Playstation 4 Revealed!






PS4 with controller (DualShock 4)








Yes guys! Its finally here! The most anticipated gaming console of the generation! Playstation 4! On Monday night Sony revealed the long awaited PS4 at a press conference (E3) and showed some of its most notable game titles. The announcement was made the same day when the Xbox One announcement was made. Sony ended the press conference after revealing that the price for pre-ordering the Playstation 4 will be 399$. The Playstation 4 is now available for pre-order on Amazon. The price of the PS4 is 100$ less than the price announced for Xbox One. This may be a reason the PS4 will have better sales than Xbox One. Company President Andrew House told the audience that the PS4 will be able to play second hand games on the system (which Xbox doesn't). Sony also announced that they have teamed up with Gaikai to develop a cloud based gaming system that will allow users to play PS3 games streamed over the internet on their Playstation 4s. This feature won't be available when the PS4 launches but is planned for 2014. According to Jack Tretton, over 140 games are in development for the PS4 and there will be at least 100 games released in PS4's first year. Some of the confirmed PS4 games are - Killzone: Shadow Fall, Battlefield 4, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Infamous: Second Son, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. There are 66 confirmed games for the PS4 in total. I don't know about India but the PS4 is releasing in mid November in the U.S.A.
The Playstation 4 is well designed and creatively crafted. It has a simple yet modern design - slim, light and high-style. The body of the PS4 has been divided into four sections as if four blocks have been stacked together as a single piece. The body will have a disc slot, some buttons, power indicator and a vent in the slim space between the sections at the back. The internal design of the PS4 is as awesome as the body.
