With that in mind, Sony has now announced its official bundle deals, so you can get such additions for a little less. 33 games Watch Dogs* Ubisoft Montreal The PlayStation 4 will feature WiFi wireless network connectivity (and wired Ethernet), Bluetooth, and two USB 3.0 ports.[18][29] An auxiliary port will also be included for connection to the PlayStation Camera, a motion detection digital camera device first introduced on the PS3.[18] A mono headset, which can be plugged into the DualShock 4, will come bundled with the system.[40] Audio/video output options include HDMI TV and optical S/PDIF audio.[18] The PlayStation 4 does not have an analog audio/video output. The DualShock 4 will be the PlayStation 4s primary controller, retailing at US$59/€59/ processor developed by AMD in cooperation with Sony. It will combine a central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU), as well as other components such as a memory controller and video decoder.[25] The CPU consists of eight x86-64 cores.[25] The system is capable of running at a maximum clock speed of 2.75 GHz.[26][27] The console will contain 8 GB of GDDR5 memory,[18][28] 16 times the amount of RAM found in the PS3 and is expected to give the console considerable longevity.[21][29] It also includes secondary custom chips that handle tasks associated with downloading, uploading, and social gameplay.[30][31] These tasks can be handled seamlessly in the background during gameplay or while the system is in sleep mode.[32] The console also contains an audio module, which can support in-game chat as well as a very large number of audio streams for use in-game. The PS4s read-only optical drive is capable of reading Blu-ray discs at speeds of up to three times that of the PS3s.[29][34] The console will feature a hardware on-the-fly decompression module boosting optical disc reading speed and buffer unread data when a game is not actively accessing the optical drive, forming part of Sonys PlayGo strategy.[33] Like the Playstation 3, the Blu-ray Disc drive should be capable of reading 16-layer 400 GB discs.[35] Although the console will support photos and videos at 4K resolution, the system is not expected to be able to render games beyond 1080p.[36][37] £54.[42] Similar to the DualShock 3, it will connect to the console via Bluetooth 2.1+EDR.[43] The DualShock 3, however, will not be compatible with PS4. The DualShock 4 will be equipped with several new features, including a built-in two-point capacitative touch pad on the front of the controller, which is clickable.[40] The controller will support motion detection via a three-axis gyroscope and three-axis accelerometer and improved vibration.[40][43] It will include a non-removable,[45] rechargeable lithium-ion battery tentatively capable of storing 1000 mAh.[40] The tentative design weighs 210 g (7.4 oz), has dimensions of 162 × 52 × 98 mm (6.4 × 2.0 × 3.9 in), and has a rubber or etched plastic backing to enhance grip.[43][45] The design shown at the Ps4 reveal event was near final.r The controller will feature several output connectors. Its stereo jack (3.5 mm TRRS connector) will support the connection of a headset to allow a user to speak and hear audio simultaneously.[43] A micro-USB port, an extension port, and a mono speaker will also be included. The controller can be charged via micro-USB, a dedicated charging station, or the console (even when the console is off).[The DualShock 4 will feature the following buttons: PS button, SHARE button, OPTIONS button, directional buttons, action buttons (triangle, circle, cross, square), shoulder buttons (R1/L1), triggers (R2/L2), analog stick click buttons (L3/R3) and a touch pad click button.[40] These mark several changes from the DualShock 3 and other previous PlayStation controllers. The START and SELECT buttons have been merged into a single OPTIONS button.[40][45] A dedicated SHARE button will allow players to upload videos from their gameplay experiences.[40] The joysticks and triggers have been redesigned based on developer input.[40] The joysticks now will feature a concave surface.[ DualShock 4 will also feature a light bar that can display different colors. The colors will help identify players and alert them with critical messages such as low health.[40] It also will interact with a camera attachment that perceives movement and depth by using the controllers light bar. It is based on the existing technology used in the PlayStation Move. Existing PlayStation Move controllers will be supported on the PS4.[The PlayStation Camera is a motion sensing input device for the PlayStation 4. It will include two 1280×800px cameras. The lenses will operate with an aperture of f/2.0, with 30 cm focusing distance, and an 85° field of view.[40] The dual camera setup will allow for different modes of operation, depending on the target application.[47] The two cameras can be used together for depth-sensing of objects in its field of vision,[48] akin to the Xbox 360s Kinect peripheral.[49] Alternatively, one of the cameras can be used for generating the video image, with the other used for motion tracking.The PlayStation Camera will also feature a four-channel microphone array,[40] which helps reduce unwanted background noise and may even be used to issue commands.[47] It is tentatively set to be 186 × 27 × 27 mm (7.3 × 1.1 × 1.1 in) (width × height × depth), with a weight of 183 grams (6.5 oz).[40] It will record video in RAW and YUV (uncompressed) formats and will connect with the PlayStation 4 via the consoles auxiliary port.[40] The PlayStation Camera will be released as a separate, add-on accessory,[38] priced at US$59/€49/£44. Remote Play A variety of devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and the PlayStation Vita, can interact with the PlayStation 4 as second screens.[18] Companion devices can also wake the console from sleep mode.[51] The PlayStation Vita can be used for streaming video directly from the console to the handheld, allowing supported games to be played remotely.