Man this is serious next-gen
And next-gen is seriously great. It goes without saying-but I'll say it anyway-that the graphics and performance on this sucker are badass. You've been seeing trailers and gameplay footage of this stuff for nigh on two years
Gorgeous
Compact Design
Amazing Controller
Deep Social Integration

The PS4 is definitely a great gaming machine in the tradition of the PS3 before it
But its new functionality comes off as a little half-baked. ThATT#39
S totally understandable for a launch console
But that doesn't make it any less disappointing. Sharing vi
Abstract: Sony and Microsoft have finally released their first video-game consoles in seven years. Sony Corp's new $399 PlayStation 4 console sold 1 million units in the first 24 hours after its November 15 release in the United States and Canada. I expect a simila...

Abstract: If the PlayStation 4 is any indication of the quality of the next generation of gaming, then it was worth the wait after all. I'm writing this review seven years to the day after Sony brought the PlayStation 3 to the United States, a console I swore I wou...

Software Lacking Features, Hardware Underutilized
Like any launch console, the PS4 isn't perfect. The software is lacking some key functionality, the DualShock 4's more distinctive features are underutilized, and remote play is still rough around the edges. But in spite of these issues, the PS4 is an exc...

Not yet. I mean, if youre some sort of Sony diehard who can never possibly be swayed to the Microsoft side, then sure. The PS4 is a good console. There is nothing aggressively wrong with it as to scare away or displease a devoted fanboy. You will like it...
So, it's two category wins each for Microsoft and Sony, with four draws.The Xbox has recently grown into being the multimedia hub that Microsoft always promised, ideal for those who want to switch easily between games, media streaming, Skype, live TV and...
Simply based on the number of category wins, the Xbox One is rivalling or even beating the PS4. It has recently grown into being the multimedia hub that Microsoft always promised, ideal for those who want to switch quickly between, or multitask, all the d...
Small and easy to hide out of the way, DualShock 4 controller has USB communication, Easy to swap out the internal hard drive, Capable of HDR gaming
Not the prettiest machine on the market, No optical digital audio output, A mere 500GB HDD, No 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player
There's little doubt that when viewed on its own terms, with little comparison to rivals or the PS4 Pro, this PlayStation 4 is an excellent games console. It's not pretty but it is capable. And considering Sony currently reigns supreme as the king of cons...
It's a tough choice as the PS4 and Switch are very different, and the decision will depend on your personal preferences: mobile vs home, graphics vs portability, and most importantly, the kinds of games you play.The Switch is slightly more expensive than...
The system is cleanly designed, functional and a downright joy to putter around its interface. Everything is speedy and responsive right from minute one, and the interface is full of clever design choices that speed things up. Games begin to install the s
Again, we could drill home the point about there not being enough console-exclusive games, but there are larger problems to address here. Sony has made it clear that it's branch out or die. To add a new feature every six months or pack it up and call it q
We'll say it again: the PlayStation 4 is a great piece of hardware. It's fast, nicely built and has a streamlined philosophy that puts games front and center. And let's not forget the price tag. It was the first console to be priced at £325 and continues...
No one likes to waste power and deal with insane energy bills, so it's reassuring to see Sony dialling back the PS4's power consumption. Though the original PS4's looks have become comfortingly familiar, the new smaller, more reserved design will make it
When sat next to the Xbox One S, which isn't massively more expensive than the 2016 PlayStation Slim, it's hard not to feel a little jealous of Microsoft's machine's 4K Blu-ray player. It's a luxury, for sure, but it's a future proofed one that may mean t
If you've been patiently waiting for the right time to grab a PS4 console, the hour has come. Affordable, newly-shrunken and with a stonking back catalogue of excellent games, the PS4 Slim is a great entry point into Sony's current gaming world.However, a...
