I've had the PS4 for almost a year now... And I don't regret buying one AT ALL. It's truly a great platform that whoever is planning to get one I'm sure will enjoy.
Early in the generation the console's hardware wasn't pushed to the limits like it is with newer titles. So it was quieter then. Even now, if you properly take care of the console (clean it, replace the thermal paste with high quality paste, and replace the thermal pads) it doesn't get too loud.
Could we all please stop arguing about consoles!!! If you prefer Playstation 4 then play that! If you prefer Xbox One then play that! If you prefer PC then play that! If you prefer Wii U then play that! I mean, for heaven's sake guys! Don't any of you have anything better to do than argue about which ones are superior?
I got to hold the PS4 controller in my hand today at Bestbuy and let me tell you, it feels good. One thing that shocked me was that it felt that the back triggers were default for shooters instead of the front ones. It was very nice
I didn't think after all of that, that they would give it an actual score. Consoles evolve over time unlike games. Not a smart choice imo but great review.
Victor a game will always be virtually the same where as a console can go thru huge changes thats why its too early to give it a review with a score id say at least til both consoles have updates fixing the simple things and add the extras that they said they would in the future
Of course a console can go through huge changes, but so can games. Take a game like Warframe. It is COMPLETELY different from what it originally started out as. The only thing that's the same, is running and shooting. And when you say a game remains virtually the same, in a way, a console does too. They always play games, in a unique way specific to that console. I agree with you that reviewing a console once during launch is a mistake, but I do not agree that it should be reviewed only after the cycle. It should be reviewed annually, its new software, library, OS features, peripherals, and anything else new can be taken into account in the review. Explain the flaw in this idea, and then maybe you can persuade me.
From what i understand, you get free games every month with ps plus for 10 bucks And Xbox 360 (i don't know about xbone) has always had this without any benefits, so in that regard i guess the ps4 wins?
***** Borderlands 2 and Dead Space 3 are on PS3 you stupid fuck, check out the PS4 library, those games just make me want to throw up of how mediocre they are.
***** Those benefits only apply if you own both consoles, I don't care about old games I want new good games on the PS4. If I'm forced to pay for PLUS on PS4 I should get decent titles. And it's retarded they basically rent you the games, if you stop paying they are over, what the fuck is that? That's stupid as fuck, but you're just an obvious fan boy.
Could we all please stop arguing about consoles!!! If you prefer Playstation 4 then play that! If you prefer Xbox One then play that! If you prefer PC then play that! If you prefer Wii U then you really need to rethink your gaming.
Am I the only one who thinks consoles should get their final judgements after it's cycle? You can give a console a 10 now, but no fucking games could release for it in the next 5 years making it useless. You could give a console a 5, but the most amazing games could release on it in the next 5 years, making it an awesome console. IMO judging a whole console on it's first few days is just plain stupid. That's why also the PS4 vs XB1 should be thrown out of the window, because nobody knows what games will be available on both in 5 years.
The reviews are helpful for people who haven't decided what they want yet. The review points out the good and bad parts of the console, and people choosing can decide based on that.
I agree, if you were to judge PS3 and 360 months after their launch they did terribly. PS3 had a huge game drought for 3 years because of its cell architecture. Xbox 360 had a huge failure rate, PS3 had a minor failure rate. By the end of the gen. things completely switched. PS3 actually had numerous exclusives titles and 360 had maybe 3 or 4 notable ones. 360 did have better looking multiplats though. Its WAY too early to start reviewing PS4 or XB1.
What? No? I thinks it's perfectly fine to review how a console did at launch. However, I believe the solution is not to wait until the end of the cycle, but to do a yearly review of the consoles.
The PS4 is an amazing console. It’s still extremely relevant even after the release of the PS5. First of all, it’s been hard for anyone to even get a PS5, so most people are still playing PS4. Secondly, I work at GameStop, and about half of our customers buy PlayStation 4 consoles, games, and accessories. That’s a lot of customers when you consider that we also sell Xbox and Nintendo products as well. Now is a great time for anybody that missed out on the PS4 to finally get one and catch up on a lot of great games you may have missed!
+Bomb Voyage I advise you buy a Wii u. I have both a wii u and a ps4, and now I think my ps4 was a HUGE waste of money. I only have 2 games for it, but they're so awesome, I could last a lifetime on them alone. Smash bros and Mario kart 8 are the games I speak of. As for ps4, despite Minecraft being my second favorite game of all time, I loved the PC version of Minecraft better, as the ps4 downgraded it a lot, and the ps4 controller isn't a good choice for it. And, if you don't feel like playing games on a tablet-like gamepad, the Wii U pro controller is similar to an Xbox 360 controller. Get the Wii U. You will not be disappointed (unless you're a Sony fanboy that thinks CoD is better than anything).
