CES starts tomorrow. Chances of Next Gen showing?

With CES kicking off tomorrow, and both Sony and MS showing off the latest tech, what are the chances of seeing some info on PS4 / Xbox 720?

There have been games like Star Wars 1313, Watch Dogs and tech demos like Agni Philosophy, UE4 and Cryengine 3 - all next gen products, shown over the past 6 months. Some posters have been posting info on next gen leaking shortly after Christmas. We have loads of spec rumours.

What is the Gaf consensus?
 
The only 'Next-gen' I'm expecting is the next generation of Nvidia Tegra.

It'll probably be what will be in my future tablet, so I want to know more.
 
Microsoft won't be at CES this year. CES in general is a conference on the wane. I wouldn't expect Sony to steal any thunder from their other consumer electronics divisions with Playstation-related material-look for TVs, phones, computers, and other devices, but nothing from the gaming unit.
 
Privately at CES. Public showings sometime between now and E3 at a company held event. Full reveals/unveilings at E3. That's my prediction.

Sony is streaming it's conference I the Playstation blog this year with a Q&A with Kaz afterwards. That could be telling.

It depends if they want to steal MS thunder. I guess MS due to their countdown site are more likely to hold out to E3.

Sony publicly showing something next gen related at this point is even less likely than Microsoft. It's rumored MS is showing off Durango behind closed doors at CES so we may get some rumors but that'll be it in terms of next gen news.
 
Btw: IF something happens then it will take place today as the pre show starts this evening.
It's between 4-7 p.m. PST, so it starts in about 10 minutes. It seems though no site is live streaming it. I haven't found one anyway.

Well. It's nearly 1am here in Germany. Time for sleep. I'll see that nothing has happened by tomorrow morning. :P

Sony's show is being live blogged everywhere at 5pm tomorrow. Just saying...
 
Like was said earlier, we might get some rumors and leaks and that sort of stuff, but don't expect anything official or really significant until we get into spring.
 
Agree with people that say they will be there behind closed doors...If I remember correctly, there were rumors that the Durango was there behind closed doors last year. They showed off bf3 on it.
 
Didn't MS show off the "Next Generation Xbox's UI" or something at CES 2005? They also gave away a bunch of HDTVs, I think. My memory's really hazy, but I vaguely remember seeing an early version of the blade UI before the "Our Colony" ARG began.
 
Apparently we won't be seeing any next gen consoles at CES but they ARE showing most of the generation after. Rumour is that next gen will be skipped over entirely.
 
I REALLY doubt we will get anything out of CES about the consoles. Not the right market.

I also really doubt we will have any kind of official announcements out of GDC but I'm sure we will get a ton of rumours out of the devs present. There's to many parties and developpers friends drinking together to not get some info out of it.
 
Sony:

Something do with 4K Bravia
Something do with Internet TV
Something do with Xperia phone
Something do with their next android tablet
 
We'll get rumors, and Sony/Microsoft might show the tech behind closed doors. But that's IT. No public announcements until E3.


Maybe Steambox though?
