:lol: fanboys on gaf are saying it's too early to reveal the ps4 now that theres a rumor that the 720 will be revealed in march or april. They say that the hype of the ps4 will be dead lmao.

They're pushing for 8GB of GDDR5? Damn man. That's expensive.
Tall poppy syndrome lol.
the PS4 would be the obvious choice for my only Nextgen system (going off the rumours), but if the controller does not have proper triggers that devs are made to use over L1/R1. then i'll not be buying one at all.
I bought some proper triggers for my ps3 controller. Just popped them on and everything was a go
Lol good stuff :p
I do worry about Europe though (I know, I've mentioned it across threads xD). But if the next Xbox launches fall '13 across Europe with a next gen CoD and Fifa, and there's no PS4s here - then Sony will be fighting a losing battle IMO until something like GT6 comes out
CoD and Fifa are that relevant across europe, especially the latter
I agree. I don't think things will start off slow at all at the start of next gen and for sony to miss out on that would be a huge mistake. I think jp should be the market to receive the console last. Their impact at launch will be the same regardless of when they release it there.
Definitely. With the momentum and hype this 20th February event has gathered in just a few days it shows a lot of people are hungry for a true next gen (sorry WiiU), and for a console launch it's these people on message boards or ign etc that are the initial target really - so this is good news. Wouldn't be great for the industry if next gen started slow
I wish Sony can somehow spring a surprise on us and launch worldwide like Xbox will. Nintendo do it too
It's not like last gen where the Xbox brand was still a bit of an unknown - it's now an extremely relevant brand and it would be foolish for Sony to let them have a headstart in this region. I agree about Japan but it just won't happen since it's home territory
Surprise us Sony!
It will ,launcph in March 2014 in Europe. Just how powerful tje ps4 will be than the next xbox because of slightly better bandwidth? Remeber folks the ps3 had
Better bandwidth and the games didnt look much better than the 369.
Did you all ever read the quote right. Sony never said they were pushing to add 8gb gddr5. What they said to developers was that they were sure that the 4gb gddr5 would be able to match up against MS 8GB ram. Read the statement again.
Great to know that they are following the vita's ease of development footsteps. Hopefully this means no more bullshit 3rd party ports. I don't think tools will be a problem as it was with the ps3.Quote:
Sony has already earned an enormous amount of goodwill among studios working with PS4 development hardware. Privately, Sony representatives have conceded that the company made a mistake in creating such esoteric architecture for PS3, and its strategy for PS4 gives developers more opportunities this time around, notably because the hardware is much more PC-like in its makeup than PS3.
Even before this was stated, rumors suggested that the ps4 was a little stronger and had simple tech. I wonder what kind of engine they're working with? A current gen engine that scales up or a tailor made next gen engine that can't run games on current gen?Quote:
One source familiar with both platforms tells us that in real terms Sony’s console is “slightly more powerful” and “very simple to work with”.
I can't wait to see what sony's first party does with a powerful easy tech.
That just means games will look magnificent from day1 but the improvement over the years will be marginal compared to what we had with ps3.
Lmao at all the arguing about to happen when the final specs are released for both.

Sony had a lot of input from American engineers so the ps4 wouldnt be difficult to grasp and will have better developement tools and OS.....its not too early to start getting people hyped for the Ps4. mS made there mistake last month for not talking the next xbox at ces 2013 .
MS needs to do something in the next few months to get info out for 720 imo because the hype for PS4 has gotten very big. If they wait to long I think next gen could be a role reversal from the current gen.
