PS4

[i am a snail]

Snail- If you have a ps3 and and a Ps4 why care for backwards incompatibility /only reason you are mad at any of the ps4 is because you got a xbox and now your a fan boy but from what seems what xbox wont be released till 2014

fucking lol not at all
ive been a sony fanboy since the beginning. i have owned every system they have put out since the ps1, including the vita, which was a christmas gift. the vita really isn't that great of a portable system at all, it's too large and cumbersome to fit into my pocket nicely and i'm not about to whip it out of a backpack to play persona 4 on the bus. the social network sharing seems like nothing more than free advertisement for other games, and frankly why should any of my facebook friends know when i'm playing a video game? and the "paying for online features" is mostly what kept me in sony's pocket for the longest time, since their online service was free as opposed to xbox live.

edit: in regards to the controller, it was more of a question of "why bother with the touch capabilities?" if you're going to keep the same small controller design, why put this massive block in the middle that doesn't really do anything other than be an awkward addition that takes up design space?

every new console gen there's a ton of cool bells and whistles,some useful some just eye candy.
idk,my ps3 does everything i'd care to be able to do with a game system for the time being.
guess i could just care less about having the latest thing on the market anymore..old age has brought a sense of practicality

as far as the controller having touch screen and move functions..meh.i bought all that move stuff and used it maybe 5 times and sold it

before they just had the start select and home buttons. rarely used select. Not sure where the home button is. Your finger hardly went to that area. So its not taking up space in terms of play. and design space? Who gives a fuck what the controller looks like? What is this, fucking apple where everything they do is fancy dancy looking and overpriced. Your eyes will be to your TV. I know im going to like its feel. Same as PS3. Looks a bit more comfortable. Function > form

It will be used like the back of the vita. that touch pad is used for minute parts of games but its a cool addition to change the play up.

cause there was limited games for it
but now its standard. So almost every game will take advantage of it. And you dont need any extra stuff or specialized games. That why you barely played it. Just focused on other games. And again its not going to be pure move stuff. It's just something extra for developers to play with

Might not see if now, but if your a metal gear solid fan, you know Kojima is one of the most creative minds out there. And I look forward to see what he come up with these

wasn't for lack of games,just couldn't get into it.just not my thing i guess.
i've heard talk of integrating it to the dualshock 4 so didnt come as a surprise.

i'm sure i'll eventually get one,just not gonna be soon.can't justify spending another $400-600 on a new system when the ps3 works just fine.

Is it that fucking hard to talk about consoles without it turning into a debate? I've yet to see it happen.

[momadaddy]

i for one am not looking forward to the pricing of the new consoles. the 8gb of ddr5 in the ps4 is pricey by itself

PS4 Summed Up:


Ok, I have 3 things that make PS4 "win" in my book.
1) Watch Dogs
2) Ability to play Thrasher: Skate and Destroy/Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX and stream them easily for your friends.
3) Watch Dogs

Yes.
Everyone is different and they have different opinions. I have yet to see the "SONY SUX, XBOX IS BETTUR LUL!" reply. or visa versa xbox sux, ps3 haazah!.....so we're doing pretty good. Dont see the problem.
