Supermalt Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Following yesterday’s Future of PlayStation tease from Sony, new rumors suggest that the PlayStation 4 will be announced this month, released this year and may even let players share videos and screenshots directly. Anonymous sources have told both Polygon and The Wall Street Journal that the event will indeed be the announcement of Sony’s next console and that Sony is aiming to release the system before the end of the year. The Wall Street Journal suggests that Sony “is planning to incorporate more social gaming aspects into the new machine” and “is more focused this time on the changes in how users interact with the machine.” Edge Online, meanwhile, also reports that the next PlayStation will be out before the end of the year in the U.S. and Japan (but early 2014 in Europe) and says it will be more powerful than the next console from Microsoft. The system will allegedly feature a redesigned controller, which fits with rumors of Sony abandoning the DualShock that circulated earlier this month. According to Edge, the system “will ship with a redesigned controller which is the same size as an existing DualShock but features a small touchpad in place of the existing Select, Start and PS buttons. The tech is based on Vita’s rear touchpad, and is similarly responsive in use.” Edge also refers to specific elements of the controller mentioned in a leaked list of specs last week. Specifically, Edge says Sony’s new controller will feature a Share button that will “launch a new feature that will allow screenshots and video to be distributed online.” The system will reportedly “continually record the most recent 15 minutes of onscreen action, which users will then be able to edit and broadcast via the Internet.” For now, the future of PlayStation is uncertain, but Sony told IGN yesterday "The PlayStation meeting will be about the future of the PlayStation business." Our PlayStation team will attend Sony’s event in New York City later this month, so keep checking back for confirmed news as it’s announced. http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/02/01/playstation-4-rumors-spread-following-sony-tease 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambino Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Sony getting that head start on Microsoft this year and if reports are true it is more powerful than Microsofts console again. Probably won't rush out to buy any though. See how things turn out for both consoles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtis Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 WSJ: Sony will use Gaikai streaming tech to play PS3 games on the PS4 We're just a few days away from Sony's February 20th "see the future of" PlayStation event where we expect to see the next edition of its home console, and the rumor mill is buzzing. The latest one tonight comes from the Wall Street Journal, with a report that connects Sony's $380 million purchase of cloud gaming service Gaikai last year with a method to provide backwards compatibility on the PlayStation 4. The WSJ reports Sony has been "investing heavily" in preparing Gaikai for an influx of PS4-equipped gamers, while also developing better cameras for its Move and the DualShock+touchpad controllers we've seen recently. What's not revealed however, is any potential pricing plan, or whether cloud games will work users existing cloud saves. While buying fully digital copies of games we already own is less than appealing, if Sony can implement something like the abandoned UMD-to-PSP Go "good will" plan, then there may be benefits for all. http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/15/sony-ps4-gaikai-streaming-rumor/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badman Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hopefully the next generation will see the end of consumable media aka the compact disk With the slow deaths of the high street retailers I think this will most likely be the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illusion Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Won't make the same mistake twice, will buy the 720 instead. My opinion exactly. The hacking on the Ps3's online games and the way they did nothing about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
