Things you want Sony to Change/Add on the PS4 ?

[Completely Average]

HDMI input and the ability to use it as a 1080p DVR.

Playstation Home to replace the XMB

The UI. From what I see, I don't like it. I'm not gonna say I hate it since I haven't tried it but from the pictures I've seen, I'm not excited about it one bit.

Playstation Home to replace the XMB

I've thought about this idea. as much as I would like it, I realize it's not for everyone. It's so niche, in fact, that asking for it is unrealistic.

The biggest thing for me is better advertising/promotion.

Not only in the media, but in the system itself as well. I'm not saying take up the whole main screen xbox style, but maybe an expansion of the "what's new" section on the ps3. How about displaying this when you boot up your ps4 (with the option to disable it)? So many great games and features go unnoticed. The recommended purchases feature announced at the unveiling is a great step towards rectifying this.

I read that Sony signed a deal with a new ad agency. I hope they will do better to promote the ps4 and its games. The other day I saw a pre-video ad on youtube for the ps4. Very wise decision and I hope that trend continues. Better ads= more customers= higher quantity/quality games and more money for sony and developers=better for everyone.

Other than that, I would like to see more home integration (more spaces, more developers implementing home into their games, psvita support, the trophy room that was shown a few years ago), more games supporting keyboard and mouse, saving of network settings (mentioned above), auto detect AV settings (I can't tell you how many friends of mine have their ps3 set to standard definition on an hdtv) and a deeper psn profile

And they should definitely keep the ability to change themes. Maybe even make it more customizable (going along with the "personal" aspect of ps4). Also the boot screens for games. How about your theme changing depending on which game you have inserted?

The Dualshock 4 has an audio jack... I want to hear the whole game through there if possble, for late night gaming when the fam is sleeping ><

I dont know how feasible that is though

They need to add a more appealing and attractive interface and a avatar to dress up and have fun with

[keefy]

Something tells me that if Microsoft and Sony can get away with the current DD overpricing, its not going change any time soon.
How Steam can offer such a good prices compared to DD on consoles is still a big mystery to me...

Steam isnt new, its coming uo for its 10 birthday this September and let me tell you Steam was just the same as Sony with its pricing, they were often more expensive than retail games plus add in the $$$ to ££££ conversions ( it took at least 4 years to get prices in my own currency) made for a very expensive game also in the begining sales were few and far between.

Interesting. Xbox Live has been out since about 2001. I am not sure when it started offering DD of disc based games, but it could have been around the time 360 launched, so that's 2005. Or it could have been slightly later.
So, going by that logic, they might change their pricing strategies at around 2015, with Sony following in 2016.
I hope you're right. Though I really would not want to wait 3 mores years before DD of disc based games are at a considerably reasonable price compared to the physical media.

Just busting you balls man. I just always thought that the avatars were too kiddy for my taste. I like the customization part of it but I never liked it on Wii or Xbox. I don't want to see it on PS.

[DeadCrow]

I want them to add a party system like the 360.

4k resolution for games!

I don't think we'll see 4k anytime soon lol least not til ps5

[kermit_criminal]

but seriously aside from price i feel the biggest issue that i hope is changed this generation is lack of advertising. Sony marketed the heck out of ps2 as did MS for Xbox360. Sony needs to make sure the general public understands the ps4 is the "Cool" system. no more creepy baby dolls plz

Add internet connection saving!!! Oh my god, this is probably one of the easiest things to over look but the constantly having to change your internet setting if you go somewhere with you PS3 was so annoying. We used to have lan parties at my friends house. Change it when I get there. Have to go through the whole new connection process only to have to do the same thing when I get back home. Just please have the ability to save wireless connection setting for the love of god.

I agree. I have to change it between 3 connections quite often and when two of them are 24 characters with uppercase, lowercase and numbers I get quite fed up of it.

That would be brilliant if it can be done. I would probably end up using it an awful lot.

The ability to create a custom avatar would be nice too.

[kermit_criminal]

also.. typing messages on ps3 is a pain in the butt. hopefully the touchpad on the ps4 controllers make it easier to type

If you mean voice chat then I think they already announced that.

[The Black Wolf]

I want them to go back to putting the system updates on game discs. It helps out people with no internet or people with slow internet.

That wouldn't be feasible. They'd need to charge for it then and people don't want that.

If you have a slow connection or no internet, you really shouldn't need these consoles...you're wasting half of your money. A person should just stick with PC for that matter...which is actually more expensive so never mind, yea just don't buy them lol.

EDIT: Oh you mean, game discs...yea they already do that but only when they come out with new editions.

[Joe Zombie]

i dont really care for the touch pad on the control, so i wouldn't mind if they did away with it. or possibly did something better.

Agreed. I think the controller looks awkward. They did a lot of things right with it, but I'm iffy about that touch screen.

[ImSiCkOfYoU]

You haven't even used it yet. 0_o

well technically if you have a vita, than you have used it. and honestly i don't use it much.
