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

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

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
Ray player
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
DLNA, Tv- en video-appaanbod, 4K?, Autonomie controller
De PlayStation 4 is minder dan zijn voorganger een mediacentrisch apparaat, daar moet je wel rekening mee houden. Je koopt de PS4 dus nu om te gamen, en bijna enkel dat. Maar we durven er gif op nemen dat de PS4 van nu niet de PS4 van over een jaar is. ...