+Donovan Tull I agree. If you guys wanna try something different look into the Wii U. It's a fun party game experience. If you have a lot of friends over you'll love it. However if you're playing alone it may not be too fun.
Console reviews should take 5-7 Years. All we have are Launch Titles and the "GOOD" games are yet to come. Games and Plain and Simple Fun defines the Consoles. Do you guys want these Launch Titles to Represent our Boxes? No, because we're JUST starting this Generation of Consoles. I expect a "FINAL" Review Near it's end of it's cycle.
A review is supposed to inform people on whether something is worth their money or not. It is also used to explain initial reactions to a product. That won't be needed in 5 to 7 years.
Just a correction: At 7:00 he says you have to be online to play games downloaded digitally. This is false, you can play any game offline (multiplayer aside of course). I'm not sure how that slipped through.
Good catch. According to Scott, it's an issue with logging in to multiple systems and designating yours as "Primary." Because he had been using multiple systems this issue came up, but for the most part it wouldn't affect most people. He's adding a correction.
I think the con's that ign listed on this video should not have taken the score down by 1.8 points. Those should be simple software updates to fix so that should not be that big of a deal. I think this console deserves a 9/10 not an 8.2
IGN REWIEMS: PS4: 8.2 WII U:8 X1:7:8 I understand why :ps4 :great console ,best graphics,no need bateries to controler,great exclusives,SHARE PLAY,make videos without camera,FREE GAMES, GOOD GAMEPLAY. PS4 WII U:BEST EXCLUSIVES,WORST GRAPHICS,RELEASE 1 YEAR EARLIER ,GREAT CONTROLER(A tablet){you can play angry birds?},Super Mario ,,TOO SECURED. X1:IT'S NOT A CONSOLE , A COMPUTER ?NO ,HMM A RADIO? NO. A SMART TV?YES.LESS EXCLUSIVES THEN OTHER CONSOLES.THE PRICE.
The Wii u has games that fit the Wii u what u mean by that is games like Mario and Smash work better and look great with the Wii u but games that have non animated people don't look as good as Mario games
ahahah ya know pc are pity poor " wait for digital indie steam sale crap and console ports 3 years later(gtaV)" console is masterclass great fun gamers.
klaudkil Hmm... 60FPS or 1080P? Can you go up to 4K if you're that dedicated? Can you constantly speed up your console, filthy peasant? Does PC have to pay for online, filthy peasant? Does console have discounts daily unless you buy their membership? Nope. Sorry, you potato farmer, I can't take you seriously.
There should be an option to turn off the light of the controller, I'm pretty sure that's one of the things wasting more battery and I really don't care about it at all
I like how PS4 left room for improvement in terms of looks for there Dash and adding more Apps,Settings etc or else it would be boring to see the same thing for years. Knowing Sony if we ask i think we will recieve and i cant wait to see what they will do with the PS4 not only in terms of games but in terms of improvement of looks, LOTS of potential to be still shown and given. Loving the fact that i have my PS4 and enjoying its speed and capabilites. People who say "Im bored of my PS4, there is no games" are people who dont have patience and only buy a console based on its Launch instead of what the Console's message is and what the Company wants for it. Those people are also the SAME people who say "So glad i got a PS4 at launch!" when an award winning exclusive comes out...smh. Look at whats coming in 2014..hell couple of MONTHS!..be patient people, waiting for the Xbox one review aswell as a walkthrough..THIS GEN IS GOING TO BE BEAST!
So far I am getting Black Flag and BF4 for my PS4 and I am happy with that. I look forward to the coming years when I finally get my hands on games like The Order: 1886, Star Wars: Battlefront, Kingdom Hearts III, future Assassin's Creed games, the new upcoming Uncharted game and many more :D
Me too man, Can't wait to see what Xbox one has in terms of new exclusive IP's though. The competition is heating up good and i cant get enough of it. Don't see why people fight when just seeing at how Xbox and PS fight with each other can be so interesting! its a great time to be a Gamer i tell ya. Only problem i have is what Xbox one what can they add in terms of dash when everything is already there ready for you! i love it because they REALLY did well for launch quality and quantity as the PS4 gave you what you need and said "Hey this is to start out with, there will be more coming". Updates may be a hassle for some but if they are MAJOR updates in terms of look etc, then it can be soo exciting and cool! thats why i loved how the PS4 left room for improvment! leaves rooms for MANY ideas and gets you excited for the future of PS4!. I really hope Xbox one has secret weapons to launch at Sony but so far Xbox one is doing SUPERB for its launch quality. PS4 gives me that PS2 vibe..loving it.
