Will the next Playstation be the PlayStation Orbis?

The rumor mill is buzzing about the next PlayStation due out in 2013.  No official comment from Sony yet, but word has leaked that the successor to the PlayStation 3 may be in the works, with a target release date of the holiday period -- 2013. The source of the rumor is Kotaku.

Anonymous sources who have inside information on the next PlayStation are saying that PlayStation 4 will be called Orbis. No more number naming conventions for Sony -- for now. However, we all know that things can change.

Among the specs for Orbis is a resolution of  4096 x 2160 which far exceeds the requirements of most HDTV sets.

The system will also enable 3D video game playing, as long as you have a compatible TV.

Art for the PlayStation.  The rumored name for the new PlayStation is Orbis. 

The downside and if this rumor proves to be true, is you may not be able to play video games between your PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 or Orbis.

Another rumored change is if you buy a used Orbis video game, you will not be able to play the game online.  Only the original owner will have an account for that particular game.

These are all rumors for now, and as rumors go, should be taken with a grain of salt. The name Orbis is suspect also since it did not come directly from Sony.

However, if you feel strongly about not being able to buy and play used video games as you do currently, or if do not like not being able to play games between consoles, now may be the time to let your voice be heard.
