The specs look great, as does the controller and interface. All that's left is... does it have the games to back it up?

#3 Posted by Enigma777 (5970 posts) - 3 months, 4 hours ago

Yup. So in

#4 Edited by Blu3V3nom07 (1445 posts) - 3 months, 4 hours ago

Nah, dawg. I'ma get a Xbox ∞, but PS4 sure seems neat. I have PS3.

#5 Edited by DelroyLindo (382 posts) - 3 months, 4 hours ago

looks good. if microsoft continue to make you pay for xbox live next gen i may jump ship.

I was sold once they announced the new Infamous game. I really liked what I was hearing and I just needed an exclusive title to seal the deal, and that was it. I probably won't get one this year, though. Unless it's an insanely unexpected price. Like, Wii U price. But I highly doubt that.

#7 Posted by FancySoapsMan (5413 posts) - 3 months, 3 hours ago

probably

#8 Posted by BigBoss1911 (2244 posts) - 3 months, 3 hours ago

Yep.

#9 Posted by Morbid_Coffee (935 posts) - 3 months, 3 hours ago

PS4 is being made by smart people and thats good but I still want to see more games before jumping the gun.

#10 Posted by triple07 (1046 posts) - 3 months, 3 hours ago

I'll probably wait to see what Microsoft shows but so far Sony really wowed me. Maybe I'll go PS3 first this time. (Who am I kidding I'll end up with every console)

#11 Posted by ozzdog12 (815 posts) - 3 months, 3 hours ago

I mean I'm sure 2-3 years from now, I'll own both. Console looks impressive i'll say that much. Still got at LEAST 9 months to impress me further. I've never purchased a console at launch(except the Vita), so unless I'm absolutely finished with my PS3 and 360 by the time they role out(which I doubt, I mean GTA5 comes out in Sept...), I doubt I'll be a day 1 purchaser of either.

I find it interesting, but I'm not really excited yet. But I think that's all this was supposed to do was garner interest. E3 will probably be a blowout for them and for Microsoft.

#13 Edited by RobotHamster (3948 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Yup I knew I was going to be, maybe not for the first year or so but I'm in.

#14 Posted by Demoskinos (8968 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago
#15 Posted by Homer39 (136 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I'm in.

#16 Posted by StrainedEyes (864 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Not yet. A lot of what was shown will also be on the new Xbox. I really like inFamous, but that's not enough just yet.

#17 Edited by RandomInternetUser (6779 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I was expecting not to be in until a price drop, but I am very in now.

#18 Edited by Barrock (3184 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

If it were for sale right now I'd buy one.

#19 Posted by awesomeusername (3152 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

FUCK YES. NEW INFAMOUS GAME YO

#20 Posted by mellotronrules (983 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

not till 2014- but it does show a real focus on games. i'm interested to see how microsoft responds.

#21 Posted by WickedFather (1442 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I'm in! Even though the power consumption will be five hairdryers and 2 kettles and an incubator.

#22 Posted by DaMisterChief (657 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

NO

#23 Posted by Freelancer52 (45 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Yup

#24 Posted by awesomeusername (3152 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago
#25 Posted by peritus (539 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Probably in.

#26 Posted by FluxWaveZ (17854 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I've always been in.

#27 Posted by RazielCuts (1711 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Actually made me waaay more interested in getting a Vita as its pretty much future proofed for a good while now right?

#28 Posted by BestUsernameEver (4645 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

If it has a bunch of great games by 2015, sure. Right now their cool features like vita remote play and share button are uncertain to be useful or fully implemented by Sony. I say that because Sony said vita remote play for all ps4 games is a "long term goal."

#29 Posted by SMTDante89 (2163 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Yup, pretty much sold on it now.

Online
#30 Posted by RollingZeppelin (1364 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Meh, the games didn't make me feel like I need to play them. I might get it once the inevitable price drop hits. I'll stick to PC until then.

