Gaming PlayStation 4 (Console)

They could've just released a statement announcing the PS4 and put those clips on YouTube instead. Waste of time.
 
I've never been the biggest Playstation fan or anything but, why are we bothered what it looks like? It's pretty much the least important thing.

Agree from an individual consumer level, but am surprised that Sony didn't take the opportunity to have pics of their device all over the news.

Can only assume it is not finalised...
 
All very impressive where it matters but I wanted to see the fecking console!

Fair enough, i can understand that but i didn't watch it to see what the console looked like. I watched it to see what it could do. What it looks like is neither here nor there to me and i don't think it's all that much of an issue for most people.

Yeah I agree joking aside I was quite impressed with some of the features. The streaming and cloud gaming sounds interesting and Im happy Sony are teaming up with Blizzard. Well worth getting a Vita now if anybody is getting a PS4 with the ability to stream games to it.
 
I wanted to see what the console looked like. But at the end of the day it is the least important thing.

The controller and the games are the main event are they not. A lot of the games looked pretty damn good IMO.

You feckers are too hard to please.
 
Watchdogs is the only thing that looked good/fun enough to tempt me to buy the console. Everything else looks like PS3 tech with a bit of a spit polish. I'd be surprised if the XBox720's launch isn't more impressive than this; Sony shot their load too early.

...And no actual unveiling?! What's that all about?
 
Men are stimulated visually so why couldn't they compensate us with some decent looking women instead of well groomed men?
 
Good news, you can preorder a PS4 for £400 from ShopTo.net.

We just wanted to look at a box, we're very easy to please!
 
Did they give the ps4 specs and controller details at least? I missed the first 20 mins.

All I got was mostly multiplatform games and f'ing facebook ads.
 
I still wonder why Sony bothered to organise this Press Conference. Wouldn't having this after E3, 1 month before the launch of the PS4, more impactful? That's where they can discuss launch date, price and show-off polished launch games.
 
It matters to me what it looks like. The size, shape and price of the PS4 is of far more interest to me than some generic, sub-pixar cgAnimated demo. Is it the size of a house with an air con unit on the back? or have they managed to cram what seems to be a powerful system, into a manageable sized box.

My best guess would be a pre-emptive strike. Maybe Microsoft are about to unveil theirs soon.

Hardware and philosophy-wise the PS4 hits the right spots for gamers.

8GB DDR5 RAM, decent souped up x86 processor and 2TF gfx card. Controller is what the rumours stated.
 
No EA there tonight...them greedy feckers are always sniffing around these type of events. Seems quite weird.
 
The only game I'm interested in from those is Watchdogs, but I was interested in that before. I assume more games will be talked about at PAX East and E3.

Games I won't be buying: Destiny or D3. Why are they making D3 for PS? I know Activision isn't in the business of creating new things, but at least Blizzard could put some effort into it. "OMG we ported the game to PS4!!!"

If Valve had been there...HL3 for PS4? That would have been the most epic game/console releases of all-time.

I'm not sure EA and Activision would want to present at the same event. They don't like each other very much.
 
:lol: would have been funny to see them announce FIFA and Madden for PS4 though!

Think that would be for e3. However, I don't expect anything groundbreaking from their sports titles this year. The user base will still mostly be on 360/ps3 so that's where their focus will be. Next gen consoles will be testing grounds for their development team as they shift over to next gen for next year's iterations.
 
Tech guys are really excited about the ps4. Epic/UnrealEngine3-4 guy saying "ps3 was decent but ps4 is really great"
 
So after all that did we at least learn what sort of hardware the thing is running? Or was it only pretty game visuals and talk all night?

Oh and where is weaste, he must be devastated with no reveal
