Sony PS4 review

[Tactical]

To be fair (unbiased PC gamer here), fps drops don't mean it doesn't have spare power, it just means devs haven't figured out how to effectively optimize software for the new hardware and code.

That hair at 00:47 kind of ruins the shot for the ps4

Clear and very direct. The kind of reviews that I like.

I'm so sick of fanboys. As an owner of both a 360 and PS3, and based off of what I've seen, PlayStation is still the better single player console while Xbox is still the better multiplayer console.

People are hilarious

"I cannot believe we have to pay for online now."

-Goes out and spends $20 at Burger King, or over $60 on a Pair of shoes or jeans when PS+ ranges from $9.99, 19.99, and 49.99.

There is a LOT of open-ended subjective statements that sounds like you have got your heads around this entire thing. You obviously do not. Games do not lag beause of the console, it's the developers fault, and you try to make it sound like you are worried that the power of the hardware isnt enough. I'm not impressed.

I watched a lot of the ps4 reviews and this so far is the best.

Thanks for the review. I have been scrolling through reviews not actually seeing a full review in overall aspects. You sir have earned yourself a sub.

How do ppl forget xbox 1 is actually a gaming console that can do other things. Granted ps4 has a slight graphics advantage but not enough to sway my decision or change my conviction that said advantage however slight is only temporary.

[KingJagan]

Wow, are you console games really happy about the next "gen." Getting features that PC have been enjoying for a decade.

[yanipheonu]

Gotta say, it at least wins in form factor. It's impressive when my old PS3 is actually BIGGER than the PS4. Plus I'm really impressed how much stuff you get day one, lots of free games, free trials, actual free $10 credit, and this is even better when you add all the stuff from Plus.

This console has a lot of potential. In a year it will be MUCH improved. They seriously failed with no media playback at launch. That should have stayed. They want this to be an entertainment system and the center of the living room like PS3, so it should have that. The lack of the most recent wi-fi will rarely affect anyone for the first couple years but an updated version (like the slim models) that will come later on needs to have it. The games are ok but great ones are coming in 2014 so its no big deal. This has more of an ability to expand than an Xbox One so that is great.

I only had my PS3 for a year when the PS4 came out...😔

David Pierce is the reason i subscribed. Great Review.

I am going to get a Xbox one but i do like to see the cool features that sony puts into their systems the Xbox one and ps4 are both good in their own ways but people are so close minded to the fact that it is personal preference not "ps4 has better graphics therefore the Xbox one is going to suck" but  the fact is they are both amazing consoles that should both be respected 

[THEmickTHEgun]

This was one of the best reviews I've seen on the PS4. Great job!

[shuttingupexplode]

I think Polygon did a better job of reviewing it however there's something about The Verge that just keeps me coming back to watch.

[malamri]

"battlefield 4 dont feel diferent from the previous console", are you serious? jump from 600 to 900p, jump from 30 to 60fps, jump from 24 to 64 players and it still feels the same? now i know how ignorant the reviewers are in this channel.

[mmagymratreviews]

Great review! I wish everyone would stop comparing the two consoles. I see the need to when deciding which one to buy, but I would be nice to hear a review that doesn't compare the flaws or even the things xbox one ( should do) better to the ps4

[calenpope]

Great review, however, it's so high-def that at 0:46, the pubic hair stuck in the USB crevice is clearly visible.  Maybe blur that out or something :)
