Wii U.

Thats a touchscreen. The one on the ps4 is like what you get on a laptop.

No one knows how the move would work built in as its not released yet.

Also 4K is a pipe dream. When they can get 1080p games as standard then it's time to talk. Even now they can't get 720p native games.

4k on a 70 quid graphics card is completely possible

at one frame per minute or so

Strong rumours it will use Gaikai cloud gaming for backwards compatibility.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #167 on:** February 16, 2013, 06:54:23 am »

Smiff....the cards are supposed to be based on te 7000 series. I don't think there 70 quid. Besides if you had a 70 quid graphics card in a pc and the same in a console, the console would outperform it because its in a fixed design. Let's see what kind of visuals we can expect in this new generation.

Anyone wanna predict launch titles?

Mine: Killzone 4 and The Last Guardian.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #169 on:** February 16, 2013, 07:37:09 am »

Yeah KZ4 is a good shout. I also think a racing game from Evolution studios, bizzare creations have teamed up with them so that has me excited. Maybe something from media molecule too.

The person who posted the second controller picture has had this to say about it:

Quote

The triggers are much more similar to the Xbox 360 'springy' triggers. That's a microphone (similar to VITA, Wii U) and that is also a headset port. Touch screen is resistive display, single touch, used for battery levels, friend lists, mini u.i blah blah. Taken a while ago, only had access to it via someone else.

Interesting... everywhere else seemed to be running with the rumour of the 'screen' being a touchpad with no display, and being 2-point multitouch rather than single touch. Well, either way, the 20th is going to be interesting.

Also (from GAF):

SElect. Start and PS Button all look wank but otherwise it's nice but I didn't think it was an actual screen? Just a touch pad like on back of VITA?

Quiet a downgrade from a touchscreen, though. I mean something that will become standard. Like the SNES controller came with shoulder buttons,; the N64 controller came with a analogue stick, and so on and so on. Both staple features on any controller for any system since. That mock up above does look slick, though, I'll give it that.

Friday: PS1
Saturday: PS2
Today: PSP
Monday: PS3
Tuesday: Vita

So...I'm giving my opinion on it. Which is to say it looks like shit.

The "if that's what it is" was in reference to what I presume is supposed to be a touch screen.

I'd quite fancy one if I didn't have to pay through the nose for it. You got the AC and Uncharted games? Thought they looked pretty good myself. Could brighten up the train rides to work.

I got uncharted, its free on ps plus now too. Got wipeout, got rayman, and a bunch of old ps1 classics which play exceptionally well to be honest. It still needs more titles though. MK is really good too which is/was free on ps plus again. Nothing wrong with the hardware and its design, its a very powerful little machine, there's just once again a lack of software. For me its caught in between your mobile devices and your home consoles. Its too good to just play games which appear on your iphones and samsungs and tablets but the publishers aren't investing all there energy into it like they would a home console title for 360 or ps3 or future consoles. Your always gonna get your spin offs, cod, AC etc but rarely a competitive alternative from them sort of franchises. Same story as psp really. Now and then you'll get a cracking game, rayman for example, even wipeout is quality but there should be more given the quality of the handheld.

With the rumours of sony streaming ps3 games to the ps4 theoretically you should be able to play them on the vita as well? That would be impressive if it was possible.

If it uses Gaikai then there should be no technical reason why it couldn't be done - even phones can stream stuff like Onlive, and the Vita is currently more powerful than phones, so it'll purely be whether Sony wants to enable it or not.

Po The Panda · « **Reply #194 on:** February 17, 2013, 10:50:25 pm »

Custom firmware will probably save the vita when it's released. Psp's still sell a good amount today the amount of customization with Rom's theme's Iso's e.t.c you can do is great.

Got my PS3 6 years ago, bloody hell that's an age. Remember playing it on a bedroom 14" CRT tv, got a Bravia HD tv soon after and the difference made my jaw drop.

don't be expecting the same level of jaw droppery from the ps4, it won't be the same going to 1080p from 720 as it was from standard def

Yep, that goes without saying. I'd still be running the thing on a HDTV anyway. A similar jump would be to 4K perhaps, but the masses aren't going to invest in 4K just yet, and neither are Sony and MS- both for the same reasons probably.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #199 on:** February 18, 2013, 06:44:54 am »

I still remember getting my ps3 back then, Motorstorm and Resistance. Decent, put some hours into resistance online, had the best party setup I've seen on ps3. Motorstorm series started off well but went downhill.