Shownon console wars is what sells the systems, when Microsoft and Sony fight they sell more systems so it benefits both of them. so console wars aren't going anywhere.
Here's an honest unbiased review for you guys coming from an owner. I think the review was pretty fair listening to him. I honestly would give it an 8.8 from my personal experience with mines. The interface is amazingly faster than the ps3, a lot smoother and seemless transition from game to dashboard. Neatly organized and easy to navigate. Playing games while they are updating is amazing. PSN feels more alive than ever with free mics with every counsel (even though their dirt cheap, I use my ipod headphones) and cross party chat was long overdue and welcomed. The biggest negative for me would have to be the launch line up. Playing games that I already played on the ps3 got old fast, I fault myself for not waiting though. Backwards compatability would've been tremendous, as I havent played Arkham Origins yet and no longer have my ps3, and the lack of customization for the dashboard leaves me with a sense of non control. (I had a Lakers theme for my ps3 dashboard which was awesome.) While im sure all of these things will be fixed sooner than later, not having them immediately out the box did spoil a little bit of an over amazingly woonderful experience.
I think PS4 will outsell the xbox one, because its cheaper and came out first, to be honest they arent THAT different from each other, just ones mre powerful then the other,
The only thing I didn't like about the review was when talking about remote play. Now don't get me wrong, in getting a ps4 and vita as soon as my wallet lets me but you said the remote play was a "distinct and exclusive feature". I've been able to do this with my Wii u for over a year. You should have at least mentioned our and not said it was distinct. Yeah, it might not have as much of a distance radius but it actually gets the image faster than the TV if you slow it down enough which is the opposite of lag. Overall, it was a good review and I'm looking forward to getting my second 8th gen console next year:)
Prmtyme You're not getting it. Remote play is more robust than the second screen experience on Wii U. The Wii U controller must have line of sight with the console for the feature to work, so you can't go and play Mario on your controller in your bedroom while the console is running in the living room, it just won't work. The remote play feature however, can work in any room and hopefully in the future anywhere you can sync your Vita with your PS4 over the internet. The Vita doesn't need to maintain line of sight for remote play to work. That to me, is a system selling point right there.
Caped Crusader I usually only have to charge my controllers on the PS3 once every week. It could also be the age of your controller since rechargeable batteries can lack in quality over time
is a 9/10 for me, great console, comfortable controllers, nice interface, great exclusives, but slow connection at times and noise make some noise. ps2 will be always the best.
Yeah they really need to sort out the battery...luckily for me I have multiple controls and a charging station so it doesn't affect me. But I can see it being a problem for many people. Other than that, Sony, you did a great job on your console :) Sleek, seamless, and let's not forget those 2014 games coming our way :D
The only thing I personally like better about the Xbone is the controller battery life. I'm not really interested in any of their first party games but I'm just saying this out of personal preference. I got a PS4 for the price, PS+ service and first party games
The majority of people I know, including xbox 360 owners, are all jumping ship to playstation. The main thing I love them for is PS+ and their 1st party games (Infamous, uncharted etc) but yeah also the ps4 runs games better and it has been rumoured that we might see a ps1/ ps2 emulator for the ps4 :D
The cons are hilarious, they're almost complements. Things that will get patch later for sure. I take that back because the Sonys drones refuse to complain.
Guys which one should I get the ps 4 or the Xbox one To me the Xbox one has more exclusives but the ps4 is a little bit more powerful but the xbox one games r very good (titan fall,dead rising 3,etc.) But I'm not sure if I wanna get a console just to play a few games. PLZ HELP (NO FANBOYS ALLOWED AND BE HONEST):-)
Get a PS4 man. Both consoles are lacking in games so which one's you will like is ultimately up to you, but when almost every single multiplatform game will run noticeably better on the PS4 it just makes sense to get one. Plus with its huge popularity it is likely to get a ton more exclusives in the next couple of years.
OK. Ill say this. It depends on what games u are planning on playing. Just look at which eclusives suits you the most. I choose a xbox one since i am a fan of halo, gears of war and alan wake
Both of them are good but overall it depends on the elusive games, the PS4 has: The Last Of Us Remastered, Knack, Infamous Second Son. Little Big Planet 3, No Man Sky, The Order 1886, Drive Club, Uncharted 4 A Thief's End and more Xbox One has: Crackdown 3, Forza Horizon 2, Quantum Break, Halo 5: Guardians, The Master Chief Collection, Sunset Overdrive, Titanfall, Dead Rising 3, Forza 5, Killer Instinct and more.
