My iPad likely has better hardware already than these "next-gen" toasters.

That is the very reason why I like consoles as a PC gamer.

...same here. I like not having to upgrade GPU's/PC's (just for gaming) very often. Not that I did it a lot anyway, but it's been even less often for a while now. It's not consoles lack of processing/graphic power that has irritated me (as a pc gamer) with the console-catering.

Live stream on ign now

Press conference: One of my favourite bands Metric is on, then blah blah blah gamer centric blah blah blah multi dimensional experiences blah blah blah pushing the boundaries of play blah blah blah new industry standard. I hate marketing bull****.

Confirmed: 8GB unified memory, GDDR5.

Confirmed: Touchpad in middle of gamepad like OUYA.

Confirmed: Lightbar between triggers for Move-like tracking.

 

Bull****: "We've made the GPU to be a general computing device" Pretty sure Nvidia and AMD already did that.

 

Confirmed: Sleep, power maintains state in RAM while everything else is powered down.

Confirmed: Downloading in background while you game.

Confirmed: Hardware decode and encode.

 

Confirmed: Demo'ing ability, record, tag, upload.

Confirmed: Integration of social networks. Yay! Facebook on my Playstation!

Hopefully the personalization **** can be turned off...

So it'll try to figure out what game you might next purchase via your tastes and preload it? Is that what I'm hearing or did I misunderstand.

 

edit: now it seems like some think they meant being able to play while still finishing a download. Which makes perfect sense, except I swear I heard something about anticipating your next purchase. Maybe I have the reference points mixed up. Bah. Enough of that.

Confirmed: OnLive type streaming and broadcast.

Confirmed: Nvidia SHIELD and WiiU style streaming with PS Vita.

Confirmed: Backwards compatibility through cloud.

HOLY. ****ING. SHIIIIIIIIIIT. UNIFIED MEMORY. UNIFIED MEMORY. *ticker tape parades spontaneously start across the world*

It's going to force you to communicate with a bunch of smiley **** when all you want to do is sit indoors alone playing, isn't it? #PS4

Confirmed: Can take control of other people's games over PSN. Much trolling will ensue.

 

Scary: "[We're]...going to follow you where ever you go."

Leaked info about next gen console specs.

 

Oh, so he much worse (in the eyes of the law) than someone has manslaughter and rape a hobby of theirs? No wonder people lack confidence in their governments.

 

You are comparing bad apples to bad oranges.

He is, but at the same time he makes a good point, they're giving 20 years

Anything about used games?

Stupid trailer for perhaps Killzone 4, the stream keeps cutting out. Might be real time might not be (actually it isn't), only a cut scene, doesn't actually give any impression of anything. Attack of the glade. I might as well be looking at Crysis 3 nanosuit guy in Mass Effect 3's world, very generic.

 

Why the hell would I want pop the hood and look at the engine in a racing game? Why would I care that the fabric changes when I brush it, why would I even be looking at it in a game? So pointless.

 

Buzzword bingo: "depth of gameplay that give us a new level of immersion"

So from my understanding, they'll use Gaikai to stream PS1/2/3 games on all devices - including PC?

 

Sure, why not.

 

Infamous looked stupid, Killzone looks more of the same.

Killzone 4 was way too generic, Drive Club looked cool with the detailed cars, Infamous 3 was just a cut scene, and Jonathan Blows game was hmmmm lol

You sir, have excellent taste in music.

The Emotion-Man is talking again.

inFAMOUS didn't look impressive, but I'll get it because I enjoyed the other games in the series. I liked Braid, The Witness looked cool too.

Looking forward to real-time simulated Old Man Balls.

i can literally see this guy's soul much like charlie murphy saw rick james' aura.

David Cage is literally the worst. He doesn't care about gaming, and he trivializes things like emotion. That was just a model that's been textured and animated, I'm likely going to be stabbing similar ones in the eye in a year or two, and I will love it.

 

My stream's video crashed before the next video came on, I'm imagining how awesome the trailer is that goes with this guitar riff.

Haha you're buying this piece of crap?

Sure, sometime in 2015.

Haven't I seen this from Square before? Only it wasn't at 5 frames per second at 240p resolution.

Edited February 21, 201312 yr by AwesomeOcelot

All I see here is movies and tech demos. Great that Sony hasn't changed a bit.

Awww, I'd hug that guy.

Watch Dogsssss

Love that games like inFamous and Watch Dogs are shown in the PS4 conference that's going to be "following you everywhere", streaming, and integrating social networks.

Watch out for the Daaaawwwgs.
