If its quick and responsive I don't really mind too much about the Metro/square interface. PS3 takes too long to load up messages when in game and its browser is virtually useless (especially when you have a big TV). If the new store is the same as the PC version I will be well happy.

So american...

"Dude, I'm dying over here, go get killzone!"

Oh, ok. I'll just buy that for $60 like it's nothing just cos you told me so.

Can't wait for the Irish adapted one

"Here prick, I'm getting fucked over here, get killzone ffs!"

"Good. Piss off and go ride yerself"

I don't mind the look of the tile UI, but I really hate those stupid noises when you move from title to tile.

I don't think I know any woman with any game console except a DS, let alone a brand new playstation 4 :rolleyes:
Although I gotta be honest, that video has actually raised my hype levels.

mozattack · 19-06-2013 1:05pm

Worse video ever...hurt my eyes.

PS4 pre-ordered.

BF4 awaits.

YES

More concerns about PS4 supplies at launch in the US. Gamestop US have told SCEA that they will buy all the stock Sony can supply to the states if they can.:eek:

Better get those pre orders in guys because it looks like you won't be able to pick a PS4 off a shelf this side of christmas without one.

Don't remind me

If pre orders are so sparse.... stay with the secure gamestop one, or move to HMV. Hmmmm

Why?

It's compatible to at least some degree.

Its too heavy, the battery life is absolute SHIITE!....terrible!, sick to death of having to plug it in every 3 hours, the sound profiles dont add much and i think the sound is better when the surround is switched off.

The DS4 has as headphone jack, any ould headset will work grand, i have a set of high end Sennheiser earbuds.....so flogged them. I'll need the cash for games etc.

I can't believe that article. I was just going through everyone's comments at the bottom and its early days yes but I was kinda expecting 60fps and 1080p on the PS4.

I think the real thread on that article should be about the developers being too crap to produce games at 60fps? To me watching a game video and trying to spot 60fps is a bit of a pain in the ass but you read so much online about 60fps. 60fps makes games look more interactive and maybe you would watch games/storyline more but I think the technique is a bit stuttery - like parts missing of an animation (as opposed to frames dropping).

Games at 30fps focus more on graphics and feel more relaxed and fluid to play. Game developers are either artists who know how to paint a picture and we have to wait and see or 60fps is so kind of neat trick for gamers that hasn't been mastered it yet.

last night, i opened a messaged and replied(after laggy keyboard problems) i then pressed the PS button to return to my game..took at least 40 seconds to get off the XMB interface...most frustrating thing about ps3:mad:

Microsoft has serious muscle so even though they might make a poor console they can still push things around.

That was expected when Win 8 Phone launched. Some success that's become.

That makes sense based on the size of the console.

Xbox supposedly changing used games + always online to coincide with PS4!

I use Android. Microsoft was too slow to move into mobile. I don't even know what a Windows phone is like to use. Looking forward to Windows 8.1 patch though and thats about it from MS.

Sony's new controller is a marvel in ergonomic design, and by our reckoning the most improved of the two next-gen pads.

Got that quote from eurogamer. Its the best quote I have ever read regarding PS4. The dualshock 3 has given me a fair few occasions of frustration.

Good for them. They need to drop the price tag by €100 while they are at it. MS makes enough money.