I got mine recently, you just have to wait a year of so to get one so all the madness calms down and they have more in stock than they have ever sold :p
Damn. I'm still actively using my Wii U, but my PS4 has been collecting dust for months now and will probably continue to do so until Bloodborne comes out. But Wii U has no games, right?
remote play is damn awesome, the UI is way better and the overall possibilities are great. (e.g play while downloading (even the game you download) and alot of other multi-task things)
In the Xbone Review the guy said that if u want just good gaming go with ps4........ if u want a cable box to watch tv, stick with Xbone..... I totally agree and i want gaming so PS4 For The Win!
Seems better than the XBOX, I've always been am XBOX guy, but this is hard to argue against. It looks like I'm going to have a funeral for my days of XBOX, and turn it all around. It's the end of an era my friend, you will be missed.

Great review! Its my birthday soon and my mum/mom said she would get me one my birthday is on the 22nd of june you're review is great thank you to my mum and you to!
Tristan Franklin are you dumb? i'm saying that the ps4 is so good they will be selling as much as the ps2 back in that generation obviously the ps4 is better.
do you have to load the game from the disc to the hard drive like xbox one. so meaning that 500 gb could mean only being able to load 5 or so games. or can you play direct from disk like ps3
Ps4 is for hardcore gamers and Xbox One is for people who like games but want more than that me myself I own playstation products but that's just my preference.
The Last of Us sold me on PS4 months before launch, no way I'm missing out on future naughty dog titles, also I hope the rumours that sony whisked miyazaki away to work on demons souls 2 are true, how many xbox souls fans would buy PS4 if it were true? Think I'll get an xbone in a couple of years when it has loads of games and maybe a remodel with a few new features and no mandatory kinect purchase. Hope everyone enjoys next gen whichever platform your getting.
The two negatives are because you reviewed a console that has a life of 10 years in 6 days. I have a feeling the Xbox One will be pretty much the same.
Despite the plans of Microsoft and Sony, I doubt that either of these consoles will have sufficient power for a 10-year lifespan, unless Sony and Microsoft really double down on cloud processing, which is going to require faster networks than the majority of people currently have, as well as being always online.
AndRiseUp consoles drive the game market so even if a pc out specs a console the games won't surpass the current console generation.... so yeah if sony and xbox say 10 years it will last 10 years
***** I wouldn't be surprised if his laptop were more powerful than either "next gen" console. I've actually got my eye on a laptop with 12 gigs of ram, that costs only $100 more than an Xbox One. That's not saying I don't see the appeal of consoles, I'm just saying that the purported power of the PS4 and new Xbox are nothing to brag about.
***** That's actually pretty true with most of the PC gamers, i never had a favorite because i always had both consoles and PC. But my good PC broke and i'm only on consoles, and i'm still not sure if i should get a new PC or an Wii U ( I don't have money for a PS4 and i honestly don't like it )
gustavo17pacheco Well, while PC has a huge catalog of PC games to choose from, you're spending less overall on the Wii U, and a slew of excellent exclusives coming for it that won't be anywhere else. If I had the money I'd be going PC over everything else (except Nintendo, gotta have my Mario, Zelda and Smash) , but I think for cost and exclusivity reasons I'd say Wii U for now and save up for a more powerful PC.
I've had the PS4 for almost a year now... And I don't regret buying one AT ALL. It's truly a great platform that whoever is planning to get one I'm sure will enjoy.
Sam Does it include the Ps Camera?
Sam m
Sam im getting one i just have to work for my dad for a while :) im not a fan of my xbox one i might sell it :)
Sam do u still own ur og ps4?
Sam You're missing out. The PC is far better.
Boy, Scott Lowe was dead wrong about the PS4’s fan only rising to a dull hum when it really sounds like a jet engine no matter what model you use
My OG PS4 never got loud, but my PS4 Pro sure did.
My ps4 slim is actually quite quiet tbh
My ps4 slim never made any sound
Early in the generation the console's hardware wasn't pushed to the limits like it is with newer titles. So it was quieter then. Even now, if you properly take care of the console (clean it, replace the thermal paste with high quality paste, and replace the thermal pads) it doesn't get too loud.

A review is supposed to inform people on whether something is worth their money or not. It is also used to explain initial reactions to a product. That won't be needed in 5 to 7 years.
How are you supposed to review and determine which one your getting if you have to wait 5 years.
