well it finally happened Sony announced the next gen video game console the PS4 it was a big announcement and we learned a little about what is to come when the console launches this fall here is my take on it:
Where is the console? While i am very happy that we now know that there will be another console this yea i was disappointed that the actual console was not shown. and while there is good reason for this according to sony the final version of the console is not set in stone. it would have been a good idea what to expect.
Beginning lineup looks good but Nothing mind blowing yet! let me say the lineup looks good Games like Watch dogs and Diablo 3 are okay but where are the exclusive games that make us excited for the console. While Killzone Shadow fall and Infamous second son look great where is the games that we have to buy the console for where is the playstation version of Halo or Gears of war.
Finally one BIG question answered but that leaves a few left. Well after the announcement it was revealed that the PS4 will not block used games. This is good news both for the gamers and the industry yet that leaves a few questions left like What about always on internet connection or what about the next Xbox
Share Share away. last night one of the really neat things i saw was how social interaction was going to take place, before it would take alot of extra equipment to record gameplay footage to share over facebook, or twitter now there is a button on the controller that does it for you which is awesome and great. I also think that this has some major possibilities for gaming companies especially if you can add text to the footage but i think this is only the begining and that as the system is upgraded this will be too
Sorry move is a fad. Listen i will continue to blieve this but move is still klunky and i dont like it i think it is great for exercise but not for shooters or adventure games and until it is able to translate better to games i like to play i wont. I think it is a good idea to intergrate it with the new console but until they get it right they need to keep the old fashioned controller like they have.
a few final things let me say that i am not a big fan of the touchscreen dual shock 4 controller yet but i am going to have an open mind, i dont like all the apps for the sony yet either but i think that it has possibilities, but to me i think tablets intergration is nice but i think that xbox will do it better and finally remote play i am not a big fan of.
Well in the end i think this was a good start to a very interesting gaming season now the Xbox needs to come out and wow us or PS4 will again be the top dog in gaming
