I put down a deposit for the PS4 months ago and have had no concerns about making the right choice until now. I log onto the UK PSN store and there's literally no mention of PS4, no videos hyping it up or anything. That by itself is meaningless, but it reinforces my perception of the UK PSN Store as am afterthought to SCEE - something they just really don't take seriously enough or understand the importance of. I've downloaded loads of apps on my X360, but on the PS3 there are very few.

Meanwhile I read on Giantbomb about the US PS4 giveaway including 30 days free of music etc. and again, no mention on the UK PlayStation blog about such things. One of my frustrations over the course of owning a PS3 (I also own an Xbox 360) was the lack of content and my concern is that will be repeated over the lifecycle of the PS4. I don't expect free stuff per se, but if another region is getting that free stuff I expect likewise or at least to be thrown a bone of some kind.

Given that Sony are now charging gamers to play online, SCEE really need to step up their game in my opinion and start offering much more in terms of content and a better online experience.

@extomar: I want to stream games from my console to Twitch. My computer doesn't have a capture card hence the Hauppauge HD PVR.

Thanks for the suggestions. If Hauppauge Capture hooks into Twitch directly, that would be perfect. Otherwise I'll give OBS Project a try.

Like the title says :) I've tried a few things in the past but not recently and am determined to get back into streaming games. Obviously, the new consoles will have Twitch support built in but I have an Xbox 360, PS3 and a library of old games I am not getting rid of anytime soon.

Suggestions for PC and Mac would be welcome.

Nice post.

Awesome stuff.

This. In fact, how about just remembering Ryan as opposed to analysing him. I'd recommend finding a more appropriate venue for a discussion on medical ailments.

I'm a little uneasy about this conversation. I'd have been happy to know that he simply didn't suffer, assuming that's the case here. Beyond that, just let him rest in peace.

Totally. Jeff and Ryan were like brothers.