#31 Posted by awesomeusername (3152 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

@toowalrus said:does it have the games to back it up?

inFAMOUS: Second Son. That is all.

#32 Edited by FunkasaurasRex (475 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

It sounds like they focused in on a lot of their failures with the PS3 during the presentation and that's a super good sign to me. I'm definitely interested and, given my current disinterest in the Xbox, there's a good chance that if I do make an early purchase of a next gen console, it'll be the PS4.

#33 Posted by Wraxend (432 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Already looking if I can pre-order, so yeah I'm in.

#34 Posted by TooWalrus (11803 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

@awesomeusername: When this topic was created, the only game shown was Knack. Second Son looks cool- I actually haven't played Infamous, I've got a copy here but I've never... I should play that.

#35 Posted by MistaSparkle (2071 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I was so sure I was out, but that presentation was incredible. Really curious to see how Microsoft reacts to all this.

My favorite bits were seeing that Sony hasn't forgotten about cartoon-y, imaginative games, namely Knack (even though it was pretty much a tech demo); Deep Down and Watch_Dogs were really exciting to see, and the download while playing thing sounds awesome.

#36 Posted by TheSouthernDandy (2890 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Unless MS really brings it...this is it you guys, I finally switch sides.

#37 Edited by DonPixel (2007 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I like SONY, i like what they showed.. so yes.

#38 Posted by 49th (1785 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Yes, I will buy a PS4 at some point unless something is terribly wrong with the system which seems unlikely.

#39 Posted by BoFooQ (523 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

YES, was a sony fan going in, but sony did lots of the stuff I wanted to see and hear today. Still need to hear if online is still free, and we'll have to see what kind of things microsoft brings to the table. Even blizzard was a good thing, Maybe diablo 3 isn;t the biggest sales point, it should be a game that is there day 1 and you hope the they keep the partnership going forward.

#40 Posted by SuperWristBands (2029 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

No. I can't be. Not without seeing what Microsoft has and more information on pricing and subscriptions. I am in favour of Sony and apprehensive of Microsoft thanks to this generation though.

I am impressed with what I saw though. Feature wise. Most of the games that impressed me are probably going to be multiplatform so games that were shown are almost meaningless in a decision for me.

#41 Edited by mpgeist (453 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Waiting to see a price and what Microsoft has. Also, I don't typically jump into a console in the first year.

#42 Edited by DrFlapjack (202 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Unless MS really brings it...this is it you guys, I finally switch sides.

Same here! I've stayed with the Xbox because I loved Halo so much, but I've had enough of shooters and Playstation Plus has seemed more appealing than paying for XBL as this generation has come to an end. I liked the presentation and can't wait to see what Microsoft responds with.

#43 Posted by bigsmoke77 (755 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

It is going to take a lot for me to stay on the Microsoft train but I will most likely not be an early adopter of either console due to price and because i just built a decent gaming PC.

#44 Edited by Ghost_Cat (1021 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

The whole show was solid. Straight to the point, hardware overview, games, and more games. Also really enjoyed the Drive Club dude.

#45 Posted by JZ (1026 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

The ps4 is made by the guy that made marble madness. You win sony.

#46 Edited by Colourful_Hippie (2611 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

I'll probably pick it up when the first price drop hits. I have plenty of miles to go still with my PC so I can wait. Looks cool though. The big take away for me is finally seeing consoles no longer drag PC's down for a while again and good on Sony for going X86.

#47 Posted by TheHT (8089 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

Yeah most likely. We'll see what Microsoft can bring to the table.

#48 Posted by RioStarwind (269 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

For their first showing they certainly sold me on buying one. Doesn't take that much to make me buy a console after all I bought a Wii U. But they showed me what I wanted to see. All it takes is a few games that tell me I should buy this and I'll do it. Plus it didn't hurt that they all looked really good. Now it's just up to Microsoft to sell me on something new since that's the only way I'll pick up the next Xbox.

#49 Posted by Seppli (7674 posts) - 3 months, 2 hours ago

This should be a poll. And I am in.
