I hope this is the last "real" year for this current batch of consoles. I'm ready to move on.

Very true. I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand, Yeah, I'm totally ready for some fresh hardware. I have been officially desensitized to the "wow factor" this generation once filled me with. My eyes are set on the future.
On the other hand, It's sort of comforting to not see my current-gen console still getting plenty of support, taking center stage, and hosting ton's of games that are still great. I've put a lot of money, love, and time into this puppy, and when the playstation 4 hits ( I'm going to give Sony benefit of the doubt right now and assume it gives us backwards compatibility - Risky, I know ), my ps3 will pretty much be obsolete. Not to mention, as long as developers have creative idea's there is still a ton of potential left for fantastic games with our aging hardware. We're all aware of that though.