Victor All that matters is the games, I don't care about anything else.

Just a correction: At 7:00 he says you have to be online to play games downloaded digitally. This is false, you can play any game offline (multiplayer aside of course). I'm not sure how that slipped through.
Good catch. According to Scott, it's an issue with logging in to multiple systems and designating yours as "Primary." Because he had been using multiple systems this issue came up, but for the most part it wouldn't affect most people. He's adding a correction.
IGN Thanks IGN, keep it up guys.
I think the con's that ign listed on this video should not have taken the score down by 1.8 points. Those should be simple software updates to fix so that should not be that big of a deal. I think this console deserves a 9/10 not an 8.2
Since it's a console, they have to be EXTREMELY picky with it, so I can understand where they're coming from
David Anderson still, it's software so the option to patch it is always there. the hardware con makes sense i guess
OK I can see it now.
Had my PS4 since 2015. Works flawlessly. Never given me a problem. Best purchase made. It is my whole media center.
Any noice problem?
Don’t be sad that it ended . be happy that it happened
I'm happy with my ps4 but the controller battery life is a joke
Lol 10 hours
Karl Medas not even
I know it's absolutely ridiculous, and I don't think there's any excuse but as a whole I am very satisfied with my ps4
But I don't see you playing 7 hours straight ^_^
PINK why not, I'll just plug the cable in. Smartass

+Cameron Dickie Xbox fanboy?
The Wii u has games that fit the Wii u what u mean by that is games like Mario and Smash work better and look great with the Wii u but games that have non animated people don't look as good as Mario games
Ghost 3655 matter of opinion but I've set my sights for a PC now.
Ghost 3655 Rlly?You say that Wii U is trash and your profile picture is a mushroom from Mario
LUCAPARAZITUL 12 you can play Mario for PC,he said WII U is trash and for baby's not Mario.
Ps4 is killing this gen.
Its time to move away wiiu and xbox one,The king has returned.
"King" Haaaaa. Peasant compared to PC
ahahah ya know pc are pity poor " wait for digital indie steam sale crap and console ports 3 years later(gtaV)" console is masterclass great fun gamers.
klaudkil Hmm... 60FPS or 1080P? Can you go up to 4K if you're that dedicated? Can you constantly speed up your console, filthy peasant? Does PC have to pay for online, filthy peasant? Does console have discounts daily unless you buy their membership? Nope. Sorry, you potato farmer, I can't take you seriously.
hmmmz let me see what makes games games? GAMEPLAY!!! lets see top 100 best games of all time console vs pc?! Filthy poor pc gamers
Please shut up you filthy peasant potato farmer
I got my ps4 5 years ago 2015-2020 ❤️ this console is my everything 🔥 the games dominate 🔥💯 story telling content 🔥 thanks sony ❤️
Can't wait to see next years lineup of games for this system!
There should be an option to turn off the light of the controller, I'm pretty sure that's one of the things wasting more battery and I really don't care about it at all
I guess you're right, I hope the batteries are ready to get charged a lot :P Because during summer I'll be using 2 controllers per day
I've had my ps4 since launch day way back in 2013 and It is a fantastic system
Finally bought one 😍
Is it worth it??!?!?

Who’s here after getting a ps5???
I like how PS4 left room for improvement in terms of looks for there Dash and adding more Apps,Settings etc or else it would be boring to see the same thing for years. Knowing Sony if we ask i think we will recieve and i cant wait to see what they will do with the PS4 not only in terms of games but in terms of improvement of looks, LOTS of potential to be still shown and given. Loving the fact that i have my PS4 and enjoying its speed and capabilites. People who say "Im bored of my PS4, there is no games" are people who dont have patience and only buy a console based on its Launch instead of what the Console's message is and what the Company wants for it. Those people are also the SAME people who say "So glad i got a PS4 at launch!" when an award winning exclusive comes out...smh. Look at whats coming in 2014..hell couple of MONTHS!..be patient people, waiting for the Xbox one review aswell as a walkthrough..THIS GEN IS GOING TO BE BEAST!
