While we hardly need confirmation from EA labels president Frank Gibeau to convince us that there's a new Xbox and PlayStation on the horizon, it's hard not to get excited when a big name publishing exec references them specifically. During gamescom, Gibeau teased gamers by saying that he has laid eyes upon both Sony and Microsoft's next-gen consoles.
"I've seen both of them," he said in reference to the Xbox 360 and PS3 successors. Gibeau also went on to speak to the future of the industry, saying that "Ten years ago we used to measure our market in terms of 200 million people. Now we are at a billion people playing games and we have a straight line view on 2 billion."
The gaming industry is growing at a rapid rate and I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see what Microsoft and Sony have up their sleeves for the next generation.
Please, don't keep us waiting too much longer.
