    Hey now, we haven't seen the console itself yet.

    I haven't fully grasped the social sharing stuff.

    Social sharing is a good thing, we all love social sharing of our games. But the stuff they built in doesn't seem like what I want, it just seems like "Hey, we need some social stuff, that'll do."

    What is this I don't even.

    I don't understand it at all. I have no desire to watch my friends play games. I barely have enough time to play games myself.

    All I want out of PS4 is an operating system that allows for multiple profiles to be logged in at once. An operating system with a party chat feature. An operating system that doesn't lag up my entire system when I press the PS button. That's all I want. Everything else is gravy.

    Also, decent download speeds.


    And at least two butts, a shoulder and a minimum of 5 and a half nipples.

    Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
  • LucascraftLucascraft Registered User regular
    Well... two butts is a given. This is 2013. Every console should have two butts.

  • HevachHevach Registered User regular
    Why should they? I mean, modern dual channel butt technology is hardly new, PCs have had them for years.

  • DarkewolfeDarkewolfe Registered User regular
    With Sony, they won't be butts. They'll be Buttz, and they'll have to add rumble later.

    What is this I don't even.
  • GyralGyral Registered User regular
    More of a boob man myself, so no butts is not a deal breaker.

    I hate to be the Debbie Downer, but if you think "Deep Down" was anything but pre-rendered video I have some swamp land to sell you. That UI bar in the bottom left doesn't mean dick. Infact, if anything it looks like heavily disguised QTE b.s.

    you don't get the second butt unless you buy the "elite" version

    hold your head high soldier, it ain't over yet
    that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat

    I'm all for them taking out the butts. That leaves room to add more penises.

    I find Tycho's quote funny. He didn't expect Sony to rip off the successful ideas of their competitors? That's like.. the definition of Sony :P

    How would butts - let alone two of them - work in tandem with the touch pad?

  • jothkijothki Registered User regular
    Now I can't help but wonder what exactly constitutes a butt. Is it just two cheeks and a hole? That doesn't seem right, presumably if you had some sort of buttcheek cancer and had to have one or both surgically removed, you'd still have a butt.

    As a PC Gamer, I find that presentation laughable (but then again, they mostly were always like that).
    Sony provided nothing that is mind blowing or really new. The graphics there at best matches The Witcher 2.
    Did they not already done something similar in the past? Whereas they had that kid who rides a dragon featuring "cutting edge graphics" and the game ended up being a lackluster QTE and boring gameplay?

    Frank Gibeau has said: "Yesterday Sony unveiled the PlayStation 4, signaling that after seven years, gamers will be treated to a massive leap in technology, creativity and fun."
    To me that reads: Sony took 7 years to create a PlayStation that is catching up to what the PC could've already done...and has already surpassed in leaps and bounds since...maybe PlayStation 5?
    As for that new PlayStation treating gamers to a massive leap in creativity and fun? Allow me to just call shenanigans right there. That statement is wrong on so many levels.

    All the PC power in the world doesn't mean anything when games are designed with console specs in mind.

    Tube, everyone knows that if you haven't played any early DOS-era computer games you don't even know what a video game is.
