Online gaming at its core will be free still.



They will only charge for the extra shit. Something MS should be doing...

That's what i'm hoping for. I'm sure some will be upset about having to pay for cross game chat, but that won't cause nearly as much backlash as charging for online play.

It didn't say that anywhere in the article, it said premium features are going to be reserved for paying subscribers, that's not much of a change from now with cloud storage and auto-download of updates reserved for PS+. I expect the new cloud features and social integration features will be reserved for PS+ but online play will remain free.

I will still get the premium, but my nephews would have hate it. Glad if they keep online play free.
 
So which of you fine gentlemen, who will be watching the conference live, is going to make a spoiler-free thread similar to last year's E3 thread for poor sobs like me who will be stuck at work?

My gratitude would be eternal.

My plan for tomorrow;
1. Enjoy the reveal.
2. Not try to post any image/snippet on GAF, it will most likely be already posted 93244543 times.
3. Not touch any meme gifs.
4. Do not try to post on GAF like it's a free-for-all.
5. Ignore obvious troll posts from Wii/Xbox audience.

Yes, we all should do this!

I'm glad the triggers are the same as the DS3. I was afraid that some of the rumours that were going around were true and that they'd be Xbox 360 triggers.
 
TRIGGERS!

... Batman! Batman! WE'VE SEEN THE TRIGGERS!

Looks like the same terrible triggers we have now.

Really interested to see a final model. These shots make this prototype look like it's made of cheap rubber.

peoples hopes are to high lower them people

thats was e3 for

I think they're more or less justified. My predictions for tomorrow:
We won't get a price nor a definitive launch date. However, we'll finally get to see the controller and Project Orbis' design. Most of the talk will be about the philosophy of the consoles itself (i.e. features, specs, services like Gaikai, PSN+ etc.) over the next few years. We'll probably get tech demos and a few new announcements (partnerships, sequels and new IP).
This is based on past PS meetings (like the one from 2011). It won't be as loud and flashy as E3 was. At least that's what I'm rationally telling myself...

Some other tidbits: our source says that every PS4 will come with a PlayStation Eye; that a new spectating feature will let you watch other friends play games from your console's dashboard, even when you don't own the game they're playing; and that the console will support local network play via Vita.

Game streams on PSN, yes please!

You think so?

I was gonna do it early in the morning (when I get up for work) but I could do it later.

Thoughts?

As close to the event as possible. Hopefully there wil be a separate one for pre event streams and the doubtless giggling and hype so that your thread can start on the right foot.
In my dreams the thread goes live the second the event starts with a gifban in place until the event is over.

I'm putting my money on WSJ to leak everything before the show.

WSJ didn't leak anything they weren't asked to leak.


I can believe the control it with your phone thing. My TV and HTPC can both be controlled by my phone. It would be odd if you couldn't. Let people browse the store, launch films on netflix, send messages etc from their phone and tablets.

Isn't this the prototype controller from a new angle?

It would appear so yes. The triggers look flat rather than curve outwards.

That looks really bad. Hopefully the retail controller doesn't look so cheap.

Have you seen the other photos? Lots of very happy people in that thread.

That, like the share button, sounds like something that's too good to be true. It would be huge if it were real. I think that it'd do a lot to help certain games play. If you're curious about a game you could just check out one of your friend playing it to see if it clicks with you. And with cross game chat you could be chatting with them while you check out the game.

That's my plan, my man.

bah new consoles mark the reduction in quality of sports franchises, takes a good 2-3 years to get up to code again after EA/Konami release a quick butchered version of fifa/pes series

:[
 
New triggers definitely look concave instead of convex like the old triggers, yet are still nice and wide.

Just about exactly what I was hoping for, actually. I'm pleasantly surprised by all these design decisions.

I thought sony was going to redesign the whole controller. They really need to move on from the old Dual Shock. Change up the button design. The triangle, X, square and circle buttons don't look too fancy on that prototype controller.

This is their 4th console. Everything should be fresh and new.

Yeah, i'm a little doubtful about these features too, they sound fantastic and scream 'nextgen' though. We'll see...

As the biggest MS fan boy, mark, and ball washer on this planet, I have to say that I am excited about tomorrow.

I went from ps only from 1-2 to 360 last season and in the last few years pc only, i have to say i genuinely didnt think i was interested in next gen but this has me pumped!
