Seems like a waste of the memory...

Interesting, Sony might sway me if the console is closely related to the Vita - which is a sinking ship right now - but failing that I look forward to Microsoft's response.

Dark_Messiah 01-02-13 18:32

I love it. Sony said that they'll let Microsoft announce their hardware first about 2 weeks ago. And Microsoft probably did not expect THAT to happen. Now Sony will own the next-gen hype train on their own for a long time.

trfanX34 01-02-13 18:32

Oooh can't wait to see more :D

Mikky 01-02-13 18:32

I won't be getting a PS4 for a [b][i]long[/b][/i] time. Probably not until PS6 is out. I mean, I don't even have a PS3 yet. :p

But I am still excited to see the announcement on the 20th, if it really is the PS4. I bet it's going to be a huge brick of a console. :pi:

Hopefully with alot of power inside of it, so that PC games finally start to improve.. :D

Zebra 01-02-13 18:35

Sony is probably going to troll everyone and the PS4 will simply be a Gaikai streaming device :p.

Legend of Lara 01-02-13 18:41

Or a PS3 with a post-it note with '4' drawn on it covering the '3'.

At [I]triple[/I] the price!

[QUOTE=DragonSlayer;6631501]The one thing i would like to see make a comeback for PS4 is action replay cheat devices, i had a mad laugh using action replay on GTA San Andreas, lots of weird :cen: happened when i used it cars randomly floating off into the sky cars falling through the ground, and massive pile-ups of cars in the cities, similar to what happens on the freeways but bigger, at one point there were up to 40 cars piled up outside the police station.[/QUOTE]
Unfortunately the days of those cheat discs are over. Ain't no lil' cheat disc not gon' do no hackin'.

If they use the Vita bubbles I'll hit my head against the wall.

Sounds gayer than there being a permanent Singstar icon. :p

oocladableeblah 01-02-13 20:25

I hope it doesn't use the bubbles. It is great for the Vita, but not for a console on a TV. I do hope they add more online features and also more things with the Vita. The Vita is so underrated.

Carbonek_0051 01-02-13 20:31

Good thing I still haven't got a PS3. It better be improved and have good launch titles. If not I will just get a PS3.

[QUOTE=Carbonek_0051;6631700]Good thing I still haven't got a PS3. It better be improved and have good launch titles. If not I will just get a PS3.[/QUOTE]

I'd say still buy a PS3 anyway, because you never know the PS4 might not be backwards compatible.

Carbonek_0051 01-02-13 20:39

I'm playing the waiting game, I'm not rich. Lol

Zebra 01-02-13 20:52

I think the PS4 will certainly have backwards compatability through Gaikai. However, you'll need a relatively fast internet connection for that and they'll probably also charge people who already have the games on disc. Would be awesome if they didn't though (put your PS3 disc into your PS4 drive, let the console verify it and then play it via Gaikai).

trlestew 01-02-13 23:36

The next generation?

I'm eager to see what this is about. We've already gotten a sample of the graphic capabilities, but what else does Sony have to bring?


PS1: CD based games with 3D graphics. Revolutionary at the time, and capable of CDDA and FMV playback; something new at the time.
PS2: 3D graphics with shaders/ Online Play/ EyeToy
PS3: 3D graphics with better shaders/ Wireless, SIXAXIS DualShock/ better online connectivity/ online store/ PS Move[COLOR="White"](lol no)[/COLOR]
PS4: ???

That's just a picture though. If I had the skillz, I could knock that together in Photoshop. I thought there was a rolling demo, which would be kind of impossible because Sony haven't even admitted the PS4 exists, so how can we have seen examples of its graphical capabilities?

Demos running on PC hardware speculated to be matched, or even succeeded by PS4 hardware.

The Cyberpunk teaser trailer is CGI...

[QUOTE=sackboy123;6631008]If the PS4 comes out does that mean there will cancel the Internet for the PS3 like there did for the PS2 :([/QUOTE]

Doubt it, it'd drop support however. The PS2 online was killed off because the number of people that actually used it by 2007 was jokingly small.

Dark_Messiah 02-02-13 14:53

[QUOTE=MyRaider4Life;6632371]The Cyberpunk teaser trailer is CGI...[/QUOTE]

No, its their REDengine 3 running in real time. Only the last bit at the end when they are in the helicopter is CGI.
Obviously, games made with this engine will never look that good. A video only needs some assets. A game needs many assets loaded at the same time with AI, Physics etc running in the background. So I doubt that we'll reach that level of quality in gameplay on the next-gen consoles.
If that happens, only on PC and in a few years.

Its like the first AC3 trailer they released. That was in-engine and realtime but the game did look nothing like that because its not possible.

_Awestruck_ 02-02-13 15:09

Late to the party, but :yah:

Did you see those AC III target gameplay footage from IGN making of videos? Those were really cool too.

It's just a placeholder

Yes, but it's ridiculous, since the thing hasn't even been announced yet.

Dingaling 02-02-13 21:25

If the controller looks like that it'll pretty much be perfect :tmb:.

trfanX34 02-02-13 23:06

The hot and cold metal filaments are genious! I wouldn't like burning and freezing my hands while playing though, and it probably would consume a lot of battery :/

And, Sony, backlit buttons plz kthxbai
