PS4 unveiling Feb 20th

Watch; Sony will just announce that they're announcing an announcement at E3 about an announcement at TGS Autumn.

 

That and other sports games are what I am honestly most excited about (and jrpgs I suppose). Most everything else I can get on PC.

 

Ugh, don't even get me started on my back log. Mine includes Arkham Asylum if that tells you anything.

 

you guys need more fiber.

 

You guys are basically cheering for your backlogs to get bigger here.

 

I've pretty much resigned myself to such a reality. :/

 

If it makes you feel any better, there are still SNES games I've been meaning to play.

 

PS1 is as far back as I go.

 

What, you don't want to play Star Ocean, Secret of Mana 2, or Bahamut Lagoon? That can't be right!

 

Coming out in November.

 

I'd have to do emulation. 64 is the oldest system in my house.

 

Emulation is my preferred way to play games now, especially since my rig can destroy PCSX2. I need to finally play FF12 International Zodiac Job System...

Anyway, it looks like some nuggets are dropping. Anonymous has one; another is that the system will have 2 SKUs at $430 and $530.

 

That's how the Wii U did it.

When will preorders be available?

 

Haven't seen anything about that yet. And I want to see the game lineup before I plunk down $430.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Watch Dogs, MGS Ground Zeroes, and next week's Assassin's Creed announcement are all actually PS4 titles.

 

If MGS Ground Zero is apart of the lineup I'm going to be a very happy man.

 

I strongly suspect that it will be available for the PS4. Best guess? MGSGZ comes out for the PS3 and 360, but the PS4 is considered the lead platform and that version has the highest fidelity. Same thing with Watch Dogs, which was curiously announced for "all consoles" and has Q4 release date.

 

So what do we know, boys? Give me the deetz.

 

I'll check that out tonight

live right now

 

Quiet, Stugotz.

I'm watching the live stream here.

So far most of the leaks were right. x86 CPU, 8 GB RAM. The leaked controller is real.

 

They're demonstrating social sharing functions. You guys still doubt me when I say that mobile companies are targeting consoles as a path to the living room? This is all defensive.

 

I really want to see the design already!

 

I saw a rumor that two SKUs will be available on release: $430 and $530.

Not seen any proof though.

 

that puzzle game looks stupid

 

It looks infinitely better than GENERIC GUN GAME and GENERIC EXPLOSION GAME.

 

So, any thoughts? I wasn't very impressed by the presentation as a whole. Sony treats every event like they're speaking to investors. Your customers don't care about "synergy", Sony.

But the technology seems pretty good, if already a little dated. So far the games are just tech demos for improved effects, which is really to be expected, but still disappointing.

Unless Microsoft really blows me away, I'm probably going Sony/Nintendo again this generation.

 

The PS4 look is like the Dolphins logo... still havent seen it... kinda of lame we actually don't get to see what the PS4 looks like

 

Day 1 purchase.

 

I can think of a few reasons why.

1. The design isn't done.
2. Sony doesn't have any final unit mockups they're ready to show.
3. They may want to save the design for E3 headline fodder.

That's just off the top of my head.
