E3 2013

You'll still need to be subscribed to them. Just the app will be installed by default presumably.

Remeber trying to watch Netflix on the 360 and realised I had to be a gold member to do so:/

Where the damn discs go?

That's what I was thinking :hmm: unless the matte side opens up.

 

[Makavelian]

God, please no.
The obvious place would be a slide in disk tray below the ps4 sign, in between the ps4 sandwich, but that looks like it would be very awkward.

 

[Jonno394]

i wager it'll be like the ps3 original models with an auto feed slot

I'm pissed Sony are charging for online.

However, £350 is tempting and although I don't have it, PS Plus has shown to be excellent value (they give out a shit ton of free games).

No chance I'll buy the Xbox - it's £429. The fuck? Despite being almost £100 more expensive, it is also the more weaker console.

PS4 it is then I guess.

Yeah, thats what I meant. "Slot" not "tray"

 

[Viperized]

Oh yes. How could I forget about the draconian policies enforced by the new Xbox.

Online checks, no used games, no borrowing. Wow.

 

[Makavelian]

Being spyed on by the Government.

Being spyed on by the Government.

You raise an interesting point.

Microsoft were NSA's first corporate partner for the PRISM program.

Kinect is mandatory for all Xbox users and games won't function without it.

Kinect = facial and speech recognition.

Kinect is always on. Always watching you.

:O

You place the disk on the console, and then it's absorbed into the system. That's how high tech the PS4 is!

 

[Lörd TH]

Well everyone looks a bit stupid now, developers are gonna be all over this! We already know EA and Ubisoft will charge for pre-owned games.

Sony has confirmed that the digital rights management of PlayStation 4 software will be up to third-party publishers. Speaking on GTTV, Sony's Jack Tretton stated, "The DRM decision for third-party games will be up to publishers."

 

[Jonno394]

Hmm, not enforced means there's chances some publishers wont bother and at least sony first party titles probably wont have anything to do with it then.

edit - scratch that, just sounds like a continuation of online passes, i'm fine with that

Publishers of PS4 games, then, can do what's already done on existing PlayStation software: Limit or lock content behind online passes or redemption codes (or opt out of restrictions altogether), which differs from Microsoft's limited licensing of Xbox One software.

That PS4 "Sharing" video is too funny. I also liked how Sony would have a pop at Microsoft whenever they got the chance in E3 :lol:

Not sure if I'll get this year, but PS4 it is for me.

 

[Lörd TH]

Developers will charge, they don't care about you! EA and Ubisoft will definitely do it anyway.

BTW, you can clearly see from this image where the disk goes, in case anyone is still curious:

 

[IronCity]

i think that slot on top of the controller. It sits out like a viewmaster

Nobody's curious now. Stop boring us Ali, you are boring us Ali!























Nice find thx:thumbsup:
I can imagine many a games getting battered up when fumbling about to put it in the slot.

 

[Ali]

Nobody's curious now. Stop boring us Ali, you are boring us Ali!

:situation:

Nice find thx:thumbsup:

 

[Lörd TH]

I wouldn't want to be changing a disk when drunk!

 

[Makavelian]

Gonna be kneeling down to eye level with the slot to put them in cleanly:/
Just a relief it's not like the new PS3 that slides open.

Developers might care about you.

Publishers certainly don't. They love squeezing every ounce of $$$ from ya.
