The Playstation 4 has been unvieled today. But i can only find pics of the controller and some screenshots of a game.

Its set to go on sale some time in November this year.

:D :D

The screen shots for Killzone 4 look sick.

Don't know about the shape of the Dualshock 4 though. :? But I'm a traditionalist and I love that original shape of the dualshock. We were talking about the PS4 at tradeschool last week and one of my workmates heard sony wanted more buttons on the Dualshock controller, doesn't seem to look that way.

And no PS3 backwards compatibility, what a crock of sh!t. Although guess we'll find more soon about this Playstation cloud thing.

A first for me, but I'm going to give to give this console a miss. Ps1 was great, ps2 was very good, ps3 was meh.

I don't think the ps4 will be as "expensive" as Sony's other consoles on launch day.

They can't afford to be, if the price is too high they just won't sell, regular/hardcore gamers will probably buy the PS4 but casual gamers will continue to stay with/choose Ipads, Tablets etc. over consoles if they're $700 plus.

I doubt they'd play games on Ipads or tablets over ANY console. Microsoft will bring the new Xbox out cheaper than the PS4 no matter what price Sony put on it, but I think itll be cheaper than the $800 I paid for my PS3 bundle when it came out.

Im just wondering if Microsoft are developing an answer to Blu-ray that they can put in the Xbox. When the PS3 came out it was cheaper to buy that than buy a stand alone Blu-ray player, and you got a game console as well.

I dont see Sony allowing Microsoft to make the Xbox Blu-ray compatible any time soon.

Oh ok. Yeah I just checked out the news on the Xbox. Im still gonna go with the PS4. Ive had Playstations since the PSX and will always do so. Ive never had a problem with them and have only ever had to buy one of each the PSX, PS2 and PS3. I know of a few people having to replace Xbox because of terminal problems.

Its hard to really gauge how good the graphics are going to be from the videos Ive seen of gameplay. But Id say PS4 and Xbox probably wont be far apart. Theres rumours that the Xbox wont be able to match the spec of the PS4 though.

Maybe. Let's just wait for an announcement from Microsoft before we start round 3 of the fan boy wars. ;-)

What platform is the best...?

Just checking out some games since the PS4 is available to pre-order now.

Just watched these videos. They look awesome already. I like how "The Division" is different to any game Ive ever played. And the way the police cars take damage looks sweet.

Tom Clancy's The Division



Killzone: Shadow Fall



Watch them in HD. Amazing.

the division is amazing even the voices sound realistic, imagine playing in full hd on a big screen with the sound cranking. looks like i'll be ordering it.
