The Internet
is abuzz with rumors that the long-awaited Playstation 4 will finally be
unveiled on February 20 -- a little more than two weeks from now. The
announcement is expected to come months before the new Xbox console is
unveiled, giving the Playstation the lead that Xbox had when it released the
360 ahead of the Playstation 3.
Though few
details have been released about the new Playstation 4, rumors are already
circulating. Here are just 4 reasons why you should be excited about the
Playstation 4:
Faster Processing Speed
Rumors are
inconclusive about the type of processing power and memory the CPU will have,
but some accounts have suggested the new system will have as much as twice the
power and speed of the Playstation 3. Already, the Playstation has a reputation
for excellence and has gained respect as a media center that can do much more
than just play games. We fully expect Sony to build on this reputation by
introducing a console with even more power and more processing speed.
More Intense Graphics
Many of the
games in the Playstation 3 catalogue have gorgeous graphics that sometimes seem
very real. As technology has continued to advance and more gains have been made
in the fields of CGI and game technology, we fully expect the graphics on the
Playstation 4 to be larger-than-life. We can't wait to be amazed by the
stunning graphics that we fully expect to be a part of the Playstation 4.
Next-Gen Games
New game
titles accompany the release of every new gaming system, and we can't wait to
see what amazing games will be released with the Playstation 4. Whether we get
new games in an established series, or we get entirely new titles, we know they
will be sure to push artistic boundaries and create new and amazing game play
experiences.
New Design
There has
been a lot of speculation about the design that the new Playstation 4 will
have, especially the design of its controller. Some reports have suggested that
the new controller will feature a similar design to the Playstation 3 and will
have many of the same abilities, such as motion sensing. However, the new
controller is expected to have tilt correction and vibration. Some have also
speculated that it may add biometric technology like what is featured on the
Kinect or the Wii.
We'll
definitely be waiting anxiously over the next couple of weeks to learn more
details about the expected release. The Playstation 3 has been one of the
most-loved consoles and has a well-deserved reputation for excellence. We can't
wait to see how Sony will top itself with the Playstation 4.
