Well, that had some promise. I was surprised to see Blizzard and Bungie. Now to see what Microsoft has up its sleeve.
I just wanted to see hardware or to at least know if this thing supports physical media. We don't get even a mention!!!

That is incredibly annoying, I really wanted to see the console.
It probably has not been finalised.
Make it glossy Sony.
And give us colour options from launch too!
Announces PS4...fails to show actual PS4. Only Sony
So people basically flew out to see a controller and some rendered trailers. Nice.
I can't wait to see how sports games look on this thing. It's time for Madden to up their game, it's been lagging for years.

It does, they posted a spec sheet. 6X Blu-Ray Drive (probably the same from the PS3).

So we didn't see the actual PlayStation 4 console on stage at Sony's press event tonight, but that doesn't mean we can't know what's inside it. A press release reveals that the PS4's PC-like configuration will include an 8-core 64-bit x86 "Jaguar" CPU built by AMD, with a Radeon GPU comprised of 18 "compute units" capable of cranking out 1.84 TFLOPS to process graphics and more. Its Blu-ray drive -- yes, it will still have one of those -- spins at a brisk 6X (8X for DVDs) and as mentioned on stage, it packs 8GB of unified GDDR5 RAM capable of 176GB/sec of bandwidth. 802.11n WiFi, USB 3.0, Bluetooth 2.1, HDMI, optical out and even a legacy analog AV out make up the inputs and outputs, although the potential amounts of storage are still unspecified.
Honestly, I didn't see anything amazing, or next gen, graphics-wise from the trailers/gameplay they showed. It didn't look like anything different from what the PS3 can handle.That gameplay from the next Killzone game left me very disappointed, not so much in the style of the game which was meh and even trying to copy characters shapes from AC, but did you guys/gals see the helicopter rope, looked like crap. I expected that from my PS3 not from their next console.
The controller share button for me is useless. Was not impressed by camera neither.
I will have to see how Sony is going to be able to handle their network, ATM the store newest version is actually as slow as the day it came out even after revamped, maybe even longer.
Did any of you get the free $10 in PSN? I know I didn't
The current PSN store is utter crap. It's the slowest, most useless interface I've seen in years. Also, the old store was much easier/faster to navigate than the new Pinterest-or-whatever-inspired design.

FIFA is always the game that has the newest thing (mechanics, AI, graphics, etc). You should change sports or do like me and get both
I play NBA 2K as well. I just mentioned madden because its been dull for years.

The controller is butt-ugly, and the share button is ridiculous.
Well, no big surprises here:
- The PS4 exists (duh)
- The controller looks like the leaked photos (surprise!)
- People are working on games for it (no way, really?)
- Graphics look better than current gen (who would have thought?)
- It's integrating social aspects (didn't see that coming!)
So, uh, yeah. No info on physical media, release window, online services, what it even looks like (irrelevant for the gaming experience, but still), DRM, etc.
At least the controller is not a dealbreaker for me as of now. We'll see what they do with the Move light and touch pad, but it's still an old-fashioned video game controller at heart, so that works for me!

Mid December would cut it awfully close to Xmas. I'm thinking early/mid Nov.Still has a BD drive, so physical is still there. Release window is Holiday 2013 - take a guess on mid December.
