Having or not having optical spdif isn't that much of an issue anymore, when you can send 7.1 audio digitally over HDMI anyway.Originally Posted by Bolivar

Hahaha I heard about them having a touchscreen, but damn, whatever it is, that thing is small!
What do you guys think the Blue Light is for? Extra bit of personalization???
Kinda sad about the sticks. That's always been the most arbitrary criticism - that concave is better than convex or whatever. PS Analog sticks have always been perfect for me.
At first glance, there isn't much I like about that new controller. =| Still, at least my expectations are now very low.
EDIT: While very possible it's just an awkward positioning of the controller / wire connection, it looks like that controller is permanently wired, in which case I don't think it's the real controller.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Ugh. Calm the smurf down everyone.
First, it's not even verified to be a real PS4 controller. Second, if it is, it is probably a prototype.

Don't tell us to calm down about something we found on the internet that has a small possibility of being true. What if that is the real controller?
I know, right!?

3 different sites confirmed it to be a PROTOTYPE from their sources.
Some things to note:
-it's not a "touch screen" in the middle but a "touchpad" similar to the back of the Vita
-They're finally giving us convex analog sticks
-The top glowing blue thing might be PS Move integration (SixAxis kinda sucks)
-The silver box is indeed a PS4 dev kit
Three different sites, using the same unconfirmed source?

I dunno. In the IGN article they reached out to their own source after they saw the article on destructoid and their source confirmed it.Three different sites, using the same unconfirmed source?
The Countdown has begun!
Evolution of Playstation Pt.1 PSone
Apparently it's going to stream PS3 games, possibly as a solution to a lack of backwards compatibility.
The PS4 will not be able to play PS3 game. The PS4 will not be using the Cell processor (to save costs of course) so backwards compatibility will be a no go for next gen.
Emulation may be possible in the future, but Sony seems to have found a stop gap with Gaikai (the streaming service they bought for $380 million last year). I would imagine PS+ integration or some kind of detection system where you put you PS3 game in, it registers it with your account and lets you stream it (sky's the limit before the reveal right?).
What would be really neat is if we could get Gaikai on the Vita and PC's!
i just want to note that there's a user in the comments section named Roto13
WHAT A SMALL WORLD
Streaming games is useless for any game that has a moderate amount of action/platforming elements. I could probably play something like Disgaea or Persona like that, but that's it.
And before you ask, yes, I've tried it. I played the witcher 2 streamed over a 40/40 Mbps fiber optical connection. There was still noticable input lag.

Battlefield 3 came with input lag all on its own for PS3, and I put up with that (enjoyed the game a lot, really) for quite a while before I finally decided I'll stick to lag-free Killzone/Modern Warfare 3 instead. So I think I'll be prepared and ok with what streaming can do, even for FPS/action games.
Haha, yes, I've noticed him on there before. He came back here for a bit, I wonder what happened?
