The PA Report - The PlayStation 4 controller is just slightly better than the best thing ever
Suna bineIt felt almost too good, like I was holding something illicit. I was afraid it would be taken away. It felt like the first time I touched a girl’s breast in the backseat of a car with fogged up windows, scared that her parents were going to fling the door open and start yelling at me. I wanted to grab the controller and run. I wanted to nuzzle it against my face and ask it who is a good controller? Who is a good controller?
You’re a good controller, you sexy thing, you.
The triggers are likewise more comfortable, curving slightly inward to hold your finger. The buttons and D-pad likely have some subtle distinctions between the Dual Shock 4 and the previous PlayStation 3 controllers, but I couldn’t tell much of a difference. The controller comes with rumble, standard, so we don’t have to suffer through Sony claiming that force feedback is a “last-gen” feature because it doesn’t want to pay to license it..
Blacklight: Retribution sells the PS4 controller as a shooter's best friend | Polygon
Consoles live and die by the ergonomics of their controllers, and the manner in which developers utilize those controllers for launch titles. That's what Blacklight's aiming to be: a launch title for the PS4, though it may take a few months longer than that to finish the port, Zombie Studios communications manager Collin Moore told Polygon during an E3 2013 demo.
My Blacklight demo marked my first time holding the PlayStation 4's new controller, which I fell in love with instantly. It feels better in the hand, with more responsive buttons and far more manageable triggers than those on the comparatively obtuse DualShock 3. Blacklight on PS4 utilizes that controller extremely well — the PC version of the title has been lauded for its tight shooting mechanics, which have been adapted nicely to the new DualShock.
That's quite fortunate, Moore explained, because a console's early shooters are often responsible for selling the promise of how all games will control on new platforms.
"For ergonomics in the controls; we saw it last generation with Halo, Halo pretty much defined how people held the Xbox with the old Duke controller," Moore said. "Sony's made some really good updates to the DualShock. When we got our hands on it and started playing, we were like, 'Holy crap, I think I've found my new favorite controller.'
"The first-person shooter genre being a genre that a lot of people buy their console for, the genre where you get your 15 million sellers, your 18 million sellers, your Call of Duty and Halo-type games," Moore said. "Those are the games that everyone puts their hands on, and if it doesn't make sense, you'll have a lot of disappointed fans out there. But we've done a lot of research to make sure Blacklight, even though we have different features, that people still feel comfortable in the game. They can pick up and play if they've played a previous game in the first-person genre, and they'll be able to figure it out really quickly and have a great time."
Shooting in Blacklight PS4 felt responsive, even though it used the DualShock's formerly maligned rear triggers. While the DualShock 3's squishy, convex inputs left a lot to be desired on the PS3 shooters which decided to use them for aiming and firing, the PS4's — while still slightly analog — do not disappoint. My demo was single-player, and the bots I was firing at didn't do much in the way of evasive maneuvering; the demo, Zombie explained, was to show E3 attendees what shooting guns on the new console feels like.
There's a lot we haven't seen from Blacklight: Retribution's PS4 port, but if demoing that one mechanic truly was Zombie's goal at E3, it succeeded with flying colors.
The Escapist : Video Galleries : Jimquisition : PS4 - Doing Nothing, Meaning Everything
Sony created a magic moment this past week at E3, declaring for the world that PS4 would not restrict used games or utilize DRM. Power to the people!
Of course, it can be said Sony didn't actually do anything, yet is being lauded as a hero. Does the PlayStation 4 deserve special kudos for maintaining the status quo? Jimquisition thinks so ... kind of. In this case, doing nothing means everything.

Fergal Gara on what PS Plus gets you on PS4 - a better network and cross game chat (finally) | PS4 Features, PS4 News | Official PlayStation Magazine
Confirmare ca PSN va fi imbunanatit o data ce vom incepe sa platim pentru el si ca vom avea "cross game chat"
nu mai tin minte daca a fost postat, dar avem aici ps4 imaginat in diverse culori
Prima varianta arata bestial
Si ultima arata bine! Pacat ca celelalte doua sunt colorate destul de prost... sunt sigur ca Sony le va face mai atragatoare, daca va lansa PS4 in acele culori.Originally Posted by iPaul
Prima varianta arata bestial
Ma enerveaza mereu ca scot variantele colorate ale consolei dupa 1-2 ani de la lansare cand eu deja am consola. Vreau una alba din prima zi.
practic vorbesc despre studiorile first-party si la ce jocuri ar lucra acestea
e bine de stiut ca Stig Asmusen ne pregateste ceva..
First party PS4 games 59,99 News: First-party PS4 game pricing confirmed at $59.99 - ComputerAndVideoGames.com
Deci echipa care a lucrat la GoW: Ascension lucreaza acum la The Order?e bine de stiut ca Stig Asmusen ne pregateste ceva..
Atunci ar fi posibil ca echipa lui Stig sa lucreze la un alt God of War.
De acord cu tudy, white ftw
nope la The Order director este Ru Weerasuriya de la Ready at dawn...Stig se pare ca lucreaza la alt nou IP...
RE: asa se pare..
Deci vor fi 2 jocuri noi de la Santa Monica si ei ajuta in plus si la "The Order" ?
Interesant, dar
Nu tin minte sa fi citit pe undeva, dar se pare ca Move Controller-ele curente vor fi compatibile cu PS4: Good news: Move controllers work on PlayStation 4. Bad news: DualShock 3 doesn’t | GamesBeat .
se stie ceva de trophy suport pt ps4 ?.... eu am gasit asta sper sa fie adevarat...Although Sony didn't confirm if the PS4 would continue to use the Trophy reward system for games, the PS4's user interface reveals otherwise. The updated XMB on the PS4 shows that the console will support trophies. (PS4, Sony)
Interesant, dar
Nu se stie daca merg aimon sau eagle eye?
