Jim – As a guy who is looking to potentially go into the industry indie-first, I have to agree that Sony’s focus on this is very interesting.

David – Not to mention the increased number of actors and AI packages those actors can use, as well as the increased threshold of scripts that can be running at one time.
And I’m very skeptical about saying Used Games Are Still a Thing. I do not remember them mentioning used games once, and there’s been some rumblings that something is up with them and used games even after the presser this week.

Jett – The philosophy shift is the most hopeful part, and probably the most important aspect of, this new console.
Though I really don’t care a lick about any form of touch mumbo-jumbo remote play whatsits.

Daniel – The sharing functionality is interesting, and while I doubt I’ll ever actually use it myself, it will be interesting to see what other people do with it. Can’t remember if they said anything about streaming gameplay, which could also be interesting for those into that sort of thing. (but I don’t really care about that, as I uh…I don’t like watching people stream games. Give me a nice edited LP, not a stream where the player is distracted by the audience. But that’s just me.)
And while the Diablo 3 get is pretty important if they manage to lock up exclusivity or timed exclusivity, I REALLY feel it was in the wrong press event. That’s an E3 thing, and it felt nearly as out of place and wrongheaded as the Square Enix crap.

Martin – I feel the same way. Microsoft needs to come out swinging, and they need to give the console a personality, and they need to hit the networking features hard. We know they won’t be able to pull the exclusives or Indies that Sony can, so to make up for that they need to really impress with everything else. Sony doubled-down on the “core” gamer…dunno if Microsoft will be able to do the same, and I kind of feel like Microsoft might double-down on the casuals with Kinect being a major focus again. Hope not, but maybe they see an opening with WiiU not doing as well, and not being nearly so casual-focused.

So yeah, I think Sony pulled off something I wasn’t expecting them to do at all: manage to take a hard look at itself and admit it screwed up, then fix it, and come out with every bullet point needed to get a gamer salivating. They hit every mark that could cause good buzz, and there wasn’t even a single catastrophe (a thing we’d gotten used to at Sony Pressers.) Dunno, wasn’t expecting to see Sony of all people kicking it, but they managed. Are there vague things we know little about? Yes. Are there tons of things that could go wrong? Yes. Could they hamstring themselves in the future? Oh hell yes. But where they stand now is no longer as the guys who have to prove their worth, they’ve shifted that to Microsoft, and that’s all this event ever needed to do for them.

maybe you should read this link first before judging and comparing the ps4 with wathever pc.

But don’t worry your not the first pc builder who sees himself as a computer engineer.
