The next-gen console to SONY is coming afterall. SONY has revealed that PS4 is coming.

Sony's Andrew House said the new console will create "experiences that surpass gamers' wildest expectations."

Lead system architect on the PlayStation 4, Mark Cerny, said "the development of a next-gen platform started about five years ago" and that it's goal is "freeing developers from technological barriers."

Cerny said the platform is "by game creators for game creators" and that its architecture is "like a PC, but supercharged." PS4 uses the X86 CPU and has 8GB of memory and a local hard drive. It uses APU technology and GDDR5 memory, which is typically reserved for "top of the line, high end graphics cards."

Will there be a new controller? Yep there will. SONY has unveiled that too.
And here it is, the new dualshock controller to PS4


It features a share button and headphone jack and interacts with a stereo camera. Share lets players upload videos easily at any time.

So, now the fact that the PS4 is based on x86 architecture, games developer don't need to port a 'console game' from Cell arhitecture to x86 anymore. What I mean, the game developer can create a game for every platform. :D

3D has ended. SONY is not interested anymore with 3D, but PS4 will support 4K-resolution.

Another game has also been confirmed for PS4. The next Battlefield game, BF4. Battlefield 4 will not be futuristic, but it will be set in present time, and it will release in 2014.

And as Microsoft seems to go a similar way according to some rumors we will have only x86 hardware around (except of the Wii U). I think this will really simplify development because you don't have to optimize for completely different architectures anymore. I've heard a lot of people complaining about the complexity of the Cell processors for example. And it is good for AMD to have some new big customers ;)

I have watched it completely live, but what I mean is, we have seen games, the controller and the specs. But what does the PS4 look like? Only missed about 10 minutes of the conference, but that was during the MediaMolecule presentation

Actually the PS3 has 2 256MB sticks. One for the CPU and one for the GPU. The CPU and GPU both have access to both sticks so essentially the PS3 has 512 MBs of RAM. Just like the 360.
