Sony PS4 Announcement

The two rumors that have far-and-away made gamers the angriest in regards to Sony and Microsoft’s next-gen gaming console, have been the one that claimed the new systems would block any used games—effectively preventing you from purchasing used games cheaper, borrowing games from friends, and renting them, while also pretty much instantly putting companies like GameStop and GameFly out of business—and the one that would require you to always be connected to the internet in order to play a game.

With the announcement of the PlayStation 4 last night, Sony has been swarmed with questions as fans and media seek the answers they’ve been dying to get.

Nothing is official yet, but it appears that Sony wants none of the backlash that would come with these two rumors becoming a reality (and by “backlash” I mean “enraged mob with torches and pitchforks.” Do we still use torches and pitchforks? I mean “iPads and carpal tunnel braces”).

Capcom's Deep Down Image

Yet another video from Sony’s PS4 announcement, this one coming from Capcom.

The game is being called Deep Down (a working title), and is built using the new engine currently code named Panta Rhei.

Quantic Dream PS4 Tech Demo

Quantic Dream founder David Cage was on hand at Sony’s PlayStation 4 announcement to talk about the power of the new console. Cage and his company were behind the popular and innovative 2010 game Heavy Rain, and their upcoming title, Beyond: Two Souls, made a huge impact at last summer’s E3 Convention.

First Cage talked about the polygons of previous characters in his games, and how much more will be used for PS4 games—double the amount that went into his Heavy Rain characters. He then showed a very simple but very memorable tech demonstration of what the PS4 can do. The results are stunning, jaw-dropping, and just a tad bit creepy.

Click on over to the other side to see what Quantic Dream is doing with the PS4.
