|  | Quote: | Despite Sony's insistent claims that they need to focus on the PS3 and Vita right now, there's more evidence that a new home console is in the works.
The latest comes from former AMD employees as reported by Forbes. It seems AMD might be involved in the creation of Sony's new machine, which is interesting because the PS3 utilizes Nvidia graphical technology. Microsoft's Xbox 360 uses AMD.
AMD refused to officially comment on the rumor, as did Sony Chief Transformation Officer George Bailey; very likely, we can guess at the email Forbes received: "We do not comment on rumor and speculation." Par for the course from Sony. Still, the source did note AMD Chief Financial Officer Thomas Seifert's claim that gaming would be "one of several trends" that will drive revenue growth for his company in 2012. |

| That would be great, hopefully they can implement something like Eyefinity into the
system so the ps4 can play on multiple screens, as well as actually play all
games in 1080p. |

Probably not. Sony wont make a huge leap this time. Probably just as powerful as the new Xbox. I dont think they will add a $120+ GPU in the new PS3, then you will have a 699 US DOLLAH!!! |

| If this is true AMD is going to be rolling in the cash & plus there is the rumor that 360 will also be using a AMD based GPU |

| So AMD now has made a monopoly off of console GPUs.

| Well I do like my games toasted. However the Xbox has been doing that for a while now.