So far I am getting Black Flag and BF4 for my PS4 and I am happy with that. I look forward to the coming years when I finally get my hands on games like The Order: 1886, Star Wars: Battlefront, Kingdom Hearts III, future Assassin's Creed games, the new upcoming Uncharted game and many more :D
idk y people say there are no games theres bf4 ghosts killzone ac4 thats more than enough till next year
Me too man, Can't wait to see what Xbox one has in terms of new exclusive IP's though. The competition is heating up good and i cant get enough of it. Don't see why people fight when just seeing at how Xbox and PS fight with each other can be so interesting! its a great time to be a Gamer i tell ya. Only problem i have is what Xbox one what can they add in terms of dash when everything is already there ready for you! i love it because they REALLY did well for launch quality and quantity as the PS4 gave you what you need and said "Hey this is to start out with, there will be more coming". Updates may be a hassle for some but if they are MAJOR updates in terms of look etc, then it can be soo exciting and cool! thats why i loved how the PS4 left room for improvment! leaves rooms for MANY ideas and gets you excited for the future of PS4!. I really hope Xbox one has secret weapons to launch at Sony but so far Xbox one is doing SUPERB for its launch quality. PS4 gives me that PS2 vibe..loving it.
Shownon console wars is what sells the systems, when Microsoft and Sony fight they sell more systems so it benefits both of them. so console wars aren't going anywhere.
I 200% agree, its the tunnel vision of fanboys that get me lol THOUGH fanboys do play a part in it....sacrifices i guess.
Here's an honest unbiased review for you guys coming from an owner. I think the review was pretty fair listening to him. I honestly would give it an 8.8 from my personal experience with mines. The interface is amazingly faster than the ps3, a lot smoother and seemless transition from game to dashboard. Neatly organized and easy to navigate. Playing games while they are updating is amazing. PSN feels more alive than ever with free mics with every counsel (even though their dirt cheap, I use my ipod headphones) and cross party chat was long overdue and welcomed. The biggest negative for me would have to be the launch line up. Playing games that I already played on the ps3 got old fast, I fault myself for not waiting though. Backwards compatability would've been tremendous, as I havent played Arkham Origins yet and no longer have my ps3, and the lack of customization for the dashboard leaves me with a sense of non control. (I had a Lakers theme for my ps3 dashboard which was awesome.) While im sure all of these things will be fixed sooner than later, not having them immediately out the box did spoil a little bit of an over amazingly woonderful experience.
feel the same way about the lack of ps5 line up and we are 3 years into its life and still very little new content
I think PS4 will outsell the xbox one, because its cheaper and came out first, to be honest they arent THAT different from each other, just ones mre powerful then the other,
Dang 6 years it’s been a while
IGN releases PS5 review
UA-cam:-wanna see PS4 review
True 😂😂😂
The only thing I didn't like about the review was when talking about remote play. Now don't get me wrong, in getting a ps4 and vita as soon as my wallet lets me but you said the remote play was a "distinct and exclusive feature". I've been able to do this with my Wii u for over a year. You should have at least mentioned our and not said it was distinct. Yeah, it might not have as much of a distance radius but it actually gets the image faster than the TV if you slow it down enough which is the opposite of lag. Overall, it was a good review and I'm looking forward to getting my second 8th gen console next year:)
ReneidKlein i know that. There are many differences. They both have strengths and weaknesses but it's how it was worded
You can play AAA titles remotely with your Wii U?
Weaksauceization we dont need to lol we have a contrller that does that for us! no stupid remotte play needed
It is distinct because the 3ds doesn't remote play over wifi for the wii u. Or at least thats the best I can come up with.
Prmtyme You're not getting it. Remote play is more robust than the second screen experience on Wii U. The Wii U controller must have line of sight with the console for the feature to work, so you can't go and play Mario on your controller in your bedroom while the console is running in the living room, it just won't work. The remote play feature however, can work in any room and hopefully in the future anywhere you can sync your Vita with your PS4 over the internet. The Vita doesn't need to maintain line of sight for remote play to work. That to me, is a system selling point right there.
Enjoying my move from xb1 to ps4 XB1 was garbage
Who's here after watching the PS5 review?
Me..The PS4 was rated 8.2, but the PS5 was rated 8😅
@@mostafaashrafhaider7150 I know right, I just realized lol
30 hours of battery life on the ds3? i was lucky to get 3 or 4
Did you charge it when you weren't playing? Cause my controller never died on me.
i usually let it sleep after 10 min i think thanks! i'll do that from now on
Caped Crusader I usually only have to charge my controllers on the PS3 once every week. It could also be the age of your controller since rechargeable batteries can lack in quality over time
SANTA PLEASE HURRY UP
If you guys do add me zRezoh
will do. what games do you play?
The PlayStation buttons: X triangle , Box, circle
X, box, and circle = XBOX 360
Triangle = Illuminati
LeoYT_ Gaming Damnit xbox Don't go stealing names for your console.
Sanoj Shrestha lol
Boom
The PS4 will always be legendary
is a 9/10 for me, great console, comfortable controllers, nice interface, great exclusives, but slow connection at times and noise make some noise. ps2 will be always the best.
