PlayStation 4 Secrets

The PS4 brings along with it next generation gaming with enhanced feedback and sensors for better gaming experiences. It is easier to illustrate these new experiences by giving examples from six game types: an astronaut game; a skydiving game; a regular first person shooter game; a swimming game, and a fighting game, and a dancing game. A game having all elements of the above, would be even better. The motion detection on your four limbs in 3D (two hands, two feet, and your head) allows the game to detect your location, rotation, and force/velocity of movement.

Where have they obtained all this information? They go into extreme detail. Such as the GPU (RSX2) which they claim "based off of the nVidia GeForce GTX 480 graphics processor" a GPU which doesn't even exist. These are predictions surely? Output of 3840x2160p? New TVs then guys :/

This all seems like speculation, I don't think people would be willing to leak sensitive info like this when they could get their asses in jail.

1.5 - Well kudos..
To whomever wrote this article, it must have taken some creativity and elbow grease, however. I couldnt help but notice some errors, maybe typos... Like for instance, in the spec chart, the PS2 could display a 1080i signal, just go check out Gran Turismo 4, the PS2 could be shipped with an HDD and a copy of Linux, for extra of course, second is that the PS3's cell does the audio, so for him to cap it at 7.1 is kind of weird when it's capable of more farther down the line(remember that there is a TSC <Toshiba Super Companion> chip in the PS3, not even being used yet, unless this person is only ounting the standard base package, the HDD is upgradable in the PS3, and gets way faster than SATA 1.5, and I noticed that they didnt list Bluetooth in the PS3. Judging from what I read, the PS4 that this article refers to, wouldnt be out for at least 4 more years, judging by the technology they used. Also I dont understand why Sony would use A DDR interface for memory, when XDR(Rambus)memory has specs that go way ahead of DDR's capabilities already... Just my interpretation...Back to Uncharted.

1.6 - must be a slow news day
this rubbish article, then another "ble ray needs saving"

considering that the ps3 game devs(like those of motorstorm) didnt know the final specs until late in the day, i doubt final ps4 specs have been decided.

and who actually cares, its gonna be more powerful than the ps3, and fix some of the mistakes they made with the ps3 whilst keping some of the key features if not improving on them.

standard, upgradeable hdd's will be there, bluray will be there, blutooth will probably be there, and its gonna be easier for devs to work with, probably keeping a similar basic arcitecture as the ps3, maybe something like multiple cell's or something.

Wow the PS4 has an HVD drive. That's impressive considering that current HVD drives cost over 10,000 dollars and single writable discs are lie 200 bucks. 100gbps? Wow. Considering the main ethernet standard is nowhere near that. Those specs are mere speculation. The PS3 is here for a while.

1.8 - Why is this here?
The Ps3 hasn't even reached it's maximum performance and still has alot for gamers to experience.... So why is anyone talking about the Ps4 yet?

The 360 is moving toward the end of it's time, and the Wii may follow it sometime afterwards. But the Ps3 still has alot of untapped potential yet to be discovered by developers which could lead to some truely amazing games!

I don't get it!

all they need to do is strap a cell2 in there with 3 gigs of RAM and a kick a$$ GPU. That way it will be powerful, wont require such a learning curve, and it keeps the R&D down on the system. Sony sure as sh*t spent too much money this generation but they have also put themselves in a great position next gen.

whatever the case may be, I really hope the PS4 does not come out until 2011... I seriously am not going to fork out for a new machine no matter how good it is. Price are getting too high, especially at these times.

Heck im even contempt to get the PS2 Bond title instead of the PS3 title just to save money so I can get Valkyria Chronicles/ LBP or R2 as well (but also because the PS2 one actually looks like decent fun being entirely third person).

Plus these must be wants or something, cause MGS5 bundle? Honestly, we'll probably see MGS5 by 2010... and HVD? Sort of destroys Sony's whole momentum of going blu ray if you ask me...

though while it seems that all of these are just made up I must admit that someone spent a lot of time trying to make it sound authentic (without sources though).

but then you read this:
'With the PS4 power switch in the off position, turn power switch back on while holding down Eject button. This mode allows you to clean out the dust inside the PS4. '
What the hell? lol, the PS4 has so many uses!

But its a nicely speced machine according to these guys, not that anyone would be able to afford so easily... if ps3 is anything to go by, ppl will moan about the ps4's price if it stays like this.

EDIT:
This is all speculation.. if you go to 'the future' for the PS3 is states how the PS4 should be easy to predict, and gives some of the details from here. They way they write things using words such a s'should' shows how they're merely speculating.

" 1024MB GDDR4" - even by todays standards this would be a joke. Definitelly fake. RAM memory in 3-4 years time will be one of the most important things for gaming machine, more so than processor.

