domain PS4Talk.com etc...

[MatthewN]

I purchased a few domain names recently...

PS4Talk.com
PS4Forum.com
PS4Chat.com
PS4orum.com

Edit... for those who do not know... PS4 is Playstation 4 (PS3 is about to be released)

Obviously it's a few years before the PS4 is released (probably 2012 at a rough guess)

Any ideas on the value of each now and closer to the release date?

long term being 4 years minimum looking at current PS lifecycle

Yes, thats a long long term investment, but you got nice names

However, you neve know if Sony will change the name of the next system...example: xbox 2 was not called xbox 2...so maybe ps4 wont be called ps4

can't really put a resell price on these yet

 

[maroulis]

nah.. I seriously doubt that ... hold on to them the sites you listed will bring at least $1K each at the right end-user...

Hey, Matthew, this is me "ShytKicker" from your forums Welcome aboard.

Definetely hold onto them. Or sell them to me for cheap. :hehe:

Good job thinking long-term, but as someone already said, I doubt they'll call it the PS4. It's getting a bit repetative.

XBox -> XBox 360
Nintendo -> Nintendo Revolution

If the PS4 does come out, though, these should bring in quite a bit.

I was thinking that about the name but I think what helps is that they have followed suit so far with the PS1, PS2 and PS3. They might change the name but havent done yet. Also I think many people will be expecting it to be called the PS4 and that may help too.

I guess developing the sites can yeild a lot higher income depending on how big and busy the place gets. Time to get more and more content on there me thinks!

Thanks guys!

Edit: I also noticed a PS5 domain today Thats very long term.

Definetly a goldmine when PS4 comes out.. Hang on to them buddy!

 

[maroulis]

and I bet you $100 (come and find me when it launches) it WILL BE CALLED PS4

 

[RobertM]

Very nice domains. Wish I would have thought about them before you. =)

Btw, I think Sony will stick to the name PS4.

 

[MatthewN]

Thanks guys! I will hold on to them then and see if I can get some traffic there and some good posts etc...

now that's pushing it.. PS3 is in speculation mode and you want to have posts on PS4

 

[MatthewN]

Maybe not just yet :D although it seems that they have signed a contract for what people think is the next processor... so maybe a few speculative posts. The next two years I can pretty much see it sitting there mainly unused.

They havnt even released the PS3 yet, it took them 6 years to develop and release a console from PS2 so you have a long wait...id say 5 years minimum.

You wont get a forum going with PS4 unless you can stir something up, for that youd need legit info on the PS4! Im pretty sure they havnt even started to develop it yet!

Nice sites, but yu might be out of luck, i think the next PS after 3 will go by a different name.
