont get mad if there is a game on another console I cant play, I just rent the system for a few days, cost like $5 and then play it take it back write a nasty review and go on with my life.

hahaha

nah but seriously, I will rent a game if its that big a deal, or just to try it and see what the hype is all about. Most of the time its just hype.

MakgSnake · Aug 17th, 2002, 12:15 AM

Hey Guys, Ps3 Wont Be Called "The CELL" But It Would Have A CHIP. A New Technology (As Seen On Another "SSSnake's" Thread) Made By Sony, Toshiba, IBM.

Pretty Cool Eh!

Hehe, that sounds pretty cool. As for the name of the PS3, The Cell sounds really poor for a console name.
