This new addition to the Sony gaming platform is going to be barrier breaking. A new design to the controller and the console it self. The design of the console it self has not been released yet but it is expected to look sleek and futuristic.What makes this new system better than the rest is the new controller and how it's set up. They took out the standard SELECT and START buttons and replaced then with a new OPTIONS button. They also put in a new SHARE button which lets you share your game play with other people. Also there is a track pad in the center of the controller.
As you can see the controllers look completely different from each other. The PS4 controller is obviously larger compared to the PS3 controller and much more tech savvy. Also the PS4 has a light in the front to identify which player is which. The PS4 also has a headphone jack unlike the PS3.
I personally like the PS4 controllers look, it looks more sleek and futuristic than its downgrade.
It's also said that the PS4 controller has a rubber casing on the back and handles of the controller for a better gaming experience. The PS4 also is better vitally (processors and stuff, helps graphics and sound) are said to be much better than the PS3 in every way.
This video shows some game play from various games coming out when the PS4 arrives. It also shows some game play from the PlayStation Move.
Through all the glitz and glamor this hype can be bad for some. It can effect people physically and mentally in a bad way. Some games can be so addictive that some might not want to eat, shower, exercise, or eat too much junk food while playing. It can also effect the vision, and the muscles from lack of exercise. The ways it can effect some mentally is it effects the way they think, act, and reply. They could become very anti-social. This could also effect families financially because the consumers want more games and more content so they are just throwing cash to Sony. To end on a positive note the release of the PS4 will be a new age for gamers and technology. Also new things can come from this and further expand the technology world.

As you said the negative impacts of the PS4 controller impacts both physically and mentally. As technology grows it's obvious that we will be impacted either mentally or physically because of addiction. Since we're exposed to new technology every day. So is it possible to help with these issues in the future without getting rid of gaming and maintaining both lifestyles?
ReplyDeleteI can strongly relate to the problematic issue of maintaining a strong divide between one's technology and real life. However my story incorporates the consequences of not separating my TV watching from my real life. Just the other day, I was watching a documentary about the 26/11 attacks on Mumbai, India at night. (I'll admit I'm a poor decision maker). When I went to sleep that night, I experienced some tumultuous nightmares (pertaining to the same issue) which caused me to jolt out of bed at 3:00 am in the morning, panting and out of breath. Luckily, I have never played any violent games (e.g Modern Warfare, Black Ops, etc)on play station or any other video game device. I can only imagine how my body and mind would react to that. So, in my opinion, I think that the ability to distinguish between your tech and real life really depends on the person you are. There are many people I know who can easily play a number of violent games or watch violent movies and never let that impact them either mentally or physically while there are others like me who can easily get subjected to the mental/physical consequences of violent tech. To answer your question Abdulla, it is quite possible to maintain both lifestyles by using devices like the Play station 4 in moderation and at appropriate times.
DeleteNow with the new xbox one out now how will the sony Ps4 stand up against it and at the end of their lifespan which will be considered the better console in your opinion? By the way great blog post