Hahaha nice one D:
Yeah they really need to sort out the battery...luckily for me I have multiple controls and a charging station so it doesn't affect me. But I can see it being a problem for many people. Other than that, Sony, you did a great job on your console :) Sleek, seamless, and let's not forget those 2014 games coming our way :D
Sony did do a great job but i think that Microsoft did a better job.
The only thing I personally like better about the Xbone is the controller battery life. I'm not really interested in any of their first party games but I'm just saying this out of personal preference. I got a PS4 for the price, PS+ service and first party games
The majority of people I know, including xbox 360 owners, are all jumping ship to playstation. The main thing I love them for is PS+ and their 1st party games (Infamous, uncharted etc) but yeah also the ps4 runs games better and it has been rumoured that we might see a ps1/ ps2 emulator for the ps4 :D
The cons are hilarious, they're almost complements. Things that will get patch later for sure. I take that back because the Sonys drones refuse to complain.
***** You look like Peter Griffin
Who else revisits launch reviews of the PS4 to try and stay in love with it.. Which isn't difficult at all.
Thats why I'm here
Im sure it will improve over time, but for a launch, it looks ok.

+Trovão from who
Guys which one should I get the ps 4 or the Xbox one
To me the Xbox one has more exclusives but the ps4 is a little bit more powerful but the xbox one games r very good (titan fall,dead rising 3,etc.) But I'm not sure if I wanna get a console just to play a few games. PLZ HELP (NO FANBOYS ALLOWED AND BE HONEST):-)
PS4. Titanfall and Dead rising 3 are being ported over to PC so they're basically not exclusive anymore.
Get a PS4 man.
Both consoles are lacking in games so which one's you will like is ultimately up to you, but when almost every single multiplatform game will run noticeably better on the PS4 it just makes sense to get one.
Plus with its huge popularity it is likely to get a ton more exclusives in the next couple of years.
OK. Ill say this. It depends on what games u are planning on playing. Just look at which eclusives suits you the most. I choose a xbox one since i am a fan of halo, gears of war and alan wake
Both of them are good but overall it depends on the elusive games, the PS4 has: The Last Of Us Remastered, Knack, Infamous Second Son. Little Big Planet 3, No Man Sky, The Order 1886, Drive Club, Uncharted 4 A Thief's End and more
Xbox One has: Crackdown 3, Forza Horizon 2, Quantum Break, Halo 5: Guardians, The Master Chief Collection, Sunset Overdrive, Titanfall, Dead Rising 3, Forza 5, Killer Instinct and more.
i wanna get xbox one but everyone has their own thing
After watching the PS5 Review, seeing things from 7 years ago is so wild!!
I think this review is definitely a bit premature. They should have waited a bit longer to see if things improved noticeably after launch.
Did you pre order the ps5?
Good luck trying to get your hands on 1 of these...they are quite elusive..
About 10 days ago they had quite a few on Amazon. I was able to buy 2, although they went within a few days
Dat Tr'oll when is next shipment
I got mine recently, you just have to wait a year of so to get one so all the madness calms down and they have more in stock than they have ever sold :p
Is it just me or does the ps4 look better than the ps5
PS4 still alive and kicking up dust in 2024 !
Damn. I'm still actively using my Wii U, but my PS4 has been collecting dust for months now and will probably continue to do so until Bloodborne comes out. But Wii U has no games, right?
True dude
Have you tried the new super smash bros? I was thiking of getting it to 3ds
dongledoes LMAO
What does ps4 bring besides advanced hardware
remote play is damn awesome, the UI is way better and the overall possibilities are great. (e.g play while downloading (even the game you download) and alot of other multi-task things)
silencer122 Ok and?
what else do you want? Its a gaming console
You can download while playing on xbox one too. Infact, all your downloads still download even if your console is switched off.
The whole idea of next gen is advanced hardware and software thats all it needs.
Dualshock 4 works on ps3!!!
really ?
zorhis1996 Says so on their support website
that would be cool
Yup, also compatible with pc
Mathias Wilsen is it? how do you connect it?
2:24 who would have guessed the fans’ noise would be one of the console’s biggest weaknesses.
In the Xbone Review the guy said that if u want just good gaming go with ps4........ if u want a cable box to watch tv, stick with Xbone..... I totally agree and i want gaming so PS4 For The Win!
Even with the launch of PS5, PS4 is still the best console ever...
no
@@spark198rus why no?
