Gaming PlayStation 4 (Console)

;)

So Weaste, can we expect your usual over-hyping of high-res shots and pre-rendered video that'll show little of what the graphics will actually be, whilst convincing people it is a massive leap forward? Because that's always my favourite bit ;)

Leaked early prototype of the Playstation 4 pad. It's been confirmed by multiple 'sources' apparently and Sony has responded to our inquiry to note that it "can't comment on rumors or speculation".

Another source has told IGN that the mysterious space in the middle of the controller can be pressed like a button, something Kotaku's source has also stated. Our separate source also indicates that the R2 and L2 buttons may actually be more in line with spring-loaded Xbox 360-like triggers and that the light atop the controller is indeed a PlayStation Move sensor.

It's an early prototype so expect the final version to look better but you can see the basic idea of the pad.
 
I'm assuming the touch pad will also replace the start/select buttons?
 
There were some rumours doing the rounds yesterday that the analog sticks were being replaced with touch pads. Thank feck that was all bollocks!
 
The 'prototype' looks like a cheap Madcatz controller.
 
A Move sensor?

No! :lol:
I hope not. I would prefer a controlled designed around proper use for gaming, than one that has had a move sensor shoved into it. Just keep a separate controller for all the move crap. If people want that they buy the separate controlled

If they could get away with it so soon, they'd just have a black Wii-U controller and be done with it.

You're missing the point..... the Move sensor is the PS Eye, not the glowing bulb on the Move controller.
 
Well stick a ping pong ball on it, and you've got yourself a deal!

Just saying that it's a far more sensible thing to interact and stream shit to devices that people already own than trying to make your own shitty tablet type device. Obviously, VITA would be the best controller in such a situation rather than an iPod, because it has all of the meat.
 
Another pic of this potential controller has found its way onto the internets.

Lets all f.a.p to it.
 
Looks a bit more refined in that picture, hard to know what it'll be though, seeing as the boomerang was the controller until everyone moaned about it. Definitely see the new features remaining, case of design left for question.
 
I hope that port at the bottom is a microphone jack, no more running headphone cables half way across the room.
 
What time does the Weaste Wanking Event start on the 20th?
 
Some mockup I found.

Now that I could get on board with, but wouldn't it be a monster on draining the battery. OK for the likes of me who only plays in short spurts but would be a nightmare for you addicts.

That's a good shout actually.
 
That looks awful. Looks like it will feel awful. It looks like a Playstation 1 controller in squareness and button size.

Still it will probably turn into the PS4 controller.

I'd like to remind Sony that the Select and Start buttons are used in game, for example in GTA 3, VC and SA.

Also Grey and Black. #throwup
 
Grey and black?? It's shiny black and Matt black and the colour scheme is class looking. The button layout is probably a little off, but I think it's reasonable to assume it's a close thing.
