Should I move on to PS4 or stick with PS3 for now?

I don't know how long PlayStation Network will remain on PS3 once PS4 is released or if it will be removed right away. I'm not worried about missing out on games at all because I'm only looking forward to Infamous: Second Son. I just want to know how long I can continue using my PS3 for online gaming before I have to upgrade to PS4. Also, do you know if we can use PS3 accessories on the PS4 (controller, headsets, etc.)?

    The PS3's PSN should remain up for the next three years at least; Sony has said the PS3 will have about a 5 year life span after the PS4 launch, and a few hundred games are still in development for the PS3. No your PS3 accessories will not work with the PS4.

    I don't suggest getting a PS4 right away for several reasons:

    1. All the Sony exclusives they announced at E3 are coming to the PS3 as well as the PS4.

    2. Many of the cool features the PS4 will have are not actually going to be available until summer of 2014.

    3. The current PS4 model has already shown signs of overheating issues. I recommend waiting for a different model to come out.

    I got my PS3 in 2011 then i heard about Grand Theft Auto 5 and The Last Of Us. The. There was the PS4. So i thought i would buy the 2 games and then the PS4. And the accessories: the ps3 remote wont work because of the new one (it has a touch pad and motion light). The bluetooth and keyboards will probably work too
