IGN News - PlayStation 4 Operating Temperature Revealed

Sony's PlayStation 4 has been passed by the FCC, meaning the retail version of the console is already deemed viable for sale to the American public.

It does...When you get your Xbox One and you have a membership already all you have to do is transfer it..MS said that at E3..so your achievement score will be there as well as your licensing

[DudeWazap]

They is true you can play in what ever device you want. I didn't say you couldn't play on consoles. In fact I'm going to get both consoles for their exclusives and play all the other games on PC. Nothing wrong with that at all.

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. It is generally accepted as the first day of the Christmas Shopping Season. Many stores have big sales that day. Any mall or store will be very crowded.

[juggernautreptiles]

I'm loving it there doing a great job on building the suspense to the reales date

[DJSwizz]

yeah there will trust me.My cousin works at best buy and he said they will stock up after black friday

Except these servers are dedicated to Xbone Live as a whole. First party games will use these servers and even 3rd party can use them if they pay. This makes the online better in many ways. I think there's a rumor that gaikai has ~30, 000 and that most of them are for the PS1-2 game streaming which is relatively weak considering that the 360 had the same amount albeit didn't use much of them for multiplayer (they used them for the UI alone).

We will find out when it's realised probably at Games-Com, like they said they treat it as equal as E3. If that's true then it'd be the perfect time to announce it, and I have a feeling it'll be in October. Since they seem to be dedicated to beat MS in every area this time round no matter what it is.

There are pictures if you're interested. If you search for them you'd find them on twitter or articles about the specs. Maybe articles on the cooling systems. Can't really remember.

I agree that it's good to alternate. My friends wanted me to get a 360 this past gen to play online with them. They tried to convince me to buy one, but I just went to their house some weekends to play theirs; just like some weekends they came to my house to play my PS3. If I was going to buy an Xbox for myself, I was going to own both systems. I admit I used regardless wrong. I used regardless to say that I wanted to get a PS4 kind of like it was a sequel in a series of movies.

[Triestella_Plays]

i actually hope they take a little more time with the release of ps4, just to make sure all those technic probs or glitches/bugs are out of the way and gives us more time enjoying the ps4 then raging on how much it freezes and ect.

[pedrostokoe]

that looked really nice too i think these exclusives are goona look incredible since they've got all this extra hardware and power to use but 3rd party will just look the same

Amazon started taking pre orders again! I just pre ordered the Watch Dogs Bundle (Exclusive storyline value added to Ps4 copy) get it while you can! It's free to join and pre order btw.

[aNotoriousPhD]

Amazon announced that they were selling 2500(peak rate) ps4's per minute for the first few weeks I believe. That may have flucuated but regardless it probably didn't dip below 1000. At minimum 1000*60=60000, 60000*24=1440000, 1440000*10= 14, 440, 000.

[snjoseshrk]

No one knows the specific date of launch but I can almost guarantee it will be on the weekend before thanksgiving. That way companies will have their product ready for Black Friday and of course, Christmas.

[xOzymandias]

preordered bf4 bundle from amazon...2 day shipping cant wait.

[Zombanic]

Pretty much true, unless it's the exclusives or the exclusive content on the games, but mostly just the exclusives.

[DexusDisaster]

60FPS is noticeably smoother and makes the gameplay just as smooth.
If that doesn't convince you then you should know that console games never keep a constant framrate so when they say 30FPS they mean 20-30 which is very choppy. But when 60FPS takes slight dips 50-60 or even 40-60 the game is still running very smoothly and you don't notice a thing. This affects gameplay/graphics/atmosphere among other things.
The sad thing is they locked the FPS to make the console smaller (I'm guessing).

[kevincurtis]

I can't wait to see them announce it comes out next year. That would be the greatest thing ever.

[NomadOverNormal]

I play consoles not for graphical specs. I play consoles for the environment it puts me in. More people play, more people to meet. It's easy to talk with my friends, manage them and what they're doing. Hold competitive scores, and the feeling that I get for getting that platinum trophy is unlike anything your custom built monster can produce. My Money. My choice. Respect that. If you can't we don't want you in our business.

The lightbar is designed to be used with the PlayStation camera and is used for motion control purposes in games. However, since the console doesn’t come with a PlayStation camera, some gamers will find the lightbar to be useless, but they won’t be able to disable it. This means that the DualShock 4 controller will use up battery life for features that the gamer will never play around with. Yes it tells you what player you are big deal. But as for it showing low hp its up to the game companies
