neo Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 http://www.techradar...-the-uk-1157925 So £349 for the uk, add in the cost of the eyetoy or whatever they call it and you may have a cost of more than the Xbox One but without the TV overlay thingy lol oh and u can sell/share or give away your games easily on the PS4, microsoft have messed up bigtime.

neo Posted June 11, 2013 Author Posted June 11, 2013 you'll now need to be a PS Plus subscriber to play online multiplayer on the PS4 which finally brings it in line with XBLive. Quote
Wasso Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Can't wait!! Sony once again rock this market!! Quote
Ekona Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Wait, the PS4 doesn't come with the Eyetoy?! Well, that's just silly. You sure? Price is about right for a less-featured unit, and the used games thing makes no odds to me as I don't ever buy used nor sell mine. I do like the way Sony handled the info at their conference though Sadly the Sony-exclusive games don't interest me (Infamous/KZ/FF15), but I can see why people are getting excited over the price.

Stutopia Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Nice change for us Sony fans that a new rig will be very well priced. I'd have probably gone PS4 anyway to continue my purge of Microsoft products. Not arsed about my console adding a layer of @*!# to my TV or monitoring my bodily movement or responding to my voice, my thumbs are still working. Shame PSN won't be free, but I guess it was inevitable. I've never been a Day 1 adopter before, coud well change this year. Quote
cs2000 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 SOLD, PS4 now pre-ordered through Amazon. Was going to get an extra controller, but these are prices at £89.99... Quote
Stutopia Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Nice one. Do you have to pay right now, or sometime vaguely close to the shipping date? Quote
Flex Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 All sounds exciting and I may get one eventually but jeez it's also ugly! Not as ugly as the beta max style of the xbox so still winning Quote
M13KYF Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Nice one. Do you have to pay right now, or sometime vaguely close to the shipping date? Amazon charge on the day of dispatch Quote
cs2000 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Nice one. Do you have to pay right now, or sometime vaguely close to the shipping date? Amazon charge on the day of dispatch Correct, and they don't charge you if you want to cancel the pre-order, and need no deposit either Quote
Wasso Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 That's me putting an order in for the PS4 THE gaming console of the people's choice 1 Quote
neo Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 just thought you'd like to know what the PS4 looks like inside http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/11/ps4-gallery/ the fan seems so small compared to the xbox one's fan ( see xbox one discussion) 1 Quote
neo Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 Judging by the lack of post in this thread i'd guess nearly everyone is getting the xbox one Quote
Wasso Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Mine is ordered and went for the mega pack with extra controller and eye thing. The reason the fan is small, is because they've reduced the size of the power module inside the unit, this needing a smaller fan and the cause of overheating in the original PS3. I wonder what my original 60g fully fledged will be worth, probably not much lol Quote
Harryjax Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Last weekend I was clearing my loft ready for pending house move, and found a box full of consoles that the kids had while they were growing up. There's a commodore Atari PS1 PS2 xbox lots of tangled wires and loads of games. Shall I take it to the tip or move it to the new house. I may even set them up and have a slow gaming session. Quote

Do not take to the tip, repeat do not take to the tip !! Someone will pay money for this stuff !! I have a big collection of old consoles, boxed un boxed, wire, pads and general stuff. Love it all. Love it. I have them all (just the units no wires or pads) on display in a big wall unit. One mans rubbish is another mans treasure !!!! Quote
Suits Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Mine is ordered and went for the mega pack with extra controller and eye thing. Out of interest fella, what sort of price does that command ?? Quote
Ekona Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Pix of your display unit plz matey, sounds cool as Quote
GMballistic Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 The PS4 sounds great but there's no way I'm getting the first gen. Going to wait and see if all goes well for you guinea pigs first. Plus I'd rather spend my cash on the 350 at the moment especially as there are still some good games on there way for the PS3, ...& online is still free. Quote
Wasso Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Mine is ordered and went for the mega pack with extra controller and eye thing. Out of interest fella, what sort of price does that command ?? £434 But then if you do the maths with the package in actually getting either the extra controller or eye thing free. I like free Bought the PS3 full spec on launch as well, still going strong to this day, is it 8 years? Quote
DoogyRev Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 I am gonna get one . . . at £248 . . who wouldn't Quote
Suits Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 £434 Bought the PS3 full spec on launch as well, still going strong to this day, is it 8 years? Yeah, lots of cash isn't it. My Xbox One package is costing me £540 (3 games, nothing free ). Silly, silly, silly money. I think the PS3 is 7 years old man, as it came out a year or so after the Xbox 360, which is 8 years old .

Wasso Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 You're probably right. Its good though that tech has lasted that long considering how fast tech moves. I don't see the PS4 or Xbox One making any leaps and bounds to be honest. But have loved gaming since I was a wee lad. Quote
Leosille Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 the console will come with a warranty so just send it back if any faults, xbox had couriers and they sorted mine out many times didn't cost me a penny. But ps4 it will be from the end of this month. Cod ghosts apparently is going to be running right however. Quote
