Sony’s press conference introduction at E3 showcases the PS4 as not just a piece of hardware but as a whole new system. It seems that Sony doesn’t have their own streaming available so the beginning of the Sony press conference is unavailable at the moment (9:07 PM). Microsoft has their own streaming and Apple had their own streaming, but hey it happens.

From the Engadget’s liveblog page on the Ps4, it seems that people are playing the different games that will be available on the PS4 as the empty seats fill up quickly.

The conference begins (9:16 PM) with an interesting montage of the many games they will feature in their conference accompanied with trance music.

PS VITA

With PS Vita, it features over 150 different games for Vita. With HD graphics and dual analog sticks, Vita allows gamers to game when away from home. 85 more titles will be available for Vita. Titles will include God of War (I and II), Dead Nation, and

Vita will be able to work with the whole PS ecosystem and will be a companion device to the PS4 (9:25 PM).

PS3 Games

PS3 games to be released are The Last of Us, Puppeteer, Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, Gran Tourismo 6, Batman: Arkham Origins, GTA V, along with 300 other titles will be launched within a year.

PS4 Games

PS4 will also possess cloud storage and social networking/sharing capabilities. The PS4 will be a vertical console with a blue stripe that runs through it, dividing it in half. Sony’s next generation entertainment involves Sony Pictures and their music label combined to create a new plan to exclusively allow users original programming and music. Music Unlimited and video unlimited allowing users to rent movies and stream music. The Netflix app, Amazon Instant Video app, and Redbox Instant by Verizon app will allow users access to a variety of movies and TV shows. The Flixster app will also be available later on this year.

A trailer of The Order: 1886 was showcased. Set in the 1800s in White Chapel of England, essentially the game is about the English making contact with an alien force. It will be a PS4 exclusive. Killzone: Shadow Fall, Driveclub, InFamous Second Son, Transistor and Knack will be released either during the release of the Ps4 and throughout 2014.

The Dark Sorcerer (the second part will be continued tomorrow). The demo clip featured a sorcerer with all his fire and brimstone who merely turns out to be no more than a voice actor who is contemplating his goal in life.

PS4 will allow developers to self-publish their own content. Titles such as Octodad: Dadliest Catch, Secret Ponchos, and Galak-Z are some of the indie games that will make their debut through the PS4.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII is now apparently Final Fantasy XV? 

Kingdom Hearts 3 will be the latest installment to the KH franchise.

Assassin’s Creed IV is also the latest installment of the series that involves pirates, the Caribbean, and Blackbeard.

Much-anticipated, Watch Dogs, is every hacker’s dream of a game. Combining a seemingly open-world experience with a feel that GTA normally exudes, the player is able to elude the police, hack cameras throughout the city, and request help from a cell phone. Another game I am thirsty to play, I highly recommend it based on how different it is from all the other games at the moment.

The Elder Scrolls: Online, Mad Max, NBA 2K14 are other titles mentioned to be released.

Destiny is a FPS of a barren world that features multiplayer gameplay, extensive weapon customization, and a sci-fi world that rivals the likes of the worlds of Dune and Star Wars.

The PS4 system will not have any restrictions on used games. Disc-based games will remain using the same system as it does now and it won’t require check-ins online. Live stream will be available and the PlayStation Plus membership will be carried over to PS4. For $5, the PS Plus membership give member access to discontinued games and provides cloud storage.

The PS4 and the Xbox One (revealed earlier today) are two completely different systems that serve separate purposes that benefit the consumer regardless. It has been speculated that Sony viewed their product to be good for 1-4 years while Microsoft’s will be on the terms of 5-10 years. Only time will tell. Sony did not cover much on the accessory that resembled a Kinect sensor (“The Eye”) during the conference and other performance capabilities were not mentioned. Anyhow, we can always refer to the spec sheet.

The PS4 will be available for $399 during this holiday season. You can pre-order it now.