[52] Sony hopes to make all PS4 games playable on the PlayStation Vita.[18] Developers can add Vita-specific controls for use via Remote Play.[The PlayStation App will allow mobile devices to interact with the PlayStation 4, similar to Xbox SmartGlass.[53][54] It will be available for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets.[18] Gamers can use this application to, for example, purchase PS4 titles while away from home and have them remotely downloaded to the console, watch live streams of other gamers, and view in-game maps while playing games.[18] Software and services[edit] The PlayStation 4 system software screenshot shown at the 2013 meeting The PlayStation 4 runs an operating system called Orbis OS. The current prototypes are based on the FreeBSD operating system.[55] Although the PS4 does not require an Internet connection to function, Sony says the PlayStation 4s feature set is much richer when online.[56] The PlayStation Network (PSN) will allow players to access a variety of cloud-based services from the PlayStation Store including Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited subscription services.[18] Customers can browse titles and stream games via Gaikai to try them out almost instantaneously.[18][57] Online multiplayer access requires a subscription to PlayStation Plus,[58] a policy new to the PlayStation consoles, but free-to-play titles such as DC Universe Online, PlanetSide 2 and Warframe will be playable without a subscription, and asynchronous functions such as online leaderboards can still be accessed.[59] Furthermore, owing to the need to subscribe for online multiplayer, Sony will not allow online passes to be used on the system by any publisher.[60] Sony intends to expand and evolve the services it offers over the PlayStation 4s lifespan.[61] The PlayStation 4 will replace the XrossMediaBar with a new customizable interface titled PlayStation Dynamic Menu.[62][63][64] The user profile for players will show recent activity, their full name, and other details in addition to their unlocked Trophies.[65] The PS4 home screen will feature personalized content from friends.[18] Services from third-party vendors, such as Netflix and Amazon Instant Video, will also be accessible within the new interface.[66] It will be possible to multitask during gameplay, such as opening a web browser while playing a game.[18] Sony is focused on social aspects as a major feature of the PlayStation 4.[61] Although the console will have improved social functionality, the features are optional and can be disabled.[61] Gamers will have the option to use real names with friends, in addition to a nickname in other situations when anonymity is important.[67]The DualShock 4 controller includes a share button, allowing the player to cycle through the last 15 minutes of gameplay to select a screenshot or video clip appropriate for sharing. Media is uploaded seamlessly from the console to other PSN users or social networking sites such as Facebook and YouTube.Ustreams integration within PS4 consoles will put gamers on a new media field. They will have the ability to direct, produce, and star in their own video game production, simply by being an awesome (or not so awesome!) gamer.Gamers can browse live video of titles their friends are playing through the PS4 interface, with cross-game camera and microphone inputs, spectate or assist in their game to help them overcome difficult obstacles, and broadcast live video of ones own gameplay via public services Twitch and Ustream, allowing friends to view and comment on them from other web browsers and devices.[18][68]Sony Computer Entertainment of America chief executive officer Jack Tretton said games for the PlayStation 4 will range in price from US$0.99 to $60.00.[69] Games on the PlayStation 4 will not be region-locked, so games purchased in one region can be played on consoles in all regions.[70] Additionally, gamers can trade, lend, and re-sell their games, as buying a game means it is owned by them forever.[71]Sony hopes to make it easier for independent game developers to develop titles for the PS4.[23] At the 2013 E3 Sony event, the company revealed that they will allow developers to self-publish their titles on the PlayStation Network for the PlayStation 3, 4, and Vita systems.[72] The company further announced at least ten indie titles that will make their console debut on the PlayStation 4 by the end of 2013.[73] In addition to the physical media available at retailers, all PlayStation 4 titles can be purchased online.[74] Additionally, every game can be test played for free.[75] Players can sign into any PS4 console to access their entire digital game library.[76] Sony will not prohibit the trading of disc-based games and will not require the console to periodically check in online to validate game legitimacy The system will feature downloadable content similar to what is available on other PlayStation platforms.PlayGo will allow quicker access to supported games. When a title is selected online, only a portion of the game data has to be transferred to the system before it can be started (e.g. the first level), with the remaining parts downloading during play, reducing waiting time. If users prefer to play their game directly from disc, PS4 will install data to the hard drive during play, eliminating loading times. This is accomplished via the systems secondary processor. Similarly, system updates are downloaded seamlessly in the background without interruption.[79] The PS4 also features technology that attempts to determine trends, including titles a gamer is likely to express interest in next, and then automatically download a small percentage of those games in the background, even in sleep mode, in order to save time.[18] Suspend mode Should the need arise to end a gaming session at short notice, the PS4 will enter a low power state. The game will be suspended instead of terminated, so that when full power is later restored, the player can quickly resume where they left off. This will avert unnecessary loading screens and menu options