Seems better than the XBOX, I've always been am XBOX guy, but this is hard to argue against. It looks like I'm going to have a funeral for my days of XBOX, and turn it all around. It's the end of an era my friend, you will be missed.

Great review! Its my birthday soon and my mum/mom said she would get me one my birthday is on the 22nd of june you're review is great thank you to my mum and you to!
can see sony returning the the ps2 era, such a brilliant console just like the ps4 can't wait for the future games to come out.
Aaa no the ps2 was like 20 years ago stop living in the past and the ps4 is 100 times better .
Tristan Franklin are you dumb? i'm saying that the ps4 is so good they will be selling as much as the ps2 back in that generation obviously the ps4 is better.
Well then you should of said it like that ..

do you have to load the game from the disc to the hard drive like xbox one.
so meaning that 500 gb could mean only being able to load 5 or so games. or can you play direct from disk like ps3
Yes
Ps4 is for hardcore gamers and Xbox One is for people who like games but want more than that me myself I own playstation products but that's just my preference.
I rather get ps4 but the home menu for xbox1 is so nice.
get xbox m8

How old are you though, if you're much older or younger than me then there's no point

OMFG... the cons are understandable things. Software is going to get tons of updates, and underused hardware is because games need to envolve more.
SOMEBODY CALL THE WAAAAAMBULANCE!
Who's here to type in a who's here after comment
I'm here to reply who's here to type in a who's here after comment
The negatives are kind of weird, but i guess you have to find something wrong with it.
Oh that comment about the fan being quiet really backfired after a few years haha
Not backward compatible? Yeah, I'll stick with the Wii U. So far it's the best console out there!
The Last of Us sold me on PS4 months before launch, no way I'm missing out on future naughty dog titles, also I hope the rumours that sony whisked miyazaki away to work on demons souls 2 are true, how many xbox souls fans would buy PS4 if it were true? Think I'll get an xbone in a couple of years when it has loads of games and maybe a remodel with a few new features and no mandatory kinect purchase. Hope everyone enjoys next gen whichever platform your getting.
Oh god I can't wait to buy one I'm spending all this summer doing garage sales and dog sitting I want it sooo bad
Who’s here excited about the PS5 launch?!!
look at the dislikes on the xbone reivew and compare them here why cant we be as mature as our counterpart?

CognitiveBarry Will you shut up about pc. Seriously?
Cognitive Barry oh oh low-life alert XD
great review! i am wondering if xbox one will get a better review since it is getting better reviews than the ps4 on most of the sites i have been on
someone here after playstation 5 review?
Me!
The two negatives are because you reviewed a console that has a life of 10 years in 6 days.
I have a feeling the Xbox One will be pretty much the same.
Despite the plans of Microsoft and Sony, I doubt that either of these consoles will have sufficient power for a 10-year lifespan, unless Sony and Microsoft really double down on cloud processing, which is going to require faster networks than the majority of people currently have, as well as being always online.
Yeah. This console generation is NOT going to last 10 years. Lmao. My laptop out specs both consoles.
AndRiseUp consoles drive the game market so even if a pc out specs a console the games won't surpass the current console generation.... so yeah if sony and xbox say 10 years it will last 10 years
***** I wouldn't be surprised if his laptop were more powerful than either "next gen" console. I've actually got my eye on a laptop with 12 gigs of ram, that costs only $100 more than an Xbox One. That's not saying I don't see the appeal of consoles, I'm just saying that the purported power of the PS4 and new Xbox are nothing to brag about.
***** Yeah, it does. 16gb RAM, 4gb AMD 8970m and a 3.8ghz quad core i7 4900mq.
PS4 is obviously better than Xbox One.
In my opinion i like Xbox because i like to do more than gaming and i like how it can connect to my phone and computer:)
You want to have something that does more then gaming you get a PC.
ASCG5000 I have a PC but i still like Xbox for gaming and watching movies.
***** Wow, someones hostile to PCs...
*****
That's actually pretty true with most of the PC gamers, i never had a favorite because i always had both consoles and PC. But my good PC broke and i'm only on consoles, and i'm still not sure if i should get a new PC or an Wii U ( I don't have money for a PS4 and i honestly don't like it )
gustavo17pacheco
Well, while PC has a huge catalog of PC games to choose from, you're spending less overall on the Wii U, and a slew of excellent exclusives coming for it that won't be anywhere else. If I had the money I'd be going PC over everything else (except Nintendo, gotta have my Mario, Zelda and Smash) , but I think for cost and exclusivity reasons I'd say Wii U for now and save up for a more powerful PC.
Whose here after ps5 got revealed?
