Sony has once again stuck to its guns over the PlayStation 3's "10 year life-span", stating that it sees sales of the console "far outlasting" that of the PS2.
Speaking in a statement given to T3 magazine, the company said: "PS3 won't celebrate its second birthday in the UK until March of this year, and we've said all along that the life-cycle for this generation of hardware will be longer than previous models.
"PS2 was still going strong after eight years, and with the power the Cell processor provides, not to mention the fact that PS3 is inherently future-proof, we see the PS3 sales curve far outlasting that of PS2."
PC gaming giant Crytek recently joined the many developers predicting the launch of the next console in "2011, or 2012."
Going on Sony's statement though, we're not expecting an unveiling any time soon... at all.
