most PS3 don't have BC...PS2 are cheap but when you hook them up to 1080p TVs they look like shit

If PS4 doesn't have BC it's not a big deal because majority of the consumers have 1080p TV...so when that comes out and PS3 is cheap it makes sense just to pick a PS3 up...hence it upscales well for the TV sets that are designed for this current gen of consoles

the touchpad on the vita, is pretty neat.. the uncharted vita game uses it really great and such a wierd simple touch tech, because it looks like a normal plastic

i can picture the touchpad, where the sony logo is sitting can be use for mouse like inputs for browsing on the internet or strategy games

most likely the thing thats sitting behind that ps4 prototype controller is the development kit system

They should just change the shape of the controller and use the boomerang one they had as a prototype.

Looks like one of those shitty third party controllers you get as a birthday present, but never use.

PS4 to stream PS3 games instead of backwards compatibility?


Quote:
PlayStation 4 will stream PS3 games, reports WSJ

Last June, Sony purchased Gaikai, a company that can stream games — delivering them over the internet in real time from remote servers, by sending compressed video frames. Now, The Wall Street Journal reports what many have suspected for months: Sony will use the service to stream games to the next PlayStation game console, which the company is widely expected to reveal on February 20th. However, according to the publication, Sony won't necessarily use Gaikai to deliver brand-new games. Those will reportedly still be delivered on optical disc. Instead, the next PlayStation will allegedly bring existing PlayStation 3 games to the new system using the streaming technology

Previous generations of PlayStation have offered backward compatibility with games built for previous systems — you could put a PS1 disk in a PS2, for instance, and PS2 games worked in some PS3s — but the next PlayStation is expected to use AMD x86 chips, which wouldn't be compatible with the architecture used in previous systems. By hosting earlier generations of games on servers and streaming them instead, this could be a way to ensure some form of backwards compatibility despite the AMD chips.

It would have to be either that or include PS3 hardware, which would probably bring the price close to $1000.

Sucks because if you don't have REALLY good Internet, it won't be fun to play ps3 games

The controller looks horrible.. Maybe I'm old school, but I don't know why developers keep trying to make console controllers innovative by adding screens and what not.

The original design of the Dualshock 2 is my favourite controller of all time.

I like how they are being so vague on the specs...it looks like the rumors are correct (APU)
video capture is nice
8gb GDDR5 there's no way they can price this below $500 at launch

edit: wow your PSN friends are able to take over your game...nuts
