Heaps of top-notch games
Can play HDR games (if you have a compatible TV)
Finally adds media and app/streaming capabilities absent at launch
Holds masses of future potential
No one likes to waste power and deal with insane energy bills
So it's reassuring to see Sony dialling back the PS4's power consumption. Though the original PS4's looks have become comfortingly familiar
The new smaller
More reserved design will make it
The system is cleanly designed
Functional and a downright joy to putter around its interface. Everything is speedy and responsive right from minute one
And the interface is full of clever design choices that speed things up. Games begin to install the s

The PS4 is capable of stunning visuals and hugely expansive gamesplaying experiences. Its sharing and social experiences add intuitive ways to make you feel a part of a
The PlayStation 4 is packed with impressive next-gen features. You can play PS4 games on your PlayStation Vita using the magic of Remote Play
Which is really useful if someone is using the TV. The console is constantly buffering the last 15 minutes of gameplay
So if you do something amazing
It’s easy to upload a clip of it online. While the camera is £50 extra

The editors didn't like
Media streaming can be fussy
500GB storage insufficient
Store download prices often absurdly high
No 4K video
PS4 Slim and Pro put question mark over this original console
When sat next to the Xbox One S
Which isn't massively more expensive than the 2016 PlayStation Slim
It's hard not to feel a little jealous of Microsoft's machine's 4K Blu-ray player. It's a luxury
For sure
But it's a future proofed one that may mean t
Again
We could drill home the point about there not being enough console-exclusive games
But there are larger problems to address here. Sony has made it clear that it's branch out or die. To add a new feature every six months or pack it up and call it q
Lack of exclusive games
Not backwards compatible
Media a bit light
No DLNA media streaming capabilities from launch. Or CD playback. Or MP3 support. Or 3D Bluray capabilities. Or backwards compatibility with PS3 games
Sony now charges for online gameplay through its PlayStation Plus service at £40 a year
But as that service offers superb
Recently-released games for free every month
Including Contrast and Resogun on the PlayStation 4
It’s worth paying for. The launch lineup of exclusive games isn’t that strong otherwise
It’s difficult to get excited about a new Killzone title
While the now-delayed Drivecl
Not totally silent when in the UI or playing a Bluray
Shiny parts of the casing are prone to scratches
Online multiplayer gaming is no longer free
Power use a bit on the high side when in the UI or watching a Bluray
Multimedi
No 3D Blu-ray
CD or DLNA support
Not as good as a dedicated disc player
The Xbox One has a slight edge in non-gaming entertainment features such as streaming content and media portal apps
Optical audio removed
No 4K Blu

Not the prettiest machine on the market
No optical digital audio output
A mere 500GB HDD
No 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player
Lack of A-list titles
Camera not included
Lack of Alist titles
No DLNA - yet
4K games still out of reach
Some features look a little underbaked right now
Lacks 4K Blu-ray player
PS4 Pro launch on the horizon
Many features still on the way
Like Gaikai streaming games
Baffling lack of DLNA and MP3 support
Most features require PSN connection
PS Plus required for non
F2P multiplayer
Controller analogue sticks still not durable enough
The PS4 Pro makes this a tough sell to dedicated fans
Abstract: Non sarà un colpo di fulmine, con la PlayStation 4, ma ci metti poco a prenderti una bella cotta. Il primo incontro necessariamente è con l'aspetto estetico: la nuova nata di casa Sony è un parallelepipedo asimmetrico, però addolcito dall'alternanza fra n...
Published: 2013-12-02, Author: Marco , review by: webnews.it
Eccellente dotazione tecnica, gamepad Duashock 4 migliorato rispetto al predecessore, installazioni e caricamenti veloci, interfaccia agile, semplice e veloce
Non retrocompatibile con titoli PS3, è obbligatorio installare i giochi, è assente il supporto al 4K nei videogiochi, poche esclusive al lancio
Interfaccia agile e bella. La chat di gruppo crossgame. La modalità sleep, per riprendere velocemente la partita da dove avevi interrotto senza lasciare accesa la console
Il multiplayer online, gratis su PS3, ora si paga. Scalda parecchio. Le esclusive del lancio non sono niente di spettacolare
Abstract: Quale acquistare al lancio? Abbiamo provato in anteprima le due console e le abbiamo messe a confronto, punto per punto. E no, non è stato un pareggioConfrontare due console che ancora non sono sul mercato è un'impresa non facile. Bene che vada, ti ritrov...
Abstract: Lo scorso weekend, come quasi ogni anno, ho compiuto il mio pellegrinaggio al Lucca Comics and Games che quest'anno aveva un ospite di eccezione: la PlayStation 4, padrona assoluta del padiglione dedicato ai videogiochi con uno stand enorme e unica attrat...

Abstract: O novo console da Sony tem data de lançamento para 19 de novembro aqui no Brasil e já podemos encontrar até alguns jogos de PS5 à venda na Amazon BR. Mas afinal o que mudou entre os 7 anos que separam o lançamento do PS4 e seu irmão mais novo. Vamos desco...
Abstract: PS4 e Xbox One S já estão no mercado a algum tempo. O primeiro chegou no final de 2013, e o seungdo em junho de 2016. Apesar da diferença de tempo, o hardware do Xbox One S é basicamente o mesmo do Xbox One. Logo, vale a comparação.Em termos de potência...

Abstract: Temos um Playstation 4 aqui no Canaltech há algum tempo, e tivemos a oportunidade de observar as qualidades - e, claro, os defeitos - que ele tem em detalhes. Assim como aconteceu com o Xbox One, comparações aqui são inevitáveis, já que ambos são concorre...
