PS4
« on: June 11, 2013, 12:35:44 AM »
So at E3 the new Playstation, the PS4 was finally revealed. It will be $399 US and most importantly it will not have any silly restrictions!

*Want to sell a game to someone via ebay? you can!
*Want to lend a game to a friend? you can, without any catches!
*Want to play your games years after PS4 stops being supported? you can!
*No internet connection? no worries! There is no required check in of any kind!

The crowd went mental for these announcements and it was clear Sony was taking shots at M$.

Sounds decent. Even the price is fairly reasonable.

I would post GIFs of PS4 curbstomping the competition, but that would be beating the dead horse, and it gets tiring after a couple of hours.

The only thing holding me back is backwards compatibility. I would like it to be able to run GT5 and The Last of Us, assuming I have saved enough money for one.

Yeah, the only thing people seem slightly annoyed about is the $5 a month subscription for multiplayer. But XBox Live did it for years, so it's clearly viable.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

There was/is a reason why I'm a proud fan of PS (after the PC of course)  :claping

Plus it gives you free games to play and other stuff. It's good to see that Nintendo will have competition this gen, that should make them eager to put out more games and cut prices etc.

I'd buy the PS4.
Seems too legit to be quit. And i'd probably get Sonic: Lost Worlds if it comes out on the PS4.

I don't think it's competition, as Sony/MS and Nintendo have different target demographics. I'm sure there's more than a couple of people who want to buy both the WiiU and PS4, but it's often if not always either PS4 or XB1 (not like there's much of a choice anyway).

Looks like it's back to playstation after 5 years of treachery with the 360.

Wont be surprised if I get a wii U at some point too.

I had a PS1, PS2 and PS3 before defecting to Microsoft because I knew more people on XBL. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore, so what the heck. SONY. TAKE ME NOW. MY BODY IS READY.

Bill Gates no longer owns Microsoft. From what I understand, it was sold to shareholders years ago.

I'm not defending Bill Gates, but I do firmly believe that Microsoft wouldn't be such a money-grubbing corporation if he was still involved in the decision making. He's a good businessman and understands that in order to make money, you have to make the consumer happy first.