Why GDDR 4? XDR RAM can clock much higher than that and its what they used in the PS3 why backtrack now? XDR is faster than GDDR 4. XDR can run up to 4 Ghz and XDR 2 can run up to 8 Ghz.

Sony should think about enchancing the gaming experience with better graphics and gameplay most of all, but stay true to the roots of their controllers. All this while keeping a good variety of games and a strong PSN that stays free for all.

this is the biggest BS I have ever read, although I do agree that sony should stick with the architecture that the PS3 uses, it would make things easier for Devs to make games. (edit: Im pretty sure that the PS4 will NOT use DDR, they will continue using XDR.)

sony always makes it hard for devs, but they support the format for 7-10 years, so while the initial uptake is hard, the devs get a decade to milk (enhance) their engines for cash. compare that to other consoles that last 3 years, to pc's which are always advancing, are prone to piracy. add to that, new tech needs something to drive its development. in 10 years id expect programming skills to be lightyears ahead of where they otherwise would be (for all formats) if sony hadnt created a complicated acrchitecture and given it a way to be profitable. thats why i dont see the sense in devs like valve refusing to learn new things. they'll be left in the dust.

The main one being Sony dumping Blu-ray for someone else's disc and the fact that that disc drive would cost several thousand by itself.

There is no way games will display at those resolutions with the next consoles, TVs with those resolutions exist but CONSOLE games at that resolution? Can't be. Maybe the following generation.

I'd also bet it'll be 3 or 4gb ram, not 2.

Seems like speculation, some of it seems possible, others are just plain ridiculous, and still others are wishful thinking at best.

I hope sony don't even consider ps4 till near the end of ps3's lifecycle, im already happy with what i have and don't want any better, ps3 is pushing out some great games, anyway with this whole ozone policy coming into effect within the next years i'm betting that there wont be any new super powerful games machines, if the government has its ways we will all have to go back to basics, just imagine a world without tv or games loool. it probably won't happen tho coz companys are too greedy and will bribe the government just u watch..

Coming to a store near you in 2015. Next resolution after 1080P for TV should be 4k resolution.. or so I heard Circuit City hyping it up as "Forget 1080P, 4k is the next big thing" on their site.

Why would Sony dump Blu-ray for a 1x 160Gb HVD discs(16MB/s). Pointless when x8 or x12 Blu-ry drives will be affordable by the time PS4 comes, and with storage size of over 200Gb.

Also 2Gb main ram & 1Gb graphics won't cut it for nexgen. Also I doubt Sony will drop Rambus ram, every Playstation has supported cutting edge ram.

My Guess at PS4 specs:

3x Cell2(16 spe's each chip,46 working spe's 2 spe's disabled for yields) runing at 6 - 8Ghz

3 - 4Gb main Ram(upgradeable)

512Mb for OS(2 Spe reserved for OS)(44 spe for game use)

RSX2 1.5Gb - 2.5Gb(upgradeable)

Blu-ray x8 - x12 support for 200Gb+ discs

Bluetooth 2.0

USB 3.0

2.5 200Gb - 500Gb harddrive(upgradeable)

3D motion control

£450 price tag.

Cell is set to have 32 SPEs or eSPEs in 2010/2011. Not 16. Clock is set to run around the same speed as the previous Cell chip as well not 6-8 Ghz. First Cell run well up to 4.6 Ghz. 2nd one will likely hold the same. It will have between 2-4 PPE cores as well. Who knows how many threads the chip will be able to do. I don't, but its at least 32+ depends on how many per SPE will be done. Its likely that could be 2 per SPE if not 4. So anywhere between 32 threads to 128 threads. Although its likely that if they use the Cell as part GPU some of those will be split up to do GPU work.
http://img411.imageshack.us...

As far as the GPU goes. Sony's original plan for the Cell was for it to be a CPU/GPU chip. Cell 2 might hold enough juice for that to happen. If not alone then they could just add another Chip on the board and have one be the CPU and one be the GPU. Either way the power of it will be amazing.

Disc format = http://www.electronista.com... :P 12x Quad-layer discs that store up to 100 GB per disc. Not 200. The 50 GB discs are dual-layered discs so that is why they have 50 GB. The Quad Layer discs will only hold 100 GB. Either way that is alot and noone has filled a 50 GB disc to the rim yet. Only one I hear of coming close is Kojima with MGS 4.

24 - Dumb!
Lossless 9.1 channel, 1 TB HDD SATA 600 and holographic disk? These guys are idiots. There is no need for another uber disk format because more than likely future consoles will require full installs and come with SSD drives. If they're going to pull specs out of their ass then the PS 4 will be glorified Tivo thanks to cloud computing. The game you're controlling is actually being rendered hundreds of miles away in a server cluster and beamed to you by some insanely fast future information superhighway.

But if you really want to know what PS4 will look like then its best to keep tabs on PC gaming. Basically what the PC gaming is doing today will be on the consoles tomorrow.
